According to statistics from the U.S. Department of Commerce:
Many business failures are caused by faulty assumptions about running a business. Perhaps the most dangerous assumption is that if you understand the work of a business, you understand how to run the business that does that work.
At EBS, we consult with companies to solve specific financial, operational and marketing problems. We also provide business coaching to help owners and managers set long-term personal and business goals, monitor results, and improve their quality of life while growing their businesses.
Our approach is highly personalized and designed to teach companies how to run profitable businesses. After meeting with our clients, we determine together what type of services, consulting or coaching, may be needed for business owners and managers to move their companies and lives forward.
We understand that all businesses need help at various times. Even well-run organizations encounter difficulties adding a new product or service, changing marketing strategies, writing business plans, or compiling the information needed to obtain credit for expansion. Some businesses grow too fast and others not quickly enough.
Our Consulting Services include:
We coach business owners and managers by drawing on our education, training and experience in running businesses. We provide support and advice to help business leaders recognize potential growth, set benchmarks, and implement strategies to improve business performance. We teach companies how to strengthen leadership and decision-making skills, and we show managers how to improve employee training, development and accountability. We help business leaders create a teamwork-oriented work environment, and teach them to monitor progress by analyzing financial and customer feedback. Most importantly, we help business owners learn to “work on their businesses” instead of “in their businesses.”
When Is Coaching Is Needed?
Many business owners believe that coaching is needed only when a company is performing badly or when specific problems like employee retention or productivity need to be addressed. However, proactive businesses interested in excellent performance and achievements recognize the benefits of coaching even when their companies appear successful. Coaching offers a fresh perspective, expertise, and the guidance that can make the difference between owning a business that makes a living and owning a business that helps owners reach their life goals.
Here Are Some Signs That Your Business Can Benefit From Coaching:
Providing Hands-On-Help
Unlike many business coaches who have little or no business experience, we bring years of line and senior-level management experience. We are veterans in the fields of accounting, marketing, sales, and business planning. Our experience and training in coaching techniques make it possible for EBS to partner with businesses to improve performance, increase the bottom line, and ultimately, help owners regain their entrepreneurial vision.
Coaching Is Provided In A Number Of Ways Including:
After an initial fact-finding consult, we meet with clients regularly to review financial statements and other feedback, discuss performance and progress, and revise goals and benchmarks.
The Goal of Coaching
At EBS, the ultimate goal of coaching is to help individuals or businesses develop the habits, structures and goals to achieve success. As a certified small business coach, Denise Robinett works with business owners and managers to develop the skills, knowledge and attitudes to improve their businesses.
Most business owners need change in their lives: a better balance of work and home, more fulfilling work, a sense that daily tasks are getting them where they want to go. At EBS, we know the pressures and possibilities of business. Our goal is not only to help business leaders see the possibilities, but show them how to turn possibilities into measureable, sustainable achievements.
