FRANCHISEFOCUS IN V ESTMENT: FROM £ 6 9,000 A secure career
Andrew Goldberg found the perfect fit for his skillset with ActionCOACH
National Security Agency. When the NSA ceased hiring, the young entrepreneur came over to the UK in 1998, working in sales for a decade before he decided to set up his own sales consultancy in Glasgow, supporting businesses on their management. “Like any new business, the first couple
A
of months were tough, but as soon as things started to get going, I only wanted more. I’d fully grasped the importance of leading a team, working hard, solving problems and how to handle customers. Franchising appealed to me as it meant I could work a franchise in partnership with my existing business.”
The appeal of business coaching Andrew started looking around for a franchise that would allow him to utilise his existing skills; once he’d discovered ActionCOACH’s values, he was eager to find out more. “My previous experience working within different businesses gave me the opportunity to see the benefits a business coach can bring to a company.” Andrew arranged to meet with
ActionCOACH to decide whether the franchise was the right fit for him. After the meeting, and conducting his own thorough due diligence, Andrew took his wife with him for the second meeting, at which they both agreed that this was the right opportunity for him. He was then ready for ActionCOACH University. “I flew out with very little expectation,
but once I arrived, it was a huge learning curve. The main objective of the training is to learn about the general principles for coaching someone to support business growth – we use these to grow our own franchise and our clients’ businesses too.

Building a profitable business “I’ve currently got 14 clients, for both group and one-to-one coaching. For the foreseeable future, I’m focusing on taking my business to the next level and the best way to do that is by helping my clients to success and impacting even more people in the surrounding communities.” Andrew takes part in ActionCOACH
events throughout the year. With events such as the Business Excellence Forum and over 70 days of support available, all franchise partners have the opportunity to get more out of their business. “We’re constantly learning new things.
Once a quarter, we have a member of the UK support team travel up to Scotland to hold a meeting – all of us Action Coaches up here attend. On a more personal level, the days out that ActionCOACH organises
are great. Fun is one of our 14 Points of Culture, so it’s important we practise what we preach.” Andrew’s participation and consistent monthly client income of over £30,000 qualify him to apply to become a global trainer and he is keen to give back to the network.
