Do You Need a Business Strategy Coach?
Within your business, it’s difficult to self-assess to find areas of deficiency that need development. That’s why you need a business strategy coach.
Bloggers, speakers, and service-based entrepreneurs often delay acquiring a business coach. They think a professional coach is for well-established brands with large teams.
They think their business isn’t developed enough to warrant a professional coach.
The truth is everyone needs a coach.
I hired a personal coach when I was competing in an international speech competition. I knew I needed someone to help me see the strengths and weaknesses of my speech. It paid off. I became District Champion in 2015.

7 Ways a Coach Can Help You Succeed
1. Provides an Objective Perspective
Sometimes we can’t find the gaps in our work. We’re too intricately connected to see objectively. A coach will help you see the blind spots and bridge the gap.
2. Suggest Helpful Strategies
A coach has gone further than you and has experienced losses and gains. Their valuable input includes skills, training, and experience. You will save months, even years, of pitfall by hiring a coach.
3, Keep You Accountable
You can’t fool an experienced coach. Honest communication will help you grow. Uncovering obstacles is often addressing internal conflict rather than external tactics.
4. Assess Weaknesses and Strengths
A coach will ask questions to understand your strengths and weaknesses. Know your sweet spot and understand your strengths. This will allow you to focus on what you do best and redirect or delegate other areas of your business.
5. Helps You Break Comfort-Zone Barriers
Opportunities often out-weight our present skillsets. A coach can help you see a means toward growth and success. The momentary discomfort could win your dramatic results.
6. Become Your Trusted Ally
A coach is someone you can trust because they have no hidden agenda. They succeed when you succeed. Their guidance will help you stay focused on needle-moving activity.
7. Recognize and Celebrate Your Progress
Working from home can lead you to isolation. We all need recognition, accolades, and someone who believes in us. A coach can help you celebrate milestones and progress.

Here are 3 Ways To Secure a Coach
Yes, we need to invest in ourselves. Why?
There’s plenty of free content online. It takes a higher level of commitment to grow an online business.
But you don’t have to break the bank. There are different ways you could secure a coach.
- Hire a personal coach. (Largest investment, but one-on-one coaching is most effective. )
- Register for a group coaching program. (Mid-range investment with a fixed length of time and high-touch engagement.)
- Join a mastermind. (Mid to High investment, depending on the frequency and length of the program.)
Without skin in the game, many will not do the work needed to scale. No financial investment leads to halfhearted commitments.
I’ve invested in personal coaches, group programs, and mastermind memberships. People like Michael Hyatt, Mike Kim, Ray Edwards, Jonathan Milligan, and other influencers still impact my life and business.
We can’t succeed without the wisdom of experienced mentors.
Interacting and learning from leaders gives us the winning edge.
Secure a Business Strategy Coach

Make sure there’s a clear path to grow your leads.
Nurture a growing email list. It’s your greatest asset and a foundational step to business growth.
