Start Growing

I was referred to Bill Edmonds as someone who could help me grow my business. At the time I wasn’t sure how an Executive Coach could help me, but Bill has exceeded my expectations. Because of his experience in the finance industry, he has been able to guide me through accelerated change. It’s because of Bill’s counsel that I have a better understanding of what my purpose is in work and in life and how I can best navigate. Thanks to Bill I am combining my passions with my work and good things are happening.

Bill Edmonds has helped me completely revamp my practice. Previously, my day was governed by the markets, client incoming phone calls and all the things that can fill up a day. Bill quickly analyzed my business practices and was able to provide specific actionable recommendations that produced immediate results. He has helped me streamline my practice by focusing on the parts of my business that should be getting the highest priority. As a result of Bill’s coaching, my business has increased year over year more than any time in the past ten years. He is like having another full-time partner.
