The Power of Business Coaching

Transform Your Vision, Amplify Your Success

Do you ever feel stuck in the grind of working in your business, unable to step back and see the bigger picture? Or perhaps you’re overwhelmed, chasing every opportunity but struggling to make real progress.

You need a business coach.

A business growth coach can provide the clarity and objectivity you need to view yourself and your business through a new lens.

With this fresh perspective, you’ll unlock the strategies, focus, and confidence required to create the success you’ve always envisioned – not just for your business but for your life.

Mechanics & Mindset
Business Coaching

Running a business means facing challenges daily – pricing, employee satisfaction, growth strategies, work-life balance, and more. The key to overcoming these hurdles? Gaining an objective perspective and breaking free from the stress of daily operations.

That’s where I come in. In weekly 1-hour sessions, we tackle your most pressing issues head-on. Together, we’ll clarify your challenges, see them objectively, and create actionable plans to address them.

  • Mechanical solutions might involve hiring a bookkeeper or offering employee retention packages.
  • Mindset shifts could include gratitude exercises or thought-reframing techniques like “climbing the ladder.”

Every plan is tailored to turn your challenges into opportunities for growth. As you overcome obstacles, you’ll see measurable improvements in your business, relationships, and outlook – and yes, in your bottom line.

Industry Experience

My goal is to offer honest, experience-based business growth coaching to help you navigate your unique industry challenges. Here’s how my experience aligns with the industries I coach

Energy Service Companies (STRONG)

As a former ESCo owner, I have deep expertise in this field. I coach CEOs and teams in business strategy, development, engineering, construction, and more. My experience extends to related industries like engineering firms, construction companies, HVAC and lighting contractors, and others in green energy.

Service-Based Businesses (MODERATE)

I’ve successfully coached owners of restaurants, insurance agencies, childcare centers, therapists, HVAC contractors, and more. While I don’t provide industry-specific advice on mechanics, I excel at guiding these businesses toward overall success.

Other Companies (LIGHT)

For small retailers and manufacturers, I focus on mindset coaching and straightforward mechanics. My guidance is limited for businesses with complex distribution, supply chains, or manufacturing processes.

The Mechanics

of a Thriving Business

Every business is a complex system of interconnected components that must work seamlessly together to achieve success. I refer to these essential elements as the “mechanics” of a business.

The mechanics include:

  • Operations - Delivering your product or service effectively
  • Marketing - Attracting and engaging new prospects
  • Sales - Converting prospects into loyal customers
  • Employees - Empowering your team as drivers of growth, not detractors
  • Finance - Managing resources strategically
  • Growth - Building scalability and sustainability
  • Legacy - Creating a meaningful, enduring impact
  • You - Maximizing your effectiveness as a leader

Each of these components is measurable and improvable. By fine-tuning these mechanics, you can transform your business into a well-oiled machine positioned for long-term success.

The Mindset

The Foundation of Organizational Success

A company’s success is intricately tied to the thoughts and emotions of the people who drive it. These collective mental and emotional states – what we call mindset – play a pivotal role in shaping outcomes.

The prevailing mindsets within your organization can be categorized as follows:

  • Victim - I lose
  • Conflict - I win, you lose
  • Acceptance - I win...
  • Compassion - You win...
  • Opportunity - Win / Win
  • Synergy - Everyone wins

Each of these mindset conditions generates distinct outcomes, influencing everything from collaboration to productivity. By fostering higher-level mindsets such as Opportunity and Synergy, you can unlock the true potential of your people and ensure your company’s success. The right mindset is not just a factor – it is the critical difference between thriving and failing.

What clients are saying...

I’m grateful for my many business owner clients over the years. As you can see by this list, I coach a diverse group of entrepreneurs. If you are interested in coaching, book a time to talk about how you can benefit from business coaching.

I have known and worked with Jeff for many years. Our paths reconnected several years ago when I asked Jeff to get involved in my company's Advisory Board. As usual, Jeff went above and beyond the call of duty during that engagement. Since that time, Jeff has worked with many of the leaders on my team. We have enjoyed much growth in our thinking, decision making, and overall corporate performance. I can't recommend Jeff enough! You can count on Jeff being thoughtful, thorough, creative, and both strategic and tactical at the same time. Chances are he's been where you are and can help you get to the next step.

