I’d estimate John’s impact on my business to be between 5 and 10-fold the costs of hiring him.
I hired John because I didn’t think I had all the answers. I wanted someone with experience that could see things differently from me, had skills in other areas and had objectivity, so that I wasn’t failing by myself.
My business was growing, I was launching new products and services and I specifically wanted to learn how to prepare my business to be attractive to a buyer.
John is efficient, intelligent, level-headed, flexible and a very good listener.
Together, we’ve been working through the Value Builder modules – improving the structure and operations of the business. This has included:
-
- Creating a recurring revenue subscription model
- Building new products and services
- Streamlining operations
- Improving our marketing
- Developing a massive website project
John is efficient, intelligent, level-headed, flexible and a very good listener. He’s very insightful. He has advice and recommendations can make a big difference to profitability and operations. One small idea can revolutionize the way you approach something or do something.
For example, he suggested offering a free “reset” on our Level One course to put the buyer’s mind at ease about whether they’re going to be successful. That single suggestion will pay for what I’ve paid John! And this was only one of many ideas and insights that John has shared with me.
When people consider business coaching, they may be reluctant to invest the time and money. I’d estimate John’s impact on my business to be between 5 and 10-fold the costs of hiring him.
It’s worth it, well worth it.
I’m very grateful to John and respect him a lot. I think he’s first class at what he does and I’m looking forward to working with him into the future.
