QUESTIONS MOST OFTEN ASKED ABOUT LEAPZONE
What is LeapZone’s process?
Our process is to conduct an initial strategy session and then accompany with either coaching or cre8ive services, or often times both, to help businesses build successful brands from the inside out. Depending on where you are at with your business, our services work hand-in-hand to tailor to your needs to help you raise the bar.
• Strategy provides a higher level of clarity, sharper focus, and planning of the next steps.
• Coaching provides accountability and on-going support to carry through the planning.
• Cre8ive provides effective and authentic brand development to support brand consistency in the marketplace.
How long does LeapZone’s process take?
That all depends on what we find once we look under the hood of a business.
• Strategy: Initial strategy session(s) from 3 hours to 3 days depending on the depth of clarity required.
• Coaching: Coaching is typically a 1 year contract. (see “How does performance coaching work?” for more info)
• Cre8ive: Cre8ive depends on the scope of the collateral…however an initial brand identity package usually takes about 1.5 – 2 months to complete. This is also subject to client availability.
Who is LeapZone best suited to help?
We are best suited to help, what we call, "Leapers". What is a Leaper you ask? A Leaper is a successful entrepreneur or business leader who is:
• ambitious: has a deep desire to achieve more.
• committed: is willing to take consistent action to achieve goals.
• ready for change: is open to taking "calculated risks" to move forward.
• a dreamer: has ambitious goals and needs support getting there sooner.
• driven: has the drive, desire and energy to make it happen.
• disciplined: has the ability to implement quickly and remain consistent.
• accountable: does what they say they will do.
• facing a challenge that is stopping the business from reaching that next level.
• someone who just simply wants more out of business and life.
How is LeapZone different from other coaches or branding firms?
We bring more than 12 years of hands-on experience empowering entrepreneurs and business leaders from all industries to gain a higher level of clarity about who they are and what they want to raise the bar on their business and brand by overcoming major blocks, getting the right people in the right seats, dealing with tough decisions, and becoming a consistent and successful promise delivery system.
One major aspect that truly sets us apart from other coaches and branding firms is that we bridge the gap between business and branding. Our process is based on 3 principles: Clarity, Pivotal Shifts and Momentum. We look at your business from a strategic and tactical level, and also bring our extensive brand-building expertise to the table. Our delivery of our process is always in an honest and direct approach with no room for BS. The combination of our process and delivery benefits entrepreneurs and business leaders in 3 ways:
1. It helps them achieve balance in their lives between work and play;
2. It helps them align and focus their team and communications to deliver a uniform customer experience; and
3. It helps them move forward at a healthy, strategic and faster pace towards their version of massive success.
How does performance coaching work?
LeapZone’s coaching experience is shaped to you and your needs. The process begins with an initial questionnaire to provide us with highlights of your present situation. Then, a phone conversation is had to see if we are the right fit for each other, and to discuss any questions you may have. This is important as a typical coaching experience is for 1 year, so having the right fit becomes crucial to the partnership success. If we decide to move forward we then ask you to complete our In-Depth Business Blueprint to further assess situations, challenges, motivations and goals. We then design a coaching experience proposal to match your needs and to best suit your desired results.
Why is coaching typically a 1 year commitment?
We work with clients that are looking to make permanent, profitable changes. It takes about 1 year to align the internal personality and external behaviours of a business through our 360 degree Business Workout Program.
How much is a 1 year coaching contract?
Depending on the scope of the commitment and the size of your business, coaching fees will vary. For more information, feel free to contact us at rise@leapzonestrategies.com.
What results have clients achieved?
LeapZone’s no BS style and 360 degree approach has helped clients gain clarity and momentum; increase revenue, smart productivity and profitability; attract ideal clients; reduce stress levels and hours worked; build higher calibre teams and increase working with purpose; and, attain an authentic level of brand consistency in the marketplace.
How much does creating or re-vitalizing a brand cost?
On average, when you include the initial strategy session(s) that are pivotal to the development of a brand, it can range anywhere from $10,000 to $75,000 depending on the work required. This is why we provide proposals on a case by case basis. The branding process is an investment to the success and growth of your company, and should be treated as such.
Can you design just a logo for us?
The short answer to that question is no.
I cannot afford this process…now what?
You can get ready. What do you need to do to accumulate the funds to raise the bar on your business? Creating and solidifying a successful brand is an investment worth making, we should know. We have been working with a coach for 12 years, and consistently have been holding strategy and planning sessions to stay on our growth track. When you are 100% committed, you’ll be amazed at what you can make happen.
