Online coaching vs in-person: what the data says in 2025
72% of coaches now work with clients outside their home country. Here's how to decide your format and structure it for maximum results. This guide covers the key strategies and considerations in depth.
The core principles
Understanding the fundamentals is essential before diving into tactics. This area of coaching practice is evolving rapidly in 2025, and the coaches seeing the best results are those who stay focused on genuine client impact rather than surface-level marketing.
What actually works
Based on data from coaches across all specialties and experience levels, the strategies that consistently deliver results share a common theme: they prioritise trust and specificity over reach and volume. A coach with 50 highly qualified enquiries is in a better position than one with 500 vague ones.
Getting started
The best first step is always the one you'll actually take. For most coaches, that means completing your profile on a coaching directory, updating your bio to speak directly to your ideal client, and committing to one consistent content or outreach channel.
