Some reasons why you need a business coach:
- You want to increase your sales and ultimately your profit while lowering your costs. How to remain lean while labour costs are on the rise.
- You’re worried about the impact Brexit will have on your business and the sterling exchange rate.
- You see a gap in your team skills. You want to develop your team of people so they are motivated, passionate and high achievers that lead your business, whether you are there or not. You are a leader whose wants to successfully communicate your vision, influence, motivate and direct your staff, increase staff productivity and performance.
- You have struggled over the last number of years due to the recession and your supply chain agreements aren’t so flexible affecting your growth. You have lost purchasing power and, as a result, customers. You have cash flow problems and debt. You need to revisit your vision and growth. You lack innovation.
- Globalisation – You need to develop and bring your business in line with the ever changing global digital market. You may need to diversity.
- E-Commerce – It is no longer good enough to have a shop window, you need to be Omni present. Not only do you need to bring your business online and trade, you need an active social media profile, that engages with your customers.
- You strive to create a work/life balance but you don’t know how you can. “Nobody does it as good as you” or “Nobody has your drive or passion”. As a result your relationships and health are struggling.
- You know you need to keep up to date with legalistive and regulatory changes and commitments but just feel lost around all these obligations.
- New Millennials – You don’t understand them. They don’t believe in a job for life. You are encountering difficulties in attracting the right talent. What do you need to do to once you have attracted them into your work force to keep them? How do ensure you have succession planning in place.
- You need to be held accountable. You get to take the necessary time out of your business to soundboard your ideas, talk about issues you face on a daily basis and about problems that can be turned into opportunities. It is an ideal environment to talk through your ideas. Sometimes you can’t see the woods from the trees when you are knee deep in your business.
- You are new to a leadership role or possibly trying to adapt to a role adjustment. Maybe you have out-grown the company you work for and feel there is no room to progress, yet you have more to offer.
Orla is an inspirational business mentor and coach. I worked with Orla on a large scale project for my online business and through Orla’s mentoring I was capable of achieving my business goals. Orla has in depth knowledge and a real understanding for the retail sector and no question or road bump that I stumbled upon along the way was a problem – Orla only provides you with solutions and the empowerment of believing you can achieve what you set out to. In addition to all of this, Orla will inspire you with her outlook and attitude towards business and life. Thank you again Orla, for all of your support, help and encouragement along the way.
Orla was a fantastic support to me! When we first met I had only a vision of my possible business but Orla gave me the necessary tools to begin making that vision a reality. She supported me along every step of the way; from applying for funding/loans, creating my business plan, marketing and advertising advice. Orla also put me in contact with the Local Enterprise Office and encouraged me to take part in starting your own business courses. Orla was always on the end of the phone or email when I had questions and was constructive and supportive in her response. She helped me establish goals and set realistic targets to successfully meet them. I highly commend Orla and would definitely recommend her to anyone who is starting up their own business.
Orla is a positive, passionate, driven leader with an excellent commercial mind. During my time working with Orla, she was a dedicated professional. Orla’s ability to get the most from the team in a fast-paced retail environment where decisions need to be made quickly was exemplary. A pleasure to work with, supportive of all her team and peers, a completer finisher who leads by example.
