ActionCOACH Bury St Edmunds - Business Coaching for Growth - Bury Saint Edmunds

I wasn’t sure what to expect from a business coach at first, but I knew I needed help. I had hit a ceiling and was working crazy hours just to keep things going.

Then Martin came in. He introduced the right processes, gave me clarity, and helped me grow the business to a whole new level. Now I’ve built a team, and for the first time in a long time—I actually get my evenings back!

When we first joined Action Coach over two years ago, we wanted to grow our business, but we were already working long hours and did not really know where to start.
Martin has worked with us to make sure we have firm foundations in place and all the basics are covered. He has helped us put systems in place so that we can work more efficiently, freeing up more of our time to work on the business rather than in it.
We can see the positive changes in our business and in ourselves daily. With martins help over the past two years we have been able to open a showroom, take on staff and increase our turnover and profit.
Running your own business can sometimes be scary and lonely, especially when coming across new challenges. Having a business coach and mentor means that there is always someone there to help, weather it be Martin or one of his team. They all have a wealth of knowledge and a commitment to clients.
We have regular meetings with Martin and get to work with other likeminded business owners.
Martin has a unique way of challenging you, making you think outside of the box and see opportunities that you may never have seen before.
A massive thank you to Martin and the rest of your team for all your help. We would highly recommend you and look forward to our continued journey with you.

I have been working with Martin Bailey of Action coach Bury St Edmunds for over 18 months. His, input, help and advice has been really useful and helped my business develop important structures and standards that have been applied to support business growth. The advice aims to challenge and question which has in turn provided solutions and ideas that would not have been considered before. its also useful as you can chat with other like minded business owners to understand their challenges and successes. To your success....

I attended one of Martin's Webinars on mental strength and resilience for business owners. It was engaging and personal, with Martin and his team encouraging continual participation (something that is absent in much of the virtual world!) I have taken my key actions which I have implemented immediately, and already they are making a huge difference. I can highly recommend speaking with Martin to explore how he can help. Thanks again Martin, Jed and Victoria for you time and support

Where to start? Martin has SAVED our business, he's patient, kind and understanding. He has shown us that with small changes and small steps you can make huge differences. Like many limited companies covid nearly wiped us out but thanks to Martin we are now back in action! I can't recommend them enough.

It has been a while since I started the ActionCOACH journey with Martin. In this time, under his guidance and further to his clear no nonsense approach, both I and the business have significantly developed. We are more focused on our goals and can see the cause and effect of the actions we take. I am excited to see how we develop over the next few months and am confident that it will be a significant step forward.

Our Electrical Contracting business has been running since 2001, a natural development from Electrician to Business Owner. By the beginning of 2021 we realised we needed some 'business' education if we were to continue to successfully grow our turnover and our team. Flying by the seat of our pants was just not cutting it anymore & we were meeting ourselves coming backwards trying to 'do' and 'manage' but we had no idea how to go about changing this. We decided to take the plunge & engage with Martin Baille of Bury St Edmunds Action Coach. So far our learning journey has provided us the education & tools to understand our business. Where we are currently, what we would like to achieve by when, setting our financial forecasts & being able to measure if we are achieving these, getting in place test & measure processes to identify where our marketing budget needs to be targeted and how successful this is, how to manage our time to be the most productive and so much more. Most importantly for us has been learning the 'mind-set' of a business manager / owner rather than an operative within the business - we are not there yet but we are definitely heading in the right direction. The journey so far has been interesting, challenging & definitely an education. When we first started on this learning path, we'll be honest we were not totally convinced but as we go forward & we review what & how we have changed & developed since we started, with Martin's guidance we believe we are on the right path to continue to grow & develop our business to achieve our business goals and ultimately our personal dreams & most importantly achieving this whilst still maintaining a good work life balance with family along the way; who at the end of the day are our drivers for making this a success.
