Mike has helped guide through some difficult decisions. Having a coach that actually understands business and that isn’t some fake guru is amazing info.

Mike has helped guide through some difficult decisions. Having a coach that actually understands business and that isn’t some fake guru is amazing info. I’ve used a few local coaches before and got really frustrated when all they talked about was basic business 101 concepts. Mike is a high level thinker. He also teaches he’s a Common sense approach when needed. Sometimes high level isn’t needed. Sometimes common sense is all you need. My favorite quote from Mike is “Your business doesn’t care about your feelings”.
Thanks, Joe. It's been great watching you work through your business processes and make good decisions! And, it's true, the business doesn't care about our feelings!!
Mike, I just wanted to send a quick note and let you know I was able to get the big client with the high-profile architect that you coached me on. Definitely took more work than a normal sale but I followed your advice throughout the process and made sure to be myself and genuine. Even though Kory is my main coach, one of the values I get from your company is I have access to all your coaches when we have questions. I would highly recommend Action Coach to anyone who wants to improve their business with professional coaching and join a great network of coaches and clients. The team at Action Coach always provides great information and challenges me to improve the business in many different ways whether it is learning the finances of business, helping increase sales, training the future leaders of our company, or just being a good sounding board when needed. Thanks for all your help through the years.

Hi Ryan, we are excited to continue to help guide you and your business to grow it where you want it to be!
At first, I was highly skeptical of someone who knows nothing about my industry..thinking they could help. But I sucked it up and gave it a try. End of this month's numbers show my company having doubled in size from when I started with the ActionCOACH of Wisconsin team. I have learned a few tricks from my Coach Jackie - making me a much better owner, manager and employee of my company. I communicate better with my team, and have found that she has a resource for every "challenge" I bring up. You want ROI? My gross has increased 139 times what I have spent...that translates to millions in additional revenue since I became part of the ActionCOACH family. If you are willing to work, listen, learn, take coaching and make changes (hell no it isn't easy) it is such a good decision. Or, let your competition sign up, get the advantage, and you can kick back and watch them enjoy the success...
Thank you for the honest and detailed review Joe! Coach Jackie and the AC WI Team look forward continuing to help you grow your business and team. Perturbation/change can be tough to work through, but we're glad you stuck by it and got to reap the rewards of your continuous effort!
