Franchising

"Before I joined OneCoach, I felt rudderless. Thanks to OneCoach, I went intoaggressive action, surrounding myself with people who are motivators, encouragers,trend-setters. I stretched myself by learning from them. It's like working out atthe gym. If you curl only 15 pounds, eventually you're going to curl 115."

FAQ

Who is OneCoach?

Founded in 2005, OneCoach is the world's largest franchisor of business-growth services. Internationally, OneCoach maintains more than 1,300 contracts with business owners and influences more than 3,900 employees worldwide. It has franchising opportunities in more than 120 territories in the Unites States and Canada.

OneCoach has developed a highly effective Business Growth Network™ that helps entrepreneurs gain the skills, strategies, and support their need to be successful in business.

Known for their business acumen, OneCoach Founders Murray Smith and John Assaraf created OneCoach drawing upon their years of experience.

Smith's expertise in business comes from building 13 of his own companies and providing consulting services to hundreds of other businesses. Meanwhile, Assaraf's expertise in brain research and quantum physics as they relate to business growth has led him to author a best-selling book and become a spokesperson on the topic in the national media, including the movie The Secret.

Assaraf and Smith befriended each other 25 years ago, and between them have led 17 successful companies. In addition to their thorough understanding of building successful companies, they share a passion for helping entrepreneurs, and are fulfilling that mission through OneCoach.

What is business coaching?

Every winner has a coach -- and top performers like Tiger Woods have several. While business is not a sport, it is competitive, and if you want to be at the top of your field, you need help.

A OneCoach Business Coach has one focus: helping you enhance your performance so you can increase your revenues and profits and live the life you've always wanted.

This is not life coaching. But you can't change a business without changing the business owner. Therefore, the focus is on you and your business.

We show members of the OneCoach Business Growth Network how to condition themselves for success, then we reinforce the business fundamentals (beginning with sales and marketing), and provide the accountability that helps you, the business owner, follow through and drive your business to the next level.

It works -- and you don't have to take our word for it. See our testimonials for real-life stories of how OneCoach has made an incredible difference for small-business owners in every kind of business, all over the world.

What do I do and what do I sell as a OneCoach Regional Owner?

As a OneCoach Regional Owner you are master franchisee, responsible for selling local franchises throughout your region.

The role is open to a select few. You may be a candidate if you have at least 10 years of high-level sales and marketing experience and you are seeking to build an asset for yourself. As a Regional Owner you sell business-growth franchises that help small-business owners succeed.

OneCoach enables you to:

  • Increase your assets
  • Create wealth for yourself, not someone else
  • Help others grow their businesses
  • Leverage your experience
  • Live an extraordinary life
  • Become more involved as a community leader
  • Leave a positive legacy

OneCoach brings the best value and price opportunity in the business-to-business franchise arena, and a unique and powerful business-growth services package that enables you to meet an explosive demand. We also deliver a tested system, proven processes and comprehensive support.

What do I do and what do I sell as a OneCoach Business Partner?

Your role as a Business Partner is to provide access to a Business Coach (it could be you, or someone you hire or contract with) to help the owners of small businesses get from where they are to where they want to be.

You're going to be able to provide them with a corporate-administered program that first and foremost, helps them start to do the things they should be doing, namely income-producing activities.

Who should become a OneCoach Business Partner?

If you have great sales skills and a passion for small business, you may be well-suited to the OneCoach opportunity. You should have at least five years of sales and marketing experience, and have experience as a manager and/or a small-business owner.

Then you provide them with the business and marketing fundamentals that will help them build multimillion-dollar businesses. And finally, the program provides the online and offline support that business owners need when they have questions or problems.

Your role is to market the program, and conduct the initial three 30-minute coaching and accountability calls to make sure your members are doing the things they should be doing, following the proven OneCoach process. You don't have to be a marketing or management genius to be successful. The OneCoach Business Growth Network has been designed to generate positive results in a way that's both effective for the client, and highly profitable for you. You're a Business Coach who specializes in helping small-business owners implement the proven and tested OneCoach system.

Why should I buy a OneCoach Business Growth Franchise?

Because it's today's hottest opportunity, targeting the huge and exploding market of small-business owners who need business-growth services.

And because you're ready. Perhaps your skills and talents aren't being used to your full potential, and now is the time to finally begin to build something great for yourself.

If you want an opportunity that taps into the single fastest-growing market available today, a market that's expected to double or even triple over the next 15 to 20 years, and you possess the right combination of skills and abilities -- then you should consider OneCoach.

If you want to be your own boss, set your own hours, and work when you want to work, with no employees to worry about, no logistical nightmares to contend with, and no business inventory to stock and maintain, then this opportunity might be for you.

You're looking for an opportunity that will have a major, positive impact on the lives of the people you come into contact with every day, allow you to use your wide range of skills and talents to their fullest potential, experience complete fulfillment in your life, both personally and professionally, and allow you to still make a great six-figure income, with tremendous upside potential to make substantially more than that.

