    Sheryl Plouffe: The Anatomy of a $10K, $25K and $100K Offer

    What's the difference between a $10K, $25K, and $100K coaching offer, and why should every coach have one? Today's episode features Sheryl Plouffe, CEO of ICONMAKER, who joins Marc to break down the anatomy of high ticket offers, explain a results-linked payment model that flips the traditional guarantee on its head, and make the case that coaches should start with high ticket from day one rather than working their way up!

    Brittany Wilson: What a Low-Tech Entrepreneur Learned Building an App in the Agentic Era

    Could AI actually make you a better coach without replacing you?

Do you have something that helps coaches, like a program, a product or a service?

The reason that getting some foundational knowledge of AI matters more right now than jumping on every new tool that comes out. Why AI is a great place to start asking questions but not the place to stop. How you don't have to be an early adopter, but why waiting to educate yourself on AI could cost you more than you think. The ways that Loop Up fills the gap between coaching sessions, helps clients maintain momentum, and creates an evidence stream that makes taking the next step feel less daunting. How Brittany built Loop Up as a self-described low-tech person using AI and why she still treats AI like a brand new intern.
