What's inside

  1. The admin audit

    Count the real hours: scheduling back-and-forth, payment chasing, rebookings, reminders. Most coaches land between 6 and 12 hours a week.

  2. What those hours cost

    Your admin hours × your hourly rate = the number. A simple worksheet to see what unpaid admin costs you every month.

  3. The no-show playbook

    Deposits, cancellation windows and reminder timing that actually change behaviour — with the policy wording already written for you.

  4. Copy-paste scripts

    Word-for-word messages for late cancellations, repeat no-shows and unpaid sessions — polite, firm, and ready to send.

  5. What to automate first

    The right order: reminders, then bookings, then payments — and what each step gives you back.
