There are various ways to pick your pricing. Ideally, you should pick the highest price you can sell for, but pricing is more complex than that. When we talk about money it brings up our money baggage’, there’s a lot of unseen mindset baggage we carry around and the stuff around money is quite nasty when it rears its head.

As coaches, we feel that we’re selling ourselves – like we are the product so this can really play on our minds….

Starting the right coaching business for you, is not the easiest thing to do, especially when it’s your first business or the first time you’re working for yourself. There can be many pitfalls but if you get your foundations right – you’ll be ok.

Build the right coaching practice by exploring your experience and your passions

Let’s start with the main question here – Can you be a coach without certification? Do you really need a qualification to coach or not?

“It depends”

Coaching online is not very easy to regulate. However certain countries will require you to have a qualification to even call yourself a coach or offer services in their country. And admittedly I completely agree with that. But it’s also near impossible to regulate online.

One thing I wish these ‘guru coaches’ said more often is that ‘the best model is the one that fits YOU best’.

But in order to pick the best one for you – you need to know your options.

So here’s a list of the various options available to you to sell coaching services online.
