Do You Need An ActionCOACH?

"In 6 months, our turnover had increased by 33%. Working with John has completely transformed our business.

Whilst he has enabled us to analyse and take steps to really drive the business, the impact has not just been on the business. We now have time to step back and evaluate our personal goals too.

Take the plunge – it is the best thing that has happened to us and we’d recommend it to anyone!"

Luke Drewery & Pete Hewes, Owners, Know Media

"Working with ActionCOACH has turned me from being ‘someone who owns a coffee shop’ into an ‘Award winning business owner’.
John helped me to see that through implementing systems and procedures and getting the right team behind me, I can confidently work on my business instead of in it."

Nic Till, Owner, Riverhead Coffee

"Before working with John, my business lacked direction and goals. With John’s advice and support, we have smashed our targets and now have aspirational goals in place.
We have a future and financial security now!"

Simon Jeffrey, MD, Techie Monkey Computer Recycling Ltd

"My first workshop with John inspired me to think bigger, and think about what could be. Talking through my business progress with John made me realise I was doing better than I thought, giving me the confidence to apply for the Hull & Humber Chamber of Commerce New Business Award 2019, of which I was thrilled to be a finalist. I am now taking part in the 90 day planning workshops which have been helping me develop as a business and plan the future growth of Hats & Tiaras."

Isabel Wallis, Business Owner, Hats & Tiaras

"The importance of setting goals
Thank you so much for your support with planning. I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it incredibly useful. Getting a few goals down in that level of detail feels really empowering and a lot more real now! I will definitely be recommending this session to my members."

Nicky Thomas, MD, The Growth Community

"Working with John and ActionCOACH has been a great learning experience, helping to improve our business systems, strategy and management. John always knows the right questions to ask in order to help you get the best out of yourself. He's got a great way of looking at problems and working with you to help you find the right solution. He pushes you to think bigger and further than you might otherwise do alone."

Liam O'Leary, MD, Laser Red

"I've attended both the face to face and on-line 90 day planning sessions and both have their advantages. At the recent on-line session we had a small group and were able to bounce ideas off each other. It made me think about my business and how I can grow it rather than just surviving through this difficult time. It changed my way of thinking and my biggest learning was about the 5 ways numbers and what a difference an increase of just 10% can make to a business."

Pippa Mell, Owner, Diamond Office Support

"We have now been working with John McHale and his team from Action Coach exactly 2 years to the day, and what a difference it has made. From thinking why on earth would we need a business coach, to why on earth didn’t we have a business coach. The change in our business is outstanding and the connections we have gained through Action Coach are just amazing. We most certainly would not be at a point where we are now if it were not for the team. We thank John, Nicola and everyone else in the background for their guidance, tuition and more importantly their friendship, for without this business can be a lonely place".

Nichola & Jason Threadgold, Owner, Jason Threadgold Funeral Directors

"Since working with John, we are finding business so much more fun.
All staff now have measurable goals with specified timeframes, giving them a clear sense of
direction. John has a positive impact on the business, whilst also keeping us accountable in
terms of spending more time ‘on’ the business than ‘in’ the business.
If you’re looking to take your business to the next level, we would highly recommend working
with John. The results speak for themselves".

Jason Barker, MD, Cars of Grimsby

We have worked with John for 6 months and we can honestly say, we wish we’d found him years ago.

Our business is at the beginning of its third year, having just had the most successful quarter so far. It is no exaggeration to say that we would not have achieved these results if we were not working with John.

From the outset John took the time to get to know our business. He challenges us and holds us accountable, all whilst providing unwavering support. John does not provide one size fits all coaching. He is committed to truly bespoke advice which means that the businesses he works with quickly excel in their industry sectors.

On a personal level, John has supported our directors during one of the biggest challenges that they have faced both professionally and personally. He has done so with compassion, understanding and empathy. Nothing is too much trouble for John. He will always find the time to work through our challenges and celebrate our successes.

John’s approach goes far beyond a business arrangement. John is a trusted advisor and a member of our team that we just couldn’t do without. The thing that really stands John apart from other coaches is that he really cares for the businesses that he works with. His humility means that people quickly feel at ease in John’s company. Few people have the ability to work with professionalism whilst maintaining a modest and approachable nature. John is one of those people and we would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in our professional network and beyond.

We have been working with John now for nearly 2 years now and the difference in the business is massive! Not only have the financials improved, but our focus, drive, knowledge and enthusiasm has grown too, allowing for us to set and work towards clear goals and a bigger mission! We have doubled our work force whilst working with John and have recently won an award at BizX too, we can’t wait to see what the next 2 years have in store for us!
