Offer Sheet Templates for Coaches: Live Streams, Serialized Courses, and Microdrama Ads
Download customizable offer sheets, pricing tools, SOPs and client-agreement snippets to launch live streams, serialized courses, and microdrama ads fast.
Launch profitable offers faster: downloadable offer sheets and checklists built for coaches who sell live streams, serialized courses, and microdrama ads
Struggling to price with confidence, turn a one-off idea into a repeatable product, or get legal and operationals in order before you sell? This guide gives you plug-and-play offer sheet templates, pricing calculators, SOPs, and client-agreement language so you can price, package, and launch three high-conversion offers in days — not weeks.
Why this matters in 2026
Short-form serialized content and vertical microdramas accelerated in late 2025 — investors poured new capital into platforms optimized for mobile-first episodic video, and publishers expanded distributed live features. Companies like Holywater raised fresh funding to scale AI-driven vertical video (Jan 2026), and social networks added live-stream badges and discovery hooks that make live events easier to monetize.
For coaches and small agencies, that means new demand and formats to monetize: live streams with paid access, serialized modular courses (drip + subscription combos), and short-story microdrama ads designed for feeds and vertical platforms. But the missing piece for many sellers is operational: clean offer sheets, clear deliverables, and an SOP that ties booking, payments, and CRM together.
What you get (and why these templates save hours)
- Three offer sheets (Live Stream Offer, Serialized Course Offer, Microdrama Ad Brief) — copy-ready and customizable.
- Pricing calculator template — unit-cost + margin + performance tiers built in.
- Deliverables checklist and production timeline for each product type.
- SOP checklist that connects intake → booking → production → delivery → reporting.
- Client agreement snippets focused on scope, revisions, IP, and AI/consent clauses (critical in 2026).
- CRM & payments checklist: recommended fields, automations, and integrations (Stripe, PayPal, Acuity/Calendly, HubSpot/Keap).

Template A — Live Stream Offer Sheet (copy + fields)
Live streams sell when the value exchange is clear: what attendees learn, how exclusive access is delivered, and what follow-up they receive. Use this offer sheet to make that explicit.
Header fields (replace with your branding)
- Offer name: [e.g., Masterclass: 90-Min Growth Sprint]
- Date & Time / Timezones:
- Format: Live webinar (Zoom), hybrid Q&A, interactive workshop
- Price options: Early-bird / Standard / VIP
- Seats: Limited / Open
Deliverables (short, tangible list)
- 90-minute live session + 30-minute Q&A
- Recording delivered within 48 hours (MP4 + transcript)
- Downloadable slide deck and checklist
- Optional VIP add-on: 30-min 1:1 audit within 14 days
Pricing examples (2026 market guide)
Adjust based on audience size and perceived value:
- Small (email list <5k): $49–$199
- Mid (5k–50k): $199–$799
- Established authority / cohort-based VIP: $997–$5,000
Offer tiering tip: include a paid replay-only ticket and a VIP ticket that bundles 1:1 time or a downloadable kit.
Sample client-facing language
Book the Growth Sprint live workshop for your team — deliverables include live training, a full recording, and an implementation checklist. Seats strictly limited to 100 to preserve interactivity.
Operational checklist (live stream)
- Finalize offer sheet and pricing → sign client agreement
- Create registration page and payment link (Stripe/PayPal)
- Automate confirmation + calendar invite (Calendly or Acuity)
- Run tech rehearsal 48 hours before (test audio, video, slides). Consider compact home studio kits and budget vlogging kit checklists for reliable audio/video.
- Record and transcode; deliver assets and follow-up email sequence
Template B — Serialized Course Offer Sheet (copy + fields)
Serialized courses are modular, often delivered as weekly episodes or lessons. In 2026, coaches are packaging serialized learning as subscription cohorts and vertical-first micro-episodes optimized for mobile.
