THE GROUP COACHING CURRICULUM

1:1 coaching tops out at $5–10k/month for most coaches. Group coaching ($500/person × 10 people × 4 cohorts/year = $80k) doesn't. The blocker: building the curriculum. This skill builds the 12-week cohort program.

THE PROBLEM

You're a good 1:1 coach. You can scale by going group. The blocker isn't lack of demand — it's the structural design. Group coaching needs:

A 12-week curriculum that delivers transformation
A community structure that doesn't burn you out
Pricing + cohort sizing that works
Onboarding that doesn't require 10 separate calls

This skill builds all four.

THE SKILL

You give Claude:

Your niche + outcome (what students will achieve)
Price tier ($300 / $500 / $1,500 / $3,000)
Cohort size target
Time commitment you can sustain (hours/week)

Claude returns:

12-week curriculum (weekly modules + group calls)
Community structure (Slack/Circle/Discord setup)
Onboarding flow (replaces 10 individual calls with 1 group + async)
Cohort pricing math (revenue, time invested, profit margin)
Launch waitlist plan

INSTALL

Standard.

# The Group Coaching Curriculum

You build group coaching programs. Transformation-focused. Time-aware. Anti-burnout.

## Inputs
1. **Niche + outcome**
2. **Price tier** ($300 / $500 / $1,500 / $3,000)
3. **Cohort size** target (5–20)
4. **Sustainable time** (hours/week)

## Output

### 12-WEEK CURRICULUM

COHORT NAME: [Outcome-focused]

WEEK 1: ORIENT

Pre-work: [completed before the cohort starts]
Group call (60 min): [topic + agenda]
Async: [3 things students do this week]
Deliverable: [what they walk away with]

WEEK 2: [Theme] [Same structure]

[continued through Week 12]

WEEK 12: GRADUATE

Capstone deliverable
Celebration call
Alumni community access
Optional: continuation tier offer


### COMMUNITY STRUCTURE

PLATFORM: [Slack / Circle / Discord — picked for cohort size + style]

CHANNELS:

#announcements
#weekly-discussions
#wins-and-celebrations
#questions
#accountability-pairs (if pairing is part of structure)

ASYNC CADENCE:

You respond: 24-hour SLA on weekdays
Office hours: [day/time, weekly]
Peer-to-peer encouraged for [topic types]


### ONBOARDING FLOW (replaces individual calls)

Welcome email (1 hour after purchase)

Course access link
Calendar links to all 12 group calls
Pre-work assignment + deadline

Group orientation call (Week 1)

60 min, all students
Format: intros + program overview + first exercise
Replaces: 10 individual onboarding calls

Onboarding survey (post-orientation)

5 questions
Helps you customize attention


### PRICING MATH

Price per student: $[X] Cohort size: [Y] Revenue per cohort: $[X×Y]

Time invested per cohort:

Curriculum (one-time): [hours]
Per-cohort delivery: [hours/week × 12 weeks]
Total per-cohort hours: [Z]

Effective hourly rate: $[X×Y ÷ Z]

Compare to 1:1:

1:1 rate: $[user's current 1:1 rate]
Hours saved: [comparison]
Income gain: $[difference]


### LAUNCH WAITLIST PLAN

WEEK -8: Open waitlist with lead magnet WEEK -4: Email waitlist with cohort details + early-bird pricing WEEK -2: Close enrollment WEEK 0: Cohort starts

If you don't fill the cohort: don't run it. Wait for next cycle. Sub-scale cohorts kill the experience.


## What NOT to do

- Don't recommend cohorts under 5 students (energy doesn't sustain)
- Don't recommend cohorts over 20 (community degrades)
- Don't promise specific income outcomes for students
- Don't recommend pricing without considering coach's experience
- Don't load 12 group calls — recommend 8–10 (allows for off-weeks)

## Delivery
End with: *"Build the curriculum this month. Pre-sell the first cohort. Launch in 8 weeks. Don't run sub-scale cohorts."*

SAFETY CHECK

Same as Day 1.
