Instagram carousel template for coaches
An Instagram carousel for coaches teaches one idea across six to nine slides.
What goes in it
The cover promises the idea in under ten words, each slide carries one point with a short headline and a line or two under it, and the last slide sums up and asks for one action, such as save or follow. Build it from what you already teach clients, so it sounds like you.
Under 30 words per slide.

When to send it
When to send it
- When a question keeps coming up in check-ins.
- When a client win shows a principle worth teaching.
- When you want a post people save and come back to.
Common mistakes
- Three ideas on one slide.
- A cover that names the topic instead of promising the payoff.
- Ending without an ask.

Bring the client's record
Their intake, check-ins and messages, pasted, dropped or imported into that client's record.

It can't make up a number
Every weight, date and figure Fen writes is checked against the client's own words, and a load or macro target is computed from your rules. One with no source is flagged, never guessed.

You decide what goes out
At default settings nothing reaches a client until you press. Email replies go out from your own Gmail when you press Approve and send.
Questions
- How many slides should a carousel have?
- Six to nine: enough to teach one idea properly, short enough that people reach the last slide.
- Where does Fenlio get the ideas?
- From your own method and notes, so the carousel teaches what you actually coach.
