Why Everyone Needs a Business Coach

Two persons working from a notepad with two computers, a computer mouse and work tools on the table.
In any human venture requiring growth and development, everyone needs a coach. In business, investing in a business coach automatically means investing in yourself and your business. A business coach is a pillar of support and mentorship for everyone even if you are just struggling to get the business off the ground or you already have some considerable experience in growing the business. Coaches mostly play the role of objective third parties and even business partners who can help speed up your business process by routinely identifying areas the business needs improvement and offering guidance in areas where the business is weak. It may require some expense to get a good business coach but many professionals who hire coaches like to testify that doing so is an extremely worthwhile investment. So, no matter what business you are in, are you considering hiring a business coach or you already have one? Professionally, a Business Coach:

Helps to Confront and Address Your Shortcomings:

Your business may be yours to do what you like with but only a business coach has the gumption and the authority to tell you hey man, doing it this way can give you better results. Your team members and colleagues may not always feel comfortable doing so for obvious reasons. A good coach won't just tell you what you want to hear. He tells you boldly what is good for you and your business not what is sweet in your ears. He considers it his duty to actively push you to question yourself and confront your shortcomings in a positive manner.



Helps you to Learn from an Unbiased and Experienced Viewpoint:

No matter what business you are in, you’ll always need a third party opinion for an unbiased overview of your performance. That’s where the business coach comes in. No matter how successful you believe you are in your business, there's always room for improvement. The exact reason you will always need an objective and authoritative source of feedback which a good coach provides.

Helps You to Have New Networking Opportunities:

Most business coaches in line with their professional duties are always very experienced and well-connected persons. Thus, they are always able to help people they are coaching to expand their professional networks, which is very valuable for business. Of course, every business person knows the enormous value of a network which a coach easily makes available as an integral part of the coaching package.

Helps to Align your Business and Personal Goals:

The first major challenge of a good business coach is to intimately understand you and your business. That done, it becomes fairly easy for him to provide you a true outside perspective to help you align your business objectives with your personal ones to avoid conflicts. When your business goals conflict with your personal goals, it is difficult if not impossible to make meaningful progress therefrom. That is where Coaches help you to pull the brakes where needed and to stay hyper-focused in the real areas of need.

Helps you to be Accountable for facing your Fears:

Every good business Coach always likes to hold the person he is coaching accountable. That is why they always challenge their clients to step out of their comfort zone and to take the requisite risks in their business. That is what gets the needed results as needed.

Helps You to Find Clarity:

Any good business coach always helps his clients to find clarity, to break through business barriers and to generally change for the better. Most business experts do recommend that anytime you hit a rut in your business, and it becomes difficult for you to know where to turn or what to do next, just talk to a coach. Hitting a rut in your business is at times more common than what many business owners like to admit. The coach helps to get clarity at such points.

Helps You to Gain a Break in your Routine:

Good business coaches always help their clients not to get stuck in the rut. They are available to help find new and practical ways to continue to grow a business. Granted that procedures and routines are quite important for business consistency, experience has shown that after a while, most businesses run the risk of becoming stagnant. A stagnant business by all definitions means a business that is not making progress by its inability to grow. That is undesirable and most good coaches know this and they do help to find a way to engender growth.

Helps You to Hear Constructive Criticism:

It is the business of a coach not just to sing the praises of his client but to criticize and correct as needed. Employees and associates may be uncomfortable to criticize openly but a good coach can do so and be tolerated more if it is in the overall interest of the business. Most business coaches habitually make it their business to provide constructive criticism on the areas of any business they feel needs some improvement. That is what gets the results the business owner really needs.

10 Simple Ways to Earn Cool Money Online

4 Bundles of Dollar notes stacked up.
The Internet has become some form of goldmine within which anyone willing to do honest work can earn a comfortable living. When I started out in year 2012, I was just playing around until I soon discovered how to turn play time into income-earning time. It took me quite some time to master the ropes a bit though.  From my experience, anyone can make money online even if they know next to nothing about online marketing, social media, or even SEO. You can quickly learn the ropes like I did if you are smart enough. I can now comfortably recommend at least 10 ways I have used and others are using to make legitimate cool money online. Here they are but not necessarily listed in any particular order of importance.

#1: Affiliate Marketing

This is readily the most popular and most common way to earn money legitimately online.  Most websites selling products and services rely heavily on affiliates to help push their products/services on the web. When a product/service gets sold on account of the marketing efforts of an affiliate, the affiliate gets a pre-agreed percentage of the sale as commission. The more products you are able to help sell, the more money you make. Presently, SFI prides itself as the #1 Affiliate Marketing Business online. That is for good reasons because they practically lead every affiliate by the hand to make money. With SFI, you can earn anything from #5,000 to $100,000 per year at full blast on a deep downline you must have built over some time.

