Most coaches do not publish prices: these figures come from the ones who do, so treat them as a guide to ask with, not a quote.
5,010 coaches in our directory offer a free consultation first.
A package is several sessions sold together or a done-for-you document such as a resume; a single session sold at a one-time price counts as a session.
Packages vary more than sessions: a few sessions of advice and a done-for-you resume and LinkedIn rewrite are very different products.
