Coaching Central · since 2020

More time for people.

We take care of everything a fitness coaching business needs besides the training itself: website, inquiries, app, payments, contracts and billing. So coaches have time for the people who trust them.

Why coaches work with us

If you coach, you want to look after people. But with every new client, everything else grows too: messages, payments, contracts and tech. That's the part we take off your hands.

We work with trainers, coaches and creators in fitness who run their own coaching program or want to build one.

One team instead of eight providers

Web design, sign-up, app, payment provider, billing, Google, ads and tech support. Otherwise every topic comes with a different contact person. With us, it's one team that knows your coaching.

Good care, even as you grow

Whether it's twenty clients or two hundred: inquiries, customer service and billing have to grow with you. We take care of that, so every single client feels well looked after.

Contacts with a name and a face

You get dedicated contacts who support your coaching from the very first call. When something's urgent, you message people who know you.

Sample day

A perfectly normal day with us

  • Robin

    New inquiry through your website

    Robin replied on WhatsApp

  • Stefan

    A client can't get into the app

    Stefan helped her step by step

  • Lena

    Payment failed

    Lena followed up kindly and sorted it out

    Daniela asked what the reason was

And you? You spent that time with your clients.

What we take care of

Every coaching business is different. That's why we don't sell rigid packages. Coaches pick the building blocks they need and decide on scope and duration themselves.

Website and sign-up

No inquiry gets lost in your DMs anymore. Your own website shows what your coaching offers. A questionnaire lets interested people see up front whether it's right for them.

Inquiries and first calls

Nobody waits days for an answer. We answer questions from interested people and hold the first calls, even while you're training, filming or on vacation.

Coaching app

Your clients have everything in one place. Plans, check-ins and messages run through one app that we choose and set up to fit your coaching. If someone can't log in, we help.

Contracts and payments

You never have to chase anyone from your community for money. We handle contracts, direct debits, cancellations and failed payments. With tact, because there's always a person on the other end.

Customer service

Your clients get help fast. Questions about contracts, payments or tech come to us. Your inbox stays free for your coaching.

Billing

One clear statement instead of many separate payments. Once a month you get an overview of everything that went through. It saves you time and makes things easy for your accountant too.

Marketing and launch

People find your coaching without you having to become an advertising pro. Google, ads and promotions, plus a clear plan for your launch.

Continuous improvement

Your coaching stays good, and your clients are happy to stay. After one, three and six months, we sit down together. What do your clients need, what's missing, what could work better?

How it starts

  1. Getting to know you

    We listen. What are your plans, who are your clients, and what do they need?

  2. Setup

    Website, questionnaire, app and payments. All in your own branding.

  3. Day-to-day operations

    Every day, we take care of everything around your coaching. Your head stays clear for your clients.

Who we are

Coaching Central has been around since 2020, under the name DL Consulting until 2026. We're a permanent, employed team in Germany. Many of us come from sports ourselves: training, nutrition, sports science and sports management.

What we stand for

Anyone who signs up for coaching shares a lot about themselves: their weight, their daily life and often their insecurities too. We handle that with care. These four things apply to every coaching program we support.

Daniel Loidl and Stefan Jankefor the whole team

  • We put our name on it

    Our name is in the legal notice and on the invoice of every coaching program we handle. Anyone with a question can reach us directly.

  • Everyone knows who is looking after them

    From the start, clients know who supports them in the coaching and who is messaging them.

  • Qualified people do the coaching

    Everyone who coaches with us has a degree, a trainer license or vocational training in sports or health.

  • We only promise what coaching can deliver

    In everything we're responsible for, there are no guarantees of a certain number of kilos in a certain time. No crash diets either. Health comes first.

Quick answers

Answers to the questions we get asked most often.

Who is Coaching Central, and who is CCTL?

Coaching Central is a service provider for fitness coaches. Behind it is Coaching Central Technologies Ltd., CCTL for short, based in Cyprus. It signs the contracts and bills the coaching programs we support.

Why is your name in the legal notice or on my invoice?

Because we handle contracts, payments, the app and customer service for this coaching program. That makes us your contractual partner. That's why our name is in the legal notice and on the invoice, as it should be.

Who looks after the clients in the coaching?

We decide that individually with each coach. On request, qualified coaches from our team help with client care, permanently or during vacation and sick leave. You'll know from the start who is looking after you.

What does working with us cost?

That depends on which building blocks you need, how much support you want and for how long. After the first call, you get an offer that fits you.
