They emphasise creating a clear vision of what “success” looks like (lifestyle solopreneur vs. scaling with staff), understanding finances and time constraints, and following a general progression from one-to-one coaching to groups and then scaling. They warn against getting distracted by non-priorities, overspending without a strategy, and growing too quickly, sharing an example of a startup that scaled fast and had to lay off its team. They critique coaching “job” postings that are actually franchises or MLM-like models, urging due diligence, and stress the value of trustworthy mentorship plus expert advice on legal structure and tax efficiency.
