The 4 keys To Success As A Business Owner
What you should expect to achieve on the programme
1: Ideal client clarity and targeting
Journey through the Ideal Client Discovery process so you are clear and confident that you are focusing on the right client. Here you’ll develop specific criteria so that you can target and find your ideal clients with ease developing messaging that resonates with them.
2: A simple repeatable system
A common-sense approach to create, refine and automate a realistic business model that will allow you to create a consistent flow of clients, speed up your service delivery, eliminate resource wastage, reduce costs and simplify your delivery systems. Work less and make more.
3: ROI-focused fees and positioning
How to take your expertise, package, position and price and present it in a clear structured way so that it aligns with what your ideal clients want to buy. You’ll learn how to communicate value to your ideal clients which will allow you to increase your revenue significantly.
4: Sales channel clarity and targeting
Develop a marketing system that allows you to consistently attract your ideal clients. These sales channels work for you 24/7. You’ll be able to get the attention and interest of your ideal clients and this will develop a consistent flow of leads.
What It’s Costing You To Do Nothing
Every day, week, and month you don’t make significant progress towards your goals is lost opportunity. Literally, money (sometimes a lot of it) sitting on the table.
You have a choice!
1: You can stay doing what you are currently doing and continue to get the same results.
2. You can apply for our Paragon Programme and start reaching your desired income goals.

What was particularly useful was having an outside professional pair of eyes as a business sounding board. Useful, if not vital, for any business owner. Especially if you're a sole owner.

We met at a time in my career where I was in a role that was not only unfulfilling but was having a negative impact on my self esteem and perceived ability to make a move out. Helen's kindness, proactive and practical coaching motivated me to think, not just about my career, but my life and the decisions that I need to consider to move forward. As result of that meeting, and subsequent coaching, I was successful in making my next career move into a role that was right for me.
Fast forward to now, Helen has been the person that I reach out to whenever I need perspective and clarity. She has been so supportive and encouraging, helping me to make the right decisions. When you work with Helen, it's an ongoing relationship and her all encompassing approach helps you to think creatively. read less
