Business Coach which means?
Action International is the world's biggest coaching organisation thats helped over 10,000 small-to-medium sized business owners to achieve their goals and ambitions. On average we increase a clients profit by over 50% on a twelve month program. Time, team and profits are the three biggest problem areas that business owners talk to me about on a regular basis. How do you rate your business on a scale of 1-10 in these areas? Anything below 10 call now!
Why use a Business Coach?
Every great performer, whether an elite athlete or a business legend, is surrounded by coaches and advisors. As the world moves faster and gets more competitive, having a business coach can help owners and executives to change and develop, reach their optimum performance and of course make more money!
Why Emerson?
I've had 15 years diverse experience in the corporate world, and a career in electronic engineering, marketing and sales. For 6 years prior to joining Action, I worked at a large IT and Telecoms Company in Milton Keynes where I was a Senior Sales Executive, achieving No 1 Sales Person at National Division level. I was then head hunted to join Action's Central Midlands team.
What do you do in your free time?
I have a passion for travel and I'm an avid ski and snowboarder!

As the owner or proprietor of a small
business it is all too easy to lose focus and enthusiasm, especially when faced with some of the problems and challenges that arise on a daily basis such as how to delegate and recruit, how to work less hours and how to make more money!
The reason for this is that business owners often have no-one to turn to for advice or guidance, other than perhaps their accountant or bank manager.
So, to help keep the business owners motivated and inspired, the world’s biggest coaching organisation, Action International, is launching a national network of local networking clubs. Indeed, the first ‘Action Profit Clubs’ for businesses in the Northampton & Milton Keynes area were launched in November 2005 and in the South
Northamptonshire area in January 2006 and they have over 32 members already! With your help we can put Olney and Newport Pagnell Business on the Profit Club Map.
In addition to providing a perfect opportunity to discuss issues and network with other local business owners in the area, ‘Action Profit Clubs’ actually go one stage further and include a 10 minute ‘business building’ tutorial from an Action International Business Coach.
In the same way that sporting coaches give a ‘pep talk’ to push athletes to reach their optimum performance, this tutorial is designed to feed business owners with fresh ideas and motivate them to perform to their true potential.
There will also be two hour monthly education workshops based around
topical business issues and business owners will be able to discuss ideas, find solutions to day-to-day business problems and even make strategic alliances with other local businesses.
To book your place at the OLNEY LAUNCH Meeting, Northampton or Milton Keynes Profit Club meetings, call today on 0845 686 2121 and ask for Emerson Patton.

Or if you would like a business review carried out on your business completely free of charge, just to make sure you are not missing out on any hidden profits or time savers or to improve any team issues then call now on 0845 6862121 (ref BR-OCT).
