Best business decision I ever made.
Jeff Smith has been my business coach for almost 5 years. Best business decision I ever made. The improvement of my financials are the best proof of Jeff’s value. Don’t hire another employee until you hire a business coach. And there is none better than Jeff Smith.”

There are many facets to the term we label success, and Jeff has helped me take action on more of those facets
A little history in my relationship with Jeff. We met in March, just before Covid-19 was a thing, I’ve been communicating with him at least once per week since then. He has become, what I think we both agree on, a non equity partner in my success. There are many facets to the term we label success, and Jeff has helped me take action on more of those facets than I could have imagined and realized on my own.

The thing that I appreciated the most was leaving each session with specific tools we could use to immediately improve our situation.
I own and manage a thriving photography business in the Atlanta area. I am 100% business guy. My business partner on the other hand is 100% artist. It’s easy to see where conflict could arise when you have two 50% owners that see the world very differently. We were both seeing more success than either of us had ever experienced but at the same time it brought new levels of conflict between us. I had used Jeff as a business coach for many years so I decided to seek his advice to find a solution. I was excited to find out the he had recently become certified as a Strategic Interventionalist and Life Coach and he was personally qualified to help. After working with Jeff for a couple of months, we have seen amazing progress. We have learned to take the time to understand the intention behind the other person’s actions before we react. The thing that I appreciated the most was leaving each session with specific tools we could use to immediately improve our situation. With Jeff’s help, we have been able to find ways to work together and the company continues to thrive.

Since we started coaching in 2010, we saw a 145% increase in Net Income in 2010 over the prior year and a 193% increase in Net Income in 2011 over 2010
Even after running a well-established successful business for over 30 years, I knew that we needed extra help. Jeff Smith has been phenomenal at coaching us. Since we started coaching in 2010, we saw a 145% increase in Net Income in 2010 over the prior year and a 193% increase in Net Income in 2011 over 2010, all after the expense of three new employees, paying myself a higher salary and our investment in coaching. The team implemented dozens of new strategies over the last year. Understanding the importance of testing and measuring enabled us to focus on strategies that work, rather than doing the same thing and expecting different results. We truly believe that education, strategies, details, focus and accountability always produce results. That is the only way your business can grow.
I’m glad that you are here to remind me of the wonderful things that are happening, and I would not have been able to do it without some Fantastic Coaching! I really need to be Celebrating being coached by Jeff Smith.
Working with Jeff as a Coach is a truly rewarding experience. Having Jeff as my coach is like having a partner with both knowledge and skills to not only turn our business around, but also guide it to the next level. I came into 2010 with a poor attitude after losing so much business in 2009. Jeff came on board in March 2010 and has helped us to cut our costs and turn around our sales to show a profit in a poor economy. He has brought about a complete attitude adjustment for me. Jeff is a great guy, an experienced corporate attorney, very knowledgeable, has plenty of resources to call on, and holds me accountable for what the company is doing. I would recommend him highly. I just cannot say enough. Imagine what Jeff could do for you and your business. I believe that coaching can improve any business if an owner is willing to work on the business.

Imagine what Jeff could do for you and your business. I believe that coaching can improve any business if an owner is willing to work on the business.
Jeff: I would like to take this opportunity to formally thank you for the tremendous level of dedication and service that you have provided since March of this year. I must admit, initially I was like other business owners who questioned the impact that a coach could have on their business. Despite my apprehensions, I was desperate – working an average of 15 hours per day I “IN” my business, haphazardly spending money on various marketing approaches without ever tracking the results, while never having a clear vision of where my company was headed.
Since coming aboard as my coach, you have guided and challenged me to address the major issues of my business in a well thought-out approach. I was totally unaware of how much time I was spending doing the work that I was paying others to do. Through the application of your advice and recommendations, I’ve been able to accomplish things that I never would have thought were possible such as: hire a bookkeeper, significantly reduce accounts receivable, reduce my working hours to 30 per week, and launch my first television commercial.As I watch many of my competitors close their doors due to lack of sales, just this past month, we reached the highest monthly sales volume that the company has ever achieved in the past 25 years of experience! This goes to show that with the right coach, any business can thrive even in tough economic times.
Even as I type this letter, I am amazed at all that has been accomplished in such a short period of time. I am extremely optimistic about all the wonderful things that are on the horizon for my company, and I look forward to working with you as you as you help me maneuver through the obstacles of entrepreneurship. Again, you have added unmatched value to my company while helping me to develop into a stronger leader. Thanks for all you have done and will do!

After less than a year of working with Jeff, I have been revitalized
A year ago I began working with Coach Jeff Smith. At the time, I had lost focus “on the business”, had poor relationships within my organization, had lost respect among team members and micromanaged my team. After less than a year of working with Jeff, I have been revitalized, regaining focus on the business while building positive relationships within and without the organization. Jeff has also helped me develop the leadership skills to coach my team rather than micromanaging it. Thank you Jeff!

Jeff is a terrific facilitator with a great deal of knowledge and expertise
Jeff Smith facilitated three all day Strategic Planning Sessions for Epsten Group. The sessions were unique in that they initially included management and several key employees but in the last session expanded to encompass more than 40 employees. Jeff was able to move from the smaller group of 12 to the larger group with ease and he did an admirable job of engaging all attendees.
One of his most notable accomplishments was his ability to bring our detail-oriented staff up to a high-level view of Epsten Group’s future expansion plans. He continued to reinforce this “big picture” view with enlightening exercises and group discussions.Jeff is a terrific facilitator with a great deal of knowledge and expertise. We would welcome the opportunity to work with him again.
