Why You Need A Coach?
Most people who start a business, do so with a very good understanding of their trade.
They are great plumbers, electricians, engineers, or builders. But they soon realise there is more to running a business than knowing their trade.
How do you know you need a coach?
Many businesses have successfully grown from nothing to 10 or 15 staff only to find themselves working harder than ever and not making the money they should be.
Ideally businesses who use a coach from the inception have less difficulties growing and sustaining a business model which is less taxing on the business owner's time.
Here are some other reasons you may need a business coach:
So what is business coaching?
A business coach is there to help you set and reach your goals, they will also hold you accountable to the goals you set. They will help you develop, customise and then fully understand how business systems should be utilised within your business.
A business coach can help grow, sustain or build and sell your business. They will also help you transition a family owned business from parents to children.
A business coach will help with processes covering all facets of your business, including human resources, financials, training, business plan, goal settings, sales tactics, marketing and reporting.
