You've found your way to our frequently asked questions page. I'm sure if you are here, you have an interest in business coaching but probably have loads of questions. We may not answer all of them here but these are the ones we get asked most often.

When is the best time to start business coaching?

+

Yesterday, of course! Seriously, Right Now! Today! This minute! Before you take another step, waste another pound, lose another sale, work too many hours, miss another family event! Forget another special occasion!

Far too many business owners wait. They wait for when things will slow down or to get through their current projects. Then, they never do because there is always some other project that comes up. They’re waiting for the perfect time to start.

In what areas of business will you be coaching me?

+

We will work with you in five key areas… and the emphasis in each will depend on you, your business, and of course, your goals.

These key areas are:

SALES
Obviously, the backbone for creating a profitable business, and one of the areas we’ll help you get spectacular results in.

MARKETING AND ADVERTISING
If you want to make a sale, you first need to find a prospect. Your ActionCOACH will teach you amazingly simple, yet powerful, streetwise marketing techniques and approaches that will drive profits.

TEAM BUILDING & RECRUITMENT
You’ll never just wish to find the right people again. You can have motivated, passionate, enthusiastic, and loyal team members when your ActionCOACH shows you how.

SYSTEMS & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
End the hopeless cycle of the business running you and begin running your business. We will show you the secrets to having the business ‘work’… even when you’re not there.

CUSTOMER SERVICE
How to deliver your product or service consistently, make it easy for your customers to buy, leaving them feeling delighted with your service. Ways to motivate your current customers to give you referrals and to ensure their repeat business. These are just two of the many strategies we will teach you.

How much does business coaching cost?

+

Your investment will depend on the size of your business and the scope of our undertaking together. Your ActionCOACH will work this out with you so it’s appropriate for your business and the goals and challenges you are committed to. You’ll find it’s just like having a marketing manager, sales team leader, trainer, recruitment specialist, and a corporate consultant, all for one nominal investment.

Everything you do with us, and your ActionCOACH, is a true investment in your future. Not only will you begin to create great results in your business, but you’ll end up with both an entrepreneurial education second to none, and the knowledge that you can repeat your business success over and over again on other ventures.

How will I find time for business coaching?

+

Again, the first few months will be the toughest… not because of extra work, but because of new tasks. Your ActionCOACH will show you how, on a day to day basis, to get more done with less effort.

After those first few months you’ll find you’re not working more, just differently. Then, depending of course on your goals, from about month six onward, you’ll begin to see the results of all your efforts… and, if you choose, you can begin working less than ever before. It’s important to remember that it’s about changing what you do with your time… not putting in more of it.

How can I be sure coaching will work in my industry and my business?

+

We’re experts in the areas of sales, marketing, business development, business management, and team building… and, with literally hundreds of different profit-building strategies, you’ll soon see how powerful our systematised approaches are. On the other hand, you are the expert in your business. Together we can apply our systems to make your business more effective.

Add to this the fact that at least one ActionCOACH from our worldwide network will either have worked with, managed, worked in, or even owned a business that was the same or very similar to yours.

Your ActionCOACH will work this out with you, so it’s appropriate for your business as well as the goals and challenges you are committed to. You’ll find that it’s just like having a marketing manager, sales team leader, trainer, recruitment specialist, and a corporate consultant, all for one nominal investment.

Everything you do with us, and your ActionCOACH, is a true investment in your future. Not only will you begin to create great results in your business, but you’ll end up with both an entrepreneurial education second to none, and the knowledge that you can repeat your business success over and over again in other ventures.

Why have a business coach at all?

+

As the world of business moves faster and gets more competitive it is difficult to keep up with both the changes in your industry as well as the innovations in sales, marketing and management strategies. Having a Business Coach isn’t a luxury you don’t need, it is a necessity your business must have.

A Business Coach is just like a sporting coach. A sporting coach pushes an athlete to achieve optimum performance, provides support when they are exhausted and teaches the athlete to execute plays that their competition does not anticipate.

A sporting coach will make you run more laps than you feel like. A sporting coach will tell it like it is. And a sporting coach will listen.

The role of the Business Coach is to coach business owners to improve their business through guidance, support and encouragement. They help the owners of a small and medium sized businesses with their sales, marketing, management, team building and so much more. Just like a sporting coach, your Business Coach will make you focus on the game.

The owners of small to medium sized businesses find it hard enough to keep pace with all the changes and innovations going on in today’s modern world, let alone to find the time to devote to sales, marketing, systems, planning and team management, and then to run their businesses as well!

Your ActionCOACH will become your marketing manager, your sales director, your training co-ordinator; your confidant, your mentor.

How long will I need to work with an ActionCOACH for?

+

If you’ve been in business for more than a few months, you’ve seen at least one or two quick fixes…

Most consultants seem to act as if they can solve all your problems in a few hours or days. We believe long-term success is not gained by just scratching the surface and then doing it for you… rather it means doing it with you, showing you how to do it, working alongside you, and crating your success… together.

Over the period we’ll work on different areas of your business. Month by month you’ll not only see your goals become reality, but you’ll have the confidence, knowledge, and skills to make it happen, again and again.

Are there any guarantees?

+

Yes, a complete return on investment guarantee.

What results have other business owners had?

+

Our clients have consistently seen more profitability growth, more time released for themselves and a better team working on improved systems.

The results will speak for themselves, but take a look at any of the many client videos on our website for specific examples of our real clients, with real businesses, getting real results.

There are three fundamental reasons our approach will work for you in your business…

First, your coach will help you become 100% focused on your goals and the step-by-step processes to help you achieve them. This focus alone will have an extraordinary effect on both you and your business results.

Second, we will hold you accountable to get the things done you’ve committed to, not just for the day-to-day running of your business, but for the dynamic growth your business will experience. You’re investing in your success and we’re going to help you get there.

Third, we’re going to teach you, on a one-on-one basis, as many of the hundreds of profit and business building strategies and approaches as you need. So, whether your goal is to be making more money, or working fewer hours — or both — your goals can become a reality, and all within the next 12 months.

Again, just review some of the videos to hear about the specific results other business owners just like you have achieved.

Will it cost me more to implement the strategies

+

Give us just a half an hour and you’ll see how to turn your marketing effort into an investment that will yield sales and profits rather than just running up your expenses.

In most cases, we’ll actually save you money by exposing approaches that aren’t working for you. And yes, you’ll likely have to spend some money to make some.

When you follow our simple testing and measuring systems you’ll never again risk more than a comparatively few pounds on any one campaign. When we establish the ones that do work, we make sure you keep profiting from them, time, and time again.
Remember, if you use the traditional ‘accounting’ way of reducing costs, you will only ever add just a few percentage points to your bottom line.

Following our formula, you’ll soon appreciate that by driving sales, marketing, and income growth, your possible returns become exponential…

The sky’s the limit, as they say.
