Here at the NIIC and WEOC Women's Business Center, we’re passionate about entrepreneurs and small business owners. We thrive on providing resources and coaching solutions designed to meet our clients’ specific needs. That’s why we’re so excited to announce that we’re expanding our small business coaching services and team! In order to meet an ever-growing demand for these services, we’re making some important updates to our coaching process and pricing as we expand our team. To help place clients with the right services and coach, we’re offering two paths to individual coaching, with pricing options to match. Path #1 – Foundational Coaching. This path is ideal for those seeking business support for the first time. The foundational coaching includes an initial orientation meeting, where we’ll assess clients’ current situations and address their immediate needs. This initial, no-cost orientation meeting will be followed by two, free group coaching sessions, where we’ll focus on general marketing and financial information. Once clients complete this initial, foundational process, they are eligible for individual, one-on-one coaching sessions at a discounted rate. Path #2 – Direct-to-Coach. The direct-to-coach path is geared toward those who have a solid client base and are paying themselves consistently. Anyone looking to move straight to the individual, one-on-one coaching sessions can by-pass the foundational coaching. While these clients will pay full price for the sessions, we do offer a four-coaching session package at a discounted rate. Current clients will be able to receive one-on-one coaching at the discounted, pre-qualification rate. To get started, visit https://niic.net/wbc/
