I didn't think I needed an Action coach after 24 years in business but the last 2 months with Simac made me realise while most of my business is working well I hadn't tackled some areas.

Alan Smith of ActionCOACH was born to do this, positive, engaging, encouraging and supportive. Working with Alan is adding great value to my work /life balance, providing me with the self focus to improve myself and those around me. Highly skilled as a coach, Alan quickly helps you to identify that changes and improvements are within you, small steps turn to solid strides when you have someone in your corner to help you help yourself.
I highly recommend Alan at ActionCoach.

Julie at ActionCOACH!

This is just a short message to say a big thank you to Julie from ActionCOACH.

I recently attended an online book club being held by ActionCOACH Solihull after hearing so much positive feedback. At first I was hesitant as reading books has never been my strength (my mind tends to wander at a thousand miles an hour!).

The session itself was filled with useful insights and knowledge — even the authors of the book were able to attend.

If anyone is looking at taking on a new coach or would like to join a virtual book club, I can wholly recommend speaking to Julie from ActionCOACH.

Thank you!

I employed the services of Action Coach…

I employed the services of Action Coach 3 years ago. I can see now looking back what a strange relationship it was. The advice is simplistic at best. They gather personal information on you via DISC analysis and then in my experience this information was used against me so that my business partner was able to manipulate me alongside the business 'coach'. They worked together to gaslight me along with another work colleague.
None of the 'coaches' I came across had any formal training, they also had no code of ethics. Also whatever you do - don't write anything in those letters they give you at the 1/4 meetings. They are supposed to remain sealed and are posted to you before the next meeting. Mine was opened. I never wrote another.
I really can't think of a single good word to say. It's just a franchise business for those 'coaches' that buy-in. I will never forget some of their advice which was to sign up to some social media classes on Udemy - brilliant 5 star advice at 5 star prices.

Life Changing Experience

I have had the recent pleasure of working with Fiaz Sadiq on my new venture. Fiaz has helped me break down my barriers, build a solid plan, which has been beneficial for both my business and personal life goals. He possesses a powerful combination of expert knowledge and methodologies that is adaptable to any business. After each session, Fiaz will always leave you smiling with a solid plan and tangible action steps. If you are a business owner or a professional, Fiaz will not only help you to achieve your business goals, he will help create a better version of yourself. Fiaz earns my highest recommendation.

I enjoyed the session a lot

I enjoyed the session a lot, thank you. The non 'specifically general' info was most useful but I guess you have to offer a broad brush approach to appeal to all.

Getting lost within all the LinkedIn functionality is a pain. A hypelinked crib sheet would be a great bonus I suggest.

Do contact me if you wish to follow up on my thoughts please.

I completely recommend his sessions, he even offers a free one to one for your business, can't say fairer than that. Thank you Gavin.

An Amazing Business Coach

Stuart is an amazing business coach. One of the key benefits which I get from business coaching is the accountability aspect of the coaching. Rather than just creating endless to do lists, Stuart helps businesses to transform those lists into reality!

Stuart Mason - Inspirational to say the least

Stuart Mason is by far the most inspirational person I have ever worked with! Within two coaching sessions, he is already helping to make my business more focused and professional. For anyone looking to add value and focus, I can't think of anyone I'd rather have by my side. Just don't make the same mistake I made, thinking I couldn't afford his services, I am fast learning that I can't afford not to have Stuart with me on my journey.

Incredible experience!

Incredible experience with a seasoned professional entrepreneur. It was particularly insightful to watch how Brad moved seamlessly from one section to the next and his personal stories that helped us understand the individual sections of training.
