Rather than a (perhaps remote) coach, I'd seek a local pro that you could partner with. You could offer to work with them for free - an internship - to get knowledge of the business, and what you learn would be relevant to your local market. Plus you'd be out time instead of money - and knowledge comes from that investment of time more than the dollars spent on a coach.
Most REI coaches teach the same old stuff you already read in those 100 articles, etc. and they throw in some motivation and accountability. I think the accountability part is super important and, again, you could find someone - a partner, spouse, etc. - to hold you accountable to the goals you set (e.g., did you make 20 calls like you said you would today, did you drop in on 5 brokerages this week, etc.).
Just some thoughts. I wish you the best and much success!
