What do you do differently or how is your coaching different from others?
I do not subscribe to a one-size-fits-all approach which is more common in the industry. I focus on custom-consulting that focuses on goals/outcomes. Our mentoring program is special as it takes into consideration the founder/entrepreneur’s background, their strengths, weakness, aspirations, maturity, knowledge, budgets, risk taking ability, vision, aspirations, culture, amongst many. I also consult founders and sometimes take up the role of a Virtual-CMO helping them not just coach, but walk along with them in execution of strategies through smart tactics. This gives the founders not just knowledge but also the confidence to build and scale-up their business.
What according to you has been the single most important thing that has contributed to your success as a coach?
The single most important thing that has not just contributed to the success but significant credibility is the breadth and depth of knowledge which is a rare to find. I use different coaching models – Business Mentoring for aspiring and early-stage entrepreneurs, Growth Consulting Model for startup founders, and Virtual-CMO consulting model for startups and SMEs that require scaling up revenues, expand their business. Each will require unique and proven (smart) strategies that incorporates growth hack techniques.

What do you do differently or how is your coaching different from others?
My business coaching is different from many other coaches because I am a serial entrepreneur and have started from nothing–twice! Such a diversity of experience broadens my perspective and gives me empathy for founders who are experiencing uncertainty. Founders who are under $2M in annual revenue find that I’m able to help them scale quickly and give them a strategy that gets results within 90 days.
What according to you has been the single most important thing that has contributed to your success as a coach?
I believe in the power of coaching. Not only do I coach, I have a coach and mastermind group that I am part of. A coach can help you see blind spots and add a non-biased outlook to provide a different perspective. Along with a voracious appetite for continual learning and staying in the trenches with my founders, these factors contribute to my success.
