How We Help Small Business Owners
We are a group of leaders and entrepreneurs using our years of experience in Christian Business Coaching to help owners like you find freedom. Whether you are struggling to maximize your business’ potential or it’s growing too fast for you to keep up, our business coaches can help.
Defy the Odds with the Help of a Christian Business Coach
Everyone in a small business or solo profession has heard the statistic “9 out of 10 businesses fail in the first year”. Some of us have a rebellious spirit and believe we will naturally defy the odds. Others go into a conservative mode and may not give 100% necessary to make their business successful. Yet, a select few, will consider this statistic seriously and determine how they will be among the 10% who succeed.
Ten percent will plan upfront and secure the resources that will ensure their success. Ten percent will realize that to successfully run a small business you must have a breadth of talent and business skills and these same will search for complementary resources to cover the areas of expertise they themselves may lack.
Are you in this 10%? If so, Christian Business Coaching is a resource that can help you plan for success. We are here to help small businesses and solo entrepreneurs succeed by:
- Creating a business plan that is focused and targeted to achieve your business and life goals.
- Evaluating the skills and talents that the business requires to be successful.
- Developing marketing plans that will attract your target market.
- Developing systems and foundations for your business that are expandable as you grow and do not require your minute-by-minute presence.
Many times, Christian small business owners do not have partners or key managers to help with the challenges and opportunities that are inevitable. With Christian business coaching, we want to be that partner for you. We will:
- Brainstorm ideas and solutions.
- Be an objective sounding post for your plans and actions.
- Provide resources to deal with stress and anxiety.
- Suggest tools to unleash your leadership potential.
- Be an encourager to celebrate and pray with you.
We are here to help you succeed!
