Fletcher MoorlandActionCOACH brings together professional people who wish to enhance their business. The program delivered by the ActionCOACH leaders, challenges your values and beliefs in a way I have not experienced before in training or mentoring environments. The coaching sessions have given me common sense ideas and suggestions to work on my business in new and exciting ways. By implementing just one of the the business growth suggestions, my company will have added £15,000 to the bottom line in one month and that will be on-going for the next 12 months. Not bad for £500 investment, a return of over £200,000. Matt Fletcher (MD - Fletcher Moorland) Meaco LtdA great opportunity to meet with other small business owners and look at ways to take our business forward and achieve our dreams - both personal and business. With excellent coaches and lots of materials to back them up, ActionCLUB has been the best move I have made during the five years I have been running the company. Samantha Greatbach (Director - Meaco) One to One Coaching ClientsD2NAI’d like to take this opportunity to say a big thanks to Ian for all the invaluable help he has given with improving my business. The Action coach process is very sound and Ian implements it with great wisdom and tact. On a personal level Ian has encouraged me to get out of my comfort zone as often as possible and this has lead to greater confidence which has been a huge help achieving real results in the business. The service paid for itself within the first 3 months through the implementation of strategies to increase profit margins and make efficiency improvements. Since then Ian has been guiding us through the creation of a successful marketing plan which we are currently testing and measuring. Even to a marketing beginner like me, most of the process not rocket science and it would be easy to just sit back and say “I know that stuff” – but ‘knowing’ and ‘doing’ are not the same thing, and it’s only through working with Ian every week and being answerable to him that I have actually knuckled down and started to achieve the results that I want to see in the business. In the next quarter I look forward to driving up revenues with new business based on our 'tested & measured' marketing plan, and also making improvements to our business systems and team management (areas which we used to think we were pretty good at, but now I can see there is plenty of room for improvement) – so we are in a stronger position to manage the increased work load we expect to see. Before I started working with Ian I had concerns about the costs of the programme and the amount of time it would take up. Now I can’t imagine how we ever managed without him. I have no hesitation in recommending Ian to any business owner who feels they are working too hard, doesn’t have enough time, or is not generating the profits they should be.” Graham Doyle
ARC IT Solutions LtdFirstly I want to thank you for helping us to grow ARC IT Solutions over the last few months. I have learned so much during this time and also had fun doing it! Before the ActionCOACH program, as none of us had experience running a business, we were carrying our technical work out efficiently but were struggling to get any structure within the running of the business itself, meaning that it was standing still. As technical guys coming from a de-motivating corporate environment we desperately needed help to grow our fledgling company. Since we signed up to the program, we are more organised, with structured processes throughout, making the whole operation more professional. We now have a marketing plan that has helped us increase our sales by 23% in the last 6 months. We have also moved to larger premises and increased the number of staff by 25%. As well as these postitive measurable results we are also finding that we are much more motivated, enthusiastic and are really enjoying the challenge of running our business. We couldn't have done it without you Ian, so thanks for making ARC IT Solutions grow to the success it is today. Andy Rafferty - Managing Director
Groove AcademyDear Ian I may have been excited and passionate about my business but working with you as my Business Coach has helped to focus and direct my energy, which is translating into profit. Before we started working together I was an energetic missile, bouncing off the walls as I was distracted by different events. Following our structured, weekly meetings I have planned my time, measured my activitiy and my results accordingly. In only 2 months the number of leads generated by the marketing activity, has increased by 23%. With conversion rates growing with a structured customer journey system, the profits will also show significant improvement. In the quiet months of July and August, this is very important for the management of the cashflow. I am more than happy to discuss the benefits your coaching has brought to me and my business shoudld you know anyone that is considering this step. Feel free to pass my contact details as I know this can be considered a big step until you can picture the benefits it will bring. Please accept a big hug and squeeze as a thank you for your help in the success of Groove Academy. Kate Beauchamp
