“It’s an amazing experience to coach with ActionCOACH, they were able to give me a lot of insight into the different aspects of my business where I lacked experience.” – Jeanne Brooks
Getting an ActionCOACH
Jeanne’s partner suggested she look into getting expert advice on how to run her business better, which is what led her to getting involved with ActionCOACH.
They started coaching with ActionCOACH Hein Kruger in 2019. He was instrumental in making some key hires, which allowed Jeanne to focus her attention in the right areas. He was instrumental in helping them navigate very challenging times when Covid hit. Having someone to discuss the best way forward with, was invaluable to them.

Every great performer, whether it is an elite athlete, business legend or performing superstar, is surrounded by coaches and advisors.
As the world of business moves faster and gets more competitive, it’s difficult to keep up with all the changes in your industry – in addition to running your business every day.
Just like great athletes who find success by following the lead of a coach with a winning game plan, more business owners than ever before are turning to Business Coaches to help develop a winning game plan for their businesses.
Why? First of all, it’s very difficult to be truly objective about yourself. A Business Coach can be objective for you, and can see the “forest for the trees.”
A sports coach will make you focus on the game and will make you run more laps than you feel like. A good coach will also tell it like it is and will give you small pointers about the game and your competition. A great coach will listen and guide you to success.
Likewise, a business coach will make you focus on your business and hold you accountable to the things you should do and to where you want your business to be. Your ActionCOACH will also be like your one person Board of Directors. They will help you when it comes to your marketing, your sales, your training and every other area of your business.
Simply put, when you work with an ActionCOACH, they become your partner, your confidant, your mentor and most importantly, your unreasonable and best friend. This is how your ActionCOACH helps you make your dreams come true.
Our “5 Ways” and “6 Steps” are two of the most powerful formulas in the world of business and we put it to use to work with you in all areas to help you multiply your revenues and profit… but that is just one area of our focus. When you work with an ActionCOACH, the emphasis taken will depend on you, your business, and of course, your goals. These key areas are:
- Sales and Finance – You can’t know if you’re winning if you don’t have a full understanding of the scoreboard. This is the backbone for creating profitable business, and one of the areas we’ll help you get spectacular results in.
- Marketing & Advertising – If you want to make a sale, you’ve got to find a prospect first. Over the next 12 months your ActionCOACH will teach you amazingly simple, yet powerful, streetwise marketing techniques and approaches that will drive profits.
- Team Building & Recruitment – You’ll never wish to find the right people again. You’ll have motivated, passionate, enthusiastic, and loyal team members for your business when your ActionCOACH shows you how to put our de-selection process to use.
- Systems & Business Development – End the hopeless cycle of “the business running you” and begin running your business. We will show you the secrets of having your business “work”… even when you’re not there.
- Mastery and Customer Service – Discover how to deliver your product or service consistently, making it easy for your customers to buy and leaving them feeling delighted with your service. Learn new ways to motivate your current customers to give you referrals and to ensure their repeat business.
First, you need to get in touch with your local ActionCOACH as there’s some very simple paperwork to sign and you’re on your way. Next, you’ll need to invest a few hours showing your coach everything about your business. Together you’ll get a plan created – and then the work really starts! Remember, it may seem like a big job at the start but with an ActionCOACH business coach you’re sharing the load. Together, we’ll achieve great things.