In essence, you want a profitable business for you and your family, a proven and tested program that will result in more business, more money, and more life.

If this describes you, this is the opportunity you've been seeking.

What makes OneCoach unique or different?

Let's start with our history of success. Our co-founders, John Assaraf and Murray Smith, have personally built 17 companies and have helped more than 1,500 of their clients around the world grow theirs.

So we have a tradition of success behind us, and we have more and more business owners around the world joining together to share their knowledge, skills and enthusiasm with each other in the Business Growth Network.

But what really separates us from everyone else is this: We believe that you can't change the business without changing the mindset of the business owner.

That's why we've developed a proprietary business-growth process that combines the latest in quantum physics and neuroscience with state-of-the-art business-building strategies and tactics that teach business owners how to take their businesses to the next level.

This distinguishes OneCoach from all other coaching and business-growth organizations. Many coaching and consulting firms want to give business owners tons of information based on tactics and strategies to help them with their business. That's fine, except the typical business owner won't apply any of it.

The subconscious mind of the typical business owner hasn't been conditioned to accept this new information, and any change he or she tries to make takes them out of their "comfort zone." An individual MUST recondition his or her subconscious mind to accept and apply this new information before success can happen.

OneCoach can show you how to reset your financial thermostat, enabling you to double or triple your earning power and build a super-successful business.

The changes we make in the business owner's attitudes, as well as their thinking, are real and permanent. That's because the changes reach down into the deepest, most powerful, and most influential parts of their brain-rather than just temporarily altering conscious attitudes and thinking.

That is just some of what makes OneCoach unique.

How much do I need to invest up front?

The investment required to become a OneCoach Business Partner will depend upon the territory you select.

One you have determined your territory your initial outlay will include everything you'll need to jump-start and run your own OneCoach franchise. Your investment includes a comprehensive live training program that will teach you how to use the OneCoach system and how to sell your services to clients. You'll also get access to a powerful online library of sales, marketing, neuroscience and management fundamentals, as well as Expert Interviews from industry leaders that will enable you to learn how to be successful in both life and in business.

Like all businesses however, you may also need to have additional funds in reserve (which you're prepared to use - if the need arises) as working capital for additional marketing, networking and other general office set-up expenses.

Please contact OneCoach Corporate for current franchise costs and a copy of our Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).

What do I get for my money?

When you invest in a OneCoach franchise, you purchase the exclusive rights to offer membership in the OneCoach Business Growth Network to small-business owners in your territory. This provides you with all the assets of the OneCoach brand, including our events, growing workdwide network of business owners, and comprehensive business-growth products and services.

You'll also receive the support of OneCoach Corporate, your Regional Owner, and a network of other advisors with whom to share ideas, successes and experiences.

In short, you'll be getting a proven, turnkey business-growth system that has helped thousands of small-business owners all over the world grow their businesses faster.

How much cash will I need?

This depends largely on your own personal skills, expenses, needs and goals - and how big or how quickly you'd like your business to grow. However, as a general rule, you should arrange to have access to working capital to fund the initial cash flow requirements of your business, to set up your office and communications requirements, and to fund any travel expenses.

What kind of training do I receive?

For starters, you'll be expected to participate in an online training program before attending our intensive on-site training at OneCoach headquarters in San Diego. There, you'll be provided with all the tools and the knowledge required to have a dramatic impact on your clients' businesses - and on your life as well.

What level of ongoing training do I get?

Your initial OneCoach training is only the beginning of your journey. As part of the worldwide OneCoach family, you'll be exposed to wealth of knowledge shared by members, business partners and the OneCoach corporate team. We see learning as a never-ending process, and we provide a steady stream of multi-modal learning materials, including reading selections, recorded interviews, seminars, workshops, conferences and Internet-based training.

By the time you start as a Business Coach, you will have mastered one of the most powerful business-growth programs available anywhere today. You'll know the keys to multiplying business profits and generating wealth. You'll be fully equipped to achieve sensational results that will amaze your clients.

What level of support do I get?

The OneCoach two-tiered administration and support system provides our franchisees with the best of both worlds. OneCoach Corporate is responsible for the overall administration, direction, development and marketing of the Business Growth Network, while your Regional Owner will provide initial and ongoing support and guidance. Rest assured that help is never far away.

So, how do I make money as a OneCoach Business Partner?

Your main income stream will be through selling access to the Business Growth Network. This provides you with an ongoing residual monthly revenue stream.

Additionally, you have a selection of OneCoach "plus services," such as additional one-on-one coaching hours that your clients can purchase. Business Coaches keep 90 percent of all revenue they generate from the "plus services" they provide for their clients.

With a proven business-growth system to sell, you'll find that your earning potential is limited only by your enthusiasm and effort.

Do I need a consulting or coaching background?

