Video Business Coaching: Your Questions Answered
Over the years, I’ve mentioned my video production business coaching in conversations, podcast episodes, and blog posts. As more people reach out with questions about coaching—what it is, how it works, and whether it’s the right fit for them—I realized it made sense to put together a comprehensive guide that answers the most common questions.
If you’ve ever wondered:
✅ What video business coaching actually involves
✅ How it can help you grow your production business
✅ Whether it’s the right fit for you
✅ What results you can expect
Then this post will give you all the answers.
1. How is Your Coaching Different from a Course?
One of the first questions I get is:
"Is this a course? What makes it different?"
My Coaching is NOT a Course.
Courses can be valuable, but most people who buy them never complete them.
Here’s why:
1️⃣ They’re generic – Most courses follow a one-size-fits-all model. They’re not tailored to your specific situation, challenges, or business goals.
2️⃣ There’s no accountability – A course might teach you what to do, but it doesn’t help you actually implement it.
3️⃣ No feedback or real-time adjustments – If you get stuck, confused, or need clarification, you’re on your own.
How My Coaching is Different
✅ Personalized to YOUR business – We work on exactly what you need, not some pre-set curriculum.
✅ Real-time feedback & strategy – You can ask questions and get expert advice tailored to your challenges.
✅ Accountability & implementation – I help you take action, track progress, and adjust strategies as needed.
In short: My coaching isn’t about learning more. It’s about doing more.
2. Do I Have to Commit for a Year?
No.
Many coaching programs lock you into long-term contracts—sometimes 6 or 12 months—before you even know if it’s the right fit.
I don’t do that.
How My Coaching is Different
✅ Month-to-month coaching – Stay as long as it’s valuable to you. No pressure. No obligation.
✅ Results-first approach – I focus on helping you see progress quickly. You’re not just paying for time—you’re paying for results.
✅ You stay because you want to, not because you have to – I earn my clients’ trust every month. If it’s working for you, you continue. If not, you move on—simple as that.
3. Do You Offer a Free Strategy Call?
No.
And here’s why:
Many so-called “free strategy calls” are really just high-pressure sales pitches.
You know the routine:
You get on a call expecting valuable advice.
Instead, they take you through a scripted process designed to "identify your pain points."
Then they push you toward a big-ticket coaching program that requires a high upfront payment.
I hate that approach. It’s manipulative, and it’s not how I do business.
How My Coaching is Different
✅ No high-pressure tactics – I don’t try to “sell” coaching. I explain it clearly, and you decide if it’s right for you.
✅ All the details are public – My coaching process, pricing, and structure are fully transparent. No secrets.
✅ If you have questions, I’m happy to chat – But I respect your time, and I won’t push you into a sale.
4. What Do You Actually Help With?
Some people think coaching is just about motivation or generic business advice. That’s not what I do.
Here’s What I Help With
🎯 Attracting the right clients – So you stop wasting time on low-budget projects.
🎯 Raising prices confidently – So you’re not stuck undercharging for your work.
🎯 Creating predictable income – So you don’t deal with inconsistent cash flow.
🎯 Scaling and hiring a team – So you can free up time and focus on growth.
🎯 Marketing & sales systems – So leads and clients come to you, rather than you chasing them.
🎯 Streamlining operations – So your business runs like a well-oiled machine.
Every coaching session is practical, action-oriented, and designed to solve real problems in your business.
5. Will You Just Tell Me What to Do?
No. Coaching isn’t about giving you a list of tasks.
Most video business owners already know what they should be doing—they just struggle to execute consistently.
That’s where coaching comes in.
How My Coaching is Different
✅ I help you identify the highest-impact actions.
✅ We focus on execution, not just theory.
✅ I share my Frameworks with you that have helped me get good results.
6. How Quickly Will I See Results?
That depends.
If you’re ready to take action, you can start seeing improvements immediately.
Many of my clients have raised their prices, won bigger clients, or streamlined their processes within the first few weeks.
However, long-term business transformation takes time, effort, and consistency.
How My Coaching is Different
✅ We start with quick wins – You’ll see progress fast.
✅ Then we build long-term systems – So your business grows sustainably.
✅ I guide you every step of the way – No guesswork, no wasted effort.
7. Will This Work for Me?
I’ve worked with video production business owners at all levels—from solo freelancers to six-figure businesses.
If you’re willing to:
✔️ Take action
✔️ Implement new strategies
✔️ Step outside your comfort zone
Then, yes, this will work for you.
8. How Do I Know You’re the Right Coach?
That’s a great question.
There are a lot of business coaches out there—many of whom have never actually built a successful business themselves.
I’m not just a coach—I’m a working video production business owner.
Everything I teach comes from real experience, not theory.
How My Coaching is Different
✅ I’ve built and scaled a successful video production company.
✅ I only teach what I’ve personally done and tested.
✅ I don’t make unrealistic promises.
If you resonate with the way I approach business, then I might be the right coach for you. If not, that’s okay too.
