Is it Time for a Needed Change?

What if the pressure was lifted?
What would you do with the added time?

Let me guess. You’d take some much needed time off.

Let’s face it. You give advice and guidance daily. You hold the weight of your business on your shoulders. You feel responsible for your staff, your customers and your family. You’re the voice of reason, the shoulder to cry on, the pillar of strength – right?

But who’s there for you? Who’s there to take the weight off your shoulders? Who’s there to help you face challenges head on with strength, conviction, and a plan that get gears moving in a forward motion rather than grinding to a halt? Who’s there to help you put successful strategies into place to increase your revenues beyond your wildest dreams?

I am.

My name is Bernie Powers. I am a Certified ActionCOACH Business Coach, and as your coach, I am there for you. Business Coaching has become more popular than ever because businesses are recognizing that coaching is not just effective for athletes, it’s necessary for business! These successful business owners have seen significant improvement in gross revenue and profits by following the proven strategies of their ActionCOACH.

“Bernie helped our company have the best year ever in 2010. He has helped with revenue generation, leadership, human resource management and accountability, just to name a few. I have and will continue to highly recommend Bernie to all my business clients, and encourage anyone to take full advantage of his knowledge and expertise.” July 21, 2011

Some challenges are exciting and breathe life into us. Other challenges are exhausting and take the wind out of us. Knowing how to handle each is the key.

Exciting Challenges

Ah, yes! The thrill of the hunt. Adrenaline pumps and blood flows through the veins when excitement surrounds you, but even exciting challenges can bring on stress and require attention. The key is having the right systems in place to handle success! I hold that key. I can help you.

Exhaustive Challenges

Ah, yes! A pain in the neck, right? Relationship challenges, financial, career challenges, health issues, difficult business decisions. No one is immune to hardships in life. The key is having the right systems in place to handle them. I hold that key. I can help you.

Yes. One key: Having the right systems in place and having the right coach there to help you. Clearly success and balance relate to accepting life situations, whether they are positive or negative and learning and growing from those experiences, but that is not always easy. Using a tried and true system is.

Take Action!

How can a BUSINESS COACH help?

Life coaches help people get back on track and find their lost passion. Athletic coaches help build their teams to be confident, successful, strong players. ActionCOACH business coaches help business owners identify challenges, establish principles, strategies, and define processes that are easy to implement, yet have a profound impact on the owner’s ability to attain a commercially profitable enterprise that runs on its own.

How can I help?

Simple. My Mission is to provide high performance business coaching to owners and executives in the Riverside and Corona California areas who are committed to improving the results of their business and the quality of their lives. I am energetic, positive, results-driven, and someone you can trust and count on. I understand that it is not easy to choose a business coach and assure you that I will do what it takes to earn your trust and guarantee my total commitment to making this relationship a worthwhile investment for you and your business.”

PROVEN ABILITY AS A BUSINESS LEADER

I have successfully managed businesses through difficult times in the past. The solutions to improving profits and the quality of your life are having the right plan, team and business processes. Successful businesses learn, adapt and implement better than their competition. It’s foolish to keep doing the same things and expecting different results…you must evolve or your business dies. "Working with Bernie has increased my gross revenue by 28% in a recession!"

25 YEARS OF BUSINESS COACHING EXPERIENCE

My experience includes leadership in the disciplines of business; sales, marketing, operations, human resources, building teams, inventory control and risk management. I have successfully coached business leaders for the past 25 years through varied challenges and opportunities.

CERTIFIED BUSINESS COACH FOR #1 COACHING FIRM IN THE WORLD

ActionCOACH is the #1 business coaching company in the World with over 1000 offices across the globe in 26 countries. My experience coupled with training in the systems and processes of the world’s most experienced coaching enterprise provides us the platform for immediate results and steady improvement in your business.

FORMAL EDUCATION IMPROVED BY BUSINESS EXPERIENCE

My education gave me a great foundation for understanding the key components of making your business successful. However, it was my life and business experience that taught me how to apply that knowledge to drive successful business ventures.

TEAM ORIENTATION THAT WILL FOCUS ON YOUR BUSINESS SUCCESS

I believe integrity and dependability are the most important personal assets you can have. A successful coaching relationship requires trust and is built on “doing what you said you would do." I will listen carefully to your challenges, concerns and goals so that we develop complete and effective solutions for your business. I promise you 100% commitment to insure we are both accountable to the solutions we determine necessary.

SITUATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND SUPERIOR BUSINESS STANDARDS

I am highly skilled in leadership, human resources, problem solving and conflict resolution. I will utilize the right approach for your business and team to make the fastest improvements. I am tenacious when faced with difficulties and will always seek new ways to find solutions. We will make decisions on facts and will hold ourselves to the highest standards of excellence in every aspect of our work. "Bernie has helped me realize I needed higher level employees in order to move my business forward...I am a much better leader now."

SMALL BUSINESS EXPERIENCE

I understand what it feels like to own your own business. My father purchased a small grocery store when I was 9 years old and our entire family worked in that business every day until I reached 15 years of age. We learned firsthand the level of commitment it takes to “survive” in your business. What my father didn't realize was that working harder doesn't always make you successful...working smarter would have been much more effective.

POSITIVE OUTLOOK AND A PASSION FOR HELPING OTHERS

A positive outlook can make a huge difference in what you can accomplish. We will work from the premise that victories in business come from a "can-do" attitude. My personal passion is helping others make a measurable difference in their business and their life. My reward is seeing your success make a difference in the quality of your life. Success is not measured by the amount of your possessions but in having the ultimate “freedom” to do what makes you happy in your business and life. "..Bernie motivated me to want to build a better and more successful business....he held me accountable!"
