As a coach, your time is money. You don’t have hours to waste fiddling with tech. You need tools that work—tools that help you attract clients, sell your services, and grow your business without breaking a sweat.
I’ve been in the trenches. I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. And after helping dozens of coaches build profitable online businesses, I’ve nailed down the perfect tech stack.
Here’s the breakdown:
1. Website: WordPress (The Undisputed Champion)
Your website is your digital storefront. It’s where clients find you, trust you, and hire you. And when it comes to building a website, WordPress is the only choice for serious coaches.
Why?
- Full control: No limits on design or functionality.
- Scalability: Start small, grow big. No switching platforms later.
- SEO dominance: Rank higher on Google and get more clients.
Squarespace and Wix might look easy, but they’re dead ends. WordPress is the real deal.
2. Hosting: Cybersoft Hosting (Fast, Reliable, and Affordable)
Your hosting is the foundation of your website. Cheap hosting = slow site = lost clients.
Cybersoft Hosting is my go-to for coaches. Here’s why:
- Blazing speed: Fast-loading sites keep visitors engaged.
- Rock-solid reliability: No crashes, no downtime.
- Great support: Help when you need it, not days later.
Don’t skimp on hosting. A slow site costs you clients.
3. Shop: WooCommerce (Sell Anything, Anytime)
If you’re selling courses, coaching packages, or digital products, WooCommerce is the gold standard.
Why WooCommerce?
- Flexibility: Sell physical products, digital downloads, or subscriptions.
- Integrations: Works seamlessly with your payment processors (more on that below).
- Customization: Tailor your shop to match your brand.
WooCommerce is free, powerful, and built for WordPress. It’s a no-brainer.
4. Payments: Stripe and PayPal (Get Paid Fast)
You want to get paid, right? Stripe and PayPal are the dynamic duo of online payments.
- Stripe: Sleek, professional, and works worldwide.
- PayPal: Trusted by millions. Some clients won’t buy without it.
Together, they cover 99% of your payment needs. No excuses for missed sales.
5. Social Media Content Management: Airtable (Organize Like a Pro)
Posting consistently on social media is non-negotiable. But it doesn’t have to be a headache.
Airtable is my secret weapon for social media content management.
- Plan ahead: Schedule posts weeks (or months) in advance.
- Collaborate: Share content ideas with your team or VA.
- Stay organized: Track what’s posted, what’s working, and what’s not.
Airtable is like a spreadsheet on steroids. It’s simple, powerful, and keeps your social media game strong.
6. Email Automation: MailerLite (Grow Your List, Nurture Your Clients)
Your email list is your most valuable asset. MailerLite makes it easy to grow and nurture that list.
Why MailerLite?
- Affordable: Perfect for coaches on a budget.
- Easy to use: Drag-and-drop automation that actually works.
- Powerful features: Landing pages, pop-ups, and segmentation.
MailerLite is the best bang for your buck in email marketing.
7. Funnels and Membership: ThriveCart (The All-in-One Sales Machine)
If you’re not using funnels, you’re leaving money on the table. ThriveCart is the ultimate tool for coaches who want to sell more with less effort.
Here’s why ThriveCart rocks:
- One-time fee: No monthly subscriptions.
- Built-in upsells: Increase your average order value.
- Membership sites: Create gated content for your clients.
ThriveCart is the Swiss Army knife of sales funnels. It’s a must-have.
