Ep 248 - What It Takes To Get Your First $100K

Life Coach Business Building School with Debbie Shadid

Here’s a secret: building a smaller coaching business might actually bring you more freedom and fulfillment than chasing six or seven figures.

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the truth about what it really takes to create a profitable coaching business—whether you’re aiming for $50K, $100K, or beyond. I’ll explain the difference between a boutique coaching business and scaling to multiple six figures, so you can decide what kind of business truly aligns with your lifestyle and goals.

We’ll dive into the essentials of growing a sustainable business, including how to structure your time, why marketing takes more effort than you might expect, and what to consider when setting your income goals. Plus, I’ll share why so many coaches underestimate the workload that comes with scaling—and why a smaller, well-run coaching business might be the sweet spot you’ve been looking for.

If you want to build a coaching business that supports your life without burning out, this episode is for you. Tune in now and start creating the business that works for you!
