About ActionCOACH
ActionCOACH is the world’s leading business coaching and training organisation. Founded in 1993 by entrepreneur and author, Brad Sugars, it now operates in more than 1000 offices in 26 countries.The ActionCOACH process is designed to give business owners assistance in the short term and long-term training through affordable 'mentoring'.
Our clients benefit from ActionCOACH’s world-class marketing and business development techniques, as well as from the most effective training methodologies available. We do not compromise on quality and we seek out products where we can add the most value.
Our appointed coaches will apply ActionCOACH’s own proprietary sales, marketing, and business management systems to clients’ businesses, showing their owners how to increase revenue and profit.
At the same time, clients will receive guidance on how to develop their business in a way that enables them to relax more, put in fewer hours, learn to actually enjoy being owners and eventually reach their long-term goals.
The role of the ActionCOACH will vary with the changing needs of the business and can range from marketing manager and sales director to trainingco-ordinator, mentor or simply confidant.
Our vision and principles
ActionCOACH’s vision is "World abundance through business re-education”.
We are a global team of highly committed and successful people, noted for our integrity and extremely positive outlooks. We all do our best to take a balanced view, to look at the whole picture and to be totally honest. Our business coaches subscribe to the organisation’s 14 Points of Culture.These ensure that anyone involved with the ActionCOACH team will benefit hugely from the experience and make it to where they aspire to be, whether this means achieving their personal goals or meeting the targets they set for themselves and their business.
Client size is less important to us than attitude. ActionCOACH clients, however large or small, look to us to help them reach their objectives through a relationship based squarely on a two-way commitment.
The types of client we have are constantly looking ahead. They are keen to learn and grow and want to participate as team members in the process of developing a people-centric organisation. In short, they are attracted to us because we:
- Understand the importance of people
- Believe that a company should be managed via a system
- Offer the most practical, easy-to-apply strategies for fast growth
- Mean what we say.
Our aim, through the process of business development, is to help people rekindle their freedom and passion.
Could you become an ActionCOACH franchisee?
Have you just left a challenging corporate position after years in the job? If so, you may be finding your change of circumstances difficult to handle. At the same time, looking ahead, you have options to consider: whether to take any job, even well below your competence level, to apply for a ‘real’ post again or to start a business, with all its attendant risks. Whichever way you jump, you will probably want to make best use of the maturity, experience and wisdom you’ve accumulated over time.
Alternatively, you could be at an earlier stage in your working life, possibly already a business coach, nervous about the growing lack of job security and feeling the urge to take more control of your destiny and create a more certain future for yourself. Perhaps you feel the time has come for you to break out of the corporate structure.
Whichever career crossroads you have reached, ActionCOACH will be particularly interested in you, if you:
- Are already in business coaching or are considering it as an option for the first time
- Are positive, and want to make a tangible difference to the success and lives of the people you work or live with
- Want to hone your coaching skills and enhance them to the highest possible level
- Wish to take control of your career and financial future.
Many of our existing coaches have in-depth business experience or are business owners in their own right. They know what it means to invest time, money and energy in a dream.
If this resonates with you, ActionCOACH will definitely want to talk to you. First, though, you owe yourself some answers to some basic questions:
- Do I want a business that I can own and build?
- Can a franchise help me find the success I need and eliminate the risks of being in business?
- Is business coaching really up my street?
- If it is, why choose an ActionCOACH franchise?
If, having answered these questions, you believe you will make a valuable addition and contribution to ActionCOACH’s Business Coaching Franchise, please contact us. We’d also like to hear from you if you’ve got a real instinct for business, or are just passionate about it, and can demonstrate that you will truly care about our clients and their businesses.
We’ll tell you all you need to know about the available franchises and how to acquire one, and then invite you join our executive coaching training programme. In no time you’ll be mentoring business owners, improving how they operate and helping them realise their own dreams.
Franchise training and support
Lack of support from the parent company is the principal concern of many new franchisees, according to The International Franchise Association. This is not the case with ActionCOACH.When you come to us, wanting to enter the world of business coaching, we train you on the specifics of how to improve a client’s business. Our courses help you to understand what a healthy business model looks like. We also teach you how to analyse and improve upon every type of existing business model. And because we work with many different kinds and sizes of company, your training prepares you to deal with any scenario you come across.

“ I entered Due Diligence in early 2007 and after completion went on training in the States in mid 07. I found training to be a very powerful experience, consolidating my expectations of the franchise. I, like many, have made friendships that I’m sure will endure a lifetime. To enter such an intense regime of study later in life was very hard, but truly rewarding. Post training was even tougher as I scrambled in the first few days to implement the vast array of change. It was at this point that the real power of Action and the support afforded by Neil, his wife Sally and the wider team, took on a whole new significance.
I had expected help but underestimated its abundance and the genuine concern they afforded me. The family experience in training is perhaps even more evident from the ML Team and my fellow coaches. Within 2 weeks of starting my practice I signed my first client, two more followed in quick succession. I may be one of the more fortunate coaches, but within 4 months I had 6 clients, banked £16,000 in a month and have within the last 8 weeks signed another 4 clients.
To date my clients love what I have done for them, I have many clients reporting that I am changing their lives! With all reporting staggering results, “Sales up 227%” “Profits increasing” “The impact (of coaching) has been truly amazing“ “ The coaching is great value for money” These are all contained in testimonials I’ve received from my clients.
I have had to work very very hard to establish my practice. Be prepared to work very long days during the initial establishment of your business. I am no longer sceptical about ActionCoach and, most importantly, nor are my clients. "

“Before we started working with our ActionCOACH, Mike McGuire, our business was good, but we didn’t really know why and we had no budgets, controls or plan to take the business forwards. I decided to work with Mike because I wanted to move the business up to the next level and didn’t know how to do this properly.
Since working with Mike we have made many changes. I spend a lot more time working ON the business now instead of IN it. We have controls, budgets and a plan to move forwards. This has given us direction and confidence. We now have a sound knowledge and understanding of our business, which is in great shape, and we are looking forward with confidence to the future.
Mike cares about YOUR business. He helps you to see your way ahead, to know what needs to be done and how to make things happen. He is there for you to help resolve issues and problems, and to celebrate results and wins. He is enthusiastic, encouraging and most of all knowledgeable. If someone asked me whether to work with Mike, I would say ‘DO IT’”.
