May 14, 20256 min read

Businesses across various industries and sizes purchase business coaching to address a wide range of challenges and achieve specific goals.  In essence, businesses engage with the Elite Shedload Collective when they recognize a gap between their current state and their desired future and believe that Coach Millicent Brooks can provide the expertise, guidance, and accountability needed to bridge that gap – and, she can and does!

Here's an expansion on why Coaches or Consultants would seek a business coach, viewed through the lens of profit acceleration and marginal utility theory, featuring Coach Millicent and The ESC:

Why Coaches or Consultants Seek Business Coaching (Coach Millicent & The ESC) Through Profit Acceleration and Marginal Utility Theory:

  • Profit Acceleration - Scaling Impact and Revenue as Service-Based Businesses:

    • Refining Niche and Target Market for Higher Value Clients: Coach Millicent at The ESC helps coaches and consultants identify their most profitable niche and ideal client profile, allowing them to focus their marketing and service delivery for accelerated revenue growth with higher-paying clients.

    • Developing High-Ticket Programs and Packages: The ESC guides in creating premium service offerings that deliver significant value and command higher fees, accelerating revenue per client and overall profitability.

    • Optimizing Marketing and Sales Processes for Consistent Client Acquisition: Coach Millicent helps implement effective marketing strategies and streamlined sales processes to consistently attract and convert ideal clients, leading to predictable and accelerated revenue growth.

    • Leveraging Intellectual Property for Scalability: The ESC assists in productizing their expertise through courses, workshops, or digital products, allowing for leveraged income and accelerated reach beyond one-on-one client work.

    • Building Strategic Partnerships and Referral Networks: Coach Millicent helps coaches and consultants establish mutually beneficial relationships that generate a consistent flow of high-quality referrals, accelerating client acquisition.

  • Marginal Utility Theory - Maximizing the "Additional Benefit" for Expertise-Driven Businesses:

    • Objective Perspective on Their Own Business: The ESC provides an unbiased external viewpoint that coaches and consultants often lack when analyzing their own business, identifying blind spots and opportunities for significant improvement (high marginal utility in self-awareness and strategic clarity).

    • Expertise in Business Growth Strategies They May Not Specialize In: While skilled in their coaching or consulting domain, they may lack expertise in specific business areas like advanced marketing, sales funnel optimization, or financial management. Coach Millicent brings this complementary expertise (high marginal utility in filling skill gaps).

    • Accountability for Consistent Implementation: The ESC provides structure and accountability to ensure coaches and consultants consistently implement growth strategies, maximizing the return on their own efforts and investments (high marginal utility in driving action and results).

    • Overcoming Limiting Beliefs and Imposter Syndrome: Coach Millicent helps address personal and professional blocks that can hinder their business growth and pricing confidence, unlocking greater earning potential (high marginal utility in personal and professional breakthrough).

    • Developing Scalable Business Models Beyond Hourly Rates: The ESC guides in creating business models that aren't solely reliant on billable hours, allowing for leveraged income and greater financial freedom (high marginal utility in time and income decoupling).

    • Improving Time Management and Productivity for Business Development: Coach Millicent helps optimize their schedule and focus on high-impact business development activities, maximizing the marginal utility of their limited time.

    • Building a Stronger Personal Brand and Authority: The ESC assists in developing a powerful personal brand that attracts ideal clients and commands premium fees, increasing the marginal utility of their marketing efforts.

    • Navigating the Solopreneur Challenges and Isolation: Coach Millicent provides support and strategic guidance to overcome the unique challenges of running a solo business, fostering motivation and preventing burnout (high marginal utility in well-being and sustained effort).
