The Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases and accepts from the Seller, the following described personal property (the "Property"): [item_description]. The Buyer acknowledges that the Buyer has had a full and adequate opportunity to inspect the Property prior to the execution of this Agreement and accepts the Property in its current condition as described herein.
The total purchase price for the Property is [sale_price] (the "Purchase Price"), payable in full by the Buyer to the Seller on or before the Sale Date. The Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Purchase Price represents the fair and agreed-upon value of the Property as negotiated between the Parties at arm's length. Upon receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller shall be deemed to have been fully compensated for the sale, transfer, and conveyance of the Property, and the Seller shall have no further right, title, or interest in or to the Property or the Purchase Price.
The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Buyer that: (a) the Seller is the sole and lawful owner of the Property and has full right, power, and authority to sell, transfer, and convey the Property to the Buyer; (b) the Property is free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, pledges, claims, charges, and restrictions of any kind whatsoever; (c) the Seller has not previously sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or otherwise encumbered the Property or any interest therein to any other person or entity; and (d) the Seller will defend the Buyer's title to the Property against any and all claims and demands of any person or entity claiming an interest therein.
Upon execution of this Agreement and receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller hereby irrevocably transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer all of the Seller's right, title, and interest in and to the Property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims of any kind. Title to and risk of loss of the Property shall pass from the Seller to the Buyer upon the execution of this Agreement and payment of the Purchase Price. From and after the transfer of title, the Buyer shall be solely responsible for the Property, including its care, maintenance, insurance, and all risks of loss, damage, theft, or destruction. The Seller agrees to execute and deliver to the Buyer any and all additional documents, instruments, or certificates as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to evidence or effectuate the transfer of title to the Property.
5.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the transaction is consummated, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 5.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, between the Parties relating to the sale and purchase of the Property. 5.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. 5.4 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by both Parties. 5.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 5.6 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.
The Buyer acknowledges that the Seller is acting as a Life Coach and that the assets sold herein—including intake forms, goal-setting materials, and accountability sessions—do not constitute professional counseling, psychotherapy, or medical advice under Michigan's professional practice acts. The Buyer warrants that they are not seeking treatment for a diagnosable mental health disorder and understands that no therapeutic relationship is created through this transfer.
Pursuant to the Michigan Consumer Protection Act, the Seller makes no guarantees regarding the 'transformation' or specific outcomes resulting from the use of these coaching tools. Buyer agrees that coaching results are subjective and depend on the client's participation and effort. Seller shall not be held liable for failure to achieve specific financial, personal, or emotional goals.
The parties agree to comply with the Michigan Data Breach Notification Act and the spirit of the Bullard-Plawecki Employee Right to Know Act regarding any personal data included in the sale. Seller represents that all client confidentiality has been maintained up to the date of transfer and Buyer assumes all responsibility for the protection of sensitive personal info thereafter.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Bill of Sale as of the date first written above, each acknowledging receipt of a copy of this Agreement.

In the coaching industry, the boundary between a transformative 'session' and regulated therapy is razor-thin. When transferring ownership of high-value coaching assets or pre-paid discovery call packages, a standard receipt isn't enough. Our Michigan-tailored Bill of Sale helps you navigate the Michigan Consumer Protection Act and mitigates results liability by formalizing the transfer of intangible value while explicitly clarifying that your services do not constitute licensed mental health counseling.
Beyond the standard bill of sale sections, this template adds fields specific to Life Coach:
A Bill of Sale serves the core legal purpose of providing proof of the transfer of ownership of an item from the seller to the buyer. It formalizes the transaction and fulfills the legal need for documentation of the sale, aiding in preventing disputes over ownership and clarifying the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties involved.
Scope of Practice Violations
Clearly define services in contracts, outlining that the life coach is not providing therapy or counseling. Use disclaimers to distinguish life coaching from regulated mental health services.
Results Liability
Include clauses that do not guarantee specific outcomes, instead focusing on effort and the client's participation. Use terms like 'goal setting' and 'accountability' to manage expectations.
Unlicensed Therapy Accusations
Include contractual language stating the distinct difference between coaching and therapy, establishing that no therapeutic service is provided.
For this bill of sale to be legally valid:
Common mistakes to avoid:
Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act)
Prohibits unfair or deceptive practices in commerce, which applies to life coaches in terms of advertising their services truthfully and not making false claims about outcomes.
Enforced by Federal Trade Commission (FTC)
State Professional Practice Acts
Certain states may have regulations that define what constitutes professional counseling or therapy, and life coaches must be careful not to infringe on these definitions unless appropriately licensed.
Enforced by State Licensing Boards
Recommended coverage: Professional Liability Insurance (Errors & Omissions) · General Liability Insurance
Yes. In Michigan, a Bill of Sale acts as a formal record of transfer for prepaid coaching sessions and intake materials, provided it clearly distinguishes these services from professional therapy to avoid scope of practice violations.
The Act prohibits 'unfair or deceptive' trade practices. Your Bill of Sale must accurately describe the 'transformation' tools or sessions sold without making false claims about guaranteed outcomes to remain compliant with state and FTC guidelines.
While Bullard-Plawecki primarily covers employee personnel files, if your Bill of Sale involves transferring a practice with client records, you must ensure you meet all Michigan privacy and record-access requirements for the individuals documented within those files.
