For a 2-coach boutique coaching agency with irregular cash flow, I’d prioritize:

1. Low fixed monthly cost
2. No complicated setup
3. Ability to sell both high-touch 1:1 and scalable groups
4. Easy money tracking and coach splits
5. Avoiding platforms that take a big percentage when you have a good month

Here are the platforms I’d shortlist:

Coachtoolery Coachful## My recommendation for your specific stage

Best overall: Kajabi + a simple payout process

Use it if your model is:

• Coach A and Coach B each deliver some 1:1 clients
• You run recurring cohorts/masterminds
• You want landing pages, email marketing, payments, and client content in one place

A practical split model:

• All client payments go into the agency account
• Track delivery internally:

• Coach-led 1:1 sessions → percentage to coach
• Group program delivery → facilitator percentage + agency margin
• Sales/marketing contribution → separate commission if needed

This avoids being locked into a platform’s marketplace rules.

Best lean option: Paperbell + Stripe + bookkeeping

If your revenue is still uneven and you mostly sell packages:

• Monthly software cost stays lower
• Easy client onboarding
• Less operational overhead

You can add a group platform later.

Best “coaching agency” option: Simply.Coach

If you expect:

• More coaches
• More corporate clients
• More structured coaching journeys
• A need for client records and accountability tracking

I would avoid initially

• Building a full LMS stack (course platform + Zoom + scheduler + CRM) — too many subscriptions while revenue is inconsistent.
• Platforms that take a percentage of every sale — painful during strong months when margins matter.

A simple setup I’d use for two coaches

Client acquisition

• Website/landing pages
• Email list
• CRM

Delivery

• 1:1 packages
• Monthly group cohort
• Community space

Money flow

• One business Stripe account
• Automated monthly coach payouts
• Simple spreadsheet/accounting categories:

• Coach delivery %
• Sales commission %
• Agency margin
• Software costs

If you tell me your approximate model (e.g., $2k–5k/month vs $20k+/month, whether coaches are employees or contractors, and whether groups are cohorts or ongoing memberships), I can narrow this to one platform.

For a 2-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Paperbell first, with Practice Better as the more robust alternative.

My pick: Paperbell

Paperbell is particularly well matched if you want to keep the tech and fixed costs light.

• 1:1 coaching: scheduling, packages, payments, contracts, client portal, and video-call integrations are built in. Paperbell Paperbell
• Group programs: it supports group coaching/classes and lets you cap the number of participants. Paperbell Paperbell
• Irregular cash flow: you can use payment plans, recurring subscriptions, deposits, or pay-in-full pricing rather than being locked into one payment structure. Paperbell
• Cost: currently $57/month, or $570/year; Paperbell says there are no additional transaction fees charged by Paperbell itself. Paperbell
• Two-coach revenue split: this is the one area where I'd verify your exact workflow before committing. Paperbell is fundamentally designed around coaches selling their own services, rather than acting as a sophisticated agency commission/accounting system. You may need a simple internal monthly split spreadsheet/accounting workflow.

Alternative: Practice Better

Practice Better makes more sense if you want the platform itself to handle team operations.

Its current Team plan is $155/month for two practitioners, with shared scheduling, shared client access, team reporting, managed billing, and additional practitioners available at $50/month. It also supports group scheduling and fixed-date programs. Practice Better Practice Better Help

The downside for your situation is the higher fixed monthly cost. If revenue is lumpy, $155/month before payment-processing costs is materially harder to justify than Paperbell's $57.

What I'd do

Recommendation: Start with Paperbell if your "revenue split" means something like Client pays agency → agency calculates 50/50 (or another percentage) → coaches get paid separately. Keep that split outside the platform initially. If managing coach payouts, shared clients, and team reporting becomes a significant administrative burden, move to Practice Better Team.

One important distinction: if by "revenue split" you mean the platform should automatically split each client's payment between the two coaches/agency accounts, that's a different requirement. I'd evaluate platforms specifically for Stripe Connect/automated split payouts rather than assuming a coaching platform's "team" functionality does that.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Practice Better and Paperbell, with Practice Better as my first platform to trial.

My recommendation: Practice Better

practicebetter.io is unusually well matched to your combination of 1:1 work + group programs + two practitioners.

• 1:1 sessions: scheduling, video sessions, packages, payments, client portal.
• Group programs: group scheduling, group sessions, fixed-date programs, and—on higher tiers—evergreen/self-paced programs. Practice Better
• Two coaches: its Team plan is specifically designed for multi-practitioner practices and includes 2 practitioner licenses. It also provides shared scheduling, team reporting, managed billing, and roles/permissions. Practice Better
• Cash-flow friendly: you aren't paying per transaction as a percentage of revenue according to the published plan structure; the Team subscription is currently $155/month, with a 30-day trial. Practice Better Practice Better
• Revenue split: this is the one area I'd verify during the trial. Practice Better gives you team billing/reporting infrastructure, but I wouldn't assume it automatically calculates a custom coach-by-coach revenue split. You may still want a simple monthly spreadsheet/accounting workflow for the actual 60/40, 50/50, etc. allocation.

A simpler alternative: Paperbell

paperbell.com is worth testing if you don't need the more practice-management-oriented features.

It supports 1:1 and group coaching, packages, payment plans, subscriptions, scheduling, contracts, and client management, and can combine 1:1 sessions with group programs/content. Its published price is $57/month, with a free account/trial option. Paperbell Paperbell

The tradeoff is that it's more focused on the coaching-sales/client experience than on running a multi-coach operation. For two coaches, I'd investigate exactly how you would attribute sales and payouts before committing.

What I'd avoid initially

Kajabi can certainly handle 1:1 and group coaching, and it's much stronger if you're building a substantial course/content/marketing business. Kajabi Kajabi But for your stated needs, you're potentially paying for a much larger marketing/course ecosystem than you need.

Bottom line:
Start with Practice Better Team if having both coaches inside one operational system is important. Start with Paperbell if keeping monthly overhead and complexity as low as possible is the priority.

If by “simple revenue split” you mean “Client pays $1,000 → Coach A automatically gets 60%, Coach B/agency gets 40%, with payouts/reconciliation handled by the platform,” that's a more specific requirement, and I'd narrow the options around that workflow rather than just looking at coaching features.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Paperbell first, with CoachAccountable as the stronger alternative if you need deeper team/accountability features.

My pick: Paperbell

paperbell.com is unusually well matched to your model because it combines:

• 1:1 coaching — packages, scheduling, contracts, client portal, and recurring subscriptions.
• Group programs — cohort scheduling, participant limits, payment plans, and workshops.
• Mixed offers — you can sell packages combining group and 1:1 sessions.
• Irregular cash flow friendly — it's a flat $57/month monthly, or $47.50/month annually, rather than charging based on client count. It also doesn't add its own transaction fee on top of Stripe/PayPal processing. Paperbell Paperbell
• Low operational overhead — booking, checkout, contracts, onboarding and payments are in one system.

The big caveat for your two-coach setup is that Paperbell is fundamentally oriented around an individual coach account. If you want one shared agency workspace with explicit coach assignment and internal revenue reporting, I'd look harder at CoachAccountable.

Runner-up: CoachAccountable

coachaccountable.com is more powerful operationally. It supports individual and group sessions, packages, subscriptions, courses, team permissions, coach-client pairing, and payment reporting. CoachAccountable

Its pricing starts at $20/month for up to 2 active clients and scales with the number of active clients, so it can be attractive while you're very small but becomes less predictable as your client base grows. CoachAccountable

Importantly, CoachAccountable doesn't take a percentage of your coaching revenue; you pay the normal fees from Stripe, Square or PayPal. CoachAccountable

What I'd choose for you

Bottom line: If by “simple revenue split” you mean “we just need to collect the money centrally and split it between the two coaches without building an elaborate compensation system,” I'd choose Paperbell and handle the coach split in a simple monthly spreadsheet/accounting report.

If you mean “the platform itself needs to track Coach A's revenue vs. Coach B's revenue and make payouts/commission calculations,” I'd choose CoachAccountable—but I'd confirm its exact payout workflow before committing.

I would not start with a heavyweight course/community platform for your situation. Your irregular cash flow makes a predictable, low fixed-cost setup more valuable than a huge feature set.

I’d recommend talkspresso.com for your situation: no monthly fee, 1:1 + group sessions, built-in booking/video/payments, and you keep 90% of revenue. Talkspresso

If you mean revenue split between your two coaches (e.g., 60/40 per session), I’d instead look at Practice or a lightweight Stripe-based setup; Talkspresso’s 10% is its platform fee, not coach-to-coach splitting. practice.do practice.do

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Paperbell first.

My recommendation: paperbell.com

It fits your model unusually well because it is built around coaching rather than trying to make a generic CRM do coaching.

• 1:1 coaching: packages, session tracking, scheduling, contracts, intake forms, and recurring monthly sessions. Paperbell Paperbell
• Group programs: supports cohorts, live workshops, participant caps, payment plans, and even packages that combine group + 1:1. Paperbell Paperbell
• Irregular cash flow: the platform is a relatively small fixed cost—currently $57/month or $570/year—with no Paperbell transaction markup; clients pay through your connected Stripe/PayPal account. Paperbell Paperbell
• Simple client experience: clients can purchase, sign, schedule, complete intake, and access materials in one flow. Paperbell

The catch for your agency

There is one important issue: Paperbell is designed for one service provider per account, so a two-coach agency would need a separate account for each coach. Paperbell

That makes the revenue-split requirement the deciding factor. Paperbell doesn't appear to provide an agency-style automatic split where, say, $2,000 comes in and $1,200 automatically goes to Coach A and $800 to the agency. Payments go directly to the connected coach's Stripe/PayPal account. Paperbell

So I'd structure it like:

Client → Stripe → coach/account → monthly reconciliation of agency share

If you specifically need automatic revenue splitting, I'd look beyond Paperbell rather than forcing it into your workflow.

