What exactly are these Coaches doing for these young women that they can not find in a book or online?

What Tichou said. I'm not condoning it at all, but think about how appalled people were 10+ years ago when families started paying College Admissions Counselors for their assistance. Now, it's pretty commonplace for some groups of people. Can you find all that information online? Sure, but if I have the $$ to have someone else deal with it (and deal with keeping my child on a timeline) then why not?
Today it's the Rush Counselor - same song, different verse. Girls won't listen to their mother's advice, but they might listen to someone else. If mama has the $$, then she can put that task on someone else...
