Coaching Reviews
Some of the People Who Have Been Coached by Clint:
“Over the past 12 months of coaching – our sales have increased 25%, and our profits are up a staggering 40%. This takes into account increasing the size of our team, which has allowed me to regain my life at home. I see my family more than I have in years. I’m enjoying life again. We’ve also moved into new offices, which makes it a lot more enjoyable to come to work. Your coaching really works.”
Greg Bauer – Navigator Multimedia
“Since working with Clint Best I have seen growth I have never seen before. After only 5 months we have a 20%+ increase in sales with a higher gross and net profit.”
Richard Pierson – JC Bradley Jewelers
“After years in business I was still unsatisfied with our companies overall profitability. I needed to make some changes and find a way to maximize sales and have the business run smoothly.It is virtually impossible to describe how satisfied I am in the service Kaizen has provided. All of our business procedures continue to improve daily and profitability has increased such that the business coaching services have paid for themselves many times over. There seems to be no end to the knowledge we are gaining and I am looking forward to continuing with Kaizen for the foreseeable future.”
Mike Ohman – Beyond Audio
“I cannot say enough good things about working with Clint. Whether working with him individually, as part of our management team or during our company alignment days, Clint is can always be relied on for insightful and helpful observations and suggestions. I freely admit that I was skeptical of the whole ‘business coaching’ idea at first and figured there were more than enough books and CD’s available for me to develop any plans or strategies I might need. I could not have been more wrong. Clint’s highly effective programs are delivered with structure and impact, and equip individuals and companies with solid techniques and skills that can be applied immediately to increase personal and organizational effectiveness. Our turnover has improved, our profit increased and our company expanded; thanks in no small part to the knowledge gained through working with Clint. I have been personally and professionally inspired by working with Clint. Every session reveals more essential skills and techniques that have an immediate impact on short term strategies, long term goals and the company bottom line. I look forward to continuing our working relationship.”
Barrie Morse – Power Concepts
“I had thought about coaching for about a year previous to when we started working with Kaizen; however, I wasn’t really sure what I could gain from it until I got to the point where I felt like I had run into a wall and didn’t know what to do next.Immediately with the help of Clint I was able to document where I was at and where I wanted to be and put together a plan of how I was going to get there. Finally we started moving forward. With the help of Kaizen, I came to the realization that I was not alone, but in fact every business that has ever existed has probably dealt with the same problems I had. I would recommend coaching to any small business that wants to succeed long term.”
Rob Ducharme – Ducharme Landscapes
“We’ve been working with Clint for 3 months and we’ve already achieved our initial goal of expanding our capacity by 30%. We’ve filled it with more profitable work as well. I have to admit, when Clint asked me to trust in the process I was willing but a little skeptical. Not anymore. Clint has helped me free up a good chunk of my time and we’ve begun looking for a replacement for all my technical work so I can concentrate on higher level activities. The team is communicating, and sharing ideas like we never have before. We’re very excited about the coming year.”
Tom Gilbert – TGC Consulting
“Before we took the ‘leap of faith,’ we thought we might not be able to afford coaching. Kaizen paid for themselves in the first couple of months and have helped us nearly triple our sales and profits.”
Brenda and Crystal Woods – Bliss Bridal
“Our sales have doubled this past year and we have a realistic plan for them to double again this coming year. Clint helped us to completely overhaul our pricing and profit systems – so we actually make money we never believed we could. We’re not sure what we would have done if Clint hadn’t come along when he did. We recommend Clint’s coaching without hesitation.”
Chris and Julie Leoppky – Epic Sundecks
“Thank you again for all your work with Wade and I. I think you have an excellent grasp on how to run a business and how to push our company and our management to a new level.”
Wade Webb and Francis Braam – Royal LePage Kelowna
“We are very happy with the results of our business coaching experience.We were introduced to many valuable tools to take our business to the next level. Immediate results were seen by working on a few subjects such as goal setting, systemization and communication skills. We continue to work with these tools to achieve our personal and business goals. We would recommend this program to anyone who wants to own or be part of a healthy and successful business.”
Valerie Thompson – Kimco Controls
“I have had the privilege of working with Clint for approximately 15 months. I approached Clint for assistance in ‘fixing’ my business as he was highly recommended by a colleague. I knew immediately that I would be able to work well with Clint as he was very approachable and, I sensed, trustworthy.
Prior to working with Clint, our business was in need of a complete make-over. We were able to accomplish many things, such as:
- Implementing policies and procedures
- Organizational charts for staff
- Job descriptions for key positions
- Systematizing sales procedures
- Goal setting
- Price setting
- Budgets and Forecasts
and much, much more. Clint also worked with staff members and created a strong team environment. We all looked forward to our sessions with Clint and after each session we felt renewed energy and optimism.
I would highly recommend Clint to any business owner/manager in need of some professional guidance.”
Cassandra Tompkins – The Women’s Place Fitness Group
I am thankful for the opportunity to have worked with Clint and KBD Kelowna. Reviewing my notes from this past year, it is very satisfying to look back at the progress that has clearly taken place in so many areas of our business. Throughout the coaching process there were continual discoveries of areas that needed refinement and improvement. The systems, methods, thought processes, disciplines and reshaped priorities that I’ve been able to discover through the coaching are unmistakably woven into our companies, and I am confident our improved foundation will lead to increasing successes in the years ahead.