Runner-up: Kajabi

kajabi.com is stronger if you expect to become more of a content + group-program business. It supports both 1:1 and group coaching, recurring/one-time payments, packages, checkout, email, and community. Kajabi

But for your current size, I think it's more platform than you need. A recent comparison puts Kajabi's entry coaching offering substantially above Paperbell's $57/month price point. Paperbell

Bottom line

I'd start with Paperbell if you're comfortable handling the coach/agency split separately. If automatic revenue sharing is a hard requirement, tell me how you want the split to work (e.g. 70/30 per sale, agency keeps fees first, etc.), and I can narrow this to platforms that actually support that workflow.

For a two-coach boutique coaching agency with uneven monthly revenue, I’d prioritize:

1. Low fixed costs (avoid paying for a big platform during slow months)
2. Support for both private coaching and cohorts
3. Easy payouts/revenue splits between the two coaches
4. Client ownership and portability (don’t get trapped)

Here are the platforms I’d shortlist:

A few newer all-in-one coaching platforms are also worth considering:

• Talkspresso combines booking, payments, video sessions, and group coaching, with a transaction-based model rather than a large monthly commitment. Talkspresso
• Lokul supports paid 1:1 bookings and live group coaching with an automated payout split model. Lokul

My recommendation for your agency

Best overall: Practice + Stripe

For a two-person boutique agency, I’d lean toward:

• Client management/coaching delivery in Practice
• Payments through Stripe
• A simple internal split agreement (for example, 50/50 after agreed expenses, or coach-owned revenue with an agency fee)

Why:

• Your revenue is irregular, so you avoid locking into a heavy “creator business” platform.
• You can handle premium 1:1 clients cleanly.
• You can still run cohorts using Zoom + a community tool if needed.

If group programs are becoming the main revenue engine: Kajabi

Choose this if your model is moving toward:

• 10–50 person cohorts
• evergreen programs
• memberships
• email marketing funnels
• digital products

It costs more, but it can replace multiple tools.

If cash flow is your biggest constraint: transaction-fee platforms

A platform like Talkspresso may fit a smaller agency because costs rise when you earn rather than when you’re between launches. Talkspresso

Revenue split setup I’d use

Regardless of platform, avoid splitting every transaction manually. Set up:

Option A — Agency model

• All payments go to the agency Stripe account
• Coaches are paid monthly: - Coach delivery fee (e.g., 60–70%)
• Agency keeps operations/marketing/admin share

Option B — Coach-owned clients

• Each coach owns their clients
• Platform revenue is tracked by coach
• Agency takes a smaller shared-services fee

For only two coaches, I’d keep the accounting simple rather than optimizing every dollar.

My pick:

1. Practice + Stripe if you are primarily high-touch coaching.
2. Kajabi if group programs are expected to become >50% of revenue.
3. Talkspresso/Lokul-style transaction models if you’re still validating offers and want minimal fixed costs. Talkspresso Lokul

If you tell me your average client price (1:1), group program size/price, and whether the two coaches are equal partners or contractors, I can narrow this to a specific stack and payout structure.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d prioritize low fixed cost, no per-client pricing, and easy handling of both 1:1 and cohorts.

My pick: Paperbell

paperbell.com is probably the best fit if “simple revenue split” means you’re comfortable having each coach receive/manage their own payments rather than having the platform automatically split every transaction between coaches.

Why:

• 1:1: packages, scheduling, payments, contracts, intake, and client portal.
• Groups: supports group coaching and live workshops, including participant limits and payment plans. Paperbell
• Cash-flow friendly: $57/month monthly or $47.50/month annual, with unlimited clients; there’s also a free starting account. Paperbell Paperbell
• No platform transaction markup: payments go through Stripe or PayPal, with their normal processing fees. Paperbell
• Very little admin: particularly attractive for a tiny agency that doesn't want to maintain a CRM/LMS monster.

Important catch: Paperbell is fundamentally one-coach-per-account. For a two-coach agency, you'd need separate coach accounts, which makes centralized revenue splitting/reporting less elegant. Coachful

If revenue splitting is the key requirement

I'd instead look closely at CoachAccountable. It supports multiple coach/admin seats and group programs, and its pricing starts at $20/month for two active clients and scales with active-client volume. Paperbell

It's more operationally sophisticated, though, and probably more software than you need if your main goal is simply sell → schedule → coach → get paid → split revenue.

My shortlist

I wouldn't start with Kajabi for your situation: its entry pricing is substantially higher and you're paying for a broader marketing/course ecosystem that a two-person boutique agency may not need. Paperbell

Bottom line: Start with Paperbell if you can handle the coach-by-coach payment split manually. If you specifically want one agency account, two coaches, and cleaner internal revenue allocation, choose CoachAccountable.

If you tell me how you want the split to work (e.g. 50/50 per session, coach gets 70%/agency 30%, or different splits for 1:1 vs groups), I can narrow this to the best 2–3 platforms specifically for that model.

For a 2-coach boutique coaching agency with irregular cash flow, I’d prioritize:

1. Low fixed monthly cost (so slow months don’t hurt)
2. Built-in payments + packages (so cash collection is smoother)
3. 1:1 + cohorts/groups in one place
4. Simple coach revenue attribution/splits (avoid spreadsheets)

My shortlist:

My recommendation for your situation

Best overall: Practice Better + a simple internal split system

For two coaches, I’d avoid a platform that tries to be a full marketplace. Use a coaching operations platform and keep the economics simple:

• Each coach has their own services: - Coach A: 1:1 package
• Coach B: 1:1 package
• Shared: group program
• Revenue split rules: - Individual clients → coach keeps agreed percentage
• Shared programs → split after platform/payment fees
• Referrals → add a referral percentage

Track this monthly in a simple revenue sheet.

Best if cash flow is unpredictable: Talkspresso

Because you mentioned irregular cash flow, a transaction-fee model can be attractive: you pay more when revenue comes in rather than carrying another large subscription during quiet periods. Talkspresso advertises no monthly fee and taking a percentage only when clients pay, with support for 1:1 and group coaching. Talkspresso

Best if group programs are becoming your main offer: Kajabi

If your goal is:

• monthly cohort launches
• memberships
• courses
• automated marketing

then Kajabi may justify its higher cost.

What I would avoid

• Building a stack of Calendly + Zoom + Stripe + email + course platform — it creates admin overhead.
• Enterprise coaching CRMs — usually too heavy for two coaches.
• Platforms that take a large percentage forever if you already bring your own clients.

A practical setup for your size would be:

Phase 1 (now):

• Coaching platform with payments + scheduling
• Monthly revenue split spreadsheet
• Separate coach calendars

Phase 2 (when groups grow):

• Add memberships/cohorts
• Automate coach payouts

If you tell me your approximate model (e.g., $500–$2k packages vs $5k+ coaching, and whether both coaches deliver the same methodology or separate specialties), I can narrow this to 2–3 options.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Paperbell first, with Practice Better as the stronger alternative if you need true multi-coach operations.

My pick: Paperbell

paperbell.com is unusually well matched to a small coaching business because it combines:

• 1:1 coaching: packages, scheduling, payments, contracts, client portal, notes, and automated reminders.
• Group programs: dedicated group-coaching functionality, including group packages and payment plans. Paperbell Paperbell
• Irregular cash flow: a flat $57/month, with unlimited clients, sessions, packages and earnings, rather than pricing that rises with your revenue. Paperbell
• Payment flexibility: you can sell packages, subscriptions and payment plans, which is useful when clients don't all pay on the same schedule. Paperbell
• Low financial risk: no additional Paperbell transaction fee beyond your payment processor's normal fees. Paperbell

The catch: Paperbell is designed around one service provider per account. Its own FAQ says practices with multiple coaches should purchase a separate account for each coach. Paperbell So it isn't ideal if by "revenue split" you mean the platform automatically receives client payment and distributes Coach A's 60% and Coach B's 40%.

If revenue splitting is important: Practice Better

practicebetter.io is probably the better operational fit for a genuine two-coach agency. Its Team plan is $155/month and includes two practitioner licenses, shared scheduling/calendar, team reporting, managed billing, and team collaboration. It also supports 1:1 sessions, group sessions, packages, programs and payment plans. Practice Better Practice Better

The downside is cost: $155/month is substantially more than Paperbell's $57, which matters when revenue is lumpy.

One other worth considering

coachaccountable.com has a Team Edition specifically for teams of coaches, and pricing is based on active clients rather than a fixed number of coaches. It explicitly doesn't take a percentage of your client payments. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable It's powerful, but more operationally complex than I'd choose for a tiny boutique agency unless you want sophisticated coaching-program/accountability features.

What I'd do in your situation

Start with Paperbell if the "revenue split" is something you can handle with a simple monthly spreadsheet. At your size, I'd prioritize keeping fixed software costs low and cash collection simple.

For example:

Client pays $1,000 → payment processor takes its fee → agency records $600 Coach A / $400 Coach B → pay coaches monthly.

If you need the platform itself to automate that split, I'd skip Paperbell and investigate Practice Better Team or a more agency-oriented setup.

Bottom line:
Paperbell = best value/simple setup.
Practice Better = best two-coach infrastructure.
CoachAccountable = best if sophisticated coaching management matters more than simplicity.

One important distinction: none of the sources I checked indicate that these platforms natively perform a Stripe-style automatic percentage revenue split between two coaches. If that's a hard requirement, I can narrow this down to platforms that specifically support automatic coach payouts/revenue sharing.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist CoachAccountable first, with Paperbell as the simpler/cheaper alternative.