It's not necessary to have extensive experience in coaching or consulting to succeed as a OneCoach Business Partner. However, a strong business background is a must. If you've owned or managed a business before, or if you have a solid background in sales, then this is probably the business for you. You'll need a sound understanding of business principles, an entrepreneurial spirit, the right attitude, and a healthy reserve of motivation. We'll be looking for how much passion you have for helping others, and the amount of drive you have to succeed in your own business.

Who will be my target clients?

It's hard to think of a small business that would not benefit in some way from OneCoach services.

Most business owners are entrepreneurs and professionals who are looking for a proven and tested system that can generate more growth and more profit. They need more time, and the ability to be more productive. This is what we provide to our clients through access to the Business Growth Network.

It's easier to say who won't be your target client. The answer to that is that there are six levels of business development:

  • concept
  • start-up
  • growing
  • stuck
  • in trouble
  • exiting

We don't deal with concept or exiting businesses. They don't fit our ideal client profile. But every other small business can benefit from membership in the Business Growth Network.

Why will business owners want me as a Business Coach?

Everyone knows and accepts that sport stars need coaches and advisors. Tiger Woods has several. Without them, he simply wouldn't succeed. So what is it about business people? Why don't they have coaches?

More business owners realize that in today's fast-paced business environment, there's absolutely no way they can stay on top of the latest developments, let alone stay ahead of them. Having a business coach has become mandatory, at least to those serious about success.

Furthermore, business owners find it all but impossible to be objective themselves. A business coach can get them to focus on their highest income-producing activities, and will get them to do the things they should be doing. A business coach will tell the business owner what's going on in their business without getting emotional about it. As a trusted coach and advisor, you'll be the business owner's mentor, confidante, counselor and sounding board... all rolled into one.

More and more business owners are discovering that, while they might survive without a business coach, it's nearly impossible to thrive without one.

No other business coaching firm focuses on the business owner and the business, as OneCoach does. We help the business owner recondition the brain for success, and combine that with proven startegies and tactics in business fundamentals.

It's a combination that can help any business owner achieve success faster and with less effort. And that's why they'll want you as their coach.

What are the keys to my success as a Coach?

A successful OneCoach Business Partner is results-driven, motivated and willing to follow the system. Our leading franchisees not only run a highly profitable business and have exceptional client relationships; they also contribute to the growth and economic development of their communities. Surveys show that there are many traits that promote the success of a franchisee:

  • an eagerness to learn and a desire to help others
  • a willingness to work long hours to get the momentum going
  • good relationship-building skills
  • sales ability and a willingness to learn and apply sales systems
  • solid self-discipline and family support
  • an ability to take direction when needed
  • a willingness to read and study
  • having money in reserve and the willingness to invest it if necessary
  • a willingness to take risks, and ask for help when needed
  • being well-organized and a good planner

Common reasons for failure in any franchise endeavor include:

  • not following the system
  • not working hard enough or not doing enough marketing
  • going ahead despite family opposition
  • spending money before earning it
  • a dislike for selling to other business people
  • a lack of self-discipline to cope with the responsibility of owning a small business
  • being under-funded and misleading the franchisor on the amount of funds available
How many hours will I work ... and should I employ anyone?

As with all new entrepreneurial ventures, the first 12 months will be the hardest, not because of the amount of work you'll do, but because the work will be different. The learning curve that our franchisees go through is steep - we can guarantee that you'll learn more about small business as a OneCoach Business Partner in the first 12-18 months than you'll learn anywhere else.

As a trainee, you'll become a sponge, soaking up information from every source - be it other business coaches, books, seminars, phone calls or from personal experiences... you'll want to know more about everything - which means you'll be VERY busy.

Being a new business coach means you'll be trying out all our different sales and marketing strategies, and finding the strategies that work best for you.

So even though initially you'll be spending at least 25 hours per week marketing, selling and gaining knowledge, you'll find that as your business grows, you can divide your time more evenly between marketing and delivery. This should see you working between 40 to 60 hours a week in the first year.

We do recommend however, that when you have between 40 to 50 clients, you may elect to hire a personal assistant so you can leverage your time more effectively. At this point you'll start to choose the hours of work that suit you, your clients and your prospects.

As you settle into your new business, you should be working around 30 minutes per month per client with that time spent on client management.

Can I work at home?

When you start up, we recommend working from your home with a separate space designated for your business. You need to be able to lock yourself away, and then lock up and switch off the light at night. When your business has grown, you may wish to take advantage of an office environment or your own office suite.

A unique aspect of the OneCoach process is that most of your client consultations can be done over the phone. Therefore, you don't have to waste much of your valuable coaching time traveling to and from your clients' place of business. This leaves you more time to work with your clients and to earn more income without taking away your family or leisure time.

What is my territory?

You can offer access to the Business Growth Network to business owners located anywhere within your assigned and protected territory. No other coaches are permitted to market or acquire clients in your assigned territory.

The size of the territory generally covers a population of 100,000 up to 1 million. In practice, most of your clients will be within 20 driving minutes of your office and most of your work with clients will be via phone, fax, and e-mail.
