Coaching Will Work For You

You'll uncover your potential and become empowered to achieve your ideal success through a highly tuned process of communication and problem solving resulting in measurable improvements.

 

Coaching is focused, revelatory, empowering, and transformational. You don't see your blind spots and the impact those blind spots have on your effectiveness. Coaching helps identify your blind spots and transform your behaviors as a result.

 

Coaching helps you uncover and discover new ways of approaching obstacles and challenges.  It helps you trigger your thinking in new ways that will make your business explode.  

 

The sooner you take advantage of coaching the sooner you'll get the results you want.

 

I'm sure you've come to realize while there is lots of valuable information to be had in books.  Books by nature are topic specific.  It's up to you to transfer what you read into an actionable and implementable plan for your business.  That's easier said than done.  Plus when you have a question there's no one to ask.  

 

Seminars, workshops, and training can be highly motivational and enjoyable experiences.  Your taught in a class room or lecture setting "how to" overcome a challenge or "how to" do something a certain way.  However, when you try to transfer that knowledge from the training room to the real world you've found it never quite works the way you were shown.  Your prospects and clients didn't read the same play book and they don't seem to know their part.  

 

You've also come to realize that training events are incomplete solutions you buy over and over again.  By their very nature they center on addressing a symptom not the root cause creating the symptom.  Just like when a physician misdiagnosis your illness, when you treat a symptom without getting to it's source you only get more new symptoms on top of the old symptom.  Frustrating...

 

Mentors are wonderful people who generously help others.  You watch what your mentor does and how they do it so you can do it yourself.  Your mentor was your life blood when you first started.  Now though you're ready to surpass your mentor.  And you know your mentor doesn't know how to "show you the way" this time.  

 

Why coaching? Well the evidence is in ...

 

You want to place your faith in a proven process.  Coaching is proven to work across the board.  Scott Blanchard states that coaching is an effective and dynamic process that drives sustainability and enhances your return on investment.  

 

Here are a few facts reported in the Manchurian Review 2001 Volume 6 Number 1 issue:

  • coaching has a lasting impact

  • coaching helps you translate ideas into actions impacting your business in a quantifiable way, maximizing your return

  • those investing in coaching averaged 5.7 times their initial investment

  • 50% of the changes made in the businesses studied were attributed to coaching

  • 93% of the people coached would recommend coaching


Imagine if your experience led you to say...

Cindy Key (Boston) -- "Cheryl is brilliant at closing the sale.  Before working with her, I was semi-successful at closing the sale.  I knew if I learned one tip and improved my closing ratio even slightly my business would grow relieving some of the stress in my life.  What I didn't know was that in just one conversation I would be closing the deal twice as often with ideal clients and I would learn to stop wasting time on "tire-kickers".  Saving that time has freed me to work on important things and propelled my business forward at an amazing rate."

Nancy Proffitt (West Palm Beach) -- "Working with Cheryl Clausen has changed not only the way I do business but also changed the way I look at myself and my business.  Cheryl's coaching and systems (which are innovative and forward-looking) for developing a focused plan in conjunction with marketing and sales techniques have helped me grow my business from an unknown startup to a recognized international player in my field.  Cheryl is motivating and original as well as being an absolute "hoot" with whom to work."

Sean Mize (Denver) -- "Wow!  That was my thought after I began to go through the introductory materials in your coaching program.  You cover highly advanced consultative selling skills in a manner that is simple and easy to understand, and most importantly, easy to implement.  So many other selling materials out there focus on the "head knowledge" but don't give clear directives and instructions on actually making the sales and increasing revenue.  Yours delivers both -- concise theoretical information as a foundation, and strong follow through directives, and that makes all the difference in the world."

These are typical results.  When I began coaching people over 20 years ago I didn't even know it was called "coaching".  I started coaching when I held a corporate position with an international conglomerate.  I just wanted to help others get what they wanted.  That's how I've always approached coaching, and why I do it.

 

As a result of my experiences I've found there are specific critical elements required for success no matter the size of your business.  These facts led me to develop my unique Increase Sales Coaching Model

 

There are 5 critical elements for sustainable business success.  

  1. You must take a holistic approach to your business because it's never just a sales issue

  2. You must develop the clarity to maintain the focus and direction to get things done

  3. You must identify the root cause(s) preventing your forward progress resolving them once and for all

  4. You must develop systems specific to you and your business making success easy

  5. You must develop YOUR OWN BEST WAY to achieve what you want

How can you know if coaching is right for you?  That's the easy part.