My pick: CoachAccountable

coachaccountable.com

It fits your agency model better because it is built for multiple coaches, rather than treating each coach as a separate business. It supports:

• 1:1 coaching with scheduling, client records, notes, and accountability.
• Group programs with group sessions, assignments, metrics, messaging, and community features. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable
• Two coaches under one organization with no additional per-seat charge for team members. You can pair coaches with specific clients and control what each coach can see. CoachAccountable
• Variable/irregular revenue: pricing is based on active clients rather than a large upfront commitment, and there are no setup fees or contracts. CoachAccountable
• No platform percentage of your coaching revenue. Payments can run through Stripe, Square, or PayPal; CoachAccountable says it doesn't take a cut beyond normal payment-processor fees. CoachAccountable
• Coach compensation: it doesn't actually distribute revenue to coaches, but it tracks coaching activity/hours and provides reports you can use to calculate your agreed split. CoachAccountable

That last point is important: if by “simple revenue split” you mean something like “client pays $1,000 → Coach A gets 60%, Coach B/agency gets 40%”, CoachAccountable doesn't automate the money transfer. You'd use its reporting to calculate the split, then pay the coach through your normal accounting/payroll process. CoachAccountable

The simpler alternative: Paperbell

paperbell.com

Paperbell is arguably nicer if your priority is getting a small coaching business up and running with minimal admin. It handles 1:1 packages, subscriptions, payment plans, group programs, scheduling, contracts, and even packages that combine group + 1:1 sessions. Paperbell Paperbell

The big problem for you: one Paperbell account is designed for one service provider. For two coaches, Paperbell recommends separate accounts. Paperbell That makes agency-level revenue splitting and shared client management awkward.

What I'd do

Recommendation: Go with CoachAccountable if you're building an agency where both coaches will deliver under the same brand. Establish a simple compensation rule—e.g. coach receives X% of collected revenue for sessions they deliver—and use CoachAccountable's activity reports to calculate the monthly payout.

If you're essentially two independent coaches sharing a brand, rather than a true agency, I'd choose Paperbell instead because its simplicity may outweigh the lack of centralized team management. Paperbell

For a 2-coach boutique coaching agency with irregular cash flow, I’d prioritize:

1. Low fixed monthly cost (avoid paying enterprise software fees during slow months)
2. Handles both 1:1 and cohorts/groups
3. Easy coach payout/revenue split (so you don’t have to reconcile spreadsheets)
4. Simple client payments (packages, installments, subscriptions)

My shortlist:

Best overall fit: Practice.do

Why it fits a small agency:

• Built around coaching workflows rather than courses
• Supports client management, scheduling, programs, notes, and payments
• Better fit for a two-coach practice than creator platforms
• Lets you keep your own payment flow (useful if you want to split revenue internally)

Best setup for you:

• Clients pay the agency
• Stripe (or your payment processor) collects revenue
• You pay coaches weekly/monthly based on completed sessions or program ownership

Downside: revenue splitting is usually not its strongest native feature, so you may still need a simple accounting rule or payout spreadsheet. CourseStack Review

Best if group programs are becoming a major revenue stream: Kajabi

Good for:

• Cohort programs
• Memberships
• Courses + coaching hybrids
• Marketing funnels and email automation

Example:

• $3,000 12-week group program
• 20 clients enrolled
• Weekly group calls
• Optional 1:1 upgrades

Tradeoff: it is more expensive and marketing-heavy than you probably need as a two-person agency. Ruzuku

Best low-risk option for irregular cash flow: Paperbell

Good for:

• Selling coaching packages
• Scheduling
• Contracts
• Payment plans
• Simple 1:1 operations

This is attractive if your revenue swings because you mainly need a clean way to sell and deliver coaching without a large subscription burden. Ruzuku

Limitation: it is less suited for a true multi-coach agency and sophisticated group-program delivery. Ruzuku

Best if you want automatic revenue splits: marketplace-style platforms

Platforms like Lokul and similar models can automatically split payments because the platform takes a percentage of each transaction rather than charging only a subscription. Lokul

This matches irregular cash flow because your software cost rises only when revenue comes in.

Tradeoff: you may give up some control over branding, client ownership, and customer experience.

My recommendation for your specific situation

I’d choose:

Option A — simplest agency setup (my pick)

Practice.do + Stripe + a monthly coach payout process

Use:

• Agency owns clients
• Coaches deliver sessions
• Revenue split example: - Coach receives 50–70% of delivery revenue
• Agency keeps 30–50% for sales, admin, marketing, and platform costs

Best when you already have your own clients.

Option B — if group programs are 40%+ of revenue

Kajabi + Stripe + manual coach split

Best when your main offer is:

• 8–12 week cohorts
• Workshops
• Memberships
• Digital resources

Option C — if cash flow is very unpredictable

Paperbell initially, migrate later

Avoid locking into a large platform before your revenue becomes predictable.

One thing I would avoid: building your stack around separate tools (Calendly + Zoom + Teachable + Stripe + spreadsheets) unless you have someone managing operations. For a two-coach agency, the admin overhead becomes the hidden cost.

A couple of questions would change the recommendation:

• Do clients currently pay the agency or each coach directly?
• Is your revenue split more like 50/50 partners, or agency takes a percentage from contractor coaches?
• Are your group programs live cohorts or mostly self-paced courses + calls?

Practice.do + Stripe + a monthly coach payout process

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Practice Better first.

My recommendation: Practice Better

practicebetter.io is a strong fit because it handles the core things you need without forcing you into a big marketing-platform stack:

• 1:1 coaching: scheduling, packages, telehealth/video, client portal, payments and notes.
• Group programs: group scheduling, group sessions, messaging, and fixed-date programs.
• Two coaches: its Team plan supports 2 practitioner licenses and shared scheduling/calendar. Practice Better Practice Better
• Cash-flow friendly: the Team plan is currently listed at $155/month month-to-month ($145/month with annual billing), rather than requiring a large upfront commitment. Practice Better
• Revenue tracking: useful for seeing income by stream, which is valuable when your monthly revenue isn't predictable. Practice Better

The important caveat: "revenue split"

If by revenue split you mean “Client pays the agency → platform automatically calculates Coach A gets 60%, Coach B gets 40%, and pays/reconciles everyone”, I wouldn't choose Practice Better specifically for that. Its team features are more about managing a multi-provider practice than automating an internal commission/payroll split.

For a two-person agency, I'd instead keep the split extremely simple:

All client payments → agency account → monthly coach payout based on a predefined percentage.

For example, track each transaction as:

Client / Program / Revenue / Coach / Coach % / Coach payout

That can stay in a simple spreadsheet initially, while the platform handles delivery and collections.

Runner-up: Kajabi

kajabi.com is better if you're planning to become more of a coaching + digital-program business. It supports both 1:1 and group coaching, structured programs, recurring payments, checkout, community and marketing automation. Kajabi Kajabi

The downside for your situation is cost/complexity: you're paying for a much broader business/marketing platform. Current Kajabi pricing also adds payment-processing considerations. Kajabi

What I'd choose

Bottom line: Start with Practice Better Team if your main objective is to run the coaching agency cleanly. Don't over-engineer the revenue split—handle the coach percentages at the agency level until your volume justifies dedicated commission/accounting software.

If you tell me your intended coach split (e.g. 50/50, 60/40) and roughly monthly revenue/number of clients, I can compare the economics of Practice Better vs. Kajabi vs. a cheaper stack specifically for your agency.

For a two-coach boutique agency with uneven cash flow, I’d shortlist Paperbell first.

paperbell.com is unusually well matched to your service model: it handles 1:1 packages, group coaching, scheduling, payments/payment plans, contracts, client management, and client portals in one system. It also lets you combine group and 1:1 sessions in the same package. Paperbell Paperbell

The catch: your two-coach setup

Paperbell is designed for one service provider per account. Its own FAQ says practices with multiple coaches should purchase a separate account for each coach. Paperbell

So I’d structure it like:

• Coach A → Paperbell account
• Coach B → Paperbell account
• Use the same branding/offers across both.
• Have each coach receive their client payments directly through their own Stripe/PayPal account. Paperbell
• Track the agency's split between coaches separately rather than trying to make Paperbell function as a multi-coach commission engine.

Why it fits your irregular cash flow

The payment flexibility is particularly useful. You can sell one-off sessions, multi-session packages, subscriptions, deposits, and payment plans rather than relying exclusively on upfront payment. Paperbell

For group programs, you can set participant limits, recurring sessions, registration cutoffs, and automatically invite purchasers to the scheduled sessions. Paperbell Paperbell

Pricing is currently $57/month per account, or about $47.50/month when billed annually, with no additional Paperbell transaction fee; Stripe/PayPal processing still applies. Paperbell

My recommendation

If "simple revenue split" means you want to easily divide revenue between two coaches: Paperbell is a good operational platform, but not an ideal commission/accounting platform.

For example, if your agency sells a $2,000 group program and Coach A gets 60% / Coach B 40%, I'd have the platform collect the sale and maintain a simple monthly revenue-split spreadsheet/accounting workflow rather than choosing a much more complex coaching platform solely for that feature.

Bottom line: I'd choose Paperbell if simplicity and low fixed overhead are the priorities. Its combination of 1:1 + groups + payment plans is a strong fit for an agency whose revenue isn't predictable. The two-account limitation is the main thing I'd test before committing. Paperbell

If you tell me how you currently split revenue (e.g. 50/50, coach keeps 70%, agency keeps 30%), I can also compare Paperbell with 2–3 alternatives specifically on multi-coach revenue splitting and cost.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Delenta first.

Why Delenta fits

• 1:1 coaching: Supports individual packages, session tracking, scheduling, contracts, and client management. Delenta Help Center Delenta Help Center
• Group programs: You can create cohort/group packages, set participant limits, schedule group sessions, and use recurring payment plans. Delenta Help Center Delenta Help Center
• Two coaches/team structure: Its Teams plan supports multiple coaches/associates, shared visibility, permissions, and team reporting. It starts at $99/month for 2 seats. Delenta
• Revenue split: This is the standout feature for your use case. Delenta lets an admin set different payout rates per coach, either globally or for a particular package, and calculate payouts by session or hour. Delenta Help Center
• Irregular cash flow: It supports prepaid packages, pay-as-you-go, recurring subscriptions, and payment plans through Stripe/PayPal. It also says it doesn't take a commission on your client payments. Delenta

So, for example, you could sell a $2,000 program under the agency brand, assign Coach A to deliver six sessions, Coach B to deliver four, and configure each coach's compensation separately rather than manually calculating the split every month.

