Business Coaching

Business coaching is a professional development process where experienced business coaches work with entrepreneurs and business owners to improve performance, overcome challenges, and achieve growth goals.

Our business coaching approach focuses on strategic planning, accountability, and practical implementation rather than theoretical advice.

Our business coaching team consists exclusively of successfully exited entrepreneurs. Unlike traditional business coaches who may have only theoretical knowledge, our business coaches have actually built, scaled, and sold their own agencies.

This real-world experience makes our business coaching more practical and results-focused.

Our business coaching clients typically see a 40% average revenue increase. Business coaching works because it provides external perspective, strategic clarity, and accountability that’s difficult to achieve alone. The ROI of professional business coaching often exceeds 250-500% within the first year.

Most business coaching relationships show initial improvements within 60-90 days. However, sustainable business coaching results typically develop over 6-12 months as new systems and strategies are implemented. Our business coaching is designed for long-term transformation, not quick fixes.

We primarily work with creative agencies and service-based businesses, including:

Creative & Digital Services:

• Designers and creative agencies
• Web developers and software developers
• Content writers and content creators
• Social media marketing agencies
• Public relations agencies
• Shopify agencies and e-commerce specialists

Service-Based Businesses:

• Professional services (accountants, solicitors, consultants)
• Engineering and technical consultancies
• Solar and renewable energy companies
• Healthcare and wellness services
• Any business that sells time, expertise, or services rather than physical products

Why these industries? Because service businesses face similar challenges around scaling time-based work, building systems, and creating predictable revenue – challenges we’ve solved in our own agencies.

We work with both! Our Business Coaching is perfect for:

Solopreneurs (generating £10k+ monthly) who are ready to:

• Build their first team members
• Systematise their processes
• Scale beyond doing everything themselves
• Prepare for agency-level growth

Established agencies who need ongoing guidance to:

• Break through revenue plateaus
• Improve operational efficiency
• Prepare for strategic transformation

If you’re a solopreneur generating under £10k monthly, our Selling Creative Services Course is the perfect option to help you achieve this level of revenue.

If you run any type of service business – whether that’s solar installations, engineering consultancy, or professional services like accounting – we can likely help. The frameworks we use for scaling service businesses are industry-agnostic.

The key qualifier isn’t your specific industry, but whether you:

• Sell time, expertise, or services (not physical products)
• Generate £10k+ monthly revenue
• Want to scale systematically rather than just work harder

We’ve successfully coached businesses across dozens of service industries using the same proven scaling frameworks.

We offer two levels of Growth Business Coaching:

Standard Coaching (£700/month): Monthly sessions with email support

Premium Coaching (£1,500/month): Monthly sessions plus unlimited WhatsApp/Loom/email access between sessions

Most growing agencies benefit from the premium level because business challenges don’t wait for scheduled meetings.

Most clients stay in coaching for 6-12 months before either:

• Progressing to our Strategic Growth Programme (most common)
• Continuing with ongoing coaching for continuous support
• Graduating to independent growth (less common)

The goal isn’t to keep you in coaching forever – it’s to build the foundations that prepare you for the next level of growth.

1-1 business coaching is the process of our business coaches working directly with the founder or leader of our client’s business.

It is designed to directly support your personal and commercial ambitions. We do this by focusing on short-reactive needs while giving significant consideration to your future goals.

Though our 1:1 online coaching sessions are predominantly held during Belfast business hours, we aim to fit in with your schedule and so can host sessions early evening and weekends at agreed times.

Its our ambition to help you set clear goals, establish a vision, hold you accountable for your progress toward achieving them, and provide valuable feedback.

When selecting a business coach, it’s crucial to understand fully the experience and knowledge prospective partners have. Do they have experience working with businesses like yours? Do they have successful case studies? Importantly, have they learned their knowledge from running their own successful business?

However, the best business coach for your business will always be the one you can happily work with. Do you like them? Trust their judgement and have an honest conversation about the challenges you face. If so, you’re already half way to success.

Absolutely! In fact, 85% of our coaching clients eventually progress to our Strategic Growth Programme once they’ve built the foundations and reached the revenue threshold.

Growth Business Coaching clients receive:

• Priority access to the Strategic Growth Programme
• 15% discount on programme investment
• Seamless transition with existing knowledge of your business

Many clients use coaching to prepare for and qualify for the full transformation programme.
