The Career Coaches Podcast
The coaching industry is booming. So why aren’t coaches making more money?
Aug 13, 202657 min
The coaching industry is growing. That doesn’t mean the average coach is making more money. According to the ICF’s 2025 Global Coaching Study, the average U.S. career coach makes about $5,977 per month, and globally, half of all coaches make under $2,500 per month. The opportunity is real, but so is the competition. This week, Adam Broda, Reno Perry, and I break down why talented career coaches get stuck around the industry average and what the coaches who keep growing are doing differently.

Why Great Coaches Stay Invisible (And How Story Changes That)
Jun 30, 20261h 21m
Two coaches have the same skills, the same certifications, and the same price. One gets the client. The other never hears back. The difference isn't qualifications. It's story. That's because storytelling isn't a soft skill. It's a human skill, and for coaches, it's the one that decides who earns trust and who gets passed over. In this live conversation, I'm joined by Stan Miller, founder of Storicate and creator of the 4Ps Storytelling Framework. Together we unpack what actually makes a story land, and how the right one turns your content into clients, makes sales calls feel like help instead of a pitch, and builds the kind of trust that gets people to buy.
Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
