This one made me Google all his books!

Absolutely felt like a learning hug. What I mean by that is Coach Builder by Donald Miller is extremely helpful, detailed, and honest. It even explores information that might challenge your idea of pursuing this career, which is rare in these types of books. The trust level builds as you read more chapters, and as a coach in the health and wellness industry, I truly needed this.

From visionary to practical steps, this book has everything you need coaching career

Donald Miller does it again with a compelling book on growing your coaching business. He takes time to layout the vision of what can be and what it should look like depending on your wants. Everybody starts a business for a different reason. This book is cognizant of that fact. I Am truly delighted how insightful the book really is. To get into the weeds and layout, structure, plans, and next steps for the business.

If you have read his book story brand, the same level of detail and insight has been captured in this book. It is a must read for anybody going into this business. I have been doing it for almost a year and this is added so many other levels That I cannot wait to give back for the information I received.

Great “how to” for a new or growing coach

Donald Miller provides a framework and best practices on how to build and grow a successful coaching practice. The book is easy to read and he provides some additional commentary in between the chapters that are exclusive to the audiobook.

Looking to Coach? This is Your Primer!

After coaching for nearly 15 years, I still learned a TON from this book! The content is presented so logically and clearly. This book should be used by every "coaching teacher" when supporting coaching students.

I’ve been over complicating things

I devoured this book! No surprise here bc just like every other Donald Miller book, it’s SO easy to read/listen to. I’m eager to get started working the steps and while I know it will take work, Don has laid it out to be simple. I feel more confident than ever I can actually build a successful coaching business! THANK YOU!!!

Brilliant. Must listen for anyone looking to coach!

Donald Miller gives clear steps to building a 6-figure coaching business. While this is nothing like his memoir writings, it contains Donald’s whit, clarity, and experience to building a coaching business. Though it is specific to this area of business, it has principles that can apply across the board to small business owners of all types. I highly recommend. Also, the Audible gives you additional content not found in the book!

Fantastic resource

A very practical, step by step guide to building a personal coaching business.

The material and examples are all around small business coaching, so you have to adapt it if that’s not you. And a lot of the material -- especially the final chapter -- is a very thinly veiled sales pitch for Coach Builder certification.

But all that said, it’s really well laid out and a terrific, compact resource.
