Career coaches lack client progress tracking systems

Independent career coaches and small coaching firms struggle to systematically track client progress between sessions, missing opportunities to identify patterns or regression. Existing CRM tools are generic, require extensive manual data entry, and lack career-specific metrics (skill development velocity, interview preparation stages, salary negotiation progress), causing coaches to lose valuable insights and clients to feel their journey isn't being documented.
