In the UK a significant share of the adult population smokes and the majority of them say they want to quit. That gives a pool measured in the millions of potential clients, of whom a substantial share annually make a serious attempt to quit. Most fail within the first two weeks, and repeatedly โ the average successful smoker quits only after several attempts. A professional coach with clinical partnership can meaningfully raise success rate compared to an unsupported attempt after one year of abstinence.
๐ญ4 million smokers in UK, 60 percent want to quit
Absolute market size is massive and annually 30โ40 percent of smokers make a serious attempt to quit. Most fail repeatedly without professional help. The market is undersized โ fewer than 200 fully specialised tobacco coaches in the UK for 4 million clients means 20 000 potential clients per coach.
