Business Development Designed for Business and Executive Coaches
Quick-Start Intensive
For senior leaders and executive coaches ready to convert years of leadership credibility into consistent, strategic business traction.
Enrollment is open: our next cohort begins Tuesday, April 7, 2025.
Reserve Your Strategy ConversationYou’ve built deep credibility and a strong reputation as a leader and now you want a coaching business that reflects that same authority.
Yet building your coaching business feels different and more complex than anything you’ve led before.
You’re ready to translate your leadership success into a business that sustains your lifestyle and amplifies your legacy.
You’ve led with clarity, yet building a business brings a new kind of complexity, and you’re ready for a clear, focused path forward.
You’re accustomed to momentum and results, so a slower start doesn’t feel aligned with your experience and capability.
You left the intensity of corporate life for freedom and fulfillment; not to recreate long hours in a different context.

- Irresistible Offer Designer – Craft offers that attract premium clients with clarity and confidence.

You were never taught how to build a business that reflects your experience, values, and strengths.
The truth is, even the most accomplished leaders haven’t been taught how to build a business, especially not one that reflects their values, vision, and strengths.
This is why I created the Quick-Start Intensive in 2019: a quarterly system that establishes clarity, focus, and predictable traction. It’s the same framework I used to build a business that aligns with my values and leadership style. Today, coaches are using it to shift from uncertainty to consistent enrollment, from irregular income to dependable revenue, and from scattered efforts to purposeful progress.
And now, hundreds of business and executive coaches are using this framework to move from overthinking to enrolling, from unpredictable income to consistent revenue, and from a quick corporate pace to coaching with ease and intention.
What Experienced Coaches Discover

A Curated Peer Environment
The Quick-Start Intensive brings together experienced executive and business coaches who value clarity, professionalism, and meaningful progress.
This is not a large or open-access group. Participation is intentionally limited to preserve the quality of conversation and support.
In the cohort, you’re in dialogue with peers who:
• understand leadership and responsibility
• are building real coaching businesses
• value integrity over performance
• engage thoughtfully and respectfully
The result is a peer environment that feels grounded, focused, and supportive. For many coaches, this level of peer interaction becomes one of the most valuable aspects of the experience.
QSI is ideal for business and executive coaches who are looking to:
✔ collapse the time it takes to grow an exceptionally successful coaching business
✔ avoid years of trial and error that can lead to slow growth and endless frustration
✔ enjoy the same financial success they had in their corporate life
✔ achieve brilliant results in revenue growth and client enrollment
✔ move past the confusion of how to market their business and create ease and joy
QSI is NOT for coaches who AREN'T willing to:
→ show up 110%
→ expand their learning edge and try new things
→ step out of their comfort zone to create the business they envision
→ do the work
→ be committed to their growth and passionate about their business
Our Commitment to This Experience
We are committed to holding a well-designed, professional container for experienced coaches who take their work seriously.
That means:
• thoughtful preparation and facilitation
• clear frameworks and practical guidance
• a respectful, focused learning environment
• and an experience that values depth over volume
We are equally committed to maintaining the standards of the cohort. Participation is intentional, and the quality of conversation matters.
This work is designed to support clarity, momentum, and steady progress through structure and discernment.
