Business Coaching by Nan O'Connor
Better Business Coaching. Better Life.
Business Coaching is a Powerful Tool for Business Owners.
I'm Nan O'Connor—Certified Master Business Coach and I can help you run a better business through my business coaching expertise. I also help you live a more fulfilling life in the process. The key is to consciously grow your business in a way that allows you to live the lifestyle you wish to live, while still having a thriving business. Most people do it the other way around. The business grows—or doesn't—and they are forced to live life around the demands of the business. It doesn't have to be that way for you.
My Mission is to Dramatically Increase the Survival Rate of Privately Held Companies Through Business Coaching
The alarming truth is that the ten-year survival rate of small business is 4%. Astounding! I bet you are smarter than that. And you probably work way too hard to end up going out of business. The problem is that you may know how to provide a product or service, but no one ever taught you how to run a business. That's what I do. When you use me as a business coach, I will teach you how to run your business to achieve the success you deserve.
Does Your Business Give You the Freedom You Originally Sought? Or Has It Become a Bit of a Trap?
You probably started your businesses for one key reason: freedom. Most business owners do. But, an odd dynamic often occurs.
The business that originally provided the freedom you were looking for becomes a trap. It takes more and more time. More and more energy. Ouch! This is the greatest irony of business ownership.
Through a business coaching relationship, I can help you gain the freedom you were looking for in the first place.
It's about making moves that cause the business to serve you, instead of you serving the business to the sacrifice of other things you value.
I Can Help You Put All the Pieces Together so that Your Business Grows in a Way that Works for You.
As a business grows, it can seem like a big, confusing puzzle.
When should I hire people to do what I have been doing? How can I build a sales engine to generate a steady flow of business? Will I have enough money at the end of this month?
I can help you put the pieces together so that they make sense. It's easier from where I'm sitting than from where you are. I'm not so close to it. I have an objective perspective. And I have lots of experience. My ten years of business coaching can be an tremendous advantage to your business.
Why My Business Coaching is so Successful for
Business Owners
I share your DNA. I have that entrepreneurial gene. I have owned and operated four successful businesses over the last 25 years. I know what it means, first hand, to have to meet payroll every week. To sign a personal guarantee on a building lease. To plan how to make the most of limited time and money. To have to fire the salesperson I was counting on to take us to the next level. To convince key clients to work with one of my employees instead of directly with me. To figure out pricing on a new product.
I have been there. And I know what it feels like to be in your shoes. I'm a quick study and I cut to the chase. You will be amazed at how quickly I understand your situation and bring penetrating insights and advice to the table.
I combine years of first-hand business knowledge with ten years of coaching business owners just like you in every conceivable industry. I bring all of that into your business.
I Can Help You Get Better Results than You are Likely to Get on Your Own
Basically, I help you make better guesses. That may be an odd thing to say. But it's true. Because anyone who has owned a business knows that it's anything but an exact science. Running a business is a series of guesses. By using effective business coaching strategies, I help you make better guesses. How? Because I have been there. I've had the successes and I've made the mistakes. And I have learned a lot from both. I'm an objective sounding board whose main focus is your success. Experience. Objectivity. Focus on your success. These things result in better decision-making.

My 100% Satisfaction Guarantee
If
I work with you for a month and you don't receive extreme value from your coaching, I will
give you your money back. No questions asked. I have
offered this guarantee for ten years to every person I have coached. And, in that time, guess how often I have been asked to return
money? Never.
How can I have that kind of track record? I'm very careful who I take on as a client. In fact, I send over 50% of the folks who call to discuss business coaching to other business coaches. Why? Because I am not the best busness coach for everyone. If I'm not, I'll tell you straight out and I'll help you find the best business coach for you. If I am, I'll tell you that as well.
