Testimonial: “Robin challenges me to push further, to expand my thinking beyond what’s in front of me, and to step into the confidence that growth is a process tied to actions, not something measured at the end of the year on a spreadsheet.” Heather (Boltz-Doering) McGlone, Ace Strategies
We put the fun back into business planning – seriously! When you have successfully completed your 1-1 Customized Small Business Blueprint coaching sessions, you will have a business plan and action steps. It might be on sticky notes or index cards, or in a PowerPoint deck, or a map on the wall, or even a 20-page document. We don’t care what format you choose. We care that you build your small business blueprint and create your action steps for success.
Let’s be honest…most business owners do NOT want to complete their business plan! Oh, they agree in theory that it is necessary, but that’s as far as they go. This course helps change that conversation.
Small Business Blueprint Coaching
First, we will conduct a Business Needs Assessment and decide which areas to concentrate on. Topics include:
Feasibility – we explore “will it work” for new businesses and growth directions/possibilities for existing businesses.
Strategic Analysis – we help you create your mission, vision and values statements, and establish your goals and objectives.
Key Success Factors – what sets you apart? Where are you different? What factors can you leverage for your success?
Products and Services – we help you become clear about what you are really selling.
Marketing and Sales – from digital to display, we help you look at what marketing mix (including pricing) will work best for you to establish or increase sales. This is a BIG bucket to explore and master!
Finances – from sales projections to budgeting to financial statements, we cover it all.
Legal aspects – we give you a high-level overview of legal entity selection, intellectual property and other legal aspects; we are *not* attorneys!
Management and Operations – from human resources to logistics to day-to-day operations, we will help you understand how your decisions and management skills impact your company.
The Process to Become a Client
- Email info@startuptogrowth.com to schedule an introductory, no-obligation Zoom call.
- I’ll ask questions about you, your business, where you are now and what you want to achieve.
- We will each be exploring whether we want to work together or not. If we do, awesome. If we don’t, that is fine, too. I am typically able to give you a free tip or two during our call that will help you grow, or launch, you business.
- After our call, if we both decide to work together, you will submit your application.
- Once you have signed your Agreement and made your payment, I will send your Business Needs Assessment and additional on-boarding business coaching forms, and we’ll schedule your first coaching session.
