Business Coaches Go High Tech
Top business consultant uses Internet technology to reach more people.
Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) July 22, 2006 -- Business coaches have traditionally focused on improving and fine-tuning businesses for their clients, but now the coaches are learning how to improve their own businesses, too. And how are they doing it? The same way their clients are: with modern technology.
Coaching has come a long way since it went mainstream in the late 1980s. Unfortunately, however, since coaching is unregulated, it has become something of a modern-day Wild West. Fly-by-night coaches have sprung up for every industry, with so-called “coaches” for everything. There are poker coaches and coaches for white collar criminals going to jail.
Business coaches, on the other hand, are more regulated, but many first-time business coaches struggle to find new clients. However, experienced business coaches like Gary B. Henson -- president of BusinessCoach.com, with over 18 years in the industry -- are hard to come by and naturally are in high demand by executives who want to perform at their best.
Gary structured BusinessCoach.com so he could maximize his own time, giving help to as many clients as possible, as efficiently as possible. Having a full-time administrative staff as well as a physical office gives BusinessCoach.com a competitive advantage.
Small at-home coaching firms are often just one-man shows. When a business is that small, the administrative duties can swallow up much of the coach’s time, giving him less time to actually spend with his clients. This is bad for the clients and bad for the coach. “My clients are industry leaders from around the world” says Chari Darneal, vice president of BusinessCoach.com. “Simply put, we need to use all the available tools, including our online client management console, to maintain and improve our competitive advantage.”
Darneal adds, “Small coaching organizations will not be able to succeed unless they embrace the new technologies. Technology has become so imperative to the business coaching model that we now focus on helping other coaches manage their clients.”