One alternative worth considering

Simply.Coach is attractive if you care more about the coaching experience and program management than automated payout mechanics. Its team plans support multiple coaches and group coaching, with additional active coaches priced at $29/month, but I'd choose Delenta specifically because its coach-rate/payout functionality is much closer to your "simple revenue split" requirement. Delenta Help Center G2

simply.coach

Bottom line: Delenta Teams is the best match. It gives you one system for 1:1 + groups + payments + two coaches + coach-specific compensation, without requiring a complicated finance workflow.

If you tell me roughly your monthly revenue range and how you currently split revenue (e.g. 50/50, per-session fee, or percentage after expenses), I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 platforms and estimate your monthly software cost.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist these three:

1. Best overall: coachaccountable.com

This is probably the best fit if your priority is running an actual coaching agency rather than just selling coaching packages.

• Supports 1:1 sessions, group coaching, courses/programs, recurring billing, installments, and packages. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable
• Its Team Edition lets you add coaches without per-seat charges and assign clients to specific coaches. CoachAccountable
• Pricing is based on active clients, so if your revenue is lumpy, you aren't paying based on a high-water-mark client count. CoachAccountable
• It doesn't automatically split money between coaches, but it gives you detailed reports of coach activity/hours, which can be used to calculate each coach's share. CoachAccountable
• Payments go through processors such as Stripe, Square, or PayPal; CoachAccountable itself doesn't take a percentage of your client payments. CoachAccountable

For your revenue split: I'd do something like agency collects 100% → monthly CoachAccountable report → calculate 60/40 or whatever your agreement is → pay coaches. It's not glamorous, but it's simple and keeps the accounting under your control.

2. Best for simplicity: paperbell.com

If you don't need sophisticated agency/team management, Paperbell is attractive.

It's $57/month, with unlimited clients/sessions, group coaching, packages, scheduling, payments, contracts and client management, with no additional transaction fee from Paperbell. Paperbell Paperbell

It also supports payment plans and recurring subscriptions, which is useful when cash flow isn't predictable. Paperbell

The catch: it isn't really designed around a two-coach agency/revenue-sharing model. I'd choose it if each coach essentially operates independently, rather than if you're building a shared agency operation.

3. Best if you want automated coach payouts: bettercoachapp.com

This one is particularly interesting for your revenue-split requirement. It uses Stripe Connect, allowing each coach to connect their own Stripe account, with payouts going directly to them while the platform keeps a configurable platform fee. It also supports branded 1:1 booking and group webinars. Better Coaching

I'd investigate it further if automated splitting of every client payment is more important than having a mature coaching-management system.

My recommendation

Start with CoachAccountable if you're building a genuine two-coach agency.

Your setup could be:

Client pays agency → CoachAccountable/Stripe records payment → coach attribution → monthly revenue report → predetermined coach split → payout.

That gives you the flexibility to handle:

• 1:1 packages
• Cohort/group programs
• Different coaches charging different rates
• Payment plans
• Uneven monthly revenue
• Clients shared between coaches

If by “simple revenue split” you specifically mean “client pays $1,000 and the platform automatically sends $600 to Coach A and $400 to the agency,” then I'd lean toward Better Coaching/Stripe Connect instead. CoachAccountable explicitly leaves the actual movement of money to you. CoachAccountable Better Coaching

One other option worth considering is Practice Better: its Team plan currently supports exactly two practitioner licenses and includes group scheduling, programs, team scheduling and managed billing, at $155/month. practicebetter.io practicebetter.io It's more practice-management oriented, though, so I'd pick CoachAccountable for a pure coaching agency.

The catch: it isn't really designed around a two-coach agency/revenue-sharing model. I'd choose it if each coach essentially operates independently, rather than if you're building a shared agency operation.

3. Best if you want automated coach payouts: bettercoachapp.com

This one is particularly interesting for your revenue-split requirement. It uses Stripe Connect, allowing each coach to connect their own Stripe account, with payouts going directly to them while the platform keeps a configurable platform fee. It also supports branded 1:1 booking and group webinars.

I'd investigate it further if automated splitting of every client payment is more important than having a mature coaching-management system.

My recommendation

Start with CoachAccountable if you're building a genuine two-coach agency.

Your setup could be:

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Paperbell first.

Best fit: paperbell.com

Why it fits your model:

• 1:1 coaching: packages, scheduling, session tracking, contracts, intake, and payments.
• Group programs: supports group coaching and workshops, including packages that mix group and 1:1 sessions. Paperbell Paperbell
• Irregular cash flow: its pricing is a predictable $57/month, or $47.50/month annually, with no additional Paperbell transaction fee. You can also offer payment plans, subscriptions, and pay-in-full discounts. Paperbell Paperbell
• Small team: the bigger advantage is simplicity—you aren't paying according to an expanding client roster.
• Revenue split: this is the one caveat. Paperbell is primarily designed around payments going to the coach's Stripe/PayPal account, rather than being a sophisticated agency commission/accounting system. Paperbell

So I'd handle the split outside the platform with a simple monthly spreadsheet: revenue collected → coach share → agency share. For two coaches, that's likely much easier than adopting an enterprise-style platform.

Runner-up: coachaccountable.com

I'd choose this instead if your group programs involve substantial accountability, assignments, metrics, worksheets, or structured curriculum. It has strong 1:1, group, and course/program functionality, and importantly, it allows unlimited coach/admin accounts at no additional seat cost. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable

The downside for you is pricing based on active clients: $20/month for 2 clients, $70 for 10, $120 for 20, $250 for 50, etc. CoachAccountable With irregular revenue, that scaling cost is less attractive.

What I would not pick

Kajabi is powerful, but probably overkill for two coaches unless you're also building a substantial course/content/marketing business. Its coaching product supports 1:1 and groups, but the entry price is considerably higher than Paperbell. Paperbell

My recommendation

Bottom line: I'd use Paperbell + Stripe + a very simple coach-revenue spreadsheet. It gives you the least operational overhead while covering your actual delivery model. If your agency's revenue split needs to be automatically calculated and paid to each coach, however, I'd look for a different platform rather than trying to force Paperbell to do accounting it wasn't designed for.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d recommend paperbell.com as the best fit.

Why Paperbell

• 1:1 coaching: Client self-scheduling, packages, subscriptions, payment plans, contracts, forms, and client portals are built in. Paperbell Paperbell
• Group programs: You can sell cohort/group packages, set participant limits, schedule recurring group sessions, and even combine group sessions with 1:1 sessions in the same package. Paperbell Paperbell
• Irregular cash flow: The monthly plan is $57/month, with no additional Paperbell transaction fee. There is also an annual option, but I'd stick with monthly initially given your cash-flow variability. Paperbell
• Payment flexibility: You can offer payment plans, ongoing monthly subscriptions, deposits, and pay-in-full options—useful when revenue isn't predictable. Paperbell Paperbell
• Two coaches: The main caveat is your revenue split requirement. Paperbell sends client payments directly to the coach's own Stripe/PayPal account rather than holding and splitting funds. Paperbell So it doesn't appear to provide a native agency-style "70% Coach A / 30% Coach B" split.

How I'd handle the revenue split

If by "simple revenue split" you mean you want the agency to collect revenue and then divide it between the two coaches, I'd pair Paperbell with a very lightweight accounting/payment workflow rather than moving to a much heavier coaching platform.

For example:

Client pays $2,000 → agency receives it → spreadsheet/accounting system records Coach A's 60% ($1,200) and Coach B's 40% ($800) → coaches are paid on a monthly settlement date.

That keeps your software cost predictable while allowing the split to change by program or coach.

One alternative worth considering

coachaccountable.com is stronger if your priority is sophisticated coaching/accountability workflows. Its pricing is based on active clients, starting at $20/month for two clients, and it doesn't take a cut of client payments. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable

But for simple selling + 1:1 + groups + keeping overhead low, I'd choose Paperbell.

Bottom line: Paperbell is the cleaner choice for your current stage; just treat the revenue split as an accounting/settlement process rather than expecting the platform itself to divide each payment.

For a 2-coach boutique agency with uneven revenue, I’d shortlist these three:

1. paperbell.com — best for simplicity

This would be my first choice if you want the least operational overhead.

• Handles 1:1 coaching, packages, subscriptions/payment plans, and group coaching in one system. Paperbell Paperbell
• Flat $57/month, with no additional Paperbell transaction fee; it connects to Stripe or PayPal. Paperbell Paperbell
• Particularly attractive with irregular cash flow because you're not paying a large per-coach/per-client platform bill.
• The downside: revenue splitting between two coaches isn't its core strength. You'd likely handle the split internally—e.g., one agency Stripe account + a monthly coach payout spreadsheet.

2. practicebetter.io — best for a true two-coach team

If by "revenue split" you mean each coach should be able to receive/track their own payments, this is the more compelling option.

Its Team plan is built for 2+ practitioners, starting at $155/month, with shared scheduling, team reporting, managed billing, and role permissions. Importantly, it can either centralize payments through the practice owner or let individual practitioners connect their own payment processors; it can also mix the two approaches by service. Practice Better Practice Better

It also supports group scheduling/programs and integrated payments. Practice Better

The catch is that $155/month is a meaningful fixed cost for a business with irregular revenue.

3. kajabi.com — best if group programs become the growth engine

Kajabi is stronger if you're building cohort/group programs, digital content, upsells, subscriptions, and marketing funnels, rather than simply managing coaching appointments. It supports both 1:1 and group coaching, recurring/one-time payments, packages, bundles, and built-in checkout. Kajabi

But for two coaches who mainly need sessions + programs + straightforward financial allocation, I'd consider it more platform than you need.

My recommendation

Start with Paperbell if your priority is:

"We need to sell 1:1 and group coaching without adding another expensive system."

