Claire Boyles – Testimonial for Stephen Wells as a Business Coach

claire boylesI hired Stephen to work with me when I was creating Social Media Strategy for a national campaign, an event that saw over 30,000 people register!

I needed to be able to “think out loud” to someone who understood the industry, had an excellent grasp of processes & systems, and would ask me the right questions, so I didn’t leave any gaps. Stephen worked with me for 2 full days, prompting me when I overlooked areas, and keeping me focused on the whole process. (I’m a creative person- I tend to go off on tangents, unless I’m reined in). Using his coaching skills, Stephen drew out the knowledge I had in my head and enabled me to create a comprehensive social media strategy, where I was able to outline every possible channel and creating various different campaigns to utilise the power of social media to gain maximum coverage.

I was very happy working with Stephen, he has so many valuable assets and skills, and I look forward to working with him again in the future.

I was struggling to turn my business ideas into action that would have an impact. If I am truthful this had been going on for a while, months maybe years! (I’ve known Steve for about 4 years).

A workshop Steve ran was my tipping point, I realised that I needed a coach now in order to be successful, not wait until I was successful!

I’m really happy that I finally took the action that I needed (signing up for the Business Focus Programme), and since starting with Steve I have gained focus about where I’m going and how I achieve it. And importantly I now have the confidence and belief to know that I will achieve it.

Steve’s coaching is tailored to me as an individual, the specifics that my business needs and the way that I will be able to implement them. His coaching recognises the importance of an individual‘s personal qualities to make a business work. There’s no hiding from myself, or my excuses! (He is tough in a humorous, honest way!)
My favourite bits of coaching have been when I get understanding and clarity around something I’ve been struggling with for a while.
Also it’s about knowing there is someone who cares about me/my business, the work I do, and wants me to succeed. Knowing I have a sounding board who will give it me straight by asking me the ‘right’ questions to find my answers and quickly get me moving again. I’m enjoying the challenge that it gives me to work productively and with clear purpose.

As a professional coach I would recommend coaching. It holds me accountable to myself. For me, working on my own, to have the support to keep me focused and on track with what I really want to be doing in my business, the coaching work I love, being coached myself is a must. An outside perspective who supports my aims and who will call me out, not agree with everything to please me...challenging and rewarding, I enjoy it.

I value the support I get from business coaching with Steve and it’s part of my ongoing business model. I will definitely be renewing after my first six months as I know it will continue to be helpful in keeping me focused and clear about my goals in my business. I feel excited about where I’m going with my business, instead of feeling bogged down by parts of it and the process of getting there.

Thanks Steve!

Testimonial from Blissful Healthcare for SME Focus Business Coaching Programme

Testimonial for AIM to Succeed – SME Focus Business Coaching Programme.

We have just completed our first six months SME Focus business coaching programme with Stephen Wells from AIM to Succeed and have written this testimonial to express our true feeling and thanks.

We found it very productive:

It helped us identifying and managing our key issues.

Steve also guided us how to make more sales/be productive and how to manage our internal staff.

It helped us working out how many clients/sales we needed to be breakeven and be profitable and we successfully put the sales strategy in place and are moving towards success.

As it was a new business starter and unfortunately we initially faced many challenging problems in our business, Steve stepped in and helped us to understand the core issues and how to tackle them according to their merit without forgetting our main objectives.

Whenever, we contacted Steve in regards to any business issues/problems, he always responded in a prompt manner and gave us the true insight of it and a appropriate solution.

We were always amazed how quickly he was able to understand our business issues and quickly offer solutions.

During this six months period, we always had a piece of mind and felt that there was someone who could be able to quickly help us whenever we needed.

So, we must say that we very highly recommend Steve’s services and the 6 month SME Focus business coaching programme  for any new or existing businesses.

We are confident that every new or existing business owner would definitely benefit from it.

Thanks again.

