Business Coaching Perth

Half the Time for More Money

Click here to hear Interview with Sean

I own and operate Allen's Martial Arts Academy in Greenwood Western Australia. At present we have 400 students, 14 paid staff and run 60 classes per week.

Initially I became involved with Action because of the time that was involved in growing a business of this size and its resultant pressures on my family life and of course my own. I was working 80 hour weeks and had been doing so for 5 years. Staff training was negligible, systems were dependant on me being there and we had hit a plateau that we couldn’t seem to move from.

Since working with Action there have been several changes to the operation that have been a distinct advantage to myself and my business. Firstly the time I put into the business has decreased to approximately 40 to 50 hours per week. Systems have been established so that when I am not there I can ascertain how the business is performing and design effective methods of counteracting any problems.

A systemised approach to staff training has been established that has had several advantages:

• My staff are more motivated to perform at a higher level through the creation of a mission statement and a direct way of allowing them to increase their income earning capacity as they move the business towards the Company's goals.
• Service has improved because clients are given a more professional image and are handled with care and concern.
• Interest has now been generated in our Franchising operation because prospective franchisees can see the attractive lifestyle and income possibilities.

So the goal for me now is to design a business that will allow me to have enough free time to pursue my own personal goals with no change in income. Looking back on the achievements that have been possible since starting with ActionCOACH , this next step will be a mere formality.

300% Growth in 12 Months

Before I began working with Action Coaching I was working my business as a job. Long hours with no real direction or purpose. Consequently no real success was being achieved. Through their help and guidance and most of all keeping me accountable, I have been able to steadily change the way I do business.

I have systematically grown my business and achieve some wonderful results, by working smarter not harder and having real plans and goals. For the last 2 years my revenue has grown by 20% each year and last year my net profit after wages has grown by 300%. And the most remarkable thing is that I have done this working less hours from 60 hours a week to 40 hours a week.

I love being part of the Action family.

Turnover Doubled in a Few Short Months

"Joining ActionCOACH was the smartest move of my life! My coach is one of the most inspiring people I have met. I cannot believe how in only a few short months my turnover has doubled and not only that I have more time to enjoy life as well!"

360% Increase in Turnover and a Life!

I've been a business owner since I was 24. I love the independence of doing things my way. I have had several businesses from retailing to manufacturing to service businesses. One of those businesses is an Automatic Transmission workshop that I own with my husband, Colin. Our business plodded along for 7 years, paying the bills and giving us a modest income.

We worked really hard and rewarded ourselves with a 1 week holiday each year. We knew we could do better in our business but didn't know how, and we didn't want to work our whole lives just to end up on a pension. That was before we discovered Action, or more accurately they found us.

We spoke to an Action coach who showed us what life could be like as business owners working on our business, and not just in it. We've been working with our coach for 17 months and the difference is amazing. Before coaching we had no idea that we knew so little about our business. We had no systems, no plan, no life!

After coaching - we have a life!

We're having FUN with our business again. We have more money, we've just had 3 weeks holiday in America, and we're planning more trips. We now know how to plan for the business to run without us and provide us with a passive income within the next few years.

Business is going from strength to strength. Profits are up by 29% and we recently had our best month ever - 360% increase in turnover (revenue) on the same month last year. We have begun recruitment for new team members to handle all the extra work. We are implementing systems so the business can run without us and in the very near future we are planning on opening another branch. Business is great!

Awards and 455% Profit Growth

We completed the Business Mastery Program with Action and we learnt so much about business and the massive potential of our business it sent our heads spinning.

We've done some more work with Action since and these are some of our achievements:

• We won our category of the small business awards last October in the Rockingham/Kwinana Region ...
• Profit has increased by 455% ...
• We have such a clear plan for our business and know exactly what we need to be doing every day to get there ...

Thanks Action ...

4hrs a Week for $100k a Year!!

We own an electrical contracting business in Perth Western Australia, which has now become more like a labour hire company. When our Action Coach first started working with us our bank account was in the red and our business and home were both on the line. We figured we'd done everything we could possibly do and now it was time for some help.

9 Months later we are virtually retired. We only work 4 hours a week each to attend management meetings and keep our fingers on the pulse these days. The business makes us $100K each year and pays for both our cars. Now we spend most of our time investing in property, learning the options market and enjoying the passive income we get from our business. Best of all we've now got more time for our kids and for sailing, which has got to be the only reason to have a business, right!

We'd recommend Action Business Coaching to any business owner who wants more money and more time.

155% Growth in First 5 Months

"In the first 5 months working with ActionCOACH our profits increased by 155% and in the last 3 months we've made just as much profit as we did for the previous 6 months... but it's not just about making more money, we've also now got more clarity about our business and where it's heading. We've been able to open our shop within 12 months of having our coach - our original goal was 5 years before starting with Action.

We're also putting some fantastic systems in place to help our business run more efficiently and our team have a clear understanding of what we expect from them and why. And to top it all off, we won the Business of the Year Award for the Rockingham and Kwinana region, which is pretty amazing stuff for a small business like ours. Every business needs an Action business coach if they want to be the best they can be."