Then establish a simple internal split such as:

Client payment → agency account → platform/payment fees → coach's agreed percentage → agency remainder

If the two coaches need automated, separate payment ownership, go with Practice Better Team instead.

One important distinction: if by "revenue split" you mean automatically calculate and pay Coach A 60% and Coach B 40% of each sale, rather than simply keeping each coach's revenue separate, I would evaluate the payment architecture separately. That's the part where most coaching platforms aren't especially elegant.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist Paperbell first, with Practice Better as the stronger alternative if you expect more operational complexity.

My pick: paperbell.com

Paperbell is unusually well matched to your model because it is built around selling coaching packages, rather than making you assemble a stack of scheduling + payments + client management tools.

• 1:1 coaching: sell packages containing individual sessions, with client self-booking.
• Group programs: packages can include group appointments/live classes, including combinations of group and 1:1 sessions. Paperbell Paperbell
• Irregular cash flow: clients can pay upfront, via payment plans, or through recurring subscriptions, which gives you flexibility to collect revenue when programs actually sell. Paperbell
• Low fixed overhead: currently $57/month, with unlimited clients and sessions and no additional Paperbell transaction fee. Paperbell
• Two-coach caveat: Paperbell is primarily designed around the coaching business rather than sophisticated multi-provider accounting. If by "revenue split" you mean automatically pay Coach A 60% and Coach B 40% of each sale, I would not choose Paperbell on that requirement alone. You'd likely maintain a simple monthly revenue-share spreadsheet/accounting process.

If revenue split is the key requirement: Practice Better

practicebetter.io is more compelling operationally for a two-person practice. Its Team plan is $155/month and includes two practitioner licenses, team scheduling, shared calendar, roles/permissions, programs, payments, and unlimited clients. Practice Better Practice Better

More importantly, it explicitly supports different billing arrangements: the practice can collect everything centrally, each practitioner can connect their own payment processor, or you can mix the approaches by service. That makes it much more natural for independent coaches who need a clean revenue-allocation model. Practice Better

How I'd decide

CoachAccountable is another legitimate option—it handles 1:1 coaching, groups and courses—but its pricing scales with active clients, starting at $20/month for 2 clients and reaching $70 for 10, $120 for 20, etc. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable For an agency with uneven enrollment, I wouldn't make it my first choice.

Bottom line: If your "revenue split" can be handled with a simple monthly calculation, I'd choose Paperbell for the simplicity and low fixed cost. If the two coaches need different payment flows or cleaner separation of revenue, spend the extra on Practice Better Team.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d recommend Paperbell as the best starting point.

Why Paperbell fits

• 1:1 coaching: packages, scheduling, payments, contracts, intake forms, and client portal are built in.
• Group programs: supports group coaching/live classes, including packages that combine group + 1:1 sessions. Paperbell Paperbell
• Cash-flow friendly: it’s a flat $57/month month-to-month (or $47.50/month annually), with unlimited clients and no additional Paperbell transaction fee; payments run through Stripe or PayPal. Paperbell Paperbell
• Two coaches: you avoid a per-client pricing model, which becomes less attractive as your roster grows. Psychology.com
• Low operational overhead: you can sell a package, collect payment/payment plans, schedule sessions, and deliver materials without stitching together several systems.

The one catch: revenue splitting

Paperbell is not really an agency revenue-split/accounting platform. I'd handle the coach split separately—e.g., every sale gets tagged to Coach A or Coach B, then settle the agreed percentage monthly.

If by “simple revenue split” you mean the platform itself should automatically divide a client's payment between the agency and the individual coach, that's the deciding requirement I'd investigate further before choosing Paperbell.

Runner-up: coachaccountable.com. It is stronger for sophisticated program delivery, accountability, groups, and team administration, and it explicitly supports unlimited coach/admin accounts. However, its pricing is based on active clients, starting at $20/month for 2 clients and increasing as the roster grows. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable

My ranking for your situation

1. Paperbell — best balance of simplicity, 1:1 + groups, payments, and predictable cost.
2. CoachAccountable — better if your programs involve substantial homework, metrics, accountability, or structured multi-week delivery.
3. Simply.Coach — worth considering if minimizing fixed cost is the priority; its lower tiers are considerably cheaper, while still supporting group coaching. Psychology.com

Bottom line: I'd start with Paperbell + a very simple monthly revenue-split spreadsheet rather than buying a heavier agency-management system. With only two coaches and uneven revenue, keeping the fixed software cost predictable is particularly valuable.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d put Paperbell at the top of the list.

My recommendation: Paperbell

Paperbell is unusually well matched to your model because it handles the commercial side of coaching without forcing you into a heavyweight practice-management system.

• 1:1 coaching: sell packages, let clients self-book, and support different session lengths. Paperbell Paperbell
• Group programs: you can create fixed-date group sessions and even combine group sessions with 1:1 sessions in the same package. Paperbell Paperbell
• Irregular cash flow: payment plans, deposits, subscriptions, pay-in-full pricing and coupons are supported, so you aren't limited to collecting everything upfront. Paperbell Paperbell
• Low operational overhead: checkout, scheduling, contracts, client admin and payments live together, which is attractive for a two-person shop. Paperbell

paperbell.com

The catch: revenue splitting

This is the part I'd investigate before committing. Paperbell is excellent at selling and delivering coaching, but it isn't primarily designed around an agency model where one checkout automatically calculates and distributes, say, 60% to Coach A / 40% to Coach B.

If by "simple revenue split" you mean automatic payout to each coach, a more interesting option is Better Coaching. It uses Stripe Connect so each coach can connect their own Stripe account, receive their share directly, and the agency can retain a configurable platform fee. It explicitly supports both 1:1 bookings and group webinars. Better Coaching

bettercoachapp.com

What I'd choose

Practice Better's Team plan is designed for multi-provider practices and currently starts at $155/month for two practitioner licenses, with group programs, scheduling and payments. Practice Better Practice Better

Bottom line: If the revenue split can be handled with a monthly spreadsheet/accounting step, I'd pick Paperbell for simplicity. If automatic per-transaction splitting between the two coaches is a hard requirement, I'd test Better Coaching + Stripe Connect first.

For your specific situation, I'd avoid a big platform like Kajabi unless you also need a substantial course/community business—the extra complexity isn't likely to pay off for two coaches.

For a two-coach boutique coaching agency with uneven monthly revenue, I’d prioritize:

1. Low fixed cost (avoid paying for enterprise features during slow months)
2. Multiple offer types (private coaching + cohorts)
3. Clean coach payout tracking (so revenue splits don’t become a spreadsheet nightmare)
4. Room to grow without migrating clients later

My shortlist:

Coachtoolery EzyCourse## My recommendation for your specific situation

I’d lean toward Practice.do as the operational hub, paired with a simple payment workflow.

Why:

• Two coaches is exactly the size where you need shared visibility but don’t need a giant platform.
• You can manage: - individual clients
• coaching packages
• session history
• client notes
• coach assignments
• It keeps the business side organized while revenue is still variable. Coachli

For revenue splits, I’d structure it like:

• Client pays agency → agency account receives revenue
• Platform tracks which coach owns delivery
• Monthly payout: - Coach A: X% of their delivered sessions/program revenue
• Coach B: X% of theirs
• Agency keeps admin/marketing margin

Avoid platforms where each coach collects their own payments unless you intentionally want separate businesses; it makes reporting and cash-flow management harder.

If group programs are becoming a major revenue stream

Choose Kajabi instead.

It’s better if your future model is:

• Premium 1:1 coaching
• 6–12 week cohorts
• Workshops
• Membership/community
• Email marketing funnels

That said, you may pay for capabilities you don’t need yet. Ruzuku

A practical stack for a lean agency

Stage 1 (now):

• Practice.do → coaching delivery + client records
• Stripe → payments
• Accounting software → coach payouts

Stage 2 (when group revenue is consistent):

• Add Kajabi or a similar program platform for cohorts and digital products

Given your size and irregular cash flow, I would not start with an expensive all-in-one platform. A lightweight coaching operations platform plus disciplined monthly revenue splitting is likely the better fit. Coachtoolery Coachli

One key question would change the recommendation: do both coaches deliver the same program under one brand, or does each coach have their own clients/offers? That determines whether you need team management or just a shared sales platform.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d recommend paperbell.com.

Why Paperbell fits

• 1:1 coaching: Sell single sessions, packages, subscriptions, or multi-session engagements, with scheduling and payment tied together. Paperbell
• Group programs: It has dedicated group-coaching functionality, including participant limits, scheduled sessions, payment plans, and mixed 1:1 + group packages. Paperbell Paperbell
• Low fixed cost: $57/month, or $47.50/month when billed annually, with unlimited clients and no additional Paperbell transaction fee. That's particularly attractive when revenue is lumpy because your software cost doesn't rise with client volume. Paperbell
• Cash-flow friendly: You can offer payment plans, deposits, subscriptions, or pay-in-full pricing rather than manually chasing invoices. Paperbell
• Simple payments: Client payments go directly to the coach's Stripe/PayPal account rather than Paperbell holding the funds. Paperbell

The one caveat: revenue split

Paperbell is not really an agency revenue-split/accounting system. If by "simple revenue split" you mean something like:

Client pays $2,000 → Coach A gets 60%, Coach B gets 40%

I'd keep that calculation outside the platform—e.g. in a very simple monthly spreadsheet—and use Paperbell as the client-facing sales, scheduling, contracts, and payment system.

If instead you mean each coach should receive payment for their own clients, Paperbell works nicely because payments can go to the respective coach's Stripe/PayPal account. Paperbell

Runner-up: CoachAccountable

coachaccountable.com is stronger if your priority is sophisticated coaching delivery—metrics, homework, accountability, structured courses, and group engagement. It also supports 1:1 and group coaching and doesn't take a cut of client payments. CoachAccountable

But its pricing is based on active client count ($20/month for up to 2 active clients, $40 for 5, $70 for 10, etc.), so Paperbell's flat $57/month is more predictable for an agency whose revenue fluctuates. CoachAccountable

My pick: Paperbell if you want simple, low-overhead operations. CoachAccountable if your programs are substantially more structured and accountability-heavy.

