Author handbook

Trainer documentation

Step-by-step guides for courses, coaching, meal plans, analytics, payouts, and FAQs.

FitSpace helps coaches and nutritionists sell courses, meal plans, and 1:1 coaching. Buyers pay only for what they choose — no mandatory subscription.

Step-by-step topics are in the sidebar — from quick start to chat and payouts. The full illustrated path (like the legacy Notion guide) is the Coach's guide (screenshots from /guide/).

Where to start

Step	Article
1	Getting started — roles, timeline, first publish
2	Verification & payouts — required for moderation and money
3	Courses overview → Create & edit → Videos
4	After approval — Revisions, Chat, Analytics

New authors can follow the table in order; experienced authors can jump to any sidebar section.
