"Simon is intuitive and inspirational. I was faced with a large number of decisions and options. Simon's logical approach has enabled me to focus on the essential, daily tasks while always looking ahead to my ultimate goals. Simon's ActionCoach method brings together life skills and business needs to make complex issues more manageable and enjoyable. Thank you, Simon, for helping me see the "wood" from the trees!"

I have recently attended a few of the coaching sessions conducted by ActionCOACH Simon Marshall, including the GrowthCLUB 90 day plan.
I was very impressed with his knowledge and delivery of information. So impressed I decided to engage him as my business coach and have not been disappointed.
I would highly recommend Simon to other business’s and encourage them to attend some of the free sessions that he offers.
Thank you, Simon.

Thank you for your presentation at the GrowthCLUB Workshop. The accompanying workbook was easy to use and I found the day’s course very useful in separating goals into sections that could then be broken down into smaller tasks.
As a result of the course, I have a clearer picture of what we need to do over the next 90 days to help achieve our goals. I have also actioned plans we already had thanks to the weekly planner.

Thank you for your help.

I was thoroughly impressed with Simon’s ActionCoach Growth Club. He gave a clear, thorough and very interactive presentation, and I came away with a different mindset around my work. For thirteen years I had successfully worked as a freelance graphic designer. I came away from Growth Club with a vision and a plan for my business, which I continue to follow. I can now look ahead and see where I want to get to, and know what I need to do in order to get there.

Working long hours in my Salon I was always asking myself questions! Will it always be like this; not enough time, always busy and tired?
ActionCOACH was the answer for my questions.
It has not only helped me to see other ways of running my business but has supported me and kept me focused and motivated.
By Simon’s recommendations and regular meetings I started to change the way I see my business and make decisions.
Pity I didn't meet Simon before -my life and business would be so much easier!
Thank you
Eliza

Simon has been assisting our Senior Management for the past year and it has been a great journey. The move from an ‘in the business’ culture to now a real drive to ‘on the business’ has been transformation.

Stuart Manning, Shotcrete

Absolutely brilliant. I have been working with Simon for six months now and my business and my personal life have changed dramatically over this period. I am more confident with my decision making, and have put systems in place to test and measure the performance turnover and output of my business. A big thank you Simon for all of your hard work

Phil Usher, Usher Motors

I no longer feel guilty walking out the door to have personal time during working hours. As a director of the business, we have been able to shift to a new corporate dimension of alignment and we are focusing together on making the right decisions for our business. Instilling focus on goals and achievement and holding ourselves accountable. Thank you, Simon.

Jo Bligh, Shotcrete

Simon is one of those people that can look at any issues and work with you so that you can create clear actions on how best to move forward and where to focus your attention, his understanding of how business work is first class with people skills to match, an absolute breath of fresh air. I look forward to working with you for many years to come as we move forward.

Ian Walton, SPS

I just wanted to say, you absolutely blew my mind and really lit a fire in me. You helped me to understand and ask questions I didn't even know about, and explained everything so thoroughly and so clearly and I just wanted to say thank you so very much for your time, preparation, and generosity in sharing your expertise with us. Please let me know how and where I can write a testimonial for your GrowthCLUB as I would and will be happily ranting and raving to other young business owners like myself, and want others to attend as well.

Shanel Richardson, Littleshygifts

I can highly recommend Simon's webinars. I cam away from We Can't Manage Time wit new determination to tackle my time vampires and eat that frog first! Clear, insightful and with a free resource of a default diary. This training analysed precisely what drains our time, and offered easy-to-apply solutions - making sure that what matters most is given priority. A game-changer for any small business

Olivia Levez

I thought Simon spoke excellently and was very well prepared. Luckily, I had already read "7 habits of highly effective people", "swallow the frog" and "the 80:20 principle" and so felt as though I could grasp the material really well. It was good to hear it all being tied together in a coherent and actionable way and I also have already made use of the time management sheet that he emailed me. It has helped me already!

Robbie Symes, Native Cook

This training was very informative, covered subjects that I wasn’t aware of – shared also great resources to work with. Excellent course and positive trainer.

Sopie Lolo

Very helpful advice given. highly recommended business coach.

Lisa Nightingale, The Nightingale Garden

Simon is very knowledgeable about growing businesses and great at asking insightful questions to make you think about your situation in a constructive manor. He is motivated to help not only his clients, but to support all his business associates, which is a fantastic attribute. A complete pro.

John Langridge, EngineRoom Websites

Simon, has a wealth of business knowledge, he knows how to really get right to the crux of the issue, he’s incredibly perceptive and genuinely wants the very best for his clients.
He’s a really good guy too. A family man himself who understands the challenges business owners can encounter. I highly recommend him.

Alison Mathias, AlisonWonderland Photography

I have done some 1-1 and group sessions with Simon and I have to say his approach is brilliant. Very personal but very professional. The system he uses Is very clever and helps focus you on what needs doing in my business. Simon listens, which is key, then offers great advice. I also attend profit club, group coaching sessions, these are great, we benefit from Simons expertise but also get help from other business owners and understand that issues in my business are often happening in others. I am happy to recommend Simon.

