Coaching Success Story – New Business Owner Travis Jackson

How It All Started

I met Nadine Jackson when she was looking for a new position and new opportunities. She also wanted to build equity outside of a traditional job and was interested in creating multiple streams of income. After a couple coaching sessions, her husband Travis joined our sessions.

The Journey of Discovery

We worked together to explore their strengths and abilities and hone in on what makes them successful. Then we worked to gain clarity on their short and long term goals, specifically related to their income, lifestyle, wealth and equity. Nadine and Travis are clear about their goals and have been working towards them. They have wanted to start a business for 20 years and have been talking about it and preparing. They just didn’t have the confidence to take the next steps.

Once their vision was laser focused, we explored options and possibilities to help them achieve their goals. They wanted to create generational wealth and build a legacy for their family. They also wanted to secure their retirement so they could travel, do more volunteering and giving back to their community.

Exploring Franchise Businesses

We reviewed their goals, their vision statement, and talked about it. What would it feel like – their family is important and their piece of mind. They want to travel and not worry about money. They want to be comfortable and happy. They are building a future for their two daughters. They want to serve as an example of hard work and success and put them in a position to be even more successful.

They kept an open mind and explored 3 different franchise business models. City Publications offered everything they were looking for and it completely aligned with their goals. They want to nurture and grow the business. They are prepared to work hard at it. They had reached a point of clarity about the best path forward for them.

How Coaching Helped

They were both so thankful for the opportunity to work with me and said I gave them the confidence to explore possibilities with an open mind and move forward, by asking the right questions.

They wrote this recommendation about their experience:

“Amy came into our lives when we were at a crossroad in our careers. It was as if divine Intervention sent her to us. Amy reached out and offered to guide us through coaching to finding our true desires and reaching clarity. That is exactly what happened. She listened, asked the right questions, some difficult ones at times which challenged us to thoroughly think through and evaluate what was important to us in an entrepreneurial venture. She provided us with a series of self-assessments that allowed us to become more self-aware of our true potential to becoming successful business owners.

Amy presented us with some great business ventures that we would have never considered. Based on our aspirations and the strengths that were uncovered in the self-assessments, Amy was able to align us with opportunities that meshed well with our vision. She was very encouraging and supportive throughout the whole process. She aligned us with knowledgeable professionals who guided us along our path. She shared her personal experiences which gave us the level of comfort we needed to embark on something that was very foreign to us.

We reached our point of clarity with Amy’s help and have made what we believe is one of the best decisions of our lives career-wise. We are very thankful to Amy for all her guidance and support and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to take control of their own success. Amy started out as a coach but now she is a friend.”
