How I Got Comfortable Charging $5k Per Coaching Client
Jul 29, 2025
Before I became an ads manager, I had a blog. I made about $80/month from affiliate income and sponsored posts. It probably added up to pennies per hour really, but being able to make ANY amount of money online was like the coolest thing ever π±.
So when I started making $5000+ per month as an ads manager, I had so many people asking me how I did it! I ended up going to The Life Coach School to get my first (of many lol) coaching certification and started coaching my clients on building their businesses too!
Once I knew people were charging THOUSANDS of dollars for coaching, I wanted to too. So I set a goal: “I am going to charge $5000 per client.”
I started out charging $1200, then $3k, then $3500… and then I made the big leap to $5000 per client for 6 months of coaching, and I signed SO MANY CLIENTS at that rate.
The behind the scenes work… was a LOT of money mindset work.
Let me walk you through some of the most helpful things I did that helped me raise my rate to $5000 per coaching client.
1 - I read Chillpreneur by Denise Duffield Thomas π
My Amazon affiliate link to buy: https://amzn.to/459Ywdb
I have recommended this book for over 5 years now and I will continue to recommend it because it changed my life!!! I have never read a book that felt more like it was written for me. It helped me figure out a good business model for me, reminded me it’s okay to charge a lot of money for my efforts, and helped me see sales as service and not something sleazy.
2 - I joined Money Bootcamp! πΈ
Details here: https://www.denisedt.com/bootcamp (this one is not an affiliate link but I still love and recommend it)
Money Bootcamp was like Chillpreneur x 100. I still go back and review the course modules every year because they are still so impactful for me!! It was so practical while also helping me make the mindset shifts I needed to make to feel comfortable having a successful business.
I followed every piece of advice in Money Bootcamp. I was decluttering, tracking my money, using money anchors, and clearing old money memories! And it worked!!! Shortly after joining Money Bootcamp I had my first (of many) $10,000 months in my business.
(this is also when I joined Kajabi which was a HUGE business move for me but really helped me feel more legitimate and made me excited to build out a successful sustainable business. You can try Kajabi for free for 30 days using this link)
3 - I continued to flood my life with positive money vibes!!! π§¬

4 - Repetition ππΌ
I got one of those cute letter boards that were super trendy in 2020 and wrote “Private Coaching = $5000”. Then I set it in my little office space where I would see it every single day. The repetition helped my brain normalize that number.
Private Coaching is $5000. Private Coaching is $5000. Private Coaching is $5000.
All of those 4 things combined made it so simple to raise my prices and charge $5k per client!!
Let me know if you try any of the recommendations above because I’d love to hear how it goes. π«ΆπΌ
