Business coaching to help you become unstuck, and find clarity and confidence

Hey, I'm Phil, a UK-based small and entrepreneur business coach, working internationally. I'm the experienced, kind and supportive guy you come to when you're feeling stuck, unsure and unclear.

Business coaching is my passion, after having worked in online, tech and creative industries, and built and scaled my own successful online business to over 20 staff.

On the side, I love to travel, cook and hike (although I’m a fair weather walker!)

2 decades growing online business, turned coach

Our journeys through life have led us both exactly to here in this moment. 

We have our paths and sometimes those paths cross with just the right person at the right time. 

I might be the person who you need right now to support you in solving what you’re facing.

For my customers, I’m the person who the need to allow them to start or scale their business, and also to help them work out “what next”, if they need a new direction.

There’s a right path for you. It’s unique to you, and not shared with others. 1-2-1 coaching offers this.

Coaching takes a single person, their needs, their emotions, their values, their incredible mind, and helps them discover how to get the most from themselves.

Business experience plus recognised Coaching qualification

I’ve decades of business experience and have taken the time to qualify in a recognised and accredited coaching programme. I also have significant psychology knowledge, so I more deeply understand that challenges you’re facing.

My experience and passions means I regularly work with entrepreneurs, startups, freelancers and Small & Medium sized Businesses (SMBs) in tech, digital, online, creative, artistic, agency, coaching, consultancy and similar industries.

I have huge knowledge around online businesses, particularly in marketing, branding, design, user experience, automation and analytics.

I love to use those skills to support motivated individuals grow their businesses using the full benefits offered by online methods.

However, what truly holds people back is how they approach challenges, and I support all customers with this.

My personal experience of these 4 phases of business will advance you

By clearly understanding each phase, I can aid you in moving you to the next.

Let’s develop your product or service, build a plan, identify your market, create a branding a marketing strategy and get selling!

Scale

You’ve started a business already? Great! But how do you grow it? Now let’s work out what would be most impactful to work on to build stability.

Together, we’ll look at what drives you, what you need day to day and week to week, and what your values are, so we can plan changes that align with your future vision.

My journey through these 4 phases led me here.

Creative and tech background

Many years as a programmer, project manager, photographer, and online marketer have given me a huge volume of knowledge to share.

23 year business owner

And running an online business for over 20 years has given me the experience to grow and scale businesses.

Coaching & psychology

But when I really come alive is in helping others discover and reach their personal and professional goals. 

Nothing makes me happier!

I’m excited to use all of this to help you boost your business!

How an effective mindset delivers your dreams

Successful and unsuccessful strategies

We approach challenges in a similar way to similar previous experiences. 

If we used an effective strategy … great! But not all of our strategies are.

How you approach adversity

Let’s take an example.

If you lose a customer, is your response to blame them and their short sightedness? Or do you focus on serving your current customers better? Or do you choose to maximise your learning from the experience?

How we solve challenges create our mindset

The strategies we use time and again make up our mindset.

Let’s carve out a new mindset full of strategies that are more successful. 

These will grow your profits, happiness and fulfilment.

4 sincere beliefs I hold about you, even though we’ve never met.

My coaching is founded on these fundamental beliefs, since they are essential for support that leads to sustained growth and maximising business opportunity.

You’re worthy of success & happiness, in whatever that means for you.

You’ll rebound from the challenges & setbacks that currently trouble you.

You’re able to learn and grow, and it will aid you throughout your journey.

You’re closer than you believe to becoming the person who will achieve your goals.

What is the impact of not holding all of these beliefs about yourself?

Why "yet" is the tiny word that unlocks huge advantage

“Yet” is a somewhat forgotten and underused word.

It has power to completely change your approach to every day in your business. 

“I can’t… YET!!”

By adding yet on, “I can’t” becomes “I can’t yet”, which discards the idea that you’ve reached the limit of your capabilities, and that’s somehow final and forever.

“Yet” allows us to recognise that we’re on a business journey, and it’s OK that we’re not at our destination yet.

Embrace growth and gain advantage

By embracing the power of “yet” we move toward a growth mindset, and allow ourselves to recognise that our skills and knowledge are constantly expanding.

This will lead to the steady improvement that’ll give you the advantage you need against your competition.

Is your lack of faith in your ability to grow really warranted?

Goals, planning and strategy, without the fear and stress?

A business plan can seem scary and overwhelming, but they are essential for progress.

My totally unique MindMap approach will leave you awed, since it makes the process a breeze. 

We’ll create a visual roadmap with an outline that encompasses your goals, strategies and steps in a clear and concise way. 

You’ll stay focused, organised and motivated as you work toward your future vision for success.

I can’t wait to share this with you!

8 success blockers we’ll overcome to maximise your progress

You can achieve what you desire, but it’s essential to tackle what’s blocking you.

Unclear

OVERWHELMED

Let’s take a step back, re-evaluate and discover balance and gratitude.

WORRIED

I've experienced each of these blockers!

Embrace the journey of business

Growing a business is a unique journey, and throughout we nearly all experience doubt, imposter syndrome, struggle with making decisions, have days when we just … can’t, don’t know which want to go now.

The outcome is worth it

But on the other side is an amazing world where you’ve become happier, more free, choosing to work on what you love and have more awareness of yourself as a person than you ever could have gained working for someone else.

Let’s achieve your vision

Right now, you have some kind of vision. It might be clear. It might not be. 

You might not think it’s achievable.

But if you’re determined and will choose to continue, nothing can stop you.

Let's dispel a myth; improving productivity isn't about pushing yourself harder

Many people misunderstand productivity; they’ve been led to believe that it means pushing yourself harder, which only leads to a poor work-life balance and unhappiness.

In reality, the solution lies within listening to ourselves and truly understanding what’s holding us back.

With awareness, we find new solutions, and clients become more effective and efficient. 

This leads to reduced stress and increased fulfilment and pride at their achivements.

In this state of mind, we make amazing decisions and tackle the challenges we experience in motivated and creative ways.
