What You’ll Deliver: The 6 Steps to Business Mastery (ABoS)
You don’t need to create your own coaching program. ActionCOACH gives you a world-class methodology — the 6 Steps to a Commercial, Profitable Enterprise That Works Without the Owner — with built-in ROI, which makes it incredibly easy to sell and deliver.
As a franchise partner, you’ll be trained to coach business owners using this framework. Your role is to guide, support, and lead them through transformation — and our materials make that clear, step-by-step. Plug and Play for you …
Why This Sells:
-
Business owners want outcomes. ABoS delivers profit, time, team, and freedom.
-
You’ll be able to show prospects case studies, testimonials, and ROI calculators during sales calls
-
Each step of the system builds trust and retention — meaning you keep clients longer and generate consistent recurring revenue
-
It works in every industry — from trades to tech, from solo operators to multi-location businesses
The Six Steps:
1. Mastery — Bring your clients from chaos to control (time, money, delivery, clarity)
You’ll help them regain control of their day, eliminate firefighting, and make better decisions based on numbers
2. Marketing — Install proven systems to generate leads, conversions, and repeat business
Show them how to measure, optimize, and multiply their marketing ROI with our “5 Ways” formula and Ladder of Loyalty
3. Systems — Build predictable operations that free up time and increase value
Help your clients document, delegate, and systematize everything from sales to service delivery
4. Team — Develop leadership and culture that scales the company without the owner
Coaching them to build an empowered, accountable team through hiring systems, leadership training, and culture design
5. Scale — Use the 5 Disciplines of Scale to expand beyond their current limits
This is where many clients increase revenue dramatically by replicating what works in other locations or verticals
6. Freedom — Help clients exit, sell, or step away from day-to-day operations
Guide them to create an asset they can sell, keep, or step back from — giving them true business and lifestyle freedom
By following these six steps, you’ll be able to demonstrate results, charge premium fees, and confidently scale your own coaching enterprise.
