Sole practitioners have said about our coaching partnership

"Lowell Ann, thank you for your continued support, experience and guiding light over the last 9 months, you have proved to be an invaluable asset to me and my new business. Since we have worked together my business has grown from 6 clients to over 40 amazing new business relationships. With that growth my business has become self sustainable and I am now able to enjoy the freedoms and joys of being self employed.I realize we are always working towards bigger and better things but when I stop and look back at what we have accomplished together in 9 months it really makes me appreciate your support and experience as part of my team and business coach. You've helped me form my business vision, held me accountable to my objectives and coached me play by play through the obstacles of starting and growing a new business. Much like a professional athlete who achieves great things, they achieve it through diligence, hard work and no doubt with a great coach. Most of the time coaches are behind the scenes and out of the spotlight but they are always nearby with their experience, knowledge and foresight. I'm looking forward to accomplishing even more great things with an exceptional coach in my corner.I hope we continue to work together as I continue to shape my business vision, achieving goals and reaching milestones along the way. I continually recommend your coaching services to my business partners, consultants and contacts with enthusiasm and confidence. Thank you for your coaching support, experience and foresight." Sincerely, Ryan Leinweber (2006) HoneycombWebworks - Marketing and Design for the Web

"It made a big difference to me to know that someone was there to "help" me. Because I work on my own (self-employed) and because I often feel so helpless with my health issues, it was a great personal motivator to "not feel alone" while tackling things." LC

"I have recently hired Lowell Ann as my business coach and she has been instrumental in helping me expand my business. Her advice and direction is timely and dead-on. She is able to quickly extract important information and direct my efforts to exactly where they need to go. I would recommend her to anyone who is committed to cultivating a great business and a great life."

I was attracted to coaching because of some lack of organizational skills. I needed some orientation for my new project. You provided me with a route map and helped me to follow it. The outcome: I have a better idea where I am now with my business. I now have a direction to follow. I discovered that follow up is very important for keeping a plan on track. You have a system in place that made me feel that I'm not just wandering around but actually going somewhere. Martin Lluis-O'Hara, My eCarousel.com

We got slightly off-track in session 2, but actually that may have helped bring me to the outcome. So everything was great and I am incredibly grateful to you for this opportunity. Plus I learned some coaching skills just from being coached by you. You are so comfortable in what you do that it was like having a conversation with someone I knew well, but a very perceptive and skilled someone.  Jennifer Gait, Life Coach

LC

Outcome of our coaching was my increased confidence level in team meetings. With this coaching I developed ways to get above the teams looking at my age and experience as a barrier and get the teams to buy into the information I was trying to present. I accomplished what I set out to - I was made aware of my language and learned to change it during presentations. I also learned time management techniques to assist me in my project planning. Giving out tasks and showing how the individuals benefited from these tasks were another take away. JM
