What are the logistics?

Generally speaking most of your work together will be over the phone or email, although it may be supplemented in face to face meetings for local clients.  Weekly calls are scheduled ahead of time.  Phone charges are included in my fee, regardless of where you are in the world.  Weekly calls are generally supplemented by e-mail coaching at no extra charge.  ‘Power coaching’ phone calls in the interim between scheduled calls, are also included on a limited, as-needed basis, depending on your program.

There are three basic program options:

1)     The entry level Starter Program is based on 3 thirty minute scheduled calls and a week off every four weeks.  This is supplemented by email support and availability for tactical issues that come up.

2)     The Foundation Program coaching program is a weekly 45 minute phone call. You take on as much homework or home “play” as you choose.  Most of your learning, growth and action occur between the calls.  This is supplemented by email support and occasional phone availability for tactical issues as they develop.

3)     The Executive Program is a rigorous professional/personal growth and development program designed for very focused transformational development in business or personal career changes.  This is typically a structured program that we design together to produce specific business or personal results.  This includes written assignments, weekly scheduled calls 45-60 minutes, interim email and ‘power coaching’ calls.  The nature of this program and the resulting outcome requires a 6 month minimum.

How long would we work together?

We’ll usually start with a 3-6 month program for business owners.  I simply ask my clients to stay with me as long as they love the coaching, and are getting more value than the money they are paying.  This could range from 3 to 12 months or even a couple of years.

What does coaching provide?

It is different for each client.  Often I hear words like: accountability, direction, inspiration, focus, challenge, validation, sounding board or support.  But most often we are after specific, pre-determined results that will make a difference in your business and in your life.

Do you have any specialties? 

I most enjoy working with men and women looking for new opportunity, new direction, or some kind of transformational change in their business or personal lives.  These people can be small business owners, executives, managers or self-employed.  I also work with people who want to start their own businesses.

What is the cost?

These fee structures are for on going business and personal coaching programs.  Please note there are incentives built in for clients who commit to their growth and development over a specific period of time in order to achieve their goals.

Starter Program - The investment of 3 months of coaching is $900 which saves $225 over the monthly rate.  It is payable in advance or you may choose to pay the monthly standard rate at $375.  Coaching begins after receipt of the first payment.

Foundation Program - The investment of 3 months of coaching is $1200 which saves $225 over the monthly rate.  It is payable in advance.  The investment for 6 months of coaching is $2350 which saves $500 over the monthly rate.  Or you may choose to pay the monthly standard rate at $475.

Executive Program - The investment of 6 months of coaching is $3,900 which saves $600 over the monthly rate.  It is payable in advance.  The second option is for you to pay the monthly standard rate at $750.

Do I have a guarantee?

If once you have received your welcome pack and completed your first coaching session, and you do not feel completely happy that you have made the right decision, I will cheerfully refund your money in full.

This is a one time option, which you may exercise at the end of the first session only.  This option is good for month to month, or specified 3, 6 or 12 month sessions. 

 What if I decide not to finish the coaching term?

 If at some point during the coaching you are not getting the value, we will both know it.  You may cease coaching at the end of any 4-week cycle, and get a full refund for the unused portion.  You would then be charged at the normal monthly rate for the coaching you have used, rather than the discounted rate.

Who are my clients?

 I love working with people who know their lives could be better and are willing to discover a process for personal and professional growth in order for that to occur.  Typically it is men in the 30-60 age range, but I do work with women over the phone.  They are mainly self-employed, professionals, or business owners looking to expand or transform their operations or personal horizons.
