I wanted to thank all those WNY business owners that responded to my survey in December.
As promised, I want to share with you what the Top 3 Pains and Fears this group of individuals were dealing with in their day to day business life.
Remember, a pain is something that is a problem in your day to day life, something that can be addressed with commitment and attention.
On the other hand a Fear is something that is in the future, may or may not happen, and the more you worry about it the bigger it gets.
Well, as they say on Family Feud, "and the survey says":
The Top Pains mentioned:
- Don't have enough time to do it all
- Can't seem to follow through on ideas
- Getting maximum productivity from my team
- Cash flow
The Top Fears mentioned:
- Economy will remain slow
- My marketing is not working
- Another recession
- Increased regulation and red tape

If you share any of these pains and you want to do something to address them, I have developed free tips and guides that will provide the best "how to", gathered from the best in the business and proven to work with my clients.

Remember the "how to" is the easy part. It is the "want to", the commitment to change that has to come from you.
It helps to have some help.
Reaching out to a coach or mentor shows strength. Maybe you have tried it all and are at a point where you realize everyone needs help. Owning a business is a lonely career at times with no one to be really accountable to but yourself.
Just like getting in shape, for 90% of us, it takes a personal trainer, someone who has the techniques, the plan, who pushes when you want to slack off, and, because you have an appointment at a set time, provides the accountability we all need.
Call me anytime. I will be happy to provide you a complimentary meeting and evaluate your situation and answer any questions you have about coaching.
