100% said since working with John their profit had increased and 39% had at least DOUBLED it!

“It gives us unruly and often maverick entrepreneurs a structure and personalised framework to help stay on task and think beyond the immediate here and now. As a businessperson I am not constrained by the normal restrictions of the workplace but there is still a need for discipline and order that is challenging to self-administer. My Action Coach helps me set goals, plan and measure the steps towards those targets and creates the windows in a busy schedule for reflection that is essential to personal and business growth. John helps me create the headspace to be able to savour the journey that would otherwise simply pass me by to my great detriment.”    Kevin Wheatley – Ambispace

94% of clients agree that ActionCOACH is worth the investment.

“Since having John on board the business has gone from strength to strength.”   Tina Hewlett – Hewlett & Co

“I’ve gone from working in my business 7 days a week and getting nowhere to a better work life balance, increased revenue and profits. I’ve started to systemise the business to allow it to run without me being there.”   Nic Till – Riverhead Coffee

“We plan for the future better, use cashflow more productively and plan our days better.”   Ann Cozens – IT Services
