Eric Dombach, I just signed a family style restaurant and catering business. The owners’ goals are to increase profits and get some time back for themselves so they can spend more time with their (3) teenage children. They have signed up for coaching at $1,250 per month and $1,750 for the Strategic Planning process totaling $ 3,000 for my first check.

I recently signed my first three clients all within the last week. All three clients were obtained through networking within my BNI group!
The first is an audio-video production and entertainment company with a goal of growing revenues and profits so that he can quit his second job (second shift) to build a business to support his family. I signed this one for $750 per month plus $750 for the Strategic Plan for a total of $1,500.
The second is a trophy and engraving business with a goal of increasing revenue and profitability and reducing errors and waste in the manufacturing process to build a business he can pass on to his son. I signed them for $500 per month plus $500 for the Strategic Plan for a total of $1,000.
In addition to all the scripting which helps my sales presentation, the coaching calls with you help a lot. If I didn’t have those, I’d be kind of alone with no chance to talk about all the negative or positive things and try to fix them. I think it’s a good model to achieve success!

I have been working the system for 6 weeks under the guidance of Eric Dombach. The coaching calls are necessary for accountability, business process questions, real teaching moments and creating doable plans and course corrections to continue marketing my new business. Eric (The Yoda of Business Coaching!) coaches me on a weekly basis for 30 minutes. He provides an extraordinarily high degree of accountability and expectations and he will not settle for sub-par performance. He is simultaneously approachable and a valuable resource for solutions and recommendations.
I’m happy to say that I just completed my third Complementary Coaching Session with a prospect and walked away with a check for $3,000. My new client buys, reconditions and sells large industrial plant equipment such as air handlers, chillers, boilers, manufacturing assembly lines. The business is three years old and profitable but growth is stagnant. Initial diagnosis indicated that my client has reached his capacity to grow the business because he feels he has to do everything. He verbalized his real problem: “I cannot do it all alone. I have to learn to delegate and manage the business and not be involved in every single transaction the business conducts.”
For me, your coaching helps me remember I am not in this game alone. Others with experience are available to answer questions and brainstorm solutions to problems that come up. The coaching process is not always pain free but very necessary to succeed!

In the month of July I landed my first business coaching client, a pizzeria owner with a total of 17 stores. I met with the business owner face to face and in the second meeting, the “Complementary Coaching Session,” I walked away with an agreement for $2,000 per month. So far, I’ve received $6,000 in coaching fees from this client.
During one of our calls, Eric Dombach coached me on how to correct the fact that I had begun to do too much “consulting” (doing the work for the client) and I wasn’t charging enough for what I’m doing. So I went back to my client and he agreed to invest in a higher value coaching program. He realizes that the current economic climate requires him to be more aggressive. Next month I will begin billing this client at $2,750 per month for 1 hour per week of coaching. Thanks for pushing me, coach!

Big news! I just closed a new client for $1,750 per month and received a check for $3,500 which pays for the first month of coaching and the Strategic Planning process. They’re a bus company wanting to grow and gain market share in this economy. I got the lead back in April from my telemarketing vendor.
Eric Dombach- thank you very much for spending the day with me. It was an awesome learning experience for me! As I think back on the day, here are the key lessons learned: when you discover a problem area, you need to go into specific questions about the application of the relevant Silver Bullets so the prospect can “experience coaching” with you. If the prospect has not talked for a while or you sense potential concerns or questions, check-in with them. Do this every 30 to 60 seconds as needed. Make sure they are engaged! Make sure there are not any unanswered questions prior to proposing coaching.
Eric, having you there to personally watch and participate in a live Complementary Coaching Session and give detailed feedback was invaluable. We all learn from feedback. While classroom is great to get you going, live is perfect to help perfect areas that you may not even know you need help with. I would highly recommend to everyone to take advantage of your coaching! Thanks again for your assistance in helping me attain another client!
