Client Testimonials & Success Stories

From: John Kingsmill

Kingsmill Fine Custom Plasters & Specialty Wall Finishes

I have been in business for 26 years and for the first time found a coach that actually knows what it takes “on the ground” for real success.

 

Following the guidance and doing my “homework” for the past 9 months has resulted in achieving the success here in California I have been seeking for the past 9 years and, we have much to do in the next 6 months before our next level of expansion… beyond what I had previously thought possible.

 

My SSB Coach, not only dedicates real time, often at short notice, but further, truly cares about what’s happening with my business as if it were his own…and that’s real!

 

Smarter Small Business is not the first coaching company I have had over the past 17 years but is the first one that has shown me and led me, step by step, to what is really involved in achieving success in my business.

 

I truly recommend SSB as real ‘top of the heap’ pros because I am so excited with the impact they have on me financially, professionally and personally.

 

Yours truly.

Highest Potential Training

I wanted to write and thank you for the coaching and guidance you have given me over the past six months. You have supported me in so many ways where now I feel I have clear direction and focus in my company. I know who I am, who my target market is and where I am going. You were able to take what seemed to be three individual businesses and weave them together into a coherent corporate image and in so doing provide me with the confidence to move forward.

 

I appreciate your prompt responses to my email and my telephone messages. Even though I know you have many clients you always make me feel like I am the “only one” when you work with me.

 

Best regards,

Monique Gallagher

College Filer

 

I felt like I was that pinball inside a pinball machine, bouncing off the rubber bumpers… and bruising myself at every attempt!

 

This is how I describe to friends what it was like to try and launch my product, College Filer, entirely on my own. Looking back six months ago, it seems so obvious. My background in finance and product development could not equip me in any way to succeed in marketing and sales. Somehow it was all supposed to magically happen…but it didn’t and I felt bruised and deeply discouraged.

 

Fortunately, my story doesn’t end there. A good friend put me on to Smarter Small Business because he had used their coaching services himself. Could I trust his glowing testimonial of the difference they made to his company? Was there “real help” for this battered pinball? I decided to find out.

 

Now, with several months of coaching behind me, and a bright future laid out before me, I can say – with complete certainty – YES! YES, my friend could be believed! YES, there is a ton of help to be had, especially in my weakest areas of marketing and sales. And YES, you also should stop bruising yourself and begin using the amazing coaching services of Smarter Small Business.
