COACHING:

You have heard about coaching...in fact someone you know has worked with a coach and they are really seeing some positive results in their business and in their life...but...you aren't sure. There is something holding you back. Maybe you are stuck and are a little embarrassed to say so…you'd rather keep your own affairs to yourself.

Ten Attributes of Successful Coaches

So, if you aren't seeing the results you want out of your business or if things are not going quite the way you want them to, then call us.

You can reach us at 416-630-3527. Your call is strictly confidential and your first session is free. It's a chance for both of us to get to know each other.

If your business is in need of a change or boost or you are stuck in the middle of making the change necessary for you to move forward, but unsure of the direction you should go, then working with a business coach might be the answer for you. We work one-on-one with our clients to help them move through the issues that need to be addressed and work to create a whole new vision and purpose for themselves and their business. If you want to work on developing creative growth strategies for your business and work with a coach that thinks laterally and outside the box ... then call us.

Well, truthfully if I was you…I would be hesitant too...I mean coaching...me? I'll get through it this time...somehow...I can work alone...I don't need that extra help or pair of eyes and ears...or someone to bounce ideas off of. Not me...I have always done it alone...I mean hey…I just read "Think and grow rich"...that should change things around here...

Well...think again...coaching does help...and in case you aren't sure, here is what you must look at and consider when hiring a coach. Your coach must have the following qualities...

Our Philosophy:

At the Technicolour Umbrella, we believe that you are more than just your business. Your personal self is an integral part of your business as well. In our coaching sessions, we work with the "whole" you. Your life and business are usually carefully intertwined. We help you move towards a more desirable future with positive outcomes. The dream of entrepreneurship and the freedom and aliveness you can feel when you are successfully doing it on your own doesn't come easy. To get there, you need a team around to help guide you towards those goals.

We have developed the C.O.A.C.H. system:

C-Create your ideal
O-Own your life
A-Activate and take action
C-Centre around your own goals and values
H-Healthy choices

We provide telephone or one-on-one personal coaching services and would love to work with you. Our first session is free of charge and allows us both a chance to explore each other and to see if there is a natural fit for us to work together. We conduct a "Discovery" session to determine where you are at in your current business plan, where you want your business to go and then present to you our recommendations and coaching plan that will help you attain the level of business you desire.

Here is what our coaching clients have said:

"Dear David.

We have just tallied up our final sales results for our Christmas season of 2005 and we exceeded last years' numbers! This, in a fairly poor climate for retail.

We would like to take this opportunity to "Thank You" for your excellent coaching over the past year that resulted in our re-vamping of our corporate image and increasing our customer base by 30%! Even though change is not something most businesses want to do, you took the time to explain all of the advantages patiently and with expert knowledge in the areas that we were weak.

We are looking forward to working with you, our coach, this year and now with our new business cards, website, catalogue & newsletter we are speaking and meeting with new clients based on your scripts and guidance.
Thank you once again."


Thank you for the session yesterday afternoon. It helped me very much and I look forward towards our next meeting.


"Hi David, You were very helpful today and I look forward to our next session."


"I just wanted to drop a line to thank you for the great tips. I was able to implement strategies we discussed after just one meeting and I am already seeing results."


"David was instrumental in helping me build a corporate identity. I had been struggling with this for over a year and it was David who pushed me through to a solution. Thanks to his patience and guidance I am developing a strong brand."


"Thanks David, Great work."