Header fields
- Course title & cohort:
- Delivery cadence: Weekly / Bi-weekly / Daily micro-episodes
- Format: Video lessons, worksheets, live Q&A
- Access length: 6 weeks / 12 weeks / ongoing membership
Core deliverables
- X pre-recorded lessons (5–20 min each) delivered weekly
- Weekly live office hours (30–60 minutes)
- Downloadable worksheets and accountability checklist
- Private community access (Slack/Discord/Facebook Group) — consider how community discovery works (see Telegram’s role in micro-events as an example of platform-driven communities)
Pricing models & examples
Serialized courses can be sold via:
- One-time cohort fee: $497–$5,000 (dependent on outcome promise)
- Subscription: $39–$199/month (membership access to rolling episodes)
- Payment plans: 3× or 6× automated billing
- Performance/revenue share: 10–30% of net revenue for distribution partners
Deliverable schedule (example 8-week cohort)
- Week 0: Welcome & orientation; pre-work worksheet
- Weeks 1–6: Weekly lesson + live Q&A
- Week 7: Implementation workshop
- Week 8: Graduation + upsell offer
SOP highlights (serialized course)
- Confirm scope & sign contract with clear module count and revision limits
- Script lesson outlines; batch-record when possible using AI-assisted tools (Gemini-style guided scripting helps speed production)
- Edit, caption, and quality-check video before scheduled release
- Automate drip schedule inside LMS (Teachable, Thinkific, Kajabi, or MemberVault)
- Measure retention by week and run re-engagement emails for drop-offs
Template C — Microdrama Ad Campaign Brief & Offer Sheet
Microdrama ads (short-story ads) are narrative-first, emotional shorts for vertical feeds. Platforms and funding in early 2026 made this format more valuable — brands want serialized mini-episodes that double as ads and hooks.
Brief header fields
- Campaign name & objective: Awareness / Lead gen / Direct response
- Episode count & length: e.g., 6 × 30–60s vertical episodes
- Distribution: Organic + Paid (TikTok, Reels, Holywater-style vertical platforms). For platform selection and distribution strategy see creator distribution guides.
- Target CPA or CPL:
Production deliverables
- Shoot plan & script for each episode
- Filmed vertical edits (short-form cuts: 15s / 30s / 60s)
- Subtitles, thumbnail images, and CTA overlays
- Ad reporting dashboard setup (UTM + pixel + conversion tracking)
Pricing frameworks
Base your pricing on complexity, production days, and distribution spend:
- Low production — storyboards + 1-day shoot: $3k–$8k
- Mid production — 2–4 day shoot + actor fees: $8k–$25k
- High production — episodic series, professional cast: $25k–$100k+
- Optional: Performance-based fee tied to CPL or sales with a baseline retainer
Ad brief checklist (pre-shoot)
- Lock scripts and storyboards
- Confirm rights & releases for cast (digital consent forms)
- Confirm platforms & creative specs (vertical aspect ratios, captions)
- Establish measurement plan + attribution windows
Client Agreement Essentials (snippet bank)
Paste these into your contracts or use them as negotiation anchors. Tailor to local law and consult your lawyer for formal use.
Scope & deliverables
Scope: Detailed list of deliverables, number of revisions, acceptance timeline, and change-order fees.
Payment terms
- Deposit: 30–50% due at signing for projects & production
- Milestone payments: balance due on delivery or staged by production milestones
- Late fees: X% per 30 days for overdue invoices — see sample invoice templates for wording and schedule examples
IP and usage rights
Specify licensing: perpetual, exclusive/non-exclusive, geographic limits, and platform rights. For microdramas, include clause for paid distribution channels and ad reuse.
AI, consent & deepfake safeguards (2026 must-have)
Because of increased regulatory scrutiny and platform policies around synthetic media (late 2025 deepfake incidents prompted investigations and stricter platform rules), add a clause confirming:
- Client attests consent for all talent and supplied media
- Model releases secured for minors or sensitive likenesses
- Explicit prohibition on generating or distributing non-consensual synthetic media
Cancellation & rescheduling
Define refundable vs non-refundable fees, reschedule windows, and force majeure provisions for shoots or live events.
SOP: From Signed Offer Sheet to Launch (step-by-step)
Use this SOP as a checklist to automate work, reduce errors, and scale packaging. You can drop these steps into an automation workflow in your CRM or PM tool.
Pre-sale (0–7 days)
- Send offer sheet + pricing calculator to prospect.
- Attach client agreement and intake form; require deposit to lock dates.
- Create project in PM tool and assign roles (producer, editor, marketer).
Production (7–30 days depending on offer)
- Kickoff call; confirm milestones and deliverables.
- Collect assets: logos, brand colors, existing videos, audience data.
