Coaching Promotes Business Success For Self Employed

I am happy to share these comments from a small business owner who achieved success through coaching, setting SMART goals and staying in constant action to meet his goals

For those of you who work from home your day largely involves hours of work at the computer and a quick trip to your own kitchen for lunch, it's easy to feel a bit isolated.

When you get up and go to a job every day, you're interacting with people, but you don't get that working at home,'' a common complaint I hear from many of my clients who run home based business. Yet after spending a few sessions in Coaching this client’s entire perspective changed

Here is a true and terrific success story about an individual who turned to Coaching to find the business and personal success he was looking for.

His aloneness and lack of direction and support left him stuck, especially when it came to assessing how to grow and diversify his business and increase profits. Then he saw my flier that read, "Go the distance to reach your dreams ...'' while shopping at a local bookstore. He called me and we had a terrific trial session. The light bulb went on. He was filled with energy and excitement. The black cloud of doom and despair lifted from above him. “He immediately signed up for 12 sessions of Life and Business Coaching.

The motto “Go The Distance To Reach Your Dreams really resonated with my new client. He said "I knew didn't need therapy. ... I had been in therapy and that was very helpful. Now I needed direction and motivation in certain areas. I need someone to guide and inspire me to set goals to achieve the Success I was looking for. Coaching was my answer. “Here is his success story:

“After 12 Coaching telephone sessions my life and thinking were transformed. I am better organized and more things done. I know how to focus and take control of my time and my life. I am happy and confident.”

“Now I successfully juggle several accounts and focus more strategically on promoting and growing my business. My phone is ringing off the hook with new work. My business has grown over 30% in 12 short weeks. I closed 4 new accounts PLUS I am involved in 3 entrepreneurial business ventures that will increase my overall income over 50%.- not to mention the exposure it has given to my business. “

I have developed a brand for myself which is so important in business. Coaching brought me to the insight of developing my own online business in addition growing my Marketing and Media business. I am developing websites for clients that are AWESOME. My efforts are increasing their business. I am in demand. It’s a great feeling.

In addition coaching helped me manage my time better, reduce my stress and improve my health. You can view my website at http://www.schneidercreative.com/start.html

It’s wonderful hearing these comments from a client who has experienced the life transforming benefits of coaching. By using a Coaching method based on a seven step process to change that focuses on principles of neuroscience, clients quickly close the gap from where they are now to where they want to be in life. This method is successful, powerful and works!

It enables the client to get the results they are looking for in the least amount of time. It leads to the clients to insights a very powerful form of learning that allows them to develop life long positive habits that transforms their life.

Setting meaningful, measurable and inspiring goals are the foundation of Coaching. But, it does not stop there. The key to a client’s success 1. Setting the clearly defined goals and creating a vision for each 2. Developing strategies and actions to meet their goals 3. Staying in constant action to meet the goals 4. Engaging in weekly coaching session and completing assigned action steps.

The process is structured yet flexible to meet the growth and learning of the client. It keeps the client on track-constantly moving forward.

Coaching is a wonderful tool that helps clients reach their full potential, improve their performance and enhance their overall quality of life. To further assist clients, I make myself available at all times via email and “coach on call:”-where the client can reach me to have a quick 15 minute chat to get them back on track and deal with their issue at hand.

The purpose of the article is to share the benefits of coaching with everyone who may feel stuck, or be at a crossroads in their life and ready for a change. Coaching can help. As a Coach I am my client’s biggest fan. I am dedicated to supporting them reach their goals and have a life they want and love!
