It’s my passion and success to coach small and mid-sized business owners, who have a desire to achieve more toward their goals, but have hit some obstacles or limits in their progress. CHARACTERISTIC CLIENT REQUESTS AND NEEDS - Generating more money... 'I'm busy and working all the time, but there's no money left. Where's it going?' or 'I'm always nervous cause sometimes I don't know where the next job is coming from or when.' - Creating time for their family or themselves... 'It seems like I work all the time and I'm missing seeing my kids grow up.' Or 'We haven't had a real vacation in years.' - Development and Engagement of their team... 'I just can't find good help.' Or 'Nobody's willing to work as hard as I do.' - Systemizing processes and activities... 'I can't spend any time trying to grow the business because I'm always putting out fires.' Or 'There's no organization, I can't find the information I need when I need it. And things are falling through the cracks.' - Preparation for the sale of their business... 'I don't know what my business is worth, and I sure don't know how to go about selling it. How do I make sure I get top dollar for it?'I help owners focus on the business and with all facets of it, serving as their confidant, sounding board, resource, guide, and friend.FOCUS AREASAs a business coach, I work with clients in five key areas. The emphasis on each area depends on needs, the type of business, and the goals of the owner. The key areas are: Sales; Marketing and Advertising; Team Building and Recruitment; Systems and Business Development; and, Customer Service. My strength is increasing sales, and secondarily helping business owners spend less time working ‘IN’ their business and more time working ‘ON’ their business. In the end, I also help put the FUN back in business and life.
