“Spending time & energy and focusing on my business is critical to its success. Well worth the investment and time. The Growth Coach system, tools and process are highly inspirational and effective.

 -- Julie Ferman, Dating Coach

"Jonathan has provided value for my team and I since our first exploratory phone call. His depth of knowledge of all aspects of growing a business is unmatched in my opinion and I continue to gain valuable insights, advice, and critique in every weekly phone session. I would recommend Jonathan to any company in any industry who wants to exceed their goals and take their business to the next level. If you are ready to grow and thrive in this economy, the Growth Coach is the way to go!"

“Jonathan helped extract me from the trenches of my business. He gave me the information and encouragement to work on building my company. Everything was custom built to suit my particular strengths. We have had a great year so far and stand to have the best year ever in terms of work sold. Plus I have been able to focus on my personal life, and no longer feel like a slave to my trade.”

- Nikos Lynch, Owner

"What I’ve learned from Jonathan Goldhill is transforming how I approach life in general and business in particular.  I’m becoming more of a CEO and less of a worker bee. His suggestion to make and apply a personal “Not to Do List” in my business has given me several extra days a month to work on the things that really count.”

– John R. Hernandez, Owner

STRATEGIC COACHING GROUP PROGRAM for CONTRACTORS:

LANDSCAPERS, ARCHITECTS, INSTALLATION CONTRACTORS, DESIGN-BUILD AND MAINTENANCE COMPANIES & OTHER COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL CONTRACTORS

Weekly Coaching Program held via Internet & Telephone

 

DOES THIS DESCRIBE YOU?
After 5, 10 or 20 years as a business owner, you have achieved a level of success, but you cannot surpass it.  You employ 5-150 employees, but you are working a lot of hours still.  You're not making as much money as you would like.  And, you might like to sell the business one day but your business depends too much on you and your presence for things to go smoothly.

You would like to take your business to the next level and take some more time off.  BUT you have no plan on how you will do it!

OUR SOLUTION:
What if you really could earn more money, work less time in your business and enjoy life more?  What would that be worth to you?

Would you invest a small amount of your time and money in a weekly small business training and personal/business focusing program with 8-16 of your peers if it only required 90 minutes a week AND if it promised to increase your income and free up more time? 

By participating in our Coaching for Contractors Program: Strategic Business Owners Group you will be learning to apply valuable information such as successful techniques in selling, marketing, and leading others to developing a simple business and strategic plan that fits into your personal vision and goals.  These teachings will be shared by me and reinforced by your peers in other parts of the country.   You will learn how to manage your time more effectively, how to manage people more effectively and how to delegate more effectively so that your business can eventually work without you. 

DON'T HAVE TIME?
When we ask what objections people have to getting started on a personal growth and business education program, we typically hear the same things.  You either don't have the time or don't know what you'll learn that you don't already know.  

We hear people say:

"I've always wanted some business training but I've never had the time to get the kind of training you offer."

So, read what Marc Vance of Sunburst Shutters in Vancouver, BC said to the left after just the first week of our program! 

Or, they say:

"How can you help me if you don't really know me or my business?"

We don't need to know your business because we know business.  We're not experts in your business!  We're experts in getting you more focused and making business simpler.  Since most owners and managers struggle with vision and execution, our work is to reduce the complexity of your business and to refocus you on fundamentals in selling, marketing, leading, etc.

 

 

 

ABOUT US
Welcome. My name is Jonathan Goldhill and I'm The Growth Coach in Los Angeles.  I'm a member of the CLCA (California Landscape Contractors Association) and frequent contributor to their industry publications and speaker at their events and those of other landscape associations including Michigan Green Industry Association, etc.  I've been published multiple times in Professional Roofer, Lawn & Landscape, Painting & Decorating Contractor publications, San Fernando Valley Business Journal and various other landscape industry publications.  I'm an experienced business coach with 20 years experience providing small businesses with consulting, training, and financing assistance.  I've helped hundreds of businesses and owned six small businesses myself.  Three of my businesses grew to several million dollars per year in sales.

Our clients are business owners, executive managers and self-employed people who want to grow their business and increase their freedom.  Since teaming in 2004 with The Growth Coach, a national organization of coaches who are experts in optimizing the mindset of our clients, I've found some of the best training materials to free our clients from working too hard and earning too little. I've been an authorized coach for Duct Tape Marketing, student of The Sandler Sales program, graduate of the MBA program at University of Southern California's Entrepreneur program and did post-graduate studies at the Peter F. Drucker School of Management.

 

I've learned how to take the best-of-breed learning materials and share it with you while in the comfort of your own office or home to make the learning easier.