For your particular setup, I'd start with Paperbell and handle the two-coach split with a lightweight monthly reconciliation rather than paying for a more complicated agency platform.

For a two-coach boutique agency with uneven revenue, I’d shortlist Practice Better first, with CoachAccountable as the simpler/leaner alternative.

My pick: Practice Better

Practice Better is unusually well matched to your model because its Team plan is specifically designed for two practitioners. It includes shared/team scheduling, centralized or individual payment processing, group sessions, programs, client management, and billing. practicebetter.iopracticebetter.iowww.coachaccountable.comwww.kajabi.com

The key feature for your revenue split is that Practice Better supports two billing approaches:

• Centralized: all client payments go through the agency's payment processor, then you split revenue internally.
• Independent: each coach connects their own processor and handles their own billing.
• Hybrid: you can choose the approach by service, which is especially useful if, say, agency-owned group programs are split 50/50 while each coach keeps revenue from their own 1:1 clients. practicebetter.io

For your use case, I'd lean toward centralized billing + an internal monthly revenue report, rather than having the platform try to calculate the coaches' split itself.

Current Team pricing: $155/month, with two practitioner licenses included; additional practitioners are $50/month. practicebetter.iopracticebetter.iowww.coachaccountable.comwww.kajabi.com

Runner-up: CoachAccountable

CoachAccountable is probably the better choice if you care more about coaching workflow and keeping fixed software costs low than having a polished multi-coach business platform.

It supports paid offerings, one-off sessions, payment plans/installments, and integrates with Stripe, Square, and PayPal. It also explicitly says it doesn't take a percentage of your client revenue—you pay your payment processor's normal fees. www.coachaccountable.com

Its pricing is based on active clients rather than revenue; for example, $20/month for 2 clients, $40 for 5, $70 for 10, and $120 for 20. www.coachaccountable.com That can be attractive when cash flow is irregular.

The catch: you'll likely need a separate process/spreadsheet for the agency's coach revenue split. It's excellent coaching software, but less purpose-built for your two-provider financial structure.

What I'd choose

I wouldn't make Kajabi my first choice for your situation. Kajabi is strong for selling structured coaching programs, marketing, and payments, but your defining requirement is a small agency with two coaches and revenue allocation, where Practice Better's team billing model is a more direct fit. www.kajabi.com

Bottom line: Start with Practice Better Team if $155/month is tolerable even in slow months. If that fixed cost feels uncomfortable given your cash-flow variability, test CoachAccountable first.

If you tell me roughly how you split revenue (e.g. 50/50, coach keeps 70%, agency takes 30%) and whether clients pay the agency or individual coaches, I can recommend the cleanest setup for payments + splits.

For your setup, I’d shortlist CoachVantage first, with CoachAccountable as the stronger-but-heavier alternative.

My pick: coachvantage.com

It fits a two-coach boutique agency with uneven revenue unusually well:

• 1:1: supports packages, pay-as-you-go/session-by-session coaching, scheduling, payments, contracts, and client portals. CoachVantage
• Groups: supports group programs and cohorts, so you can run a cohort alongside individual coaching. CoachVantage
• Irregular cash flow: you can charge one-time, installment, or recurring monthly payments through Stripe/PayPal rather than committing clients to a single upfront payment. CoachVantage
• Low fixed cost: the Aha! plan is currently $49/month ($44/month annually) and includes unlimited group programs and 1:1 program sales pages. CoachVantage
• No platform commission: CoachVantage says it doesn't charge commissions on sales; you pay the normal payment-processor fees. CoachVantage

The catch: revenue splitting

This is the one place I'd not assume the platform does what you mean.

If by "simple revenue split" you mean something like:

Client pays $2,000 → Coach A gets 60%, Coach B gets 40%

CoachVantage doesn't appear to have native automated coach payouts/split payments. I'd instead use one business Stripe account + a simple monthly coach-compensation report.

If you want the platform to help administer a genuine multi-coach practice, coachaccountable.com is worth a look. Its Team Edition supports multiple coaches, client-to-coach assignment, team reporting, and coach-hour reports. It explicitly says it doesn't move money from the business to coaches, though, so the actual revenue split still happens outside the platform. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable

What I'd choose

I would start with CoachVantage, keep all client revenue flowing through the agency, and calculate the two coaches' shares monthly. That avoids paying for a heavyweight enterprise system before your cash flow warrants it.

One important distinction: Paperbell is arguably even simpler and cheaper for 1:1 + small groups ($57/month), but it's fundamentally oriented toward individual coaches rather than a two-coach agency with shared revenue. Paperbell Paperbell

If your revenue split is specifically "the coach who delivers the session gets X%, agency keeps Y%", I can also recommend the cleanest platform + Stripe + bookkeeping workflow for that model.

For a 2-coach boutique coaching agency with uneven monthly revenue, I’d prioritize low fixed cost + multi-coach support + ability to split payouts cleanly. You probably don’t need a heavyweight enterprise LMS yet.

My top recommendation:

Best fit: Practice.do + Stripe Connect (or manual coach payouts)

Why it fits

• Built around coaching delivery rather than just courses
• Supports client management, notes, packages, scheduling, and recurring coaching relationships
• Better suited to a two-coach team than solo-coach tools
• Lets you keep your own brand/client relationship

Tradeoff: it’s more of a coaching operations platform than a “sell a group cohort with community” platform, so you may still want a community/course layer later. www.coachli.co

If your priority is cash-flow flexibility: Talkspresso

This is worth looking at because your revenue is irregular:

• No large upfront commitment
• Supports 1:1 sessions, group programs, workshops, booking, video, and payments
• Uses a transaction-based model rather than forcing a large monthly subscription talkspresso.com

Best for: a boutique agency still testing offers and volume.

Potential issue: revenue splitting between two internal coaches may require checking whether their payout model matches your desired arrangement.

If group programs are becoming your main offer: Kajabi

Good for:

• Cohort programs
• Courses
• Membership/community
• Email marketing funnels
• Higher-ticket offers

Less ideal for:

• Simple two-person revenue splits
• Lean operations during slow months

Many coaching businesses use it once they have predictable sales volume. coachtoolery.com

What I would avoid for your situation

• Enterprise coaching CRMs: too much overhead for two coaches.
• Pure scheduling tools (Calendly + Zoom + Stripe): cheap, but you’ll end up stitching together client records, programs, and group delivery.
• Course-first platforms if most revenue still comes from human coaching.

My suggested setup for your agency

Stage 1 (now: irregular revenue)

• Coaching platform with transaction-friendly pricing
• Stripe for payments
• Simple coach split rule:
  • Agency keeps X%
  • Delivering coach receives Y%
  • Shared costs deducted before split

Stage 2 (predictable cohorts)

• Move group programs into a stronger community/course platform
• Keep 1:1 delivery separate if needed

If I were choosing for a two-coach boutique today, I’d shortlist:

1. Talkspresso — lowest risk while revenue fluctuates
2. Practice.do — strongest coaching-business foundation
3. Kajabi — when group programs become a major revenue stream

The deciding question is: are your two coaches independent contractors who need automatic payouts, or are they partners/employees where you just need internal revenue tracking? That changes the best choice quite a bit.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist CoachAccountable first.

My pick: CoachAccountable

CoachAccountable is unusually well matched to your setup because it covers:

• 1:1 coaching: scheduling, recurring appointments, session notes, client plans, reminders, and Zoom integration.
• Group programs: group sessions, shared resources, metrics, assignments, and discussion.
• Programs/courses: useful if your group offering becomes a repeatable cohort.
• Two coaches: its Team Edition supports multiple coaches without charging extra per team member; you can pair individual clients with the appropriate coach. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable
• Irregular cash flow: pricing is based on active clients rather than requiring a large fixed enterprise commitment. Its current pricing information also says there are no extra charges for team members. CoachAccountable CoachAccountable
• Revenue split: this is the important caveat—it doesn't actually split/move revenue between coaches. It can report appointment hours/activity, giving you the numbers to calculate your agreed split, but payroll/coach payouts remain outside the platform. CoachAccountable

So I'd use a simple model such as:

Client pays agency → CoachAccountable tracks the engagement → monthly report shows each coach's sessions/revenue → agency calculates the agreed percentage → coaches are paid through your normal accounting/payroll process.

That is probably cleaner for a two-person agency than introducing a platform whose main selling point is marketplace-style revenue sharing.

Runner-up: Kajabi

Kajabi is stronger if selling and marketing group programs is becoming a major part of the business. It supports both 1:1 and group coaching, built-in scheduling/payments, recurring or one-time offers, community, email automation, and live group sessions. Kajabi

The tradeoff: it's more of an all-in-one business/marketing platform than a lean coaching-operations platform. For two coaches with uneven revenue, I wouldn't pay for all that infrastructure unless you're actually going to use it.

What I'd choose

Bottom line: Start with CoachAccountable. It gives you the coaching infrastructure you actually need without forcing a small two-coach agency into a heavyweight marketing stack. Keep the revenue split outside the platform—e.g., 60/40 per delivered session or a percentage of collected revenue—and use its activity reports to reconcile it monthly.

If by “revenue split” you specifically mean the platform should automatically collect a client's payment and send Coach A 60% / Coach B 40%, that's a different requirement. In that case, I'd evaluate payment platforms specifically around Stripe Connect-style split payouts, rather than choosing purely from coaching software.

