Content Strategy Internship, Leland

Leland asks users to share their ambition - whether it be passing grad school entry tests or building skills to change career paths - then it pairs them with the right coach rather than leaving them to figure it out alone. On the other side of the platform, there’s access to new revenue streams for professional coaches, who sign up to the platform on a freelance basis and set their own rates and availability.

Leland’s niche focus, coupled with a growing demand from the public, should create a strong chance for growth despite the competitive environment. With strong funding at its back, the company has worked to expand its coaching categories as it scales up and tries to attract more users.
