Coaches: how many client sessions per week

How many coaching sessions can you run in a week and still do them well? The answer is personal, but the risk is the same for everyone: if your calendar is open all day, it fills until you're exhausted. With Book, the number of sessions you offer is exactly the number of slots you create, so you decide your week once and your booking page never offers more.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity. A slot only exists where you put it.

Durations and prices are examples: set your own.

Decide how many sessions a day leave you sharp, then multiply by the days you work. If that's four sessions a day on four days, open sixteen session slots a week. Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date, so the pattern stays in place.

Leave time after each session for notes and a break by spacing your slots, for example sessions starting every 1 h 20. The gaps never appear on your page.

Invoicing, preparation, content and prospecting need time too. Keep one morning or afternoon a week free of slots. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars, so you can block it there too.

Limit discovery calls to a few short slots a week, so new prospects don't eat into coaching time.

Book current clients' sessions yourself from your bookings list at their agreed times, and open the remaining slots publicly. First and last name are enough; with their email, the client gets a confirmation with a calendar file. Book doesn't send reminders.

Review your week every month or so. If you're tired, reduce slots; if you have energy and demand, add a day. Changing the pattern takes minutes.

Book doesn't take payments, sell packages, create video links or send reminders. Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field: with associates, create services per coach. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