For a 2-coach boutique coaching agency with irregular cash flow, I’d prioritize platforms that:

1. Don’t lock you into a large monthly commitment
2. Let each coach run their own sessions/programs
3. Handle payments automatically
4. Make revenue sharing easy (coach split, agency fee, or payout rules)

My shortlist:

My recommendation for your specific situation

I’d choose one of these two setups:

Option A — Lowest risk while cash flow is uneven

Talkspresso or Lokul

• Minimal upfront cost
• Payments collected at booking
• Easier when revenue fluctuates
• Less admin around splitting money between two coaches talkspresso.comlokul.app

Good if:

• You’re still validating offers
• Each coach has separate clients
• You want money flow automated

Option B — Build a more valuable agency asset

Practice Better + Stripe + bookkeeping split

• Agency owns the client experience
• Coaches deliver sessions
• You can pay coaches 60/40, 70/30, flat fee, etc.
• Better long-term if you plan to add coaches

How I’d structure revenue splits internally

For a two-coach boutique agency, keep it simple:

1:1 clients

• Coach who delivers: 60–75%
• Agency: 25–40% (marketing, admin, platform, sales)

Group programs

• Lead coach: 40–50%
• Supporting coach: 20–30%
• Agency: 20–40%

Agency-generated leads

• Higher agency share

Coach-owned leads

• Higher coach share

I would avoid choosing a platform purely because it “splits revenue.” A platform taking 10–20% of every transaction can become expensive once you’re doing consistent volume. For a small agency, owning the payment flow and doing your own split often gives you more control.

If you expect under ~$10k/month revenue for the next year, I’d lean toward a low-fixed-cost tool. If you expect to scale to multiple coaches and cohorts, I’d build around a practice-management platform instead.

For a 2-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist these:

1. Best fit: CoachAccountable

CoachAccountable

This is probably the strongest fit if your priority is coaching operations rather than marketing.

• Supports 1:1 coaching, groups, courses, recurring billing, packages, scheduling, notes, and client portals. www.coachaccountable.com
• Pricing starts at $20/month for 2 active clients, then scales with active clients rather than requiring a large fixed subscription. That's particularly attractive with irregular cash flow. www.coachaccountable.com
• Doesn't take a percentage of your coaching revenue; payment processing fees come from Stripe, Square, or PayPal. www.coachaccountable.com
• Its team edition lets you pair clients with particular coaches and gives you reporting on coach activity/hours—useful for calculating your internal revenue split. www.coachaccountable.com

Caveat: it doesn't actually distribute money to coaches. You'd use its reports to calculate, say, a 60/40 split and pay the coach separately. www.coachaccountable.com

2. Best if you want true automated revenue splitting: Better Coaching

Better Coaching

This is unusually well aligned with your two-coach agency + revenue split requirement. It uses Stripe Connect so each coach can connect their own Stripe account, while the agency keeps a configurable platform fee from each transaction. bettercoachapp.comwww.coachaccountable.com

It also supports:

• 1:1 booking and live sessions
• Group webinars/programs
• Payments
• Coach-specific payouts
• Your own branded domain
• No per-coach seat charge

So, for example, you could structure a $1,000 program as 70% to the delivering coach / 30% agency, with the platform handling the underlying payout flow.

Caveat: it's a newer/nicher platform, so I'd pilot it with a small program before making it your core system.

3. Kajabi — best if marketing is becoming the bigger problem

Kajabi

Kajabi is much more of an all-in-one business platform. It supports both 1:1 and group coaching, scheduling, recurring/one-time payments, community, email automation, checkout, and program delivery. bettercoachapp.comwww.kajabi.comwww.coachaccountable.com

I'd choose it if you expect to sell group cohorts + courses + memberships + coaching and want marketing infrastructure in the same system.

But for your current situation, I wouldn't pay for Kajabi's broader ecosystem unless you actually need it.

My recommendation

For a two-person agency, I'd start with Better Coaching if automated splits are a must-have; otherwise, CoachAccountable is the safer, more established operational choice.

One important distinction: “revenue split” can mean two different things. If you mean “the platform should automatically send 70% to Coach A and 30% to the agency”, Better Coaching is the standout. If you simply mean “track each coach's revenue so we can settle up monthly”, CoachAccountable is likely the better value. bettercoachapp.comwww.coachaccountable.com

For a two-coach boutique agency with uneven revenue, I’d shortlist CoachAccountable and Paperbell, with CoachAccountable as the better agency fit.

My pick: CoachAccountable.

It specifically supports a coaching team without charging extra per team member, lets you pair coaches with particular clients, and provides reporting on appointment activity. That makes it much easier to calculate something like “Coach A gets 40% of collected revenue from these clients; Coach B gets 50% from those programs.” It doesn't actually transfer the money between your agency and coaches, though—you'd use the reports to calculate payouts and handle them through payroll/accounting. www.coachaccountable.com

It also handles 1:1 sessions, group coaching, courses/programs, scheduling, invoicing, and payments through Stripe/Square/PayPal. Importantly for irregular cash flow, its subscription is based on active clients, so you can deactivate clients during slow periods rather than paying based on seats or a large fixed enterprise plan. www.coachaccountable.com

When I'd choose Paperbell instead

Paperbell is the better choice if simplicity is more important than agency accounting. It's currently $57/month, with unlimited clients/sessions and no additional transaction fee from Paperbell. It supports 1:1 packages, subscriptions, payment plans, group programs, and even packages mixing group and 1:1 sessions. paperbell.com

The catch is your revenue split: Paperbell sends payments directly to the coach's Stripe/PayPal account rather than holding the funds, so it's not really designed as a central agency → coach commission system. www.coachaccountable.comwww.coachaccountable.compaperbell.com

Bottom line:

• Agency with two coaches + evolving revenue-share arrangements → CoachAccountable
• Very lean operation where one person mostly administers everything → Paperbell
• I would not overbuy an enterprise/creator platform yet given your irregular cash flow.

If your split is something specific like 50/50 on 1:1, 30/70 on group programs, and the agency keeps payment-processing fees, CoachAccountable is the one I'd investigate first.

For a 2-coach boutique agency with uneven cash flow, I’d prioritize a platform that has:

1. Low fixed cost (so slow months don’t hurt)
2. Built-in payments (collect before sessions)
3. Support for both private coaching and cohorts
4. Simple coach payout/revenue sharing (avoid manual spreadsheets)

My shortlist:

My recommendation for your exact setup

Start with Talkspresso or Paperbell.

• Choose Talkspresso if your priority is:
  • minimizing monthly overhead
  • getting paid upfront
  • running both 1:1 and group sessions without assembling tools

agiled.apptalkspresso.com

• Choose Paperbell if your priority is:
  • premium coaching packages
  • client agreements
  • a polished purchase → contract → booking workflow

agiled.app

For a two-coach agency, I’d probably structure revenue internally like this:

• Agency account owns all offers and payments
• Each program has a coach assignment
• Split rules:
  • 1:1 sessions: e.g., 60–75% coach / 25–40% agency
  • Group programs: e.g., 40–60% delivery pool / remainder for marketing, admin, platform, sales
  • Lead generation bonus: extra percentage if one coach brings the client

I would avoid a platform that forces you into a marketplace split unless you specifically want lead generation. For an established boutique agency, keeping the customer relationship and controlling your margins is usually more valuable.

If you tell me:

• your monthly client volume,
• average 1:1 price,
• group program price,
• whether both coaches are contractors or partners,

I can narrow this to one platform and a payout model.

For a 2-coach boutique agency with uneven monthly revenue, I’d prioritize:

1. Low fixed cost (avoid paying for unused capacity)
2. Client payments before delivery (reduce cash-flow swings)
3. Both private + cohort delivery
4. Simple coach payout tracking (especially if one coach owns delivery and you split revenue)

My shortlist:

My recommendation for your specific setup

Best overall: Mentoring Page + Stripe

• Create offers:
  • Coach A 1:1 package
  • Coach B 1:1 package
  • Joint group program
  • Premium hybrid package (group + private sessions)
• Each coach can receive their own revenue stream, or you can reconcile a shared pool.
• Lower risk during slow months because you are not paying a large SaaS bill. mentoringpage.com

Best if cash flow is very unpredictable: Talkspresso

• The transaction-based model is attractive when you have months with few clients because costs rise only when revenue comes in. talkspresso.com

Best if your agency is becoming a “program business”: Practice Better or Ruzuku

• Choose these if your value is in a repeatable framework, curriculum, worksheets, milestones, and cohorts rather than just calls. www.ruzuku.com

For your revenue split, I’d avoid relying on the platform

Most coaching platforms are built for one coach → one business, not a two-coach agency. A simple internal model usually works better:

• 1:1 sessions: coach keeps 70–80%, agency keeps 20–30% for marketing/admin
• Group programs: split after expenses (e.g., 50/50 if both coaches deliver; 60/40 if one leads)
• Lead ownership: define whether inbound leads belong to the agency or the individual coach

For a two-person boutique agency, I would not overbuild this. A lightweight platform plus a clear monthly payout spreadsheet is usually enough until you have several coaches or a large client base.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d prioritize low fixed cost + 1:1/group support + easy payment collection over a feature-heavy enterprise platform.

My top pick: Paperbell

Paperbell is probably the best fit if by “revenue split” you mean you want to sell through one agency account and then divide revenue between the two coaches yourselves.

Why:

• Supports 1:1 packages, group coaching, and mixed 1:1 + group packages. paperbell.com
• Handles payments, payment plans, contracts, scheduling and client onboarding in one place. paperbell.com
• Its relatively simple model is better suited to a small agency than a heavyweight coaching CRM.
• Most importantly for irregular cash flow, you're not buying a huge infrastructure stack just to support two coaches.

Caveat: Paperbell doesn't appear to provide a native “Coach A gets 60%, Coach B gets 40%” payout mechanism. I'd treat the agency as the merchant of record and pay coaches from the agency's collected revenue.

If automated revenue splitting is the priority

Take a look at ArkHub. It supports both 1:1 services and group/cohort programs and uses a revenue-share model rather than a subscription. It says 1:1 service revenue is split 85% to the educator / 15% to ArkHub, while programs are 75% / 25%. arkhub.com

That's attractive for irregular cash flow because you're paying the platform when you earn rather than carrying another monthly SaaS bill. The tradeoff is that it's more of an educator marketplace/platform model than a polished private agency operating system.

