Hi, I’m Katie McManus.
My motto is “stop being a weenie” - and I believe that anything can be accomplished with a well thought out action plan and a little bravery.
I coach new business owners who want to make really good money…
doing work they love… and have a real impact on the world…
…without sacrificing their freedom, stable income, and sanity.
I believe that any goal is reverse engineerable… If you stop being a weenie and have a practical step-by-step plan.
My philosophy is simple. No two business owners are the same, so there’s no one size fits all strategy that works for everyone.
You’re unique. So your strategy should be too.
Before I started my business I had a “great” career in Sales and Marketing - before I walked away and created the life I really wanted.
I’m trained and certified in Co-Active Coaching and Leadership.
I blend my expertise in business, coaching, sales, social media, and marketing, to create custom strategies with my clients.
Then I inject it all with a healthy dose of “get it done” accountability.
I believe that the only things that get in the way of you achieving your business and life goals are:
Trying to DIY it- even when you’ve never started a business before
Chasing what other people tell you you should want
Generally being a weenie
This is business coaching for more than just business.
It transforms you into who you’re meant to be.
My Approach
In my 7+ years of coaching I’ve learned a few things…
My clients tend to be intelligent, caring, and complicated humans, who have a deep desire for something more- but need to get out of their own way first.
So- in our work I’m always ready for the unexpected. I push so we can discover their real (and usually unspoken) goals…
And because everyone is different- I create one of a kind action plans that leverage each person’s strengths and preferred mode of work.
I know that dreams evolve and blind spots shift.
And as your coach, my job is to adjust and iterate with you.
So my business coaching programs are about 2 things:
Dream it
First - we need to identify your goals.
From how much money you want to make, to what kind of work you want to do, to how much time you want to spend with your loved ones and on passion projects.
And we get rid of what you think you SHOULD want- because shoulds are never inspiring enough to motivate you to face your fears and do the work.
build it
Then we connect the dots between here and there.
Creating a practical roadmap that’s custom to you. Each step is doable - if a little scary at first.
Don’t worry. I’ll be there.
At every level up, you’re going to have new questions, new ideas. Things come up that you can’t foresee.
So the process continually adapts and changes with you.
