The coaching team

Coached by people who run ads every day.

No single “guru.” You get a team of specialists — strategy, creative, platform buying, AI automation and student success — each focused on the part of your ad engine they know best.

“Information is everywhere. What’s rare is someone who will look at your account and tell you exactly what to change next.”

Who coaches you

Five roles, one coordinated team

Every member gets access to the full team through live calls, async reviews and the community. Here’s who does what.

Strategy

  • Offer, funnel and economics reviews
  • Cross-platform budget and scaling decisions
  • Graduation reviews and next-90-day plans
Creative

  • Progress check-ins and guarantee tracking

How coaching works

Three ways to get expert feedback

Live group coaching call with screen-shared ad account

Live group coaching

Two live calls every week.

Accelerator and VIP members join two live calls a week for all 12 weeks. Every call is recorded and indexed by topic in the member portal.

  • Strategy & Hot Seat (Tuesdays): short teaching segment, then live reviews of members’ accounts, numbers and roadmaps
  • Creative & Ad Review Lab (Thursdays): hooks, scripts, images, videos and landing pages critiqued in real time
  • Submit questions in advance and get answers even if you can’t attend

Async reviews

Feedback within 24 hours on weekdays.

Between calls, submit ads, campaign builds, landing pages or reports for review. A coach responds within 24 hours on weekdays — usually with a short screen-recorded video walking through your work.

  • Annotated video walkthroughs of your account or creative
  • Written action lists with priorities
  • Routed to the specialist best suited to your question
  • Follow-up questions welcome in the same thread
Private one-on-one strategy session

VIP 1:1 coaching

Private sessions and a done-with-you build.

VIP members get six private 1:1 strategy sessions, direct messaging with their coach and a done-with-you account build where we work alongside you to structure campaigns, tracking and creative tests.

  • 6 private 1:1 strategy sessions across the 12 weeks
  • Done-with-you account build on your primary platform
  • Direct coach messaging for time-sensitive decisions
  • In-person mastermind seat

Coach standards

What we require of every coach

Coaching quality is the product. These are the standards every member of the team is held to.

Active practitioners

Coaches actively plan, launch or manage paid campaigns, so their advice reflects what’s working on the platforms right now.

Vetted on real work

Before coaching, every coach is evaluated on real account audits and creative reviews — not just interviews or credentials.

Trained in our framework

All coaches are trained on the program’s curriculum, scorecard and testing framework, so you get consistent advice from everyone.

Response-time commitments

Async feedback within 24 hours on weekdays. We track response times and quality, and review them every cohort.

Honest, specific feedback

Coaches are expected to be direct and specific. “Looks good” isn’t feedback — every review ends with clear next actions.

Respect and confidentiality

Your accounts, numbers and creative are treated as confidential. Hot-seat reviews are only shared with your consent.

What great feedback looks like

Every review follows the same structure

  1. 01

    Context check

    The coach reviews your roadmap, targets and scorecard first, so feedback is grounded in your goals — not generic best practices.

  2. 02

    Diagnosis

    What the data says: where performance is leaking, which ads are working and why, and what’s likely holding results back.

  3. 03

    Prioritized actions

    Two to five specific changes, ranked by expected impact, with links to the relevant lesson, SOP or prompt.

  4. 04

    Follow-through

    You implement, report back on your scorecard and the coach (or your pod) checks the result on the next call.

Coaching across platforms

Specialists for every channel you run

FAQ

Coaching questions

Will I work with the same coach every time?

Your Lead Ads Strategist owns your roadmap and stays your main point of contact. Specific questions are routed to the specialist best suited to them — for example, a TikTok specialist for TikTok creative.

What if I can’t make the live calls?

All calls are recorded. Submit your questions or work in advance and the coaches will cover them on the call or reply async.

Do coaches log into my ad accounts?

Only if you choose to grant access, which makes reviews faster and more precise. You can also share screenshots, exports or screen recordings instead. VIP done-with-you builds typically use partner access.

Can coaches run my ads for me?

The program is designed to build your skills, not replace them. VIP includes a done-with-you build where we work alongside you, but you remain in control of your accounts.

How is coaching different on Self-Paced?

Self-Paced members join the monthly live Q&A and the community. Weekly calls, ad reviews, async feedback and roadmaps are included in Accelerator and VIP. See pricing.
