My 30 min consultation with Katherine was really helpful! I learned formatting tips and ways to beef up my resume by adding a header, summary, and core competencies and creating sectional dividers. She recommended outcome-based bullet points that highlight the benefits and quantify the results rather than a laundry list of tasks. Katherine was friendly and thorough and even had enough time to quickly proofread my hubby's resume. It was really nice to get an extra set of eyes! While the $299 starter package seems a bit pricey, it's a good deal considering that you are equipped with the A team of an interviewer, drafter, and editor. They will rewrite your resume and can fine tune and belt out those bullet points. While my resume could use a few tweaks, the starter package is a great option if you're looking for a resume overhaul without doing all the guess work. I found the resume consultation surprisingly useful. Would highly recommend it and consider the packages!

Which I did for an in-person time several days out, and got a confirmation email back. Nowhere was I required to enter detailed background information. A couple hours before the meeting, I got an email saying I could only do a 15-minute phone call. I further got a phone call about two hours before the meeting from Mike Davidow. He was abrasive on the phone, and stated their consultation fee was $400 for half an hour. He kept speaking over me and complained. All poor service. Suggest they start by improving their website and not yelling at people over the phone. Don't recommend this firm.

The Buchanan Group helped to create a planning and engagement strategy, through a series of…read morefacilitated discussions for my nonprofit. Once we had agreed upon our messaging, approach, and implementation we were able to bring in the people who are responsible for day-to-day communications whether it be developing and managing social media, and other outreach activities so that this could be presented to those who fund the program, as well as implement engaging strategies on a day-to-day basis. The benefits are that the Buchanan group is able to tailor both the facilitation and expert recommendations so that we have our very own plans, strategy, and processes so that communications can be fully managed in-house. The staff also provided special training for those who may be in particular roles whether they speak to the media, or managing social media on a day-to-day basis. This substantially lowered our costs and increased greater efficacy and impact.

What I also knew was that there are plenty of obstacles, pit falls, and other things that would slow my pace. I was tired of the "1 step foward 2 steps back" trial and error method that was my business. I was searching for a mentor that could help me be better. I stumbled upon a LinkedIn post by Steve Chiama that discussed 3 questions about better marketing strategies which hit a nerve since marketing is such a large portion of my budget. During an initial lunch meet up with Steve we discussed several aspects of who I was, where my business was, and my near term goals. We talked about his history and some of the basics of the Action Coach model. Everything Steve said really grabbed my attention because it made sense. I felt that I could learn to be better with his tools and guidance. I decided to make an investment in myself as an owner and hired Steve to be my coach. I am soooooo happy that we met. Steve has helped me focus on defining the company structure and vision. We looked at the financials together and found where things were working and where we needed to tweak. He has helped me understand myself and my true role as a business owner. At times it is a frustrating experience, but when the breakthroughs happen it's amazing! Today my business is more than healthy. I feel more in control and I am confidently adding new team members into my profitable business. As with anything the results you get are a direct result of the effort you put in. If you are seriously sick of treading water as a business owner and have the fortitude to listen, learn, and implement needed changes, then I highly recommend Steve and the Action Coach team. Invest in yourself you won't regret it.

According to Tony Robbins the top things to look for in a business coach or mentor are:…read more 1. Someone who knows how to execute - The best coaches have already produced the results you want. 2. Don't expect perfection - Learn to not only accept those flaws in your mentor, but to also learn from them and model your behavior after what they've done correctly. 3. Someone who is not afraid to tell it like it is - Negative feedback can be hard to hear but is important in order to grow 4. Someone eager to help - Entrepreneurs should look for mentors who are eager to pass what they've learned to a new generation. I can say with confidence that you will find all of these qualities in Stephen. I'm proud to know him and say that I personally have learned much from my time with him. If you're looking for a business coach please stop and call Stephen. There are many "book smart" coaches out there that talk a good game, but Stephen is the type that has walked the walk and can provide valuable insight learned from years of being a business owner himself. Highly Recommend!
