Business coaching is all the rage now because it allows entrepreneurs to dramatically grow their business in a fairly short time. It used to be that certification programs or business college courses would be labor intensive and take months or even years to complete. Then, after that, it would take another year for trial and error to achieve some level of success. Today, business coaching is like a catapult that, with a fairly short group of sessions, can reap high rewards in a short amount of time. Today’s successful coaches teach successful business methods that work in the real world. Most of these coaches are also “practicing what they preach” by being in the trenches doing what they are teaching.

John Bowen, co author of “Reaching For The Stars: How to Fast Track Your Business by Leveraging Mastermind and CEO Groups,” states that one out of six entrepreneurs seek and use business coaches to help them improve their business performance, thus raising revenues and profits. It is regarded as the most efficient way to make a great change in current business practices.

A great coach will act as your accountability partner, and your number one cheerleader. If done right, you are provided with a clear roadmap on how to get exactly what you want your business to be.
