This workshop will be held at the Hampton Inn by Hilton N/Convention Center at 1204 Berryville Avenue in Winchester. The workshop will begin with Rene Hollebrandse, CEO of MASS and Cort Maddox of Silver Line Coaching discussing the TOP 5 questions every business owner should be able to answer!

Mid-Atlantic Strategic Services is the leading business coaching company in the Shenandoah Valley. Hollebrandse has re-written the entire coaching methodology because of all the new insights in marketing and training. The result is the Triple Triad system, which will be introduced at this workshop.

So why a business coach? – “If you are struggling with your business or your business has your personal life out of control, then consider hiring a business coach,” says Maddox of Silver Line Coaching. Business coaching as an industry is growing about 5% a year making it one of the fastest growing industries. “Just as a an athlete will not rely on only himself to become great but searches for the best coach one can find, so a successful business owner recognizes the need for a good business coach.” quotes Hollebrandse.

Testimonials:

“There are truly no words to describe the impact that Rene’s coaching had upon me and my business. Without Rene’s insight I dare say MPR would not be where it is today. With his guidance, Rene challenge me to examine some of my long-standing beliefs and business practices. I could never enumerate the vast changes that we’ve made at our firm but I can share the most meaningful.,” said Angela Duncan.

“Through Rene’s coaching, MarketPlace REALTY has established Mission, Vision and Core Value statements that guide our every decision and which our Team has embraced. As a result, we are a culture-rich environment with a strong sense of purpose and direction. I can only describe the vibe at MPR as magic and it has everything to do with the expert coaching that I, as Leader of MarketPlace REALTY, realizes through working with Rene Hollebrandse,” said Duncan.

“Like many, when I originally consulted with Rene I was hoping to make more money, in less time by expanding my business.  I stopped, thinking I had learned all that I needed.  Upon returning to Rene’s guidance I have seen my company and my goals grow exponentially.” Jim Ogletree, A+ Handyman, Inc
