Coaching brings change:

In number of ways…..

Its given me more vision, clarity and focus. 12 months ago I had no idea where I was going or what I wanted to achieve. Now my direction and goals are clear and well within reach.
I have more free time to spend with family, enjoy weekends away and pursue other investment opportunities.
I also have greater control over my life and business. Having a business coach has given me the tools and knowledge to plan, set goals and develop strategies on how to achieve them.
I’ve gained more confidence moving around in different business circles and now I am the one giving other business owners advice on how to improve their business.

Coaching brings improvement:

We have made improvements in a number of areas…..

A) Systems

The business has much better structure which has meant greater productivity by doing more with less. We have an operations manual which means simple procedures have all been documented making staff training much easier and faster

Through Testing and Measuring we have been able to accurately identify areas we need to work on. This has allowed us to make big savings in our marketing budget. No more guessing and ad hoc assumptions, just smart and efficient strategies that bring us good returns on investment every time.

B) Team-work

We all know that we need a good team to help us build our business and now I believe I have one thanks to Zed Morrey. We have regular team meetings, the team has improved their performance in sales and productivity, and I am confident to take time off and know that my team will continue to grow my business.

C) Profitability has DOUBLED!!

The figures speak for themselves. Over the past 12 months we have doubled our profit margin from 8% to 15% and increased sales overall by 8%.

D) Time working in the business has been cut in half

When I started working with Zed Morrey I was working a minimum of 70 hours per week and that’s normal in the retail business.

Now I work 35 to 40 hours per week and it’s dropping every month. Its freed up my weekends (yes, weekends in retail, everyone knows that’s not easy) and the stress levels are way down. It’s fantastic.

Would you recommend Business Coaching to anyone else?

Of course that goes without saying…..Why?

Two Reasons

  1. Clarity regarding my business and its direction. Where the business is going and how it’s going to get there. You need a plan to guide and the strategies to execute that plan.
  2. What do I want from my business and how I am going to achieve it? It sounds almost too simple but I was not always clear about what I wanted. Now I know exactly what I want from my business and it’s clear. The strategies and ideas that came from Zed have helped me to see and achieve my goals and dreams.

From the team at Get Lost Camping we say thank you for all your help, support, encouragement and mentoring. I highly recommend Business Coaching especially Zed Morrey to any owner or manager who is serious about improving their business and reaching their personal goals.
