Unlike the other coaches listed on this page, rather than being a coach IndeCollective is more of a cohort-based professional development organization.
IndeCollective’s ideal client:
IndeCollective’s typical member is a seasoned professional services leader — e.g. someone with 15+ years of experience in their craft — who is building a solo practice and/or small agency and looking to access the far-ahead mentors, practical playbooks, and supportive community to grow their revenue, while saving time. What our members share is that they DO NOT want to leave their success to trial and error. So they join a 10-week IndeCollective cohort to tap into more than a dozen experts — mentor/coaches, who have built their own 7 and 8 figure independent businesses — to clarify their focus, productize their services, differentiate their brand, value-based price their offering, and build a pipeline of ideal clients.

Fees:
$4,995 for the single-cohort, 10-week program and $6,995 for a full year membership.
Group work:
IndeCollective is a “modern, MBA-style program” in that our pedagogy combines the same three ingredients of the best MBA programs — practical education, far-ahead mentors, and a curated community of peers — while tailoring the content to the best practices that help experienced professionals grow their consulting revenue, while saving time. Through IndeCollective’s 10-week bootcamp, you’ll learn the keys to translate your craft into a six-, and even seven-figure business. You’ll set goals, receive a customized learning plan, and then tap into the right mentors, peer group, and educational resources to:
- Productize your work – to reduce the trade of time for money
- Differentiate your brand – to attract the right clients on the right terms
- Price your services based on value – to charge premium rates
- Build a predictable pipeline – to eliminate the ebbs and flows of business
- Streamline your operation – to identify the processes that help save time and scale
What’s more, like an MBA, you’re participating in the program alongside ~100, handpicked consultants and small agency builders. A group that you’ll no doubt find ways to collaborate with — trading referrals, collaborating on projects, even using each others services. And, as a part of the program, you are assigned an (A)Team — a personal board of advisors — who track with you as accountability partners and sounding board over the course of your ten-weeks (and beyond).

The IndeCollective team:
IndeCollective is delivered by more than a dozen “expert guides” — read independent consultants and agency builders, who have already built their own seven or eight-figure independent practice and who, through live programming and coaching, support IndeCollective members in applying the practical playbooks that unlock revenue growth and time savings. Topics covered by our expert guides include, but are not limited to, those included above.
Umbrex member are invited to take advantage of a free workshop on Value-Based Pricing to get a flavor for our programming and what you might expect.

The Modern Independent is on a mission to assist modern independent workers in accelerating their growth, both personally and professionally. We provide our listeners with the necessary education, expert guidance, and inspiration to achieve greater financial freedom, fulfillment, and flexibility through their independent work.
“A year and a half ago, my business partner and I launched our own independent consultancy, the Renegade Consulting Collective. This year, we wanted to invest in taking our business to the next level. Through IndeCollective, we were able to access practical playbooks, work with sector-leading mentors, and connect with a supportive group of peers running their own independent businesses. Personally, I learned an incredible amount about how I can shift my own business from a one-to-one model to a one-to-many model and even launched a client offering focused on philanthropic advising for high net worth individuals. My partner (who is also an Umbrex member) and I earned our MBAs from Stanford and Wharton respectively, but IndeCollective has absolutely helped us grow business in very real ways we didn’t learn in business school–all while saving both time and money.”
