How much can you earn? There’s a lot of money to be made but it might take a while to get enough clients; that being said, you can easily make a few thousand dollars a month from online coaching, and even $20,000+ as you develop a big roster of clients
Start-up costs: can be under $100-$200 – you’ll need website hosting, a website, a webinar tool to hold your meetings, and you might need some other equipment like a microphone and headset, depending on what you already have.
