How do I get started?

Create a coach account and agree to the Terms of Service during registration. After logging in, set up your workspace and sign the Data Processing Agreement in accordance with GDPR requirements (which defines how personal data is handled). Then configure how you want to work, including your methods and optional scheduling settings.

Next, add your first coachee. Your coachee will automatically receive an email to activate their account and begin the collaboration. From that moment on, you work together in a structured environment where goals, sessions, reflections, and actions are clearly organized.

You can be live within minutes.

What is included in the initial setup?

During setup, you determine how your coaching process is structured. You can fully create your own methods or use a selection of standard methods as a starting point.

You can also optionally activate the scheduling feature. This allows you to define available time slots, including location. Coachees can then book an available time within the slots you provide. This feature is included by default and can easily be turned on or off.

This ensures your workspace reflects your professional approach before inviting clients.

How does the coaching process work within FocusCoachee?

The steps below do not represent a fixed process you must follow. FocusCoachee provides building blocks that you can use at your own discretion as a coach. How you shape your coaching remains entirely your professional choice.

Unlike generic tools such as note-taking apps or project management software, FocusCoachee is specifically designed to support structured coaching journeys with goals, sessions, and progress tracking.

For example, you may choose to begin by exploring personal values together with your coachee. Which values are currently important? What does the coachee want to strengthen or change in work or life? This step is optional but can provide direction when defining goals.

Next, concrete goals can be formulated. For each goal, you can use a scaling question to make the current situation and interim progress visible. This helps make development tangible and measurable.

You add sessions and link relevant methods, reflections, and actions or to-do items to each session. Everything remains connected to the relevant goal, maintaining coherence and direction.

Between sessions, coachees can reflect, update actions, and track their progress. This creates continuity rather than isolated conversations.

FocusCoachee helps prevent scattered notes, loose emails, and unclear progress by bringing everything together in one structured workspace.

By combining goals, scaling questions, sessions, and actions in one environment, development becomes visible and professionally documented.

Can I use my own coaching methods?

Yes. Within FocusCoachee, you fully define your own coaching methods, structure, and approach. You are not bound to fixed formats.

If you prefer, you can start with standard methods and expand your own approach later. The platform supports your way of working rather than prescribing one.

By making structure and progress visible, you create more focus and consistency throughout the journey. This strengthens session quality and supports sustainable development for your coachees.

Who is FocusCoachee for?

FocusCoachee is designed for professional coaches who want to work in a structured way with goals, progress, and reflection. It is particularly suitable for coaches who run structured coaching journeys with recurring sessions and measurable development.

If you mainly conduct one-off conversations without follow-up or structure, FocusCoachee may be less suitable.
