This Coaching Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 12, 2025 (the “Effective Date”), is by and between Meller Marketing LLC (“Coach”) and {client} (“Client” or “You” and together with Coach, the “Parties”, and each a “Party”).
WHEREAS, Coach is in the business of providing coaching services related to LinkedIn Coaching; and
WHEREAS, Client desires to retain Coach to provide said coaching services, and Coach is willing to perform such coaching services under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Coach and Client agree as follows:
Client-Coach Relationship
An effective coaching relationship requires mutual understanding and respect between the Coach and the Client. That requires the parties to agree to some basic tenets of coaching, including:
Coach and Client agree to communicate honestly, to be open to feedback, and to make time and space to participate fully in the coaching sessions called for hereunder. Client specifically agrees to be open to coaching.
By participating in the coaching, you agree to accept personal responsibility for the results of your actions. You agree that the Coach has not made any guarantees about the results of taking any action, whether recommended during any coaching session or not. You recognize that your ultimate success or failure will be the result of your own efforts, your particular situation, and innumerable other circumstances beyond the control and/or knowledge of the Coach.
Services
The parties shall engage in 2 coaching meetings:
- One (1) two-hour coaching call
- One (1) 30-minute "accountability" call
Each will be conducted via Zoom meeting. These coaching meetings must occur within a period of 12 months from the time of this Agreement or they will be forfeited without refund.
Coach shall also provide unlimited email access and LinkedIn messages to the client in between coaching meetings.
Fees
In consideration of the provision of the Services by the Coach, Client shall pay a single payment of $750, which is due and payable on the date this agreement is signed. Payment to Coach of such fees shall constitute payment in full for the performance of the Services. The coaching sessions will begin after the payment is made.
No Refunds
All sales are final, and the Company does not offer any money-back guarantees. You recognize and agree that you shall not be entitled to a refund for any purchase under any circumstances. Should you terminate the Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth in the Termination section below, all unused calls shall be forfeit and non-refundable.
Procedure and Scheduling
Coach and Client will agree to a mutually agreeable time for the coaching meetings, and it will be the Client’s ultimate responsibility to schedule the coaching meetings. Coach will provide instructions for how to access meetings.
Cancellation Policy
You may not cancel an individual coaching session unless you do so at least 8 hours before it is scheduled to begin. Coach reserves the right to treat any meeting that Client misses or attempts to cancel less than 8 hours before it is scheduled to begin as part of the allotted coaching sessions.
Confidentiality
The Coach shall treat the relationship with Client, as well as all information shared by the Client, as confidential. Coach shall not disclose the existence of the relationship or any information shared during the coaching sessions without the Client’s written consent. This means that the Coach will not disclose the Client’s name as a reference without the Client’s consent.
Client should be aware that a coach-client relationship does not give rise to privilege or any other legally protected confidentiality. That means that Coach could be ordered by a court to disclose information related to the relationship. Coach will notify Client of any legal request that would implicate Client’s information prior to disclosing it but may not be able to oppose disclosing the information.
Confidential Information does not include information: (a) known to Coach prior to Client disclosing it; (b) that is generally known to the public or in the industry; (c) obtained by Coach from a third party, without breach of any obligation to the Client; or (d) that is or was developed independently by Coach without use of or reference to the Client’s confidential information.
Use of Public Comments And Praise
To preserve the Client’s confidences, the Coach will not publicly post anything about Client’s sessions or coaching experience on social media or otherwise without the Client’s express written permission.
To the extent Client chooses to make any public disclosures about the coaching experience, whether through social media or other media, the Coach may reshare that information. This will include the right to reshare the Client’s comments, praise, or other disclosure on social media and other online platforms. In other words, if you choose to say anything about the coaching experience publicly, the Coach has the right to use those public comments to market and promote the Coach’s business.
This will include any necessary licenses to the copyright in your post and the right to use your name, image, or likeness (to the extent they are attached to your post) to promote the Coach’s business.
Termination
This Agreement shall continue until terminated by one of the Parties. Either Party may terminate the Agreement without cause by providing written notice prior to any ongoing monthly fee payment deadline. In the event of termination under this provision, the Coach shall continue to provide service through the end of the period for which the fees have been paid.
Limitation of Liability
IN NO EVENT SHALL COACH BE LIABLE TO CLIENT OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE, OR PROFIT, OR FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT COACH HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
