Let Us Help You To Learn How To Work 'On' Instead of Working 'In' Your Business:

A lot of Business Owners seem to work harder than any of their employees and many seem to make less income that they could make elsewhere. People start their own business for one thing only FREEDOM. Whether that is the ‘Freedom’ to work for themselves, having more ‘free’ time to themselves, ‘financial freedom’ or just the ‘freedom’ of knowing that they’re in charge of their lives – ‘Freedom’ is the main motivator.

The danger is that instead of finding ‘Freedom’ – a lot of Business Owners just end up finding ‘employment’. All their efforts and investment in establishing their new business may appear to the Business Owner as if they have just bought themselves employment! Most people setting up new businesses will be ‘subject matter experts’ in their own field but often lack the overall business management skills required to run a successful enterprise. At the outset a good Accountant and legal advice are crucial but in order to move your business on and achieve the desired ‘Freedom’ – the service of a Business Coach will be invaluable. Business Coaching is relatively new in Ireland and is producing fantastic results. The growth in this sector has been phenomenal and is a direct response to the needs of the SME’s. Given the current economic climate – this help is now more valuable than ever.

The Facts About Irish Businesses - All You Need To Know...

In Ireland 66% of small businesses will fail in their first 5 years, of the 34% that survive during this initial period - 66% of these will fail in the next 5 years. There are many reasons why businesses fail in Ireland, the main reasons include:
- Poor cash-flow management
- Lack of skills and business knowledge within the organisation
- Absence of planning, direction and accountability
- Reluctance on behalf of the business owners to seek outside help in a timely manner
- Stress from all of the above leading to burn-out and business breakdown

Our recent client Survey shows that only 21% of our clients hold a Business Related degree – therefore almost 80% of Business Owners have no formal business training and in this current economic climate – now more than ever before - they need our help. Our statistics also show that almost 40% of our clients are in business less than 10 years, they have no experience of trading in a recession and need our help to change and adapt in order to survive in these changed circumstances. Having a Business Coach is now no longer a luxury – it is essential for the survival of all SME’s.

Meet - PAUL FAGAN - Managing Director - ActionCOACH Business Coach Ireland:

Paul Fagan - Managing Director of ActionCOACH Ireland - introduced ActionCOACH to Ireland in 2002. Paul is married with two young children, he grew up in and still lives in Howth, Co. Dublin. He has extensive experience in Banking having spent 7 years working in branch banking before moving to London to work with Bank of Boston in 1989. In early 1991 - Paul returned to Dublin and joined Ulster Investment Bank as Manager in the Corporate Banking Division where he worked with corporate clients in the property and argicultural sectors. Paul transferred to the Private Client Unit at Ulster Bank Group in 1997 as the demand for investment management services was growing in line with the growing Irish economy.

During his career, in the days before the 'Celtic Tiger', Paul Fagan saw many Irish companies struggle and realised that in most cases it was that the Business Owners were too busy working on the day-to-day activities and not able to spend time growing the business.

Paul Fagan - Managing Director of ActionCOACH Ireland - is a Certified Business Coach. He is recognised as an expert in Franchising and is also a board member of the Irish Franchise Association.

ActionCOACH Ireland now has a team of 30 Irish Business Coaches - located nationwide.
