Besides creating and selling dedicated coaching products here on Podia you can also add coaching lessons directly to your online courses! 🎙️

This is a great way to increase the value of your online courses as well as offer 1:1 support for specific sections and lessons.

Coaching lessons are not a product per se. They are lessons that could be added to online course products that will benefit your students in a lot of different ways. It allows students to book a session with you without leaving the product.


How to add coaching lessons to your online courses

  1. In the sidebar menu, click on Products.

  2. From there, click on the Edit button on the far right of your product.

  3. Once the online course editor page opens, click the New lesson dropdown and select the Add coaching button!

  4. Under Booking, you can either embed a booking calendar from one of our supported platforms or link to a custom calendar link. Simply paste the direct link to your booking page.


    We do support embeds from Calendly, SavvyCal, Acuity or YouCanBookMe. If you use a different platform, select Custom calendar link. These will show up as a normal button on the booking page.

  5. Finally, add some instructions you want to appear on your lesson page:


What will my customers see?

As soon as customers access your online course they’ll be able to view your coaching offer from the available lessons within your course.

If you have chosen the Embed booking calendar option, this is what it would look like to your customers:


If you’re using a Custom calendar link we will show a button on your lesson that links to your calendar booking page:


FAQ

Will customers be able to book a session more than once?

Yes, they will. Since this is not a direct integration with these platforms, there is not a way for us to confirm if someone has already booked a session or not.

We advise you to handle any client/booking slot directly with the platform of your choice.
