As a business owner, you know what you need to do to be successful, to drive your business, and to manage and lead your team. Success means different things to different people, it could be about maximising profitability or building a super-productive team, or helping you win time back from the business.
"When you run your own business, at certain times you need to be the Manager, the Technician, the Entrepreneur, or indeed a mix of all three, and this is where your business coach comes in."
The way we see it; our role as your coach is to help you focus on improving your performance, and the performance of your team and therefore your business. It is about balance and accountability.
Like you, we are results focused; knowing your numbers is critical, and we have a set of standard processes and procedures that we go through with every client because it works.
Your chosen coach will sit down with you on a regular basis, either weekly, fortnightly, or monthly; and work through the areas that you have agreed to focus on.
There is no fixed contract and no notice period, at any time if either of us decides this is not working for whatever reason, then we agree to either terminate or put on hold the process. We recommend that you give it a minimum of 9- 12 months as this is not a short sharp fix, there may be challenges that need time to resolve.
As there are two parties in this relationship, the process may not work If you are not putting in the effort that you committed to then we shall look to review how we are working. For this reason, we cannot guarantee results, however, we do guarantee that if after 3 months you feel that the time, training, and resources we have shared with you are not worth your investment, we will refund what you have paid plus 10%.
There are five key areas we focus on, Basics/ Building Blocks, Sales & Marketing, Systems, People, and Leadership / Accountability. These areas often overlap and affect each other.
Basics / Building Blocks
Here we look at what the business is all about
Sales & Marketing
Two very separate headings, Marketing involves strategies to promote products, services, or brands effectively, and Sales is the process of managing the journey from initial inquiry to final delivery, ensuring a seamless experience that meets the needs of your clients
Systems
Every organisation needs systems to leverage their resources, equipment, people, ideas
People
The most important asset of any business
Leadership & Accountability
We work with the business owner, board, and/or stakeholders to ensure the business is being LED and not simply managed
Businesses and organisations like yours are so dependent on the people at the top to lead them into a successful future.
- New ideas, tactics, and strategies for sales, profits, and cashflow
- A focused action plan for you and the business
- An outsider's perspective and someone to hold you accountable.
- A source of business contacts
- Critiques of your work
- Honest feedback and communication
- We will work together on a stage-by-stage basis, to get the business to where you want it to be. Timescales always vary and are dependent on the amount of time you have to put into the process.
