His claim to fame is ‘the last boss of Jack Dorsey.’ 05:01 – Tony talks about Coach.me which hit 1 million users. 07:16 – Mechanically Coach.me was a success because it was successful in revenue, conversion, and results from the service. 09:10 – Coach.me takes a 50% cut of coaching fees as a revenue source. 10:03 – Digital coaching is when the coaching happens on a messaging based relationship. Coaches can pay a smaller cut to use the tools from Coach.me. 11:18 – In 2014, they grossed 82K$, 2015 they grossed 650K$.
