I signed up a new client last Friday for a coaching program and strategic plan. He wrote me a check for $4,500 when he signed the agreement. The client was a referral from one of my networking contacts. Six weeks ago, I held a call with him and at the end of the call he told me he didn’t need a coach because he was working with a marketing consultant and that’s all he needs. So, no Complimentary Coaching Session! As it turns out, the marketing consultant is one of my networking contacts so I called him and discussed the client’s situation and we agreed that there was room for both of us. The marketing consultant recommended me to the client and the rest is history. I got two lessons out of this: (1) never let a “no” discourage you. In this case following up with another consultant turned the consultant into a strategic ally. (2) Listen to the client and be flexible in meeting his needs including his time and financial needs.

I signed a new client last week! So, that’s $2,250 for the first month of coaching and an additional $2,250 for strategic plan. The client is a $5 million market research firm and the owner is a former colleague and he’s putting together four other firms for a merger. We’ll start with the strategic plan for the overall organization and quickly move toward a team day with the four new principals to provide a basis for managing the integration. I also plan to do DISC/PIAV and Team Building System with the total group, a Tactical Marketing Plan, and Employee Acquisition Plan. The client originally gave me a “No” based upon his money situation but I asked him to think about what he had at risk if the integration didn’t go well and how difficult it might be to manage four formerly independent owners were the difference in making this one work out. He decided that coaching will help him through this process. Thanks again for your help in dealing with this one, Eric Dombach. It’s Nice to know that persistence really does pay off. It helps to make those repetitive phone calls.

Good news! I just signed a client I met at a networking event who owns two businesses, a translating business and a new product information guide. The client wants to rework and expand one of her businesses and potentially develop it into a franchise opportunity. We will be working on the Strategic Plan, Employee Acquisition Plan, and a Tactical Marketing Plan for starters. Another coaching program at $1750 per month!

“I’ve been a business coach for 3 to 4 years. I was doing okay, but instead of retaining my new clients, I was losing them. So I turned to Eric Dombach at Coaches’ Coach.
After just 4 months of working with him, I’ve gone from £3,500 per month to an incredible £7,000 per month. That’s DOUBLE!
Recently, I’ve hit the £14,000 per month mark!
Before, I was looking to ‘get by’ generating £70,000 a year…NOW I hope to get to the £300,000 mark in the next 12 months. If you’re serious about growing your coaching business, work with this man. I’m building a business now, not a job.”
