With the year slowly drawing to a close, we are still as busy as ever!
From internal successes and outstanding client recommendations to hosting a wide range of educational workshops, everyone here at ActionCOACH Portsmouth has been busy!
Find out why below:
Sarah’s Wins
Congratulations are once again in order for our lead business coach, Sarah Williams.
In October, some of our team headed up to Solihull for ActionCOACH UK’s conference and awards evening.
We’re proud to announce that Sarah has won another award for Best Client Rating 2024 after achieving outstanding results with her clients here at ActionCOACH Portsmouth & Chichester.
Sarah’s clients have previously said: “Sarah has been working with us in one-on-one meetings and has helped us solidify the foundations of the business and create a clear vision of our future goals.” and “We couldn’t have managed it without the support of Sarah and her expertise.”

Do Our Clients Recommend Us?
The answer is YES!
In October, we received our survey results from ActionCOACH UK’s head office.
As expected, we received an outstanding result, with a 100% recommendation rate from everyone who participated in the survey.
The results show our services have made a positive difference to our clients’ businesses and are worth the investment.
Business coaching is a powerful tool, allowing you to bring in an outsourced business expert to analyse your business from a fresh perspective. This new perspective opens up opportunities for new ideas, improved operations, new job roles, and strategies that ultimately strengthen your business and profits.
If you’ve been considering business coaching, we’d love to have a chat. We can also offer you a complimentary coaching session.

Last few workshops of 2024!
In October, we held our final two free workshops for the year!
We hosted our Value Builder workshop at the Portsmouth Marriott Hotel, welcoming businesses from across Hampshire and West Sussex to learn how to increase the value of their business. Some of these businesses were well-established and planning for exit, while others were brand new. Each attendee left with fresh ideas, an understanding of the importance of continuous growth throughout the business journey, and insight into why it’s crucial to make the business function without YOU.
As part of the event, we used our available tools to give each business a rough valuation, and attendees left with a roadmap for increasing the value of their business and taking it to the next level.
Alongside Value Builder, we also hosted the 6 Steps to a More Profitable Business workshop. Here, we shared strategies with a variety of businesses on how to build a successful operation.
Many businesses start with little formal business education, so this workshop covered essentials like planning, financial forecasting, and team management.
At 6 Steps, we covered everything you need to ensure your business is running effectively and profitably, sharing knowledge from our industry-leading business coaches with extensive backgrounds in business growth.
With 2024 winding down, we only have two more events left: Annual Planning on 14th November, in partnership with HSBC Bank, and GrowthCLUB on 18th December.
Both events provide an opportunity to work on your business, with planning sessions throughout the day and multiple workshops to help you learn new skills.

Our 2025 diary will be announced shortly.
Annual Planning
Our Annual Planning workshop is just a week away!
In partnership with HSBC, we’re once again hosting this workshop to give our clients and other local businesses the chance to plan for the year ahead.
By attending, you’ll work alongside our industry-leading business coaches and incorporate your new insights from the day into your annual plan.
Business planning is a MUST when running a business. It allows you to set goals and create milestones throughout the year. For your employees, it provides a clear vision of what they’re working towards. And if you’re seeking investment, showing a bank or investor your upcoming plans can have a significant positive impact on their decision.
We still have a few tickets available for Annual Planning, which can be purchased here.
Shaping Portsmouth
In October, ActionCOACH Portsmouth and Chichester partnered with Shaping Portsmouth, a local charity.
Together, we’ve created a special group programme for local businesses, providing additional support to help them grow.
At ActionCOACH Portsmouth and Chichester, we know the importance of supporting local businesses to help them thrive and to contribute positively to our local economy.
Working closely with Shaping Portsmouth has enabled us to showcase our services to more local businesses and demonstrate the importance of investing in yourself and your business.
We look forward to our next session with the group in November and to continuing our partnership with Shaping Portsmouth.
