The coaching industry loves to tell you to stop doing one-on-one work. Scale up. Build leverage. Get out of trading time for money. And they're right. Sort of.

It's about adding a high-value engine to your business that keeps you connected to your market, generates significant revenue, and requires almost no infrastructure. If you've been told…
