One of the most rewarding aspects of being an ActionCOACH is seeing the transformation your clients experience—not just in their businesses, but in their lives. But how do you ensure that your coaching actually delivers measurable results? For new and prospective franchise partners, this is a critical question: How will I help my clients improve and how do I know it will work?
The good news is that ActionCOACH has built a proven, structured methodology that consistently delivers results across thousands of businesses worldwide. It’s not about guesswork or one-size-fits-all advice. It’s about applying a framework that is both flexible and deeply rooted in core principles of growth, performance, and accountability.
In this article, we’ll walk through how the ActionCOACH system helps you guide clients to real, lasting results and how the structure makes it easier for you to coach with confidence.
Why This Question Matters
Results are the cornerstone of a successful coaching business. When your clients achieve tangible outcomes—like increased profits, better team performance, or more personal time—it validates your value and strengthens your reputation. It also drives retention, referrals, and fulfillment in your role as a coach.
But for many new coaches, there’s a natural concern: What if I don’t have all the answers? The truth is, you don’t have to. With the ActionCOACH system, you’re equipped with a clear framework, powerful tools, and ongoing support that allow you to deliver results, regardless of your client’s industry or stage of business.
The Six Steps to a Better Business
At the heart of your coaching delivery is the ActionCOACH "Six Steps to a Better Business" framework. This roadmap helps you take clients through a logical, results-focused journey that improves all areas of their business.
-
Mastery – Establish a foundation of stability in areas like cash flow, time management, and delivery consistency. Clients eliminate chaos and begin thinking more strategically.
-
Niche – Help clients define their unique selling proposition and build a predictable lead generation system. This is where marketing begins to drive consistent revenue.
-
Leverage – Introduce systems and automation to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and prepare for scale. Operations become smoother and more predictable.
-
Team – Focus on recruitment, culture, and leadership development. Your client begins building a business that isn’t dependent solely on them.
-
Synergy – Align the business structure and leadership team to enable long-term growth. Clients can delegate more and plan strategically.
-
Results – Support clients in achieving greater freedom, either through passive income, franchise development, or a business that runs independently.
Each step contains specific strategies, checklists, and benchmarks. You’re not making it up as you go—you’re walking clients through a proven journey with measurable outcomes at each stage.
Coaching with Education and Accountability
The structure of ActionCOACH coaching is built around three pillars: education, accountability, and implementation.
Your role is not only to advise but also to teach your clients new ways of thinking. Whether it's how to price their services, manage cash flow, or lead their team, you're guiding them through key concepts that drive results. You’ll use a library of prebuilt tools, exercises, and worksheets to support this process.
But education alone isn’t enough. Results come from implementation, and implementation happens when there’s accountability. Your clients commit to weekly or bi-weekly actions. You review progress together. You troubleshoot. You keep them focused when distractions arise.
This rhythm creates momentum. Clients begin to stack wins. They build confidence. And their businesses start to reflect the structure and systems they’re putting in place.
Leveraging the 5 Ways to Profit Model
One of the most effective tools you’ll use with clients is the "5 Ways to Grow Profits" model. It breaks down profit growth into five clear variables:
-
Lead generation
-
Conversion rate
-
Average transaction value
-
Number of transactions
-
Profit margins
Small improvements in each area lead to exponential growth in overall profitability. This model is one of the most eye-opening and empowering tools for business owners—and as their coach, you’ll walk them through each metric, identify bottlenecks, and track improvements over time.
Clients love this model because it simplifies complexity. You’re not just saying, “Let’s grow your business.” You’re showing them how, and measuring the results along the way.
It’s also a model that gets buy-in fast because clients can see, in real numbers, what small changes can do to their bottom line. It creates motivation and action, which are essential to long-term change.
Tools That Drive Consistency
To support your coaching sessions, ActionCOACH gives you access to a wide array of diagnostic tools, session templates, planning resources, and content libraries. These aren’t generic downloads—they’re built specifically to support business transformation.
You’ll use tools like:
-
Business health checks and diagnostics
-
90-day planning frameworks
-
Workshop and webinar kits
-
Coaching session outlines and follow-up systems
This makes your delivery more consistent, your sessions more impactful, and your clients’ experience more structured. You’re not just coaching from intuition—you’re coaching with a plan.
Results Beyond Business Metrics
While your clients will certainly see improvements in revenue, profit, and efficiency, the impact often goes far deeper. Many clients report having more time with family, improved health, greater clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose.
That’s because ActionCOACH doesn’t just help people grow their businesses—it helps them grow as leaders, communicators, and decision-makers. As their coach, you’ll play a key role in guiding that personal transformation.
Clients often describe their ActionCOACH as a trusted advisor, a sounding board, and a partner in growth. The results you help them achieve will extend beyond spreadsheets and into their confidence, freedom, and vision for the future.
These life-changing results are why ActionCOACH coaches consistently receive referrals, renewals, and long-term loyalty from their clients. It’s a business built on relationships, and those relationships are built on trust and consistent outcomes.
Structure That Delivers Results
Getting results as a business coach doesn’t come from guesswork—it comes from following a tested system that’s been proven worldwide. With the Six Steps framework, powerful coaching tools, and a strong foundation of accountability, you’ll be able to lead your clients through meaningful, measurable change.