What I'd choose for your agency

If your “revenue split” means “Client pays $2,000 → automatically send 60% to Coach A and 40% to Coach B”, that's the one requirement that changes my recommendation. In that case, I'd look specifically for a Stripe Connect-style platform with multi-party payouts, rather than a conventional coaching platform.

For your size, I'd favor simple agency-controlled accounting over paying a platform a percentage of every sale unless automated payouts are worth the tradeoff.

For a 2-coach boutique agency with uneven monthly revenue, I’d shortlist these:

1. Practice Better — best overall fit

This is the one I’d pick if you want one system for both coaches, rather than stitching together scheduling + payments + group-program software.

• 1:1 coaching: scheduling, video sessions, payments, client portal, packages.
• Group programs: group scheduling/chat, fixed-date programs, evergreen programs, memberships, and payment plans. practicebetter.io
• Two coaches: the Team plan starts at $155/month and includes 2 practitioner licenses. practicebetter.iopracticebetter.io
• Revenue split: this is where it gets interesting. You can either have the agency centrally collect payments through managed billing, or let each coach connect their own payment processor. Practice Better also supports shared packages and joint programs. practicebetter.io

Why it fits your irregular cash flow: you can keep fixed software overhead relatively predictable while handling coach compensation separately. For example, the agency could collect all revenue, then pay Coach A/B their agreed percentage each month.

Downside: $155/month is a meaningful fixed cost when revenue is lumpy, and Practice Better is somewhat more "practice management" oriented than a pure coaching-sales platform.

2. Paperbell — best if simplicity matters most

Paperbell is much simpler: $57/month, unlimited clients/sessions, packages, scheduling, payments, contracts, and client portal, with no additional transaction fee. paperbell.com

I'd consider it if your group programs are relatively straightforward and you don't need sophisticated team management.

The catch for your use case is the two-coach/revenue-split model. Paperbell is fundamentally designed around individual coaches, so you'd likely need an agreed internal process for allocating revenue rather than getting the kind of team billing controls Practice Better provides.

My recommendation

Choose Practice Better Team if your business model is:

Agency sells → client pays agency → revenue gets allocated between the two coaches.

It gives you the cleanest foundation for 1:1 + cohorts/group programs + two coaches + centralized finances. The Team plan explicitly supports both centralized managed billing and independent practitioner billing, which is unusually useful for a small agency. practicebetter.iopracticebetter.io

If your priority is instead "keep our fixed costs as low as possible and don't over-engineer this," I'd go with Paperbell.

One important distinction: neither platform appears to provide a native "automatically split every $1 received 60/40 between Coach A and Coach B" model. I'd therefore define the revenue split contractually (e.g., 60% coach / 40% agency after payment processing) and use the platform's reporting/payment data to settle it monthly. Practice Better is considerably better suited to that arrangement because of its team/managed-billing functionality. practicebetter.io

If you tell me your typical monthly revenue, average 1:1 price, group-program price, and desired coach/agency split, I can compare the economics of these two for you.

For a two-coach boutique agency with uneven revenue, I’d prioritize low fixed cost, flexible payment collection, and—crucially—easy handling of coach payouts.

My top pick: Better Coaching

Better Coaching is the closest match to your requirements.

• 1:1: booking, payment, calendar invites, live video, and recordings are built in.
• Groups: supports group webinars/live coaching.
• Two coaches: it is explicitly designed for multi-coach businesses.
• Revenue split: Stripe Connect lets each coach connect their own Stripe account, while your agency takes a configurable platform fee from each transaction. Payouts go directly to the coach. bettercoachapp.com
• Irregular cash flow: the economics are transaction-oriented rather than requiring a large per-coach SaaS commitment, which is attractive when some months are quiet.

The big advantage is that you can structure something like agency 20% / coach 80% without manually reconciling every session. Stripe Connect supports configurable splits and payout timing as well. stripe.com

Runner-up: Paperbell — if you don't need automated splitting

Paperbell is probably the simplest coaching-specific platform. It handles 1:1 packages, group programs, mixed 1:1 + group packages, subscriptions, payment plans, scheduling, contracts and client management. It's currently $57/month, with unlimited clients/sessions/packages. paperbell.com

But there's a major catch for you: Paperbell is designed for one coach per account. Each coach receives payments into their own Stripe/PayPal account, so it doesn't natively function as an agency with automatic revenue splitting. paperbell.com

You could run two Paperbell accounts and reconcile the agency share manually, but I'd avoid that if revenue splitting is an important part of your operating model.

What I'd choose

Recommendation: start with Better Coaching if the agency wants to own the client relationship and automatically retain a percentage of every sale. If each coach is effectively an independent business and you're comfortable settling the split manually, Paperbell is the simpler and more mature-feeling choice.

One caveat: Better Coaching is a newer/smaller platform than Paperbell, so I'd test the client checkout, Stripe Connect onboarding, refunds, and group-program workflow with a real $1 transaction before migrating your whole operation.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d lean toward Kajabi if you want one system that can handle both delivery and revenue collection.

Best fit: Kajabi

It supports 1:1 coaching, group/cohort programs, scheduling, client access, payments, and communities in one platform. www.kajabi.com

The biggest advantage for your situation is that you can sell either one-off/recurring coaching or structured group programs without stitching together several tools. Kajabi also says its platform has no revenue-sharing fee; you pay the subscription plus payment-processing fees. www.kajabi.comwww.kajabi.com

For two coaches, the current Basic plan includes 2 admin users, which is a particularly good fit for your team size. www.kajabi.com

One caveat: if by “simple revenue split” you mean automatically splitting each client's payment between Coach A and Coach B, I would not assume Kajabi does that natively. Its payments system handles payouts, but you may need to calculate the coach split internally and pay coaches separately. www.kajabi.comwww.kajabi.com

Alternative: HoneyBook

If your priority is cash-flow flexibility and straightforward financial administration rather than a sophisticated coaching experience, HoneyBook is worth considering. It supports deposits, installments, recurring payments, invoices, and payment schedules, which can be useful when revenue is uneven. help.honeybook.com

But I'd choose Kajabi if group programs are a meaningful part of your business, because its coaching/group-program and community capabilities are much more central to the product.

My recommendation: Kajabi for the client-facing platform + a very simple internal coach-compensation spreadsheet/process for the revenue split. That keeps your fixed software stack small while accommodating irregular revenue.

For a two-coach boutique agency with irregular cash flow, I’d shortlist these:

Best fit: Paperbell

Paperbell is probably the best match if you want simple operations rather than a giant all-in-one platform. It supports 1:1 packages, group coaching, payment plans/subscriptions, and even packages that mix 1:1 and group sessions. paperbell.com

Why I’d choose it: low operational overhead, flexible packaging, and good fit for uneven revenue.

Caveat: its revenue-split/team functionality isn't as strong a match as a platform specifically designed around multiple coaches.

Best for your revenue-split requirement: Better Coaching

This is particularly interesting for your agency because it explicitly supports multiple coaches with Stripe Connect: each coach connects their own Stripe account, payments can go directly to them, and the platform keeps a configurable platform fee. It also handles branded 1:1 booking and group webinars. bettercoachapp.com

That makes it the most directly aligned with a "client pays → coach gets their share → agency gets its share" model.

Best if you're building a bigger coaching business: Kajabi Coaching

Kajabi supports both 1:1 and group coaching, structured programs, payments, scheduling, community, and marketing. www.kajabi.com

I'd pick it if you expect to develop courses, memberships, funnels, and a larger content business. For just two coaches with irregular cash flow, though, it may be more platform than you need.

My recommendation

Start by evaluating Better Coaching and Paperbell side-by-side.

• Need clean coach/agency revenue splitting: Better Coaching
• Need the simplest possible coaching business admin: Paperbell
• Need marketing + courses + community + coaching in one ecosystem: Kajabi

One important distinction: if by “revenue split” you mean the platform automatically calculates and distributes, say, 60% to Coach A and 40% to the agency, Better Coaching is the strongest fit of these options because its Stripe Connect model is explicitly built for multi-coach payouts. bettercoachapp.com

If you tell me roughly monthly revenue, typical session price, and your desired coach/agency split, I can narrow this to the most economical setup.

For a 2-coach boutique coaching agency with uneven monthly revenue, I’d prioritize:

1. Low fixed cost (avoid a big SaaS bill during slow months)
2. Built-in payments (reduce chasing invoices)
3. Separate coach attribution (know who earned what)
4. 1:1 + cohort/group delivery in the same system
5. Simple split rules (e.g., Coach A gets 60%, agency keeps 40%)

My shortlist:

My recommendation for your situation

Best overall: HoneyBook + a simple payout process
For a two-person agency, I would avoid overbuilding. Use:

• HoneyBook for:
  • discovery calls
  • contracts
  • client onboarding
  • invoices/payment plans
  • package sales

• A scheduling/video tool your coaches already like for delivery

• A monthly revenue spreadsheet or accounting rule:
  • Revenue received
  • Payment processing fees
  • Agency percentage
  • Coach percentage
  • Coach payout date

This is usually cleaner than forcing a platform to manage splits.

If you want everything in one place:

I’d look at Talkspresso or similar lightweight coaching platforms first because your cash flow is irregular and they avoid a large monthly commitment. Talkspresso specifically positions itself around booking, video, payments, and group coaching with transaction-based pricing. talkspresso.com

If your group programs are becoming your main revenue:

Use Ruzuku or Kajabi for the program layer, then keep coach compensation separate. Group coaching platforms are generally stronger at curriculum/community than at agency-style commission accounting. www.ruzuku.com

A simple split structure I’d use for a two-coach agency:

• Agency-generated lead: 50/50 or 60/40 agency/coach
• Coach-generated lead: 20–30% agency fee
• Group program delivery: split by teaching hours or enrollment ownership

One question changes the recommendation quite a bit: do you need the platform to automatically pay each coach their share, or is a monthly internal payout process acceptable?
