Wow - I just had a quick look and it seems pretty simple and straightforward. I am training to be a coach at the mo' so will keep it on my radar. Thanks for sharing 🌹
I don't think they should. That's not the reason Substack was born. It's a writing platform at its core. But it's nice to have options that can run in tandem with it. 😊
I'm not "advertising" for anyone, just being helpful.
Substack has been a writing platform from day one. I can’t see it ever implementing the robust tools that coaches need to operate. It was never meant to be that.
TY. Just signed up for free account to start. I loved Meet Edgar years ago. Same founder. Excited to consolidate my coaching biz. Thanks for the great tip and helpful advice
Any options where you can just use the GDPR / HIIPA form compliance? I currently have a Substack (newsletter - email list) and Wordpress website and use Acuity as a scheduler, which I like and that can handle payments too, though I do manual invoicing via Stripe. I just feel like I need a way to securely send my intake forms & client notes…
I know it was a long ask 😅 I’ll try and figure it out. I’ve heard of Paperbell and it looks great, but even at the lower end it feels expensive to my own current business needs… But perhaps not, as I’m currently paying about $20 for my scheduler.
Thanks for this great remember. I have Paperbell for some months on my radar. Also their emails are cool to read. Have to take the time finally to commit.
I use Podia and I love them but it’s not free anymore. They recently took away their free option. They have everything in the one spot—website, blog, newsletter & email, courses, products, webinars, community. Their support is good too. But the idea that you don’t pay until you get your first client is EXCELLENT!!
Thank you
Wow, Kristi!
How'd you know?!
This is exactly what I needed, and right when I need it!
Thanks!
I'm gonna vote for you!
(If/when you ever run for anything!) 😘
Ya-ha! 🤪
LOL!!! The universe knows things! Just call me "universe" from now on 😂😂
And thank you...right now you can just give me a vote of confidence. I'll let you know if I run for something bigger in the future!
I was impressed with a trial of Upcoach. I’m not ready to launch into coaching yet. But I’ll seriously consider it when I’m ready.
Looks amazing!
Thank you for this! Looking forward to checking it out. 👀
You’re welcome!! I think I’m actually going to bite the bullet myself and finally do it!😂
Interesting--I'm using Pensight, which is an all in one platform, but still have my Wordpress site. I'm not opposed to letting Wordpress go
Hmmm I've never heard of Pensight. Googling now. It's so interesting how many different platforms are out there and what people prefer using.

You're welcome! And all the best success with your training 😊
Substack should provide something like this on their website.
I don't think they should. That's not the reason Substack was born. It's a writing platform at its core. But it's nice to have options that can run in tandem with it. 😊
Plenty of coaches on this website. You get paid commission for advertising for them right? Well of course that's your response.

Thank you so much. Just joined up and excited to see where it takes me :)
So awesome!! I hope it takes you somewhere faster than my pace lol.

You're welcome, Cara. I didn't know it was the same founder as Meet Edgar. Interesting stuff! Best wishes on your coaching journey 😊
Thank you for this!!

Sorry Linn, I'm not really up to speed or privy to that. I'm not sure!
I know it was a long ask 😅 I’ll try and figure it out. I’ve heard of Paperbell and it looks great, but even at the lower end it feels expensive to my own current business needs… But perhaps not, as I’m currently paying about $20 for my scheduler.
Though I really do like it 😊
Yeah it always costs money to make money! I spend over $100/month to run Unstack Substack with a website, Canva pro, an accounting system, etc.
I wrote a funny post about the cost of doing business last month on my other Substack:

Oh I know it all too well. Sometimes my business costs me more than it pays me 🥴
Thanks for this great remember. I have Paperbell for some months on my radar. Also their emails are cool to read. Have to take the time finally to commit.
Yes they do have great email tutorials. I love all the features they explain in their emails.
I use Podia and I love them but it’s not free anymore. They recently took away their free option.

Hmm I've never checked them out. Heard of it but I assumed it was only for courses, not coaching.
Thanks for the tip!
They’re excellent ✨
Thankyou for this tip Christie, also Attractwell.
you are already 'coaching'😚. even though you may not see it as that. or, it may seem like an 'apparition' that's not apparent 😂.
Haha Biren, thanks for saying that. I suppose I am coaching but just not in the way I'm intending to.
we think ghosts appear after death. maybe we or things appear as ghosts before they birth 😂
