Business coaching tools to help (aspiring) entrepreneurs and small businesses grow, personally and professionally.

Why should every business owner hire a small business coach?

A business owner needs coaching but hardly asks for it. One of the main reasons for this ‘coaching gap’ is that the owner-manager of a business requires help asking the right questions. This means the owner must develop an accurate sense of what is going on in their business. But being an essential part of that same business makes it much harder to be objective about how the business is progressing. And that makes it even more difficult to discover how that affects them personally. 

Another downside of not asking the right questions is that small business owners are—wrongfully—convinced they can turn around any problem themselves. Pride in their leadership, not wanting to be accountable to someone, and willingness to learn but resistance to change aren’t helping either. You need a coaching toolkit to break through this virtual barrier. 

On the other hand, business coaches have difficulty attracting new clients and creating a steady income flow. Social media isn’t a strong suit for the coach; marketing and selling themselves as a coach and their business coaching services or coaching program aren’t either. Even for a professional coach, executive coach, career coach, or even an experienced coach, this is a problem. However, they will wait to admit it. The coaching profession requires coaching skills like asking the right questions and listening instead of promoting and marketing, which an entrepreneur needs to demonstrate. 

A great tool for your coaching practice

A small business coaching toolkit can help overcome this gap. The freemium packages offer free business coaching tools for the coach. This freemium coaching toolkit is free for the business owner. Many business owners are more curious about how well they do than other successful businessmen and women. It offers the coach the first approach to a complimentary coaching session. At the same time, it provides the business owner-manager with a stepping stone to getting familiar with the benefits of coaching.

Our coaching tools or executive coaching tools, used throughout the coaching process, shift the owner’s viewpoint. The toolkit gently seduces them to reflect upon themselves and to assess their motivation, skill, capability, and knowledge. Once their strengths and weaknesses are mapped out, our toolkit helps to translate them to goal setting. Goal setting is even enhanced with a Smart Goal Wizard and a SWOT Confrontation coaching app to ensure success. 

Coaching relationship

Research points out that the critical success factor of small business coaching is whether or not the coach and his client have sufficient communication skills.

The coaching conversation is the main playing ground. Whether it is executive coaching, life coaching, group coaching, business coaching, or even virtual coaching, the coaching relationship is crucial to both parties’ success.
