Why this blueprint exists
Applications before bookings: Coaches screen for fit—fields for goals, readiness, past experience, and commitment level before scheduling.
Programs have structure: Fields for program type, duration, session frequency, and start date—not just a 'new client' label.
Onboarding sets the tone: A structured onboarding checklist for welcome packet, goal setting, and first session prep.
Coaching intake is different from sales. It's about mutual fit, readiness assessment, and setting up a structured engagement—not just converting a lead.
Most intake forms capture a name and a vague 'what are your goals' field. Coaches need to assess readiness, commitment level, and fit for the specific program before investing time in a discovery call.
Onboarding is also underserved. The gap between 'yes, I want to work with you' and the first session is where expectations get set—or lost. A structured checklist prevents that.
This blueprint covers the full arc from application through screening, discovery, and onboarding—with fields designed for coaching practices, not sales funnels.
