| Why Use A Coach? |

...But To Do So Need Some Guidance, Someone To Bonce Ideas Off, Someone To Challenge You and Hold You Accountable So You Do What You Say You Are Going To Do?
If you answered yes, don't worry you are not alone. When you feel that way you may hesitate, procrastinate or make poor choices, end up with a continually never-ending 'To Do' list but not really accomplish much at all. The result could be that your business grows at a slower pace than you had hoped, or worse, stagnates (which in today's market means you are going backwards!) and you just end up feeling stressed and frustrated. What makes the difference between someone who is highly productive and someone who is not?
Is Your Business ‘Too Hot' To Handle On Your Own?
Business coaching is like the handle on a mug of hot chocolate. Without it the mug would be too hot to handle. The handle makes it easier, more comfortable and it guides your mug where you want it to go. There is less chance of spilling your hot chocolate (what your business offers) if you have a handle (a business coach) on your mug (your business).
What Do The Most Successful Leaders In Business, Sports And Entertainment Have In Common?
They all have a coach or mentor. No matter what level of success you have obtained, you need the support, you need the challenge and you need another set of eyes to spot things you may miss. Without someone to guide you, ask you the right questions so that you get the right answers, and give you essential feedback, you could be making errors in judgment that may be jeopardising your business growth. The difference between the success and failure of your business lies in whether or not you are implementing the right strategies, grasping the right opportunities and most importantly using your time and resources wisely. So if successful people hire coaches on their journey to the top (remember they had to start somewhere), then wouldn't it make sense that as a small business owner you would want to hire a coach to increase your chance of success too? Why stumble around in the dark when someone else's guidance could help you switch on the light so you can see clearly where you need to go, and what you need to do to get there?
The Top 3 Reasons Why People Hire a Coach
The International Coaching Federation conducted a Global Survey and found that the top 3 reasons why people hire a coach is to obtain guidance in: - 1. Career opportunities 2. Business Management 3. Self-esteem/self confidence The survey also showed that the majority (69.1% in total) of people who hire a coach are aged between 36 and 55 years old, with females leading the charge at 65% and males at 35%. The survey respondents were also asked if they would repeat the coaching experience, and a whopping 96.2% said yes! Why do you think that is? Because it's hard to succeed on your own.
So how does this survey relate to your need for business coaching? The quality of your productivity and the amount of self-confidence you have, are invariably linked. If your confidence isn't there, it's hard to manage your business effectively and efficiently. You may hesitate to take action, have challenges making decisions, make poor choices when you do take action and end up resenting the business that you were so very excited about in the beginning. When you have a coach to guide you to being the most productive you can be, and help you to develop your business confidence, your chances of success can certainly improve.
