Audio - Practice for Retirement

provides tips to help you more easily STRENGTHEN, IMPROVE and/or GROW your BUSINESS.

Please permit us to introduce ourselves and how we serve businesses ... and most especially, the people in them.

As a business success coach, I partner primarily with business owners and department managers who, simply put, WANT MORE!

As a result of my having been the general contractor in building our home in 2004-2005, I started a program wherein I provide training and coaching to business owners in the construction industry so they, too, can enjoy:

TONS more FUN
as they prepare for RETIREMENT ... on their terms
while watching more PROFITS simply flow in!!!

Listen as Lionel & Chantel share with you an example of the type of results you, too can enjoy in just 3 months!

Today I work with business owners in every industry who want the lifestyle they dreamed of when they started their businesses; business owners who realize they will get these results only by either

- regaining control of their fast-growing businesses, or
- propelling the growth of their businesses.

All of this is so do-able. Here's what another client says:

More PROFITS, TONS more FUN and RETIREMENT ... on your terms!

After participating in Trade-Contractors' Business Strategies training & coaching program with Lynne Jacob, I have learned to take business improvement ideas and implement them into reality. I have learned the importance of staying focused on goals and to hold fast when problems arise. I have re-assessed our staffing policies and made some necessary changes to reflect ideas learned from Lynne. These changes have, so far, sustained us through the current economic situation. Even with many manufacturing jobs "on hold" we have not had to do any down-sizing and have just landed our biggest job to date

Sylvio & Josée are delighted with the level of confidence they now feel, as they watch precisely what they listed in their 90-days goals appear ... piece-by-piece. This new-found confidence has put a spring in Sylvio's step and even his neighbour's find he's not running so much anymore. Sylvio's so much calmer these days he finds it's he who's calming Josée when something hits the fan. In just a few days, one small tweak in the way they do things around there resulted in saving more than DOUBLE their investment in themselves through the 7 Simple Strategies 4 Success. Just think of the net ROI over the next several years and numerous houses!

A friend doesn't quite get it

I recently heard from a friend, who's an employee receiving our newsletters, that he doesn't fully comprehend how I help business owners and their businesses. And do I help employees, too? That was clearly a message to me. If one person doesn't quite get it, there are others in the same boat.

In a nutshell, I help people:

struggling ... with cash flow, support teams, customer issues, too little profit;

sacrificing ... their lives, their families, their FUN ... for this thing called "a business" which now feels more like a job;

settling ... for "good enough."

How?
  • By helping you get really clear on the life you'd prefer to be living through your business;
  • By helping you get back in touch with why you ever got into business in the first place - rekindle your passion, relight the fire in your belly;
  • By helping you get the FUN back into your business;
  • By helping you live the lifestyle you dreamt of when you first dreamed of starting your business, or taking over the helm of the family business.


How?
  • By helping you stay focused on your goals, despite the detours & road-blocks;
  • By helping you say "yes" ... with increased confidence ... to opportunities that knock on your door;
  • By helping you feel the thrill of uncertainty - rather than the fear of the unknown.


How?


SOAR with Your BUSINESS you need a championship support team, supporting you along the way. (Contact Lynne Lynne@mljcoaching.com directly and learn about the newly launched Team Development Coaching Program.)

The Business Envelope is what I help you stay focused on, first filling the holes and parging the cracks of the foundation to ensure great support as you fill the rooms and add more floors; i.e. strengthen/improve/grow your business.

I don't get frustrated, now, knowing where ownership lies; knowing what is my responsibility and what isn't. From working through this workbook I know how to build the necessary alliances to accomplish our objectives. This said, it's still a work in progress and I have already re-worked the workbook on numerous occasions.

Do I only help business owners?
Our testimonials and Life Coaching page shows that for the few "employees" who see the value of investing in themselves, they, too, enjoy HUGE results! Like not only 4 pay increases in the 1st 3 months of her "dream job" but in an even newer position $18,000 in 18 months! Now how's that for an ROI?

What are your heart's desires?

How can I help you make the decision ... to turn your heart's desires into reality?

You have to do it ... but you can't do it alone.

There's Nothing New Out There

There's Nothing New Out There

It's comical, as I read the archived newsletter, from 2 years ago, that I wanted to share with you. http://www.mljcoaching.com/mlji/news_June_08.htm

Just more proof that there's nothing new out there in business ... as Rick frequently reminded me was what I had said that helped him invest in turning their ship around.

I was feeling like I was losing control of my company. When I heard of Lynne's program, it was actually the tools she provides that helped me decide to invest in the Trade-Contractors' Business Strategies Training

.

I now find it is easier to set goals and to stick to them to accomplish the goals I set.

If you are finding it difficult to decide to make the financial investment, my advice is, simply: "Don't wait! Get the right tools to get what you want out of life and out of your company."

It's the consistency that I like most about the T-C BS Training

and the way Lynne runs her program.

In the archived newsletter,

http://www.mljcoaching.com/mlji/news_June_08.htm

, I'm explaining precisely what I've been explaining to several clients of late ... and the cutest thing is that this is precisely what I'm doing myself these days.

In 2 different provinces and 3 different states in the U.S, I just finished a very busy 3 1/2 weeks. Coming home from a MasterMind meeting with one of my mentors and the others in the group, I have to, yet again, become really clear on where I'm spending my time and on which activities.


3 Unique Abilities

What are yours? Those 3 things that not only are you the best person to do them but each of these 3 things really charge you, fill you with excitement and a lot more energy. These 3 Unique Abilities increase the FUN FACTOR in your business ... and in you, too.

As an example, my 3 Unique Abilities are:

1) coaching and training -- when I'm on the tools, so-to-speak;

2) helping people like you make an informed buying decision;

3) writing ... magazine articles & newsletters, like this one, for example.

Get really clear on your 3 Unique Abilities and just hand everything that doesn't fit into those categories to others.

Just this Monday, Dave shared with me how he has found that over the past 7 weeks that we've been working together he has been delegating a lot more ... and he finds that his employees are

- behaving more responsibly; and,

- showing up for work! Taking much less time off.

Can you imagine? Just because his boss finally gives him responsibility the employee gets more enthusiastic and more plugged in to his job!

Simple as that!

What are your 3 Unique Abilities? Getting clear on these is half the battle. The rest is simply delegating everything else ... or letting it go completely.

Lionel shared with others in 7 Simple Strategies 4 Success

this week how he found it very difficult to believe that

  1. he could find the right person and afford to hire out these tasks; and
  2. he'd be able to delegate enough of what he spent his time on to make hiring a sound investment.

You see, there was another client in the tele-seminar having challenges seeing how he could let go of mundane tasks that can be done by others. You know: Those tasks you hang onto for yourself because it's an "overhead" charge. You can't bill the time to a customer.

Want your employees' behaviour to improve and to get the fun back into your daily routine? Let's have a 20-minute chat and see if any of my programs, that

  1. help others turn their ships around inside of 4 months,
  2. cause improvement in employees' behaviour inside of 7 weeks,
  3. earn your investment back twice-over inside of 6 days, and
  4. quadruple your annual sales and give you a solid profit margin inside of 2 years,

are right for you, so that you, too, can enjoy these results. Give me a call, on my direct line at 613-353-9941, or pop me a line at Lynne@mljcoaching.com.

You, too, can be enjoying these results!

And more importantly,

You deserve these ... and better ... results!
