The Growth Coach Looking to Expand into South Africa
Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) April 08, 2014 -- The Growth Coach, a leading international business and sales coaching franchise, is looking to expand into South Africa and to grow alongside the area’s middle class.
The Growth Coach is the world’s leader in group coaching workshops and the only franchise dedicated to helping business leaders find both success in business and balance in life. Growth Coaches around the world serve small business owners, management professionals, sales teams and the self-employed, among others. The Growth Coach was recognized by Entrepreneur Magazine as the #1 ranked business and sales coaching franchise in 2013.
“The Strategic Mindset coaching process and services of The Growth Coach are applicable in any country and with any business culture. We know business leaders, management teams, and sales professionals around the world can benefit dramatically from what The Growth Coach has to offer. Small business owners are our heroes no matter where they live or work and we are passionately committed and uniquely qualified to solve their issues and challenges,” Growth Coach President Nathan Owens said.
“We’re focusing on South Africa because they are going through a business resurgence and the middle class is stabilizing very well. This is a great place for us to expand into both through our business development division and the philanthropic arm we’re working to build. Our long-term strategy is to work to have those two elements of The Growth Coach – franchising and philanthropy – work in tandem to improve the community overall,” Owens added.
The Growth Coach was founded in 2003, but the company’s leaders have a 20 year track record of successful business coaching. Recently, the franchise was included in the Bond’s Top 100 Franchises and has been recognized in Entrepreneur Magazine’s “Franchise 500,” “Best of the Best” and “Top Home-Based Business” listings. While most of the coaching is delivered through affordable group workshops, owners also provide one-to-one coaching, remote coaching delivered via phone and web, and special projects.
Growth Coaches in the United States also can help CPAs and human resources professionals to earn their continuing education requirements with National Association of State Boards of Accountancy, Society for Human Resource Professionals and HRCI certified workshops.
In addition to the proven services The Growth Coach currently offers, the company also is in the process of rolling out online coaching, alternative financing for businesses, business valuation software and services, an updated brand image and logo and more.
“To achieve our service mission of significantly transforming lives and businesses around the world one community at a time, we need passionate franchise owners who want to join our cause, which is why we are actively recruiting in South Africa. These new franchise owners will be enriched by enriching the lives of others. While these franchise candidates should have some experience in business, they do not need to have coaching or business-ownership experience. We teach them everything they need to know to be successful at marketing and delivering proven coaching solutions,” Owens said.
Outside of South Africa, The Growth Coach has invested significant effort into international expansion and is already working with Master Franchise owners in Ecuador, Mexico, Canada, Australia, India and more. The corporate team is also working to build relationships in Peru, Chile, Paraguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Turkey, Cypress, the United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Spain and Germany.
“The Growth Coach is in more than 140 markets right now and we’re looking for significant international expansion over the next four years. Our proven and guaranteed coaching solutions have been making a difference in the lives of business people in the United States for more than 20 years and now it’s time for us to bring our coaching systems to other countries,” said Daniel Murphy, founder and CEO of The Growth Coach.
Owens added, “Entrepreneurs and small business owners are expanding rapidly around the globe and they need business and sales coaching to reach optimal success. Our expansion plans are essential to fulfilling our mission of significantly transforming lives and businesses around the world one community at a time."