#2: Google Adsense

This is one great way to earn money from your website or blog. By the time you get a good blog going, the next thing is to monetize it. This you do by applying to Google for a Google Adsense code. This is the code Google gives out to marketers at its own very strict discretion. Once you insert the code on your website/blog, you are good to go. Google kicks in at this stage and does the rest under its own very strict rules and regulations. You get paid any time someone clicks on the ads Google displays via that code on your site and/or makes a purchase. That way, you can earn a monthly paycheck of $100-$5000 depending on how popular your blog is as judged by the traffic it gets on daily basis.



 

#3: Selling Stuff Online
 
This is fairly simple and straight forward i suppose. From my experience, most people do sell stuff easily online. The more stuff you sell, the more money you make. Ever heard of garage sales? This is one way to sell off old stuff you have been accumulating in your garage over the years. It will amaze you the good number of people looking for old stuff to buy online. If you run a physical shop, you can advertise to your followers on social media particularly YouTube, facebook, twitter and Instagram and you get orders as a result. You may choose to advertise on free sites like craigslist.org to get buyers. One very dependable way to make money online is to sell stuff in a great way using the internet to earn cool money! You can make up to $1500 per month selling stuff, any stuff online.

#4: Digital Products

 
You’ve got to be good at creating digital products to earn money here. There are all kinds of digital products out there online created by others even if you are unable to create them yourself. All you need do is to get a resale permit or resell license from the original owners of the digital products and you are in business. Many people are online daily looking for information. If you have well-packaged eBooks or how-to videos on any popular topics or business niches in high demand, you can sell them online to make money. Making up to $1000 per month selling digital products is common amongst marketers.

#5: Brand Sponsorships

Most brands who really want to sell well and get a good market share are often willing to pay for some sort of sponsorship package that includes written content, videos, social shares, and more. Many brands do pay for saying something good about their brands online.  If you are very popular on social media, particularly on facebook, twitter, pinterest and others, and if you have a very huge followership and audience, you can make cool money from brand sponsorship. Brand owners are ever willing to pay for the sponsorship of their brands, if your social media background is hugely impressive. Some $500-$5000 can be made monthly if you get to know the ropes about brand sponsorship.

#6: Display Ads

With display ads on your website/blog, you get to make money when the ads are viewed online. Somehow, display ads are an extension of Google Adsense where the reader doesn’t just have to click on the ad for you to make money. You get paid in two ways. These are Pay Per View, PPV and Pay Per Click, PPC, both recognized and valued by Google Adsense code. Display ads play the same role on your website/blog just as billboard ads on roadsides or highways. With display ads, you get paid based on the number of times your displayed ads are viewed no matter what. For that reason, these ads work better and earn good money for you if your website/blog traffic is really high. Popular blogs earn as much as $5000 monthly from display ads alone.

#7: Sponsored Posts

Many companies pay people to write about and promote their products/services in form of sponsored posts. It is sort of similar to sponsored brands, the only difference being that the posts are not directly about brands but about specific products/services. With a sponsored post, a company pays you to talk about their product or service on their website if you have the clout and authority to command belief. If you are a known and respected authority in any field related to the product or service, you can make $2000-$5000 per month from sponsored posts alone.



 

#8: YouTube Ads

YouTube currently enjoys a special niche online as a video exchange site. It is extremely popular for that. You can easily set up your own onsite account and start posting your own videos. Good money is made from ads in onsite accounts which have a large followership and popularity. The more the ads are viewed, the more money you make. Google Adsense code helps out also in this process. YouTube ads are fairly easy to set up because all you have to do is turn on ads every time you publish a video. Most marketers earn more money with this strategy as they build and enlarge their viewership. Some earn up to $5000 per month from just turning on YouTube ads embedded with Google Adsense codes.

#9: Freelance Writing

This requires some proven and tested expertise and there is no running away from it. Without knowing what to write and how to write it to impress others, you can’t be a good freelance writer. Many freelance writers earn some $100-$1000 per article depending on the niche and the writer’s authority. Freelance writing enables you to gain exposure and authority as you write along. That helps to increase the demand for your services and ultimately improved and enhanced earnings as a result.

#10: Consultancy/Coaching

Consultancy/Coaching is the niche of authoritative experts online. You can package and sell full courses inclusive of certification online. Through webinars, you can directly offer real time lectures worldwide and earn good money for your efforts. You can coach online for business strategies, health and wellness, hunting, hiking, swimming, body building and any topic of your choice where you have undisputed know-how and expertise. How much you earn depends on the type of niche you are involved in. Some high flying Executive Coaches/Consultants make around $200-$350 per hour coaching or consulting for sundry businesses.

Last Line!

Not everyone may find all these methods suitable for them to earn money online because our individual competences and backgrounds vary very diversely. That’s OK! Just find and settle for any you believe you can make money with and not necessarily all of them. If you do that, you are good to go and you too will start making clean and legitimate money online with your own efforts. Get started right now if you are not already on. A delay means loss of money which you can least afford.
