Your business plan should include startup costs, overhead costs, expenses, and revenue.  Since it is not likely that you will be able to accurately project what your revenue from clients will be, it is acceptable for you to include your pricing fees per client in the business plan.  This will give you a solid idea of what you can expect from prospective clients.

          Once you have a solid business plan you are able to start coaching.  You will have to pay attention to many small details to make sure that your business is successful. This includes:

·        Marketing your coaching business.

·        Information packages, informing potential clients of your services.

·        Pricing information.

·        Follow-up referral services.

          When you are successfully operating your coaching business it is important that you continue to pay close attention to the business details of your business.  It may be easy to get wrapped up in the day-to-day enjoyment of working with your clients, but you must be certain to take care of business.  If you find that you either don’t have the time to spend taking care of business details or that you lack the inclination or expertise, it may be advisable for you to hire someone to take care of this side of your coaching business for you.