Business Coaching Testimonial for AIM to Succeed from Natasha Robinson

Business Coaching Testimonial

for AIM to Succeed from Natasha Robinson.

I chose to have some coaching as I needed to refocus.

I had planned a variety of networking events to engage my clients/potential clients but I was really unsure about what I was trying to get out of these events and who I wanted to promote it to.

By having some coaching (with Steve from AIM to Succeed) I was able to refine my plans and understand my market better so that I could direct my content and invitations to the right people to make these events a success.

I felt that Steve really showed that he understood me and what I was trying to achieve and he probed enough to really get me thinking in the right way. What I particularly liked was that Steve did not pretend to know my industry better than me, but helped provided some light bulb moments which reassured me that I did know the answers, I just needed the refocus.

I think the benefit of spending time with Steve was that I got real value for my business and left with a strategy of not just immediate steps but for future actions.

I think that this coaching would benefit all types of business, regardless of the industry or specific issue and I would encourage anyone who needs to find focus in their business to speak to Steve Wells at AIM to Succeed.

Business Coaching Testimonial

for AIM to Succeed from Glenda Tickle (RBS).

I met Steve through networking and after several conversations I chose to have some business coaching from him to help me build a successful networking/support group for my clients to help benefit them.

Steve totally understood what I was trying to achieve and pointed me in the right direction to allow my thought process to work correctly. I felt it was well worth the time and could have gone on for longer. He has helped me refine my thoughts and plans for a successful future in engaging with my clients and supporting them on their journey (whatever path that is).

I am now eagerly setting up my next event with a renewed vigour and purpose!

I believe that everyone can benefit from business coaching from Stephen Wells at AIM to Succeed and I would happily recommend him.

Business Coaching Testimonial for AIM to Succeed from Hobbs Granger Roitt

Business Coaching Testimonial

for AIM to Succeed from Hobbs Granger Roitt.

It has been a positive experience working with Steve as my business coach over the last 12 months. He has an easy going style but doesn’t let you off the hook, (after all what’s the point of having a coach if you aren’t going to take it seriously). Steve clearly has a wide knowledge of the coaching field which allows us to speak about almost anything in business I care to raise.

As many will recognise, running a business at times entails keeping a number of plates going all at once. The decision, to take on Steve to assist me in keeping focussed on what was most important whilst dealing with those day to day issues, has proved invaluable. Talking through a variety of topics and long term projects with Steve has resulted in improvements in my business which ultimately means it has also benefitted my clients.

His approach to our sessions, whilst flexible, is structured which means I always get the chance to explore current issues but still deal with the meat of my business goals.

The reason I continue to use Steve from Aim to Succeed as my business coach is that my time is precious and I can only afford to work with people who will help me make a difference in my business and he helps me achieve that.

Business Coaching Testimonial for AIM to Succeed from Always Chauffeur

Business Coaching Testimonial

for AIM to Succeed from Always Chauffeur.

Natalie Mitchellwww.Alwayschauffeur.co.ukI was in the second year of trading of Always Chauffeur (I also have another business that has been running for 10+years), when I took Stephen as my business coach.

I felt I needed some new injection of ideas and help to implement them to take both businesses to the next level.

No looking back now they have taken off!!

I had no real idea of what results I was looking to achieve, I was busy in 2 businesses and knew I needed to find the time to grow them.

Coaching sessions, are focused, helpful, with lots of focused action for me to do afterwards, so I know exactly what I want/need to do. Steve helps me to identify the purpose of my ideas so that we can expand or contract them to get the right results.
What gets implemented is always my choice, it is my business after all but as Steve understands me and my business he is able to come up with some real nuggets that get results.

My favourite bit of the coaching is actually the reactions I get from others when they see the changes I make. They prove to me that ideas and my implementation are working.

I would definitely recommend coaching to others, especially with Stephen Wells as your Business Coach.

I really value Steve as an asset to my business and look forward to working with him long into the future (whatever other business ideas I come up with) He is like gold dust…..
