Business Case for Investment

Coaching aims to expand your personal capacity. It’s about identifying your sweet spot and developing a structure that supports you in utilizing your greatest strengths both on and off the job.

The 80/20 rule says that 80% of your results come from 20% of your activity. Coaching seeks to identify those high leveraged activities and supports you in delegating the rest.

An investment in yourself!
The big question is what is the lost opportunity cost, between where you operate now and your very best? If you play a pretty big game and have leverage through your business and other people, a small up tick in your personal capacity will pay the monthly coaching fee several times over.

For example, let’s say your income potential is $250,000/yr in your current business. If you currently operate at 75% of your potential, your lost opportunity cost is $62,500/year.

Given the average coaching fee of $600/month or $7,200 a year, you would have an opportunity to recapture $55,300. Let’s say the coaching helped you move from 75% to 85% of capacity. That 10% improvement represents $25,000 in income or a 243% return on investment. As you can see, your return on investment is driven largely by your potential.

So the big question to answer is: are you worth investing in?

Moreover, much of the benefits of coaching show up in non-monetary ways:
