What's the difference between a Business Coach, a Consultant and Executive Coach?

There are good reasons and trade-offs for all three! Which is right for you? 


Business Coaches 

  • Help you understand challenges then help you improve. 
  • Leverage your expertise and insight to find the best solutions.
  • Help guide you to develop and discover new strengths.

Business Consultants

  • Leverage industry-specific experts to find authoritative solutions.
  • Tell you precisely what to do.
  • Can fully execute new solutions for you.

Executive Coaches 

  • Develop personal leadership competencies, overcome growth plateaus or personal weaknesses in behavior that may be interfering with business or career success.
  • Will have similar industry or functional area expertise and can provide specific insight or leverage common experiences
  • Fill the gap for leaders who may not have anyone senior to them in their company or has the time to help them progress.

What kinds of problems does The Avenue Development Group solve?

Most smaller organizations have some expertise and know their line of business, but may not know how to run a business.
Based on your "why," we can help you identify solutions to "who, what, when, where & how" questions like these:

  • Where do I start? 
  • What should I do to take my business to the next level? 
  • When will I make more money?
  • What's the best strategy to achieve my goal?
  • Who should I promote, fire, or hire?
  • Where should I move or locate my business? 
  • What am I missing? 

There are six separate management functions of a business: Vision & Strategy, Marketing & Sales, Finance & Accounting, Operations & Equipment, Technology, and Human Resources.
Business problems are universal; solutions are unique. We use disciplined business tools to identify the right problem, then offer objective business problem-solving services based on available information, insight, and your industry-specific expertise to find options for the solution.
Small businesses don't know what they don't know. A good coach can help you pull it together.  

How much do you charge?

We take a customized approach for each client to find solutions that meet your budget.  We offer hourly discounts for: 

  1. Half-day or full-day projects such as annual strategic planning, meeting facilitation or training workshops; 
  2. Quarterly milestone reviews to verify progress and make adjustments;
  3. Monthly business reviews to keep you on track.

We accept personal checks, Venmo, Apple Pay, and PayPal. 

How will I know it was worth the cost?

The value any solution depends on:  

  1. Whether you hit your defined goals and objectives,
  2. If you learned how to avoid the problem in the future.  

What do you guarantee?

Confidentiality, honesty, transparency and dedication to help you become more successful.