- Record/batch content. Use AI-assisted rough cuts to speed edits (script generation, captioning).
- First draft review loop: 1–2 revisions included; change orders billed.
Launch week
- Finalize assets and upload to distribution platforms.
- Activate emails, paid ads, and calendar invites.
- Run tech checks 24 hours prior for live streams.
Post-launch (0–30 days)
- Deliver recordings and analytics report (attendance, CTR, conversion).
- Invoice final balance and close project; upsell paths for follow-up products.
- Conduct a project retrospective and update SOPs with improvements.
Booking, Payments, and CRM — Practical integrations
The fastest launches use automation. Here are recommended setups that are proven in 2026 market conditions.
- Booking & Scheduling: Calendly or Acuity integrated with Zoom + calendar invites.
- Payments: Stripe for one-off and subscription billing; set up automatic receipts + tax handling.
- Contracts & E-sign: PandaDoc or HelloSign with templates preloaded.
- CRM: HubSpot or Keap ideal for email sequences, tagging offers, and automation triggers. See integration blueprints for connecting micro apps without breaking data hygiene.
- Project Management: Notion/Trello/Asana templates for each offer type with checklists and task owners.
Pricing Calculator (formula & quick setup)
Simple formula to set price:
Price = (Direct Costs + Labor Hours × Hourly Rate + Platform/Ad Spend) × (1 + Desired Margin)
Example: Live masterclass
- Direct costs (tech, captions): $200
- Labor (8 hrs × $75/hr): $600
- Ads/spend: $300
- Desired margin: 60%
- Price = ($200 + $600 + $300) × 1.6 = $1,760
Use tiers and early-bird discounts to test price elasticity quickly. Always offer a payment plan option; it raises conversions on premium offers.
Performance and Reporting (what to measure)
Track these KPIs by offer type:
- Live Stream: Registrations → Attendance → Conversion → Replay views
- Serialized Course: Week-to-week retention → Completion rate → NPS → Upsell conversion
- Microdrama Ads: View-through-rate (VTR) → CTR → CPL → ROAS
Real-world examples & micro-case studies
Example 1 — Live stream success:
A coach with a 10k email list launched a 90-minute paid masterclass priced at $149 with a $49 replay ticket. Registrations: 430, live attendance: 220, gross revenue: $42,000. Key lever: VIP add-on 30-minute audit sold to 8 clients at $497.
Example 2 — Serialized course MVP:
One coach converted a 6-week serialized program into a subscription: $49/month with an initial cohort of 200 members. After month one, the coach introduced a community-only upsell and retained 78% month-over-month by adding weekly office hours and accountability checklists.
Example 3 — Microdrama ad campaign:
A boutique agency produced 4 × 45s vertical episodes for a SaaS client. Production cost: $12k. With a $5k ad spend on paid channels, the campaign delivered a CPL 40% lower than previous campaigns due to narrative hooks and platform-native creatives.
Common pushbacks and how to handle them
- “I’m not a tech person.” — Use turn-key tools and hire a one-off tech setup consultant; the templates minimize the decision load. Also see compact home studio kits and where to buy smart lighting on a budget if you’re setting up minimal production gear.
- “What if clients want custom work?” — Use the offer sheet to create a modular pricing grid and clear change-order fees.
- “I worry about consent and legal risk (AI/deepfakes).” — Add the AI/consent clauses, require talent releases, and avoid manipulative synthetic edits.

Advanced strategies and 2026 predictions
Expect these trends to influence your offers in 2026:
- Vertical-first platforms will expand ad inventory — short serialized formats command higher engagement and will require shorter attention hooks.
- AI-assisted production (script writing, captioning, guided editing) will halve production time for serialized content; price accordingly for turnaround speed.
- Regulatory scrutiny around synthetic media will tighten; client agreements that address consent and authenticity will become a competitive advantage.
- Buyers will expect modular pricing: base offer + add-ons + performance incentives. Make your offer sheet clearly modular.
“Packaging clarity + operational reliability = the fastest path from interested lead to signed client.”
Quick-start checklist (one-page)

Final notes & next step
If you prioritize a repeatable operational backbone over last-minute improvisation, you’ll close faster and scale with fewer mistakes. These offer sheets are intentionally prescriptive: they tell clients what they get, what they pay, and what success looks like — the three elements buyers need to say yes.
