The Eight Benefits of Life or Business Coaching
1. FULFILLS VISION AND GOALS
What are your visions and goals? A lot of my clients will throw out airy-fairy goals. Now I like a challenge, but I’m also a realist. It’s important to look at historical data and set realistic goals.
A business coach can help you achieve them. More importantly, they make sure your goals are realistic and on point.
And here’s a quick tip: Create long-term goals that won’t only benefit your business, but your entrepreneurial life too.
So aside from reaching your target ROI or revenue in a year, coaching can help you to achieve the life you want.
You can freely tell your coach about your other goals. Do you want more free time? Travel? The opportunity to pursue other passions? Try a different line of business?
A business coach will come up with a plan to make these things possible without compromising your business’s success.
2. HELPS YOU GAIN PERSPECTIVE
As a coach, I don’t make the decisions or produce the results.
I’m here to learn the ins and outs of your business so I can provide insights and guidance on every step or move you make. A good coach will help you to identify key challenges, make smarter decisions, focus on money-making projects, and develop strategies that take your business to the next level.
So, coaches create an impact by redirecting your perspective on the right path. They change the way you think and act for the better, and this usually provides great results.
3. OUTLINES A CLEAR ROADMAP
Having a coach is not the same as asking a friend for guidance. While friends and family mean well, unless they’ve built a successful and profitable business, they don’t understand what you’re going through. And they never will.
So, they might suggest you try a bunch of random tactics, but they can’t guarantee results.
On the other hand, business coaching comes with a plan—a clear roadmap—that you can follow and implement to grow your organization. Remember, your coach has probably built several companies in your industry. They’ve been where you are. They’ve made mistakes and learned vital lessons.
You’re reaping the benefits of this knowledge, so make the most of it.
4. IMPROVES SKILLS
No matter how long you’ve been in business, you’re always learning. It’s vital to your development and your company’s success.
Good business coaches don’t spoon-feed. We’re here to help you improve your skills.
So first, a business coach will identify how you work, learn, and relate to others. Then here’s where your work comes in. You need to identify:
What areas do you have to improve?
Do you have problems with communication?
A coach will be there to guide, instruct, and offer encouragement and direction as needed, but you’ll get the freedom and autonomy to make progress and meet your goals.
5. BOOSTS CONFIDENCE
As an entrepreneur, you’ve probably gone through a lot in your personal and business life. And your confidence can take a knock. But no matter what happens, don’t let these negativities and fears get the best of you.
Business coaching offers an invaluable space for personal development and support.
Whether you’re just starting your business or you’re a seasoned business owner, coaching provides support and encourages you to work things out on your own. With time, you’ll learn to trust yourself to lead with confidence and tackle challenges.
6. IMPROVES PERFORMANCE AND PROFITABILITY
Leadership affects employee performance. And unfortunately, a demotivated team is more likely to produce substandard work which can affect client retention and eventually profitability.
So if you’re struggling to manage and communicate effectively with your managers and employees this could impact their performance and output.
To be an effective leader you must understand your strengths, weaknesses, and what motivates you. Coaching is pivotal to self-development.
Business coaches offer insights for management and leadership advice. They can help you find the leadership style that works for you.
Employees who work under great leaders tend to be more satisfied, productive, and connected to their organization. In return, this has a ripple effect that reaches your business’s end goal.
7. IMPROVES LEADERSHIP
Some of today’s most successful business owners once worked with a business coach. For example, Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google hired a coach recommended by a board member despite his company growing. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates also invested in coaching.
Why? Because they recognized that the best investment you can make is investing in yourself. One-on-one or group coaching will help you clarify your goals, build a winning strategy, and implement an action plan that will likely increase your revenue.
8. HOLDS YOU ACCOUNTABLE
Accountability is massively vital to the success of your small business. The objective of business coaching is to take you from point A to point B.
Having worked with clients as a coach, and been mentored by other coaches, I know you’ll only benefit from coaching if you pay for it. The thing about investing money is you want to get a return.
And you’re wasting your dollars if you’re not implementing the growth strategies your coach advises. So not only will a good coach challenge you to think broader, try new ideas, and take risks, but they’ll also hold you accountable.

Small Business set-up

As newborns, we’re unaware that the warmth of the blanket, that smiling face, and all those interesting sounds exist outside of us. Our point of view is all we know. The whole universe seems to exist within ourselves.
Soon enough we begin to separate “me” from “not me.” This is my hand (me), and that’s your hand (not me). Understanding that other people and objects are physically separate from us is the first step we take in disembedding (separating) from our own subjectivity (point of view).
