In summary

Problem

When first getting started with online coaching, Margaux used Google Spreadsheets and multiple platforms for programming and client management. She soon realized that the workflow was inefficient and disorganized, making it difficult to manage remote clients across separate platforms. Additionally, organizing and automating payments was a challenge.

Solution

After a friend’s recommendation and a successful 14-day trial, Margaux adopted TrueCoach. The platform provided a centralized place to manage all remote clients, with automated reminders for adding programming and habit tasks. TrueCoach also streamlined and adjusted payment setups, offering an easy-to-use interface for creating programs and uploading coaching tutorials. 

Results

Since implementing TrueCoach, Margaux has seen substantial improvements.  She has saved hours on programming, billing, and check-ins, allowing her to focus on growing her clientele and coaching programs. The platform has enabled Margaux to efficiently manage her remote coaching business while continuing to expand her other ventures. 

Overview

Margaux Alverez has been passionate about sports and fitness her whole life and in 2009 she moved to the Bay Area and began her career as a personal trainer at a local gym. After a brief stint in marketing, she was called back to the fitness space in 2011, becoming a CrossFit coach and competitive athlete. By 2013, she joined the CrossFit Seminar Staff, traveling globally to coach thousands in fitness and nutrition. Balancing her competitive career, she launched a wine business in 2017, merging her love for fitness and wine.

As her competition years waned, Margaux focused on expanding her wine business, which required frequent travel. Despite her busy schedule, her passion for helping others led her back to coaching a few in-person clients. Realizing the limitations of in-person training, she explored remote coaching options to reach more clients while managing her other businesses. In January 2024, she launched her online remote coaching, allowing her to work with clients worldwide and help them achieve their health and fitness goals.

The Problem

Margaux faced several challenges in her coaching business that prompted her to seek a more efficient solution. Initially relying on Google Spreadsheet, she found the setup cumbersome and inefficient, lacking the necessary organization and integration to manage her growing number of remote clients effectively. Administrative tasks such as creating individualized workout plans, tracking client progress, and managing communications consumed an excessive amount of time, detracting from the quality time she could dedicate to her clients and other business ventures. A primary pain point was the need for a centralized platform to manage all aspects of her remote coaching business, including client progress tracking, workout plan updates, and seamless communication. Additionally, Margaux sought to simplify the manual, time-consuming, and error-prone payment process, aiming to create a more professional and organized service that could scale with her growing clientele.

“I have been able to grow my online remote coaching since launching in January 2024 and I’m looking forward to continuing to grow my clientele and coaching programs.“
