Go and Tell Gals

What Go and Tell Gals does

Go and Tell Gals is a privately held, founder-owned Christian women's coaching organization headquartered in Charleston, SC. Founded in 2018 by Jess Connolly — a 13x traditionally published author and founder of Bright City Church — the company equips women in their faith-based callings through a portfolio of paid and free offerings. Core products include the Amplify 12-week online cohort ($2,995), in-person all-day coaching sessions ranging from $2,500 for signature sessions to $5,000 for team coaching, a Coaching Certification program, and the flagship Brave annual conference (general admission $185; Shepherd's Circle $225). Adjacent offerings include the Soul Camp and Book Camp retreats, a Write Now course, a free Leadership Profile Quiz, the "Is This Thing On" masterclass, and Jess Connolly's published books.

The underlying technology stack is intentionally lightweight and built entirely on third-party SaaS rather than proprietary infrastructure: Kajabi delivers course content, Slack hosts the cohort community, Zoom carries live coaching, Flodesk powers the 10,000+ subscriber "Monday Mission" newsletter, and Brushfire handles event ticketing. Differentiation rests on a proprietary 6-Step Coaching Methodology that has been licensed out to a network of 250+ independent coaches operating across life, wellness, ministry, business, counseling, and nonprofit niches — forming a distributed referral and service ecosystem anchored by the founder's brand and theological authority.

Revenue mechanics span one-time program fees, event tickets, book sales, and certification licensing, with all services delivered either virtually or in Charleston, SC. The go-to-market motion is community-led: free content assets and the newsletter list feed the top of funnel, the Brave conference functions as the major annual acquisition event, and the licensed coach network plus Amplify and retreats convert engagement into paid offerings. The company is bootstrapped with no external funding, has nine employees, and remains operationally concentrated around Jess Connolly.