Cale Sinfield, Social Bee Social Media

I've been using Simon's services for the last couple of months. I'm part of the Profit Club which meets fortnightly. I get to meet a number of business owners each time and we discuss and share ideas and problems and solutions with each other. Simon is very knowledgeable and I always come away from each session with things to implement into my business. The tailored service is great at holding you accountable for things, which I need. I would recommend Simon to any business owner who needs coaching on a regular basis moving forward and growing their business.

Sarah Walker-Bennett,

Owning two businesses is extremely challenging at the best of times but with Simon's help I have learnt how to manage my time better. He has helped me to work out what's important, what's urgent and what can wait but still needs doing. One thing that always sticks in my mind every day is - "I should be working on this business not in the business"

Simon taught me how think things through more logically and professionally and gave me the confidence I needed to manage our 28/30 members of staff better. He was always at the end of the phone or email with helpful advice when needed.

If anyone is thinking of doing a Business coaching course I would always recommend Action Coach Business Coaching - Simon will soon have you thinking about things differently to make running or managing a business so much easier and more smoothly.
Remember you should be working on your business not in it!!!

Kate Parker

I would be more than happy to recommend Simon to any business wishing to improve their performance. I found him very professional and friendly throughout and his willingness go above and beyond to help you succeed in business.

Dawn Treacy, High & Mighty Scaffolding

I highly recommend Simon at Action Coach Hastings and his team. They provide first class advice and support for businesses based on an immense business experience, and backed by a really fantastic resource base. Simon and his team are patient, courteous and fun to work with, and coupled with a no nonsense approach you will receive training that is insightful, thought provoking, and which gets results. Critically, training is individually tailored to the personality of the client, as well as the diversity of the business they are working with. The breadth of skills and advice learnt has been colossal - highly recommended!

Helen N. Whitehead Owner/Director at Price Whitehead Chartered Surveyors, Rural Building Design & Planning Consultants

Simon's knowledge and passion to grow your business is second to none. He asked thought provoking questions to get to know our business and encourage us to think from different perspectives. He listens and really cares about giving business owners more time, more money and better teams. I would highly recommend Simon at Action Coach Hastings.

Amy Hoyle, Property Manager at Pure Lettings

After my business’s income being stagnant for three to four years, I knew something had to change but I wasn't sure what. This is when I made contact with Simon. Having spoken to a couple of business coaches in the past, I was concerned that there would be high pressure sales and it would be more about their figures than mine. This was not the case with Simon. Within minutes of talking to him, his genuine interest in your business and the growth of it was clear. We had a couple of no obligation sessions to allow him to understand my business and how I wanted it to develop. It was clear Simon could help.

I started to attend his ProfitCLUB sessions. When you are working in your business it is sometimes very difficult to step back and look at the bigger picture. This is what ProfitCLUB is all about. Very quickly it helped me understand my figures better, allowing me to make greater profits on services I already offered. The task set as “homework” gave me a greater understanding of what my clients wants and needs were. These are just two of the take-aways I got from my first few sessions.

Thanks to Simon, my business’s profit is forecast to be over 35% up on what it was last year. It doesn't matter if you're an old or a new business, if you are looking to increase your income then I would highly recommend speaking to Simon.

Jax Lawson-McBrien, Utility Warehouse

“I would just like to say a personal thank you to you both for everything you did for me at the Business Strategy Day.
What a fantastic day, I don’t think I have ever left a workshop full of such excitement and drive to push my business forward as I did that day.
The day was so relaxed, yet extremely informative at the same time.
It was so nice to be in a room with other like minded business owners facing similar issues as myself and with the support and guidance from Simon he made us all realise that anything was possible if we followed such simple tools that Simon kindly taught and gave us.
I can not recommend the day enough to other business owners as you will leave exhilarated, driven and with a clear direction for your business over the next 12-18 months. I have already booked on for next year.
Thank you again to both of you”.

Rachel Kanek, Spiff + Spruce Ltd

I attended Simon’s Growth club for the 1st time last week. I was really impressed with the knowledge and understanding he has of how to grow your business. The format was totally different to any I have attended before, which I found very refreshing, informative, and interactive. I have come away with so many ideas and a clear vision to move my business forward.
I recommend Simon & Growth Club to anyone looking to grow their business.

Alison Gordon, The Computer People

"I attended Simon Marshall's Growth Club for planning the next 90 days. Having done all the prep work efficiently sent previously to the day, I was excited. I was not disappointed. Simon knows his stuff and took us through videos and learning moments to support creating an effective inspiring plan for the next three months for my business. The guest speaker was a delight and added another dimension to an already mind blowing day. I have now joined Simon's profit club for ongoing group mentoring. And would highly recommend Simon Marshall, Action Coach to any business looking to grow. Thank you Simon."
