Are you working too many hours in your business?
Do you remember the "dream" to start your own business - has that dream become a nightmare?
Are you looking to regain control of your life and spend more time with family and friends?
I'm David Drewelow, Head Coach for the ActionCOACH Iowa/Nebraska Team and I am a business coach with the World’s #1 Business Coaching Franchise (Entrepreneur Magazine, since 2004).
My first business started when I was in college - a painting business in my small town where we spent summers painting hundreds of houses, barns, buildings and a few other interesting projects. That experience taught me the value of owning a business and today as a coach, my goal is to help small business owners, such as yourself, spend less time working in your business and more time working ON your business. The goal, in the end, is to help you be more profitable and to learn how to have FUN again in your business and your life.
As a small business owner myself in Iowa, I know what it is like to worry about the day-to-day survival of the business and making the amount of money needed to run my business and personal life. I understand what it’s like to put in long hours and wonder what happened to the dreams and vision I had for my life and future.
Based in Cedar Rapids, my firm of coaches is here to help you change all of that. We will work together to redefine your dreams and vision, and then we will put into place the necessary systems, strategies, and tactics that will allow you to turn your business venture into a thriving, successful one.
We define a successful business as: "A commercial, profitable enterprise that works without you!" As your Business Coach, I will function as an unreasonable friend who tells it like it is and keeps you working on the path toward your dreams.
There is no time like the present, right now, to get started on your dreams and goals. If you are ready to move your business to the next level, find out more about our team today. We offer a FREE, NO OBLIGATION consultation for all Iowa and Nebraska business owners. Find out how you can change the way you do business to achieve the results you deserve!
P.S. If you are a business owner, the first step to getting your business going is to take the "Business Health Check." Click here to get started.
