Get answers to the most common questions about Commit Action and our coaching services.
What exactly is accountability coaching and how does it work?
An accountability coach is like a personal trainer for productivity: Someone who works with you every week to create the clarity, structure and focus. They help you execute consistently on your biggest goals.
The best business coaches also provide a ton of accountability. Without proper accountability, business coaching is just sharing strategy ideas with zero follow through.
Commit Action invented accountability coaching in 2014. Our methodology is evidence-based and was developed in collaboration with cognitive science researchers at Harvard Medical School and NYU (Positive Psychology).

What does an accountability coach do?
An accountability coach helps you stay on track with your goals and commitments.
It’s like hiring someone whose sole job is optimizing your focus, clarifying your priorities and structuring your schedule. They help you move forward on the boldest, best ideas you have… that otherwise tend to get self sabotaged.
The coach typically sets up regular check-ins to review accomplishments, address challenges, and set the path forward.
Particularly for entrepreneurs, success isn’t just about being merely “productive”. It’s about working on the RIGHT things. A great accountability coaching helps prioritize the best, most effective use of your time.

How much does accountability coaching cost?
The cost of an accountability coach can vary widely based on factors such as the coach's experience, the complexity of the client's goals, and the frequency of coaching sessions.
Fees can range from $50 to $500 per session or more. Some coaches might offer packages that bundle several sessions at a discounted rate. When considering the fee, it's crucial to assess the value and outcomes you expect from the coaching relationship along with the skills/experience of the coach.
At Commit Action, our plans start at $199 per month and you get 1-to-1 coaching sessions on the phone every week. Not only that, your accountability coaches are available via text or email throughout the week. We also offer strategic business coaching plans for entrepreneurs, with longer sessions and coaches with more business expertise.

How long are the coaching calls?
The weekly calls are designed to be quick; a "minimum effective dose" of structure and planning. This follows the behavioral science principle that you maximize long term results by making the behavior that drives them easy.
New customers would surely love to spend two hours really diving into our system, planning out their week to a level of outrageous precision. But how many weeks could they feasibly keep that up?
By optimizing for consistency with a tightly focused 20-minute ritual, we've created a proven methodology for incrementally increasing your personal effectiveness… with results that compound over time.
Commit Action customers who keep the ritual going for a year become unrecognizable to their former selves: they transform into execution powerhouses.
Our Business Coaching plans offer 50% longer calls (30 minutes) to get more strategic. Our Elite plans can go anywhere from 60 mins a week and up. The focused 20-minute ritual is best for most people.

Do I need to already have a business to work with you?

What does an accountability coach do?
Here’s a quick note from Commit Action’s CEO, Peter Shallard:
One entrepreneur to another: talking to tire-kicking leads is a bit of an operational nightmare.
We’d rather our coaches talk exclusively to customers, and we just show you how good the coaching is first hand. Otherwise, it’d mean hiring a sales team, paying them out of our coaching fees and charging our customers more.
That’s why we do a no questions asked 30 day guarantee, and built a solid and smooth onboarding process where you get a 60 min call with your coach to start.
It’s literally zero risk to just sign up and get a first hand experience of deep diving into the coaching. Your coach will answer all your questions, and some you didn’t ask! We’re very confident in the skills of our coaches but if it’s not a fit, just cancel your membership (in a few clicks) and request a full refund.
