Quick Start Guide to Coaching Legally

Have a quick legal q?
Your answer is inside, in just a few pages.

You don’t have to stress, guess, or Google the legal foundation it takes to transform the lives of others. 

Instead, get your copy of Good Authority. I wrote it just for busy coaches who have a quick legal question about the things coaches do most often: build their lists, work with clients, collect payment, rely on their teams, and build a solid financial future. It's all inside in easy Q&A format. 

s a die-hard fan of coaching myself, I love the process. I love the people. And I love to serve by helping serious (and seriously good) coaches protect their paychecks, secure their content from copycats, and nix nagging legal concerns.
