Launching a Successful Coaching Business
Level One: Starting out
Focusing your vision, achieving results
A six-month mentor coaching program
Personal and Business Coaching is a unique and truly rewarding form of business ownership. I mentor new coaches who are motivated "doers," who have a sense of humor, who
enjoy life, and who are committed to being successful coaches. I am an intent listener, and will keep you moving forward and focused on your goals. I concentrate on marketing, promotional materials, personal foundation, coaching skills,
and your personal vision.
