4 Reasons You Should Seek Out a Business Coach
So, you made the leap from being an employee to owning a business. Congratulations, you’ve just entered the ranks of becoming a soon-to-be entrepreneurial failure or a near-term startup success.
Of course, the question becomes how do you stay alive as a newfound business owner? After all, being a subject matter expert in a particular job is one thing, being a generalist for an industry (an organizational leader) is something else entirely.
There comes a point where stagnation sets in. You can take yourself only so far without the help of others. Hey, it happens. Consider it part of the startup lifecycle.
Enter the business coach. There isn't anything else that you receive 100 percent dedicated attention to you. A business coach is somebody who helps you move from where you are to where you want to be, and does so by solely focusing on your goals.

HIRE A COACH! Years ago, I wanted to get into real estate investing. I bought about every damn course out there, even that Sheets course you saw on TV. Then I stumbled across a guy who charged $5,000 to coach me in Lease Options/Purchases for a year. He was and still is the LP guru. Claude coached me to my first deal in just 38 days. My second deal was complete just 17 days after that. I earned back my coaching fee and had over $2000 in my pocket by that time. Over the course of a year I did 7 deals and earned well over $20k. Claude now charges $25K for the same coaching/mentor program.
I'm now about 4 months away from my first book launch. I've wanted to do this for years. I hired a coach a few months ago and he's walking me through the entire process from the outline to book cover, self publishing, book launch event and so much more.
A great coach has all the contacts, knowledge and ability to keep you on track.
Tip: Make sure the coach has done what you want to do, and done it very well. Do your due diligence. There are many so called coaches out there who could not make it, but feel they can teach it. And they probably can. But they are lacking one very important element, the experience to actually get it done.

Congratulations to you and completely agree with you on your comments about doing your Due diligence as there are so many companies or people out there who state they are some kind of Marketing or Business development Guru and just out to make quick dollar .
I have met and work with some of the most amazing coaches out there who I would highly recommend to any company or connection where I have received my return of investment , I am just about to launch my third business in few weeks and that is down to training and coaching I have received .
The coach is Ex Navy Seal who I have lot of time for and look up to with his programme which he does offer and now market his services into my global networks .
