PRE-SESSION CLIENT ASSESSMENT FOR COACHES

Know your client
before session one.

Stop wasting the first session on intake questions. InsightsDNALab gives coaches a complete client profile โ€” archetype, communication style, blind spots, and a personalized playbook โ€” so you can start transforming from minute one.

THE PROBLEM

The first session shouldn't feel like a questionnaire.

Every coach knows the frustration. Your client walks in ready for transformation, but you spend 45 minutes on intake questions. They leave feeling like they didn't get value. You don't have enough context to go deep. Both of you are starting behind.

๐Ÿ˜ค

Clients Feel Unheard

They came for coaching, not a clipboard. The intake process feels clinical and impersonal โ€” the opposite of what coaching should be.

โฐ

Coaches Lose Precious Time

The first (and sometimes second) session is consumed by assessment. That's revenue-generating time spent on logistics.

๐ŸŽฏ

No Framework for Action

Even after intake, most coaches lack a structured framework for HOW to work with each unique client. Every session starts from scratch.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps to a better first session.

01

Client Takes the Assessment

30 conversational questions across 6 life domains. Takes 8โ€“12 minutes. Feels like a thoughtful conversation, not a clinical form.

02

Coach Gets the Playbook

Receive your client's archetype profile with communication style, blind spots, best exercises, red flags, and a 30-day action plan.

03

Session One = Deep Work

Skip intake entirely. You already know how they process, what motivates them, and exactly how to work with them. Start transforming immediately.

THE SCIENCE

Six dimensions of insight.

Each domain reveals a different layer of your client's inner landscape โ€” from how they see themselves to how they handle change.

7 ARCHETYPES

Every client has a pattern.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions coaches ask us.

DISC and Myers-Briggs tell you what type someone is. InsightsDNALab tells you how to actually coach them. Every archetype comes with a complete implementation guide โ€” session structure, communication approach, exercises, blind spots, red flags, and a 30-day action plan. Itโ€™s not just a label, itโ€™s a playbook.
8โ€“12 minutes. Itโ€™s 30 conversational questions designed to feel like a thoughtful conversation, not a clinical form. Clients consistently tell us itโ€™s the most engaging intake experience theyโ€™ve had.
No. The assessment and implementation guides are designed to be intuitive for any coach โ€” whether youโ€™re newly certified or have 20 years of experience. The Certified Practitioner tier includes deeper training materials, but itโ€™s optional.
Clients receive their archetype profile with a description of how they process information, what motivates them, and their communication style. The coach receives the full implementation guide with blind spots, red flags, exercises, and the 30-day plan โ€” giving you the strategic advantage.
Yes. The assessment covers the 6 core life domains that matter most for coaching: Self-Awareness, Relationships, Motivation, Resilience, Growth, and Decision-Making. Youโ€™ll know more about your client before session one than most coaches learn in three sessions.
Every archetype includes a primary and secondary type, which captures nuance. The assessment is designed around behavioral patterns, not self-reported preferences, which makes it more reliable. If something feels off, the secondary archetype often explains the variance.
No. InsightsDNALab works for life coaches, executive coaches, creative coaches, wellness coaches, career coaches, and any practitioner who works one-on-one with clients. The 6 domains are universal to human behavior, not specific to any coaching niche.
Starter gives you a single assessment link for one client ($29). The Practice Pack gives you 7 assessments at a discount (~$21 each). Unlimited Monthly ($79/mo) gives you unlimited assessments. The Certified Practitioner tier ($497 one-time) includes unlimited lifetime access, a certification badge, white-label options, and a listing in our practitioner directory.
Absolutely. Take the free assessment yourself to see exactly what your clients will experience. Youโ€™ll get your own archetype profile and a preview of the coach implementation guide. No account or credit card required.
Client privacy is paramount. Assessment results are generated in the browser and are not stored on our servers. Results are delivered instantly and can be saved or printed by the coach and client. We donโ€™t sell data or share it with third parties.
