Do you want to teach Ask For Directions Business Training?
What is the program?
Ask For Directions Business Training is an organization that uses an effective combination of coaching and business training to help new start-ups and entrepreneurs set up and grow their new businesses. We help them reduce the risk of failing through knowledge and empowerment.
What’s included in Licensing the program?
An online license is unlimited (there are also licenses for geographic regions where meeting in person is a critical element of business growth, (when meeting in person is possible).
Coach trainees learn coaching competencies and review the client program step by step to become familiar with business principles. Through this time they receive coaching while they walk through the solid coaching principles (based on the International Coach Federation) to the process of learning for new and growing entrepreneurs.
Weekly coaching calls allow for the exchange of ideas and approaches among licensees as well as the critical practice sessions to hone skills.
The client program is done for you, on a learning management platform that is already set up. As material changes, trainings are updated.
Do you have to be familiar with all subjects? No! You will learn this material too.
What’s included in the client-facing program?
- Eight client-facing learning modules contain pre-recorded lessons that train entrepreneurs in:
- Marketing to their clients,
- Effective communications and other business skills,
- A respectful sales process,
- Regulatory guidelines, and
- Setting up and tracking business finances.
- Trainers are themselves entrepreneurs and experts in their fields, with an understanding of how to apply their business expertise and experience to developing businesses.
- Coaches lead weekly calls to help their clients clarify and apply what they learn to their businesses. Feedback and guidance allows clients to apply what they learn and work through barriers. Expert instructors are encouraged to participate where this is desirable.
- Coach training for the client-facing modules and a learning process that anticipates client areas of friction, brings coach trainees up to speed with the material. Having experts in place to teach the breadth of subjects allows coach trainees to focus on that all-important coaching role to help facilitate client learning.
What kind of impact can you have by leading new entrepreneurs?
You can help the people you coach through your courses…
to ultimately:
…while you build a business for yourself that helps you achieve your dreams as well.
In practical terms, you can help them avoid mistakes they don’t even see coming as new entrepreneurs, while they define their future and embrace success. You can be a part of this transformative experience in which coaching is the secret ingredient – the difference that allows learning to become transformational!
What happens if entrepreneurs don’t get that support?
Without guidance and coaching support, the opportunity for new entrepreneurs to make costly mistakes that can delay or prevent success is widespread. And the impact of a pandemic means higher risk for many would-be entrepreneurs. Starting a business should not be this great a gamble.
Without guidance starting a business can be a failed experiment and a failed dream.
