Impact Coaching Solutions

What Impact Coaching Solutions does

Impact Coaching Solutions is a privately held, founder-led leadership development and coaching company headquartered in The Woodlands/Houston, Texas, founded in 2011 and operating with 1–10 employees. The company delivers programs in English and Spanish (with Portuguese available for keynotes) and serves three primary customer groups: emerging and current leaders seeking leadership and emotional-intelligence development, aspiring and professional coaches pursuing certification or business growth, and organizations building internal coaching cultures. Its core offerings include a Leadership Development Program, an International Coaching Certification Program, Executive and Team Coaching, and Keynote Presentations, supplemented by time-bound and recurring programs such as the 4-month Executive Coaching Mastery, the 12-month COACH Business Program, the Remote Leader Program, and membership-based Confident Speakers Circle and Coaching Mastery Lab.

The company's technology stack centers on the proprietary CoachMetrix assessment platform and licensed use of the EQ-i 2.0 emotional intelligence assessment system (including Workplace, Leadership, 360, and Group report variants), combined with a proprietary methodology called the Insights Connections and Solutions Model that focuses on communication styles and emotional skills. The FreshBiz Game is used as a business-simulation workshop tool. Programs are delivered via a hybrid of online cohort sessions (using Gamma-hosted pages and Keap CRM) and in-person workshops, with named enterprise clients spanning retail, technology, healthcare, financial services, and nonprofit sectors.

Impact Coaching Solutions generates revenue through professional-services fees for training and speaking engagements and through subscription/recurring components embedded in the COACH Business Program and ongoing executive coaching relationships. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is sales-led, with a content marketing engine (blog, bilingual VideoBlog, free master classes, monthly newsletter) feeding discovery calls and consultations. There is no external funding, no M&A activity, and no disclosed revenue. A minor partnership with EWOP (Empowering Women Out of Prison) extends the brand into social-impact delivery.
