WHAT IS BUSINESS COACHING?

Since ActionCOACH pioneered Business Coaching since the early 1990’s, the term has become synonymous with performance and growth, and it is as focused on the business, its team, its processes and its sales and marketing as it is on the business owner. You see, owners of small-to-medium sized businesses find it hard enough keeping pace with all the changes and innovations going on in today’s modern world to find the time to devote to sales, marketing, systems, planning and team management … and then to run their business after that. You’ll take your business experience, add it to our proprietary and copyrighted systems, and together through weekly conversations, you’ll coach business owners to financial and personal success.

WHAT DO I DO AND WHAT DO I SELL AS AN ACTIONCOACH?

Your role as an ActionCOACH is to help the owners of small-to-medium sized businesses with their sales, marketing, management, team building, direction, goal setting and so much more … Essentially you’ll be their sounding board, confidant, mentor and coach. But you don’t have to be a marketing guru to succeed …The ActionCOACH system has been designed to get results in a way that’s both effective for the client and highly profitable for you. As part of your arsenal of products and services, you’ll deliver everything from Business Coaching programs to seminars.

SO AS A BUSINESS COACH, WHAT MIGHT YOUR AVERAGE WEEK LOOK LIKE?

You would probably spend it meeting with prospective clients, coaching clients over the phone, preparing and delivering seminars, conducting in-house training programs, critiquing your clients’ marketing pieces, performing Alignment Consultations or selling the ActionCOACH planning program.

WHO WILL BE MY TARGET AUDIENCE?

It’s hard to think of a business that would not benefit in some way from ActionCOACH ‘s products and services. Most of these business owners are Owner/Operators who are looking to introduce systems that can generate more growth or profit, provide them with more time, or produce better productivity from their team members. We have found that most start-up businesses are either not financial enough to afford our coaching services or are still in the development and establishment phase of their business cycle. They do not normally fit our ideal business profile. Similarly, many big businesses will have their own in-house marketing departments working in conjunction with outside advertising and public relations houses, and therefore may not see a need for our services.

 SO…HOW DO I MAKE MONEY AS AN ACTIONCOACH?

Your main income stream will be through coaching and mentoring your clients, each of which will provide you with monthly revenue. Seminars are just one of the lead generators you’ll use to source clients, and considering you’ll be consistently aiming for at least two coaching clients from each seminar (plus those you’ll convert from many of our other proven prospecting techniques) you’ll find your earning potential will only be limited by your enthusiasm. One thing’s for sure: you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the end of each month.

CAN I WORK FROM HOME?

Currently there are two types of franchises available within ActionCOACH: Firm and Practice. The first option, a Practice, gives you both a solid business and a great work-from-home lifestyle that offers a lower overhead and stress level. The second option, a Firm, gives you a team of 8+ coaches and a professional office-based firm, generally delivering the full spectrum of programs and services.
