Why ActionCOACH

Every great performer, whether an elite athlete, business legend or performing superstar, is surrounded by coaches and advisors.

As the world of business moves faster and gets more competitive and difficult to keep up with both the changes in your industry and the innovations in sales, marketing and management strategies as well........... Having a Business Coach is no longer a luxury, it's become a necessity.

On top of all of this, it's difficult to get a truly objective answer from yourself. Don't get me wrong, you can survive in business without the help of a Coach, but it's almost impossible to thrive...

* A Coach CAN see the forest for the trees.
* A Coach will make you focus on the game.
* A Coach will make you run more laps than you feel like.
* A Coach will tell it like it is.
* A Coach will give you small pointers.
* A Coach will listen.

A Coach will be your marketing manager, your sales director, your training co-ordinator, your partner, your confidant, your mentor, your best friend... and an ActionCOACH will help you make your dreams come true.

Why Work with Rod Trahan?

Rod Trahan is a lifetime entrepreneur, a licensed ActionCOACH Business Coach and business owner.

Rod grew up outside a small Montana town on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation. Through his growing up years, despite a near 70% unemployment rate in his community, Rod relied upon his entrepreneurial instincts to fund his material interests.  For example, while other kids his age were running lemonade stands, Rod was selling eggs to their parents through his own egg farm, selling BBQ and Fireworks to tourists, and recycling metals.

Rod holds a Bachelors degree in Business Administration and an MBA from the University of Montana.  After college he went to work for a national corporation where he quickly “climbed the corporate ladder.” After a few years in the corporate world and pursuing his dream of becoming an Olympic Athlete, Rod came back to Montana to start a family. 

Prior to starting his coaching and consulting business, Rod spent twelve years utilizing his entrepreneurial spirit improving fundraising results for a Fortune 400 non-profit organization.  Under Rod’s direction his department increased annual fundraising revenues from 3 to 4 million up to 8 to 10 million  dollars annually. Through his formal education and coupled with “the entrepreneurial school of hard knocks,” Rod has developed a keen understanding and appreciation for the concepts of Marketing, Sales, Leadership, Teambuilding, Profitability, and Time Management.

Rod’s goal is to leverage the entrepreneurial spirit and energy within this region, to create a world class standard of business excellence by coaching and educating small business owners to their fullest potential.  Although Rod has helped a number of small businesses by consulting with them, he gets more satisfaction in coaching business owners to greater success. By helping to create and nurture a profitable and sustainable business environment within the communities he serves, Rod feels that he is not only helping to enhance the standard of living, but also promoting by example the principles of honesty, integrity, family values, and community service.

Both Rod and his wife Nicole are extremely happy to be able to live and work in the same general area in which they grew up. 

Rod is passionate about helping local business owners achieve their business and life goals.  Are you ready to embark on that fun and gratifying challenge? Call Rod today for a complimentary Business Analysis.