Jeff listens to your needs. He made my business more efficient with less stress! The systems he helped me put in place are genius. I take home twice as much money and work half as much. He knows how to help you make & save more money. I was a very mom & pop, paper receipt kind of girl… scared of computer spreadsheets, paperwork, taxes, & hiring someone to help. Jeff made it all easier, more organized, and calmed me down.

Jeff helped me to learn the difference between managing my business to becoming an entrepreneur. I went from a solo psychotherapy practice, to running The Center for Well-Being, a wellness leasing company, owning Aesthetics 360 Face and Body Center, with 9 employees focused on helping people look and feel their best, and added a therapist to my psychotherapy practice. I'm now a full Entrepreneur!! Thank you, Jeff, highly recommend his straight forward, challenging approach to help you achieve your goals.

I met Jeff at the pivotal point as I was going through a major transition in my personal and professional life. Over seven months, Jeff created a healthy balance between coaching, mentoring, and teaching me about important aspects of starting and successfully running my business. He provided a valuable objective point of view and reference while empowering me to make solid decisions as I tackled competing priorities and challenges. Jeff’s vast knowledge and expertise were invaluable when I needed sound advice, education, and a structured process to guide me in making steps forward in my personal in professional life. I would highly recommend Jeff as a business coach and mentor.

When I started working with Jeff, I struggled to find clarity in how I wanted to proceed with my coaching practice. I wanted to teach young adults how to think critically. Jeff displayed the ability to ask just the right questions at the right times, which made me reflect and think about what choices worked best for me. Since my time working with Jeff, I have developed a comprehensive program that will have a major impact on my clients. Jeff used his business knowledge and experience, while also allowing me to create my own ideas within a productive coaching framework. Jeff is extremely warm and is genuinely helpful and knows just how to motivate me.

Jeff is a fantastic coach. He took the time to learn how my business operates and then systematically addressed each issue to improve it. Since working with him my business runs smoother and I feel much more confident working with new clients.

Jeff is an awesome business coach. He helped me get my business back on track, and then helped with the new business I was trying to start. He helped me understand some of the smaller details that I never took into consideration when growing a business. 🙂

Having Jeff as a business coach was a refreshing change from the stereotypical “business development consultants” who seem to want to direct clients along a “one size fits all” path to improvement. While his coaching style was always conversational and easy-going; he knew exactly the right questions to ask, and how to direct our discussions in order to quickly get to the heart of the matter and to put me on track – not only so that I could more quickly identify my personal roadblocks – but also to allow me to define my own unique solutions. Thank you so much!

I was feeling stuck and in a downward spiral with a recent accumulation of disappointing events. Jeff helped me to better center myself through focus on daily intention setting. Jeff used powerful and thought-provoking questions and guidance to move me into action quickly and confidently. I found that I could really focus on the few important outcomes I was striving for and break them down to digestible daily steps so that I could accomplish them. This feeling of accomplishment budded and bloomed into a positive upward spiral to elevate me out of my funk.

Jeff has been a great resource for me to get my coaching business started. He really helped me get through some tough times when work wasn’t going well. I continue to keep in perspective the positive energy he encouraged me to focus on when dealing with those challenges. He is great at helping people create a vision for their business. I would definitely recommend him as a coach to work with if you are starting your own business. We often get caught up in our emotions when making a big decision like this. Jeff has a way about him that helps to create clarity and rationale to minimize the emotional strain that can cloud our judgement.

Being an entrepreneur has always been my passion. Any extra education or thought process came from personal experience, self help books, cd’s or the internet. Once I decided to get a business coach, I skipped several people and chose Jeff. His background in business and being a Christian made my decision much easier. I have come to know him and found he is a man of great moral character. He understands the business world and the people it takes to run them. I’ve learned a different and better way to approach my challenges in business and in life. Thank you Jeff for teaching me a new way to improve myself and my business.

I hired Jeff to help me move from a top producing salesperson to the position of sales management. Through his coaching, he showed me a path to success. Since engaging Jeff, I have referred more than ten people to him for his coaching services. If you are thinking about adding a coach, I strongly recommend you reach out to Mr. Schuster. His energy assessment tool is simply amazing and can help you figure out what changes or moves you need to make to create your dream life.

I began working with Jeff when my business was still in its infancy stages. Through consulting with Jeff, I was able to see beyond the hectic day to day tasks and develop a future-focused lens for my business. As the result of Jeff’s patient and knowledgeable support, I am now proactively planning for growth rather than reacting to constantly changing conditions. I strongly recommend Jeff to anyone who is looking to grow their business or to help more closely synchronize personal and professional goals.
