Monetisation & Revenue
Coaching
Also called: one-to-one coaching, consulting
Somebody pays for your attention and your judgement applied to their own situation, usually on a call or a series of them. As an income line it sits at the top of the price ladder: few clients, high price, and every hour billed is an hour worked. That is the whole shape of the thing. The enquiries arrive at all because whoever is asking has already spent hours with you, and the model caps out early because time refuses to scale. Plenty of people who sell it treat it as research, learning the exact problems buyers bring before turning the repeated ones into a course or a product that sells without their diary.
