What is GrowthClub?
If you’ve ever had that feeling of time slipping by too quickly, of not making enough progress in your business or simply feeling on the verge of being over-whelmed by the list of things you could work on – you’re experiencing the symptoms of a lack of strategic thinking and planning.
Once a quarter our team of coaches host an in-person community event for our clients to step away from their businesses to think, review, learn, problem-solve, set goals and plan.
The end result is a clear, personal plan of action for the coming quarter, for every business in the room.
And we’d like you to join us.
What structure / approach do you follow for GrowthClub?
When you look beneath the terminology, most short-term business strategy and planning options follow the same basic process:
- Where do you want to get to?
- Where are you now?
- What’s stopping you?
Within this, our approach is to make sure that you are in the driving seat, because we’re not the stars of the show – you are.
The coaching team facilitate the day, but we are keenly aware of the value you get from hearing from fellow business owners and peer-to-peer learning and support.
We give you the platform to share your successes and challenges so that your experiences can benefit others just as you will learn from them.
And the coaches are there to fill in the gaps and keep things on track.
How would a quarterly business plan help me?
Business plans have got a bit of a bad name – and that’s fair enough.
Most business owners only use them to secure funding and once that’s in the bag, the plan goes in the bin.
That’s a shame because even at a superficial level, setting clear goals and targets that make sense for you, your business and team – and then keeping them visible through the quarter – will accelerate your results.
But of course we all know that life gets in the way of best intentions.
Or as Mike Tyson put it: “Everyone’s got a plan till they get punched in the face” – and many use this as justification for not planning their business futures at all.
The real value and benefit of business strategy and planning is not to perfectly predict the future – none of us can do that – it lies in the process of planning.
The act of taking quality time away from the noise and distractions of your day-to-day business and really think, helps you clear your head, focus on what matters, see where you need more knowledge and commit to taking action.
And all this in the company of 60-70 like-minded fellow business owners and 4 expert coaches in a fabulous location.
