“When working with a business coach there are three things that are paramount to a successful relationship: Personable, High Integrity and Results Oriented. Shane is all three of these. A successful business coach needs to understand the entire path of what businesses are going through, but also the mental and physical preparation that a business owner needs to understand to the core to move to the next level of their business. He does this all while being very personable and keeping things to an agenda but not to a hidden, I am going to sell you these 18 books and 21 classes, agenda.
I have and will continue to use Shane’s services to grow my business. I would recommend Shane to any other business owner.” February 23, 2009 - Reu Smith, CEO, rfi Marketing

"As a coach in the fitness industry, I know the value of a good coach. So when I started my business, I hoped to find a coach who could help me meet my business goals. After just a few weeks, I am feeling much more confident in my business planning, thanks to Shane's coaching. In the future I foresee returns on my coaching investment exceeding 100% or more.
Shane is clearly a dedicated professional whom I would highly recommend. His 15 years of experience coupled with a proven system, is the "fitness recipe" for business success. Whether you are just getting your business off the ground or if you have been in business for years, Shane will increase your confidence and help you point your energies in the right directions."

"It is with pleasure that I write this recommendation on behalf of Shane Siegfried. After ten years in business with good, steady growth, problems were starting to crop up because I couldn't keep all the balls in the air the way I was operating at the time. We had reached a crisis point where we had to make some changes in order to handle the next stage in the life of our business.
I was skeptical in the first session, and even complained that our meeting was taking me away from my "work". But in the course of the session, I realized that I was doing a lot of tasks that my staff could handle. I made one minor change to how we completed jobs that freed up nearly half my week to focus on the things that only I could do. Shane also gave me some reading that helped "shift my paradigm". By the second session I was seeing my business from a totally new and exciting perspective. Shane really focused me in on what I needed to do to get more organized and systemized, and how to tap into my long-range goals for motivation and to keep me on the right track.
By the third week, the coaching sessions had become the highlight and most important hour of my week. Three months into the program, I took on 2 more associates and all sorts of income-producing opportunities are opening up before me. If not for this program, I probably would not have been aware that they existed, because I was too busy working "in the business" rather than "on the business". Since I had time to learn more about trends in the industry and meet with people on the cutting edge of new technologies, I have changed directions and have tapped into a whole new, higher-margin source of customers as well as colleagues. Also, my staff is more empowered, and are rising to the challenges that they have been given. As they see my skills rising, they have more confidence in the future of our team, and this reflects in how they do their work and how they interact with our clients.
Looking back now, I was in danger of ruining the good reputation I had carefully built. Shane came along just at the right time, and I can't even describe the incredible impact he has had on my business. We are on track to double our revenue from last year, and I feel more in control of my time and the future of the business. I went on vacation last month without "taking my business with me" for the first time ever! I am receiving high praise from clients, competition and suppliers alike, and have more referral business than ever, while increasing our profit margin and decreasing the amount of time I spend working in the business.
I recommend Shane Siegfried to anyone who is serious about taking their business to the next level, while maintaining balance in the rest of their lives.
Thanks again Shane!" July 10, 2007 - Sam Case, 1st City Mortgage

I have been fortunate enough to work with Shane Siegfried for well over a year now. My first year with Shane in 2008 saw an explosive growth of 26% in gross income. I'm looking forward to seeing such growth in 2009 with the implementation of many of the ideas that have been born through our interaction.
I have participated in both his individual coaching as well as his group classes and highly recommend both methods. The individual weekly coaching sessions opened my eyes to my own potential as well as the potential of my business. Shane is exemplary at pushing me to obtain the goals I have set, even when the going seems to be a little tough....and the goals a bit murky. Individual coaching enables us to come up with a plan specific to my business while keeping me on track and accountable for doing the things I say I will do. Bumps and detours in the road don't phase Shane as he continues to keep me focused on my overall plan and remind me that "course corrections" are normal and necessary.
Group classes have brought another dimension to my individual coaching that has really made me dig deep and take a closer look at where my business is heading. I really enjoy the interaction and feedback of the group as they have a different view of my business and my strengths and weaknesses. I have enjoyed seeing my own business growth in this group as well as the "ah-ha" moments of the other participants. Participation in this group has been invaluable, and I look forward to continuing with the next session.
In short, I highly recommend Shane to any business in any phase of growth and development. Business coaching is not a "luxury" nor is it an "expense". Business coaching is an investment in your future and in the future health of your business and should be a line-item in your business budget. Take the time to meet with Shane....I promise you will be as impressed with his professionalism and knowledge as I have been. May 15, 2009 - Tracy A. Neighbors, Owner, Enchanted Threads Embroidery
