Why ActionCOACH

For over 28 years we have given growth-minded leaders the tools they need to guide business owners to make more and work less. In doing this we have built a massive community of franchise owners who use these same tools to make more and work less for themselves.

ActionCOACH is the brand that started it all, pioneering the business coaching industry 28 years ago. As the world's largest and most successful business coaching company we continue to innovate and lead the way. What’s it worth to be a part of the #1 brand in the industry?

  • Start Earning Day One - Most new businesses take many months or even years to design and prove out their products, services, marketing, sales, websites, training, IT, systems, IP, team, and more. All of these components have been developed in our franchise so you can start making money on DAY ONE!

  • Fantastic ROI – Your ActionCOACH Firm delivers professional services that demand industry-leading professional fees. The industry-exclusive 17-week Guarantee that your Firm offers to your local marketplace leads to enviably high hourly rates (ask the Firm Owners yourself). Enjoy this AND low overhead, no inventory, no cost of goods sold, repeat clients, huge demand, and VERY low competition. Your business could become self-funding within a matter of months. Our Item 19, found in our Franchise Disclosure Document, is very impressive. Most business services franchises don’t have an Item 19. In addition, the ActionCOACH Firm you build could be run by a management team someday providing passive income and ultimately, a valuable asset to sell. The intellectual property you invest in will improve every aspect of your and your clients' businesses.
  • Be a Leader in Your Community – As an ActionCOACH Firm Owner you will be a trusted leader in your local business community working closely with other "movers and shakers".

Your four-week Foundation Pre-Training is a “Fundamentals of Our Franchise” program, followed by your in-person Induction & Certification Training at the global office. The third phase is your 90-Day Ramp Up Training where you work with your global trainer, accountability coach, and your training class through weekly webinars and calls to provide ongoing training & guidance on relevant topics, while you are building your coaching Firm’s client base through your Team.
  • Scalability – Each Firm Territory is designed to scale to multiple certified coaches who are employees of your Firm. Since the majority of the value your coaches bring to your clientele comes from the ActionCOACH Framework of thousands of proven tools & solutions, the preparation time per week is very low and your Firm’s coach utilization rate can approach 75%. This results in significant revenue per coach you employ. Additionally, many of our Firm franchise owners scale to multiple adjacent territories to multiply their profits, asset value and wealth.
  • Leave a Legacy and Make a Difference – by being an influencer to the influencers of the world – other business owners. We don’t just improve their businesses, we change their lives for the better, using their business as a vehicle to do so.
