Business Coaching

The number of businesses hiring business coaches has never been higher than now. Often, businesses stagnate not just because of the economic conditions of the industry but because of the decision makers in them.

The purpose of a business coach is to find underutilised resources in a business and employ them efficiently in a way they haven't been before. Too often, options lie before our eyes and yet we still don't see them. Business owners and decision makers are like a lid in that their leadership ability is directly related to the growth of the business - the higher it is, the more the business and its employees can grow.

Having an introductory session is extremely helpful to both the business coach and the client as it helps each understand if value can be added to the client through business coaching. It is also strongly recommended in the early phases of business ideation as it can also act as a great market validation tool in which the coach can probe the business idea and it validate its viability.
Good business coaches will encourage you to fail fast and fail forward. Sometimes what we think is a great business idea has been rejected by the same market before but a small tweak to the business model can be the determining factor between a multi-million business and a failed one.
Introductory sessions are normally carried out over the phone, in a video call, or in person and last about an hour. During this time the coach explores the business and the challenge faced by the entrepreneur probing if various solutions have been explored in the past. Clients often find that there a number of venues which have not been explored and could significantly increase sales, revenue and the customer base.
