What is async coaching and how did Ari get started?

Ari shifted from weekly calls to async to handle more clients and reduce time strain.
It started as an experiment using Voxer—and clients immediately said yes.
He quickly found he could coach 6 clients in 20 minutes a day, without losing depth.

Why async beats traditional coaching—for everyone

Coaches respond more thoughtfully, clearly, and intentionally.

Clients open up with timely, deeper insights.

Trust builds faster without live pressure.

What problems does async coaching solve?

Clients can express thoughts in real time, before they forget.
Coaches respond when energy and focus are highest.
Frequent, smaller shifts are easier to act on than big leaps.

How do you practically roll out async coaching?

Give clients the choice: wait weeks for a call or start async today.
Use a personal link (like talkto[you].com) to make entry effortless.
Prompt the conversation—most people switch once they experience the speed and depth.

How do you help clients get comfortable?

Ask a simple question to spark conversation and show how async works.
Reinforce the benefits—faster and more thoughtful replies, transcripts, and ongoing support.
Reframe async as having a “coach in your pocket” for real-time access.

How does async coaching support habit-building and accountability?

Clients hear from their coach more often—daily or weekly—without pressure.
Ongoing voice threads help reinforce goals and keep progress visible.
Group broadcasts and nudges offer lightweight, scalable accountability.

How do you price async coaching when it’s “unlimited”?

Price based on impact, not hours—clients pay for results, not time.
Unlimited async access doesn’t mean constant use, just flexible support.
Tiered options can add structured sync time for teams or partners.

Does async coaching actually save time?

Short, flexible replies replace long, scheduled sessions.
You can listen, reflect, and respond on your own time—even while multitasking.
Set no fixed response times—clients naturally adjust based on message length.

How do you structure your day for async messages?

Messages are handled between tasks—like during walks, chores, or drives.
Multitasking actually improves focus, especially for ADHD minds.
AI summaries reduce the need to relisten, saving time and mental energy.

What challenges or surprises came with adopting async coaching?

Going “unlimited” felt risky at first, but actually improved time use and flexibility.
Async makes it easier to qualify leads and repurpose conversations into content.
Biggest surprise: coaching while walking, pacing, or doing chores boosts thinking.

How are teams using Carbon Voice today?

Teams and people are choosing Carbon Voice to cut down on the hassle of phone calls and meetings. It's perfect for when a quick chat on Slack or an email thread needs to turn into a deeper conversation. Instead of struggling to schedule a call and wasting time just trying to connect, Carbon Voice makes it easy to jump right into talking. After a call, it’s common to forget or lose track of what was said, but Carbon Voice helps keep everything clear and organized. We've heard from users like a CEO who told us that with Carbon Voice, he can handle five to six important conversations at once. Normally, these would have been separate calls or meetings that might not even fit into his busy schedule. Carbon Voice lets him and others move faster, especially when they need to make big decisions and share them quickly. The best part? Carbon Voice fits into any part of your day. You can catch up on conversations while doing everyday things like driving or doing chores at home. It’s all about making communication quicker, covering more ground, and having deeper talks without tying up your schedule. Learn more about how to use Carbon Voice in your workflow.
What makes Carbon Voice different from other messaging apps?

Carbon Voice uniquely offers multi-modal flexibility, allowing users to choose how they communicate—whether reading, listening, speaking, or typing. This isn't about replacing existing tools like WhatsApp or Slack, which have their roles in our workflows. Instead, Carbon Voice shines when a text-based conversation needs to shift into a more dynamic, voice-driven discussion. This switch can happen effortlessly, enhancing conversations with the depth and nuance of voice, all without the need to schedule more meetings or wait for aligned time zones. With Carbon Voice, we've crafted a seamless experience that captures the richness of audio communication while retaining the convenience of text, ensuring that every conversation feels natural and effective.
If I send a message to someone who does not have the Carbon Voice app, can they still listen and reply?

Absolutely! The recipient doesn't need to have the Carbon Voice app installed to listen to and reply to your messages. They can interact with you whether they're an existing user or not. Plus, we offer an easy-to-use web app, and we're excited to announce that a desktop app will be available soon!
How is Carbon Voice enterprise-ready and secure?

Carbon Voice is designed with businesses in mind, offering robust enterprise features such as Single Sign-On (SSO), workspace and access management, and retention policies to meet the unique needs of business communication. Additionally, security is a top priority for us. All conversations on Carbon Voice are encrypted end-to-end, ensuring user privacy and data integrity to provide a secure communication platform for all users.
