Speaking as an employee at Advanced Life Photography, one of the many businesses under the guidance of ActionCOACH, I can honestly report a huge increase in job satisfaction for all staff and customer satisfaction for our clients due to work flow practices implemented through Nick Ikonomou.
My employer Clint Dickenson started with Nick last year after toying with the idea of business coaching for quite a while. The biggest hurdle we needed to get past was understanding that we needed to have someone steering the ship, so to speak. Someone working on the business, instead of everyone working in the business. It’s a hard process to comprehend when you are an expert at what you have done for 25 years.
We now have systemized procedures for every aspect of our job so someone else can also do our job as our business grows (up 16% so far). We Clint there to guide us, see the big picture and implement changes that are needed, instead of being so busy doing a job himself that the same flaws get repeated year after year.

ADVANCED LIFE PHOTOGRAPHY
The business coaching programs listed below have helped hundreds of business owners achieve significant results in their businesses.
Our 1-on-1 coaching programs force business owners to focus and devote the time necessary to achieve measurable results.
FreedomCOACH – Total Business Freedom
Our FreedomCOACH business coaching one on one program is for those people who really want to kick their business along and achieve real goals for the year with some additional strategies. Your business is probably already experiencing steady growth. You have some really solid ground-work in place and you and your Team might eventually make it happen anyway. You just know that working with me as your Personal and Business Coach would make a real difference to your lifestyle, the value and the position of your business in the marketplace. (This may be a prelude to your exit strategy!). So, if it’s further sales, marketing, time management, financial management, team building, recruitment, systems, business development and customer service training that you’re after, then, this is the program for you. You’ll be amazed at how much opportunity your business has when you focus on all of those areas to the level that we would train you on.
This program is not for the faint hearted or the non-committed; it is for those business owners who are really willing to make a difference and are not afraid of taking on challenges. With the FreedomCOACH program, your personal and your business goals are combined. You understand that introducing systems and performance standards are the key to achieving what you want from your business in the future. Yes, we work on all areas of your business, but as your Coach, there is more demand to really perform and not let you get away with all those old habits that have been holding you and your business back. You must be committed to change. The FreedomCOACH program is customized to your specific goals and company situation. Typically businesses turning over a minimum of $800,000 per annum right up to $20M are suitable for such a program.
The FreedomCOACH program includes:
* Weekly 1 hour strategy implementation and goals setting (face to face off site/phone/skype) sessions each month.
* Unlimited phone/fax/email support during business hours.

You are probably working far too many hours a week and the business would not be able to survive without your constant input.
