To: Anyone having more challenges than they can handle
“I have never written a testimonial like this, but I feel that I must. I started working with Stan Mann several months ago to help me focus my efforts to increase my business in more profitable areas.
This might seem a little strange, because I am a marketing consultant. My business is helping other businesses increase their sales, and I am pretty good at it. I already had so much business that I had no free time left. So, why work with Stan?
The problem was the KIND of business that I had. It didn’t contribute enough towards my overhead, and I HATED what I was doing. It was not taking me where I wanted to go. Yet, I kept getting the same type of business, over and over. You would think that an expert like me should be able to change the type of business that I attracted. I certainly had the skills. What was wrong?
What was wrong was the way I was looking at my business. The issues were all in my mind. Stan worked with me until I realized what was affecting my decisions and judgment. He gave me some simple questions to ask myself which worked to keep me out of the wrong kinds of business.
Once Stan gave me the key, my workload dropped dramatically. I was no longer working on dead-end stuff. The RIGHT kinds of business started to develop for me. I started to feel good about what I was doing, and it seemed so easy . . . with little effort compared to a few months ago.
Stan made it easy for me, but that’s because he custom fit it to me, and does for each person he works with.
If you are a highly talented individual who is frustrated by your inability to accomplish what you want, and unable to understand why, then you need to work with Stan. In a much shorter time than you think, you can be finding your way to much better results.”
Tom Daly, T.G. Daly & Associates, Inc.Marketing Consultant
Coping with high pressure situations
“Our performance coaching sessions were invaluable. I received focused, impartial feedback. It helped me be at my best during a very important, long term, international project and contributed to my getting a great promotion.
I often consult the ideas on leadership and focus that we developed. I learned instant stress reduction techniques that enable me to remain clear-headed in high pressure situations. Hearing how other Solution Coaching clients solved challenges similar to mine was a big plus. Another bonus was learning how to get better performance from my people.
In summary our coaching relationship has had a positive, lifelong effect on my career and personal life.“
Gerald Klarr, Chief Engineer, Ford Motor Company
“Before Stan’s coaching, I dreaded getting out of my bed and going to my office l knew that nothing good was going to happen. Now I get up eagerly to go to work because good things are happening. I had three huge sales in ten days. My business is no longer in jeopardy. My faith In myself is restored. I feel like the guy scoring a touchdown and spiking the ball. ”
Jeff Hampton Beta Sales & Marketing, Inc.
Floundering practice
“Stan’s coaching has helped me become more organized — benefiting my patients as well as myself. My income is doubling. My mind is clearer, my energy higher and my heart lighter. I’m starting to turn my dreams into reality.
Stan gave me effective marketing ideas that doubled my patient visits, helped me be much more effective with my staff so they improved their performance and gave me better support. He gave me goals and direction and held me accountable. He even helped me make my home life better. I eagerly look forward to our talks.“
Sharon Oliver, M.D.Whole Life and Health Center
“Your tips and guidance have been my backbone for making good business decisions. You recognized the need to help me with personal issues, knowing that to be successful in business one must be happy at home.
You provided the strength when I needed it, to make decisions that were critical toward getting my business off the ground. I have more clients this summer (a normally low period of time) than I have had in all the past five years I have been in practice. Your positive attitude and keen sense of timing have been critical to my success.”
needed to discuss nagging issues
“The experience was very positive and beneficial. I most appreciated the ability to discuss nagging, and new, issues with an impartial and uninvolved party. It is not just about getting it off your chest that helps, it is Stan’s trained ability to listen and ask the right questions. Very often, I hear the question and think “that is a great question!”
For me, it was about looking at things differently, or more thoroughly.
Anybody thinking that Stan’s business coaching services may be beneficial is correct.”
T. Scott Kreinbring, CEO, Parkside Credit Union, Livonia, MI
was progressing too slowly

I recommend Solution Coaching to anyone who wants to succeed more quickly.”
