​Groundbreaking goal-setting

Setting goals over 12 months is a thing of the past. It's hard to stay focused consistently over 12 months and that's why many business owners fail. 95% of goals at the start of the year fail by 15th January.

I use a tried and tested goal-setting process that uses the latest understanding in human behaviour to get results. This might sound glorified but my 10-week goal-setting process creates urgency and focus which, when blended with other concepts such as mico-tasing and habit formulation, lead to better results in less time.

​What is business coaching?

Marketing Mentors and Business coaches help entrepreneurs, business owners, and professionals grow in many ways. Business coaches help businesses grow through a structured process and by combining years of experience and proven templates.

Business coaches are able to provide personalised, custom advice that is relevant to you, your business circumstances and the industry you are in.

Great coaches and mentors are the quickest routes to success as they help you to speed up the learning curve and reduce the risk of costly mistakes.

A business coach is an expert entrepreneur who knows what it takes to make a business successful. While not all coaches and mentors will have experience in marketing and sales, a good coach should have experience in running a business successfully as well as an open mindset to achieving success.

Business coaches typically help owners define their goals and visions along with setting strategies and actions for achieving success. Whilst it's important to work with someone that you like and trust, Business coaches will ask tough questions and will be able to help navigate issues in the most effective way possible.
​
A business coach is very much like a partner on your team. They offer invaluable value to business owners.

​Benefits of business coaching

Business Coaching is proven to bring a great chance of success (see below). Working with a coach provides greater clarity, motivation and focus. It also provides positive accountability to ensure that you stay on track to success.

​It also helps to achieve a better corporate culture, more open and productive communication, higher levels of productivity, increased profit, and business expansion.

​How to find the right coach

A common misconception about coaches is that they must be experts in a company's field. Finding the right coach or mentor is about having the support from someone who you can trust and that has the right skills in areas such as goal-setting, planning and business operations such as marketing and sales.

​Business coaching is not only for the CEO, but the whole company. Coaches can provide support to business owners and leadership teams as well as to individual employees to ensure that their vision and passion is aligned with the business.

​What's the difference between a coach and a mentor?
The role of a coach is to help you come up with your own solutions through a structured approach and by asking the right questions. Mentoring is more focused on providing actionable advice.

My approach is to bring a blend of coaching and mentoring in a way that allows businesses and business owners to achieve success.
​
Mentoring, just like a business coach, offers accountability and learning.

​What can a business coach do for me?

Business coaching is versatile in the services they offer. Most business coaches help owners with struggling or faltering businesses but this isn't always the case. Businesses can achieve greater success if they get help more proactively, including during good times.

Also, Business coaches help build a new business from the ground up. Setting up a new business or venture can be daunting and overwhelming when it comes to knowing where to start.

A Business coach advises owners on how to set up their business and define its mission and goals.

​A business coach helps business owners that are stuck in stagnation. There's no denying that owning your own company is stressful and demanding, but it can be very rewarding as well. A business coach is someone in your corner who can assist you through challenges and when the going gets tough, business owners hire a business coach to help them to survive and thrive!

​What is a business coach?

According to Indeed.com, "A business coach is a professional mentor who supports, educates and motivates business owners". For me, a business coach is much more than that. Support goes beyond the business owner and includes proven processes and systems to achieve success.

Different coaches value different methodologies and having a mentor or coach that understands your circumstances and is focused on business planning and sales and marketing will increase the chances of success. A true business coach starts with understanding your situation, challenges and vision at the beginning. As Stephen Covey emphasises in his book, 7 habits of highly effective people - it's critical to seek first to understand, then be understood.

Proactive business owners ultimately determine the speed and passion with which a goal is met. If it's not linked to personal dreams, goals, and plans for themselves, there is no reason for reaching the business goal.

Business coaching helps you to plan and prioritise goals and then stay focused on them to the end. A major issue we all face with our busy lives is staying focused on what's important.

​As well as for large corporations, you can have a business coach for small businesses.

​What are the benefits of having a business coach?

A business coach is a person who helps your business move forward faster.

​Coaching should help you avoid mistakes or cul de sacs. We all experience a learning curve in our life and some challenges have longer curves than others. Having the support of a coach or mentor means cutting down the learning curve.

​Business Coach Statistics

There have been various surveys and articles reporting on the success rates of having a coach and, while statistics on how effective a coach or mentor is varied, there are plenty of websites that talk about the positive impacts of coaching.


According to the International Coaching Federation (the ICF), 86% of businesses who were able to track their ROI managed to get a return on their investment while the median return was 7x their investment cost - and on average yielded a return of $7.90 for every $1 spend on coaching services.


According to Aceup, when it comes to employee coaching "Some estimates suggest that coaching gives you a 500-750% Return on Investment, on average".

Satisfied owners who have worked with business coaches to develop their businesses are quick to talk about the many benefits and advantages that they enjoyed.

Both coaching and training cause productivity to increase by as much as 86%, while 40% of Fortune 500 companies make use of business coaching because they recognise the importance of having a high level of support in order to achieve success.

​Business coaching cost

The cost of a business coach can vary considerably depending on what support is needed, how much time from the coach or mentor is required and other elements.

When looking at the price for a coach, it should be considered an investment rather than a cost. It's an investment in your own skills as well as the results you will achieve both personally and in your business.

I pride myself on providing the highest level of support to help you get the best results, but still at a fair investment, to help you maximise your ROI (or return on investment).

​Prices start at £180 a month which includes monthly support calls, an alignment call, access to an online library of templates, documents and other materials, and access to online courses to help you build on the personal support you receive.

​Famous Entrepreneurs who had business coaching

Eric Schmidt (former CEO of Google), Barack Obama, Steve Bennett (former CEO of Intuit), Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, Serena Williams and Hugh Jackman are just a few celebrities who have had business coaching.

You might think that entrepreneurs at the head of businesses such as Google don't need a business coach but there are huge benefits to coaching for anyone at any level.

​The benefits of accountability and having someone to guide the thought process to get results allows anyone who wants to develop themselves or their business to do so.

​Eric Schmidt has said that hiring a business coach was the best professional decision he ever made. Business coaching is a resource that some of the world's most successful entrepreneurs still swear by.
