Business Coaches

Welcome Business Coaches!

As a business coach, you are setting your clients up for success by using the software to reinforce all of the good business habits you teach.  

  • Your coach account is completely free for you to use for your own strategic planning and execution related to your coaching business.
  • Add any of your coaching staff or assistants (at no cost) by navigating to Invite Users in the quick action menu in the software.  Let us know if anyone else is a coach so that we can designate them as such so that they can create their own client accounts in the future.

Start to learn the software with:

  • Basics Courses  –  Self-paced tutorials designed to give you a basic understanding of the software and guide you to get started quickly. Each course is 1-2 hours of material.
  • Ask Align – 30 minutes, three days per week to ask the Align Advisors all of your questions.  Join to get your own answers or listen to what others may have questions about!

Create a sandbox account to explore the software on your own!

From your Managed Companies page you can create and access a coach sandbox account. 

The sandbox account is a fully populated account for a hypothetical company that already has a filled out one page strategic plan, critical numbers, established daily and weekly huddles and quarterly priorities that are measured and tracked. 

Add a client

Congrats!  Check out the steps below to get started.

Watch the Adding a Client Account video to the right to see a step by step walk through of the process!

Log in to your coach account and click on your account name in the top right corner to select “Manage Companies” from the drop down menu.

From the Manage Companies page, click the Create a Company button in the bottom right corner.

2 Options depending on Who Pays for the account.

When filling out the new company form, you must first notify us whether you anticipate the client paying for the subscription or whether the account will be activated through a coach master license account. 

OPTION 1: Client Will Pay for the subscription

  • Initial Contact: Once you fill out the new company form, an email will be sent to the main contact you identified at the company to let them know that their coach wants them to learn more about the software.
  • Scheduling: The assigned Align Advisor will work with your client to schedule an introductory demo. You are encouraged to join this demo!
    We would LOVE to hear from you during our efforts to introduce the software to your clients! You are copied on all communication with your client, feel free to reply back to that email to get in touch with your Align Advisor.  You can also always email advisor@aligntoday.com and we will make sure your Align Advisor sees that. 
  • Coach Access/Setup: You will have 21 days of access to this new client account should you wish to do any pre-work in the account while we work to “sell” the client on the software as part of your coaching engagement. We will invite you to the demo and keep you updated on our efforts. Please Note: Your client does NOT have access to the account until they activate their subscription. 

OPTION 2: Coach or Coaching Organization will Pay for the subscription

If you anticipate paying for your client’s subscription through a coach master license, please select this option to create the account. Our coach team will send you a link to activate the account and get you started immediately.

What happens once the account is activated? 

When the account is activated (either through a client subscription or through a coach master license), the client will be assigned a Customer Success Advisor, who will schedule an activation call to start the onboarding process.
