Coachability's Coach Tiers

All Coachability coaches are categorised into one of three Coach Tiers: Gold, Silver, or Bronze. The only exception is for new coaches, who won’t be assigned a tier until after a full month on the platform or if they've received fewer than 5 enquiries.

What Tier Will I Be In?

To determine a coach's tier, they will be rated on the following four metrics on a scale of 1-4 (1-5 for Client Loyalty Rate): Review Rating Average, Responsiveness Score, Lifetime Conversion and Client Loyalty Rate. Coaches are assigned a Coach Tier based on the total points earned. The points system has been revised to reflect more points for repeat booking rate: 

1. Review Rating Average (Review from clients, scored out of 5)

2. Responsiveness Score (Response time to a client's initial enquiry) 

3. Lifetime Conversion (Enquiries turning into bookings)

4. Client Loyalty Rate (Repeat Booking rate)

Coaches are assigned a Coach Tier based on the total amount of points earned. 

Gold 14 - 17 points 

Silver 9 - 13 points 

Bronze 5 - 8 points or under 

Metrics: 

1. Review Rating Average: 

This metric averages the star rating a coach has received from clients. 

For example: If a coach received two 5-star and two 4-star reviews, the average review rating is 4.5. 

Greater than or equal to 4.5 = 4 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 4 = 3 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 3 = 2 points earned 

Less than 3 = 1 point earned 

2. Responsiveness Score: 

This metric assesses how quickly a coach responds to a client's initial message via the platform. It’s based on the percentage of time within 48 hours it takes a coach to respond. For example: If a coach takes 8 hours to reply to a message, they will have a responsiveness score of 92%. 

Greater than or equal to 90 = 4 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 80 = 3 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 70 = 2 points earned 

Less than 70 = 1 point earned 

3. Lifetime Conversion: 

This metric examines how many clients have paid to work with a coach compared to the number of clients who have contacted the coach through Coachability. For example: If 10 clients have sent a coach a message since joining and the coach received 5 bookings, the coach would have a 50% conversion rate. 

Greater than or equal to 35% = 4 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 30% = 3 points earned 

Greater than 25% = 2 points earned 

Below 25% = 1 point earned 

4. Client Loyalty Rate: 

This metric analyses the clients that a coach has worked with to see how many have completed at least 4 sessions. For example: If a coach worked with 20 athletes in the past year and of those 20, 12 have completed at least 4 sessions with the coach, they would have a 60% client loyalty rate. (1-5 points) 

Greater than or equal to 50% = 5 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 30% = 3 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 25% = 2 points earned 

Greater than or equal to 20% = 1 points earned 

Lower than 20% = 2 points are deducted.
