In this modern world you can find all the resources you need on Youtube or from AI to complete tasks like this. You don’t need a coach for that.

The need for a coach comes when you realize that you have created layers of overwhelm for yourself. You already know that you “should” be focused on the most important aspects and tasks – but you either cannot determine what they are, or you just do not have the time to get to doing them.

Or you do them once, then not again. Then you remember and feel a bit dense.

And you get caught up in the DRAMAs that business creates constantly. And you get to the end of your day and week and you are exhausted, yet unfulfilled. You are running on willpower, not on enthusiasm, which means you may tend to become a little “tetchy” or “short fused”. You might even find yourself looking at Seek jobs with a salary and holidays and sick leave and big super.

Just like learning to swim, you can get the info from youtube. But when you want to do better than emergency side-stroke to the side of the pool, you get a coach. Then you put your resources into the best leveraged path away from being a sh1t business operator owner.
