Editorial angle
Read this book through the CoachGuido standard: what can a new or early-stage coach use to become easier to understand, easier to trust, and better equipped to serve? Pull out the frameworks, questions, or examples that improve pricing, then translate them into plain client-facing language.
Limitations
Use this as business education, not financial advice. Keep any pricing or money discussion grounded in context and avoid implying guaranteed income or return on investment.
