Business Coaching
I’m a Brigthon-based business coach, working with business owners, team leaders, project managers and individuals looking to learn more about establishing strong professional practices. Working together, we’ll establish your business goals, the challenges you’re facing and how I can tailor my support to meet your specific needs. I look forward to working with you!
Hi, I’m Martin...
Your business is unique. Your support should be too.
No two people are the same…and neither are your professional goals, ambitions or challenges. It’s why I believe every project should begin with an open and honest conversation. Maybe you’re an individual looking to upskill and develop your potential? Maybe you and your colleagues need support whilst setting up a new business, expanding your services, or growing a team? Maybe you need help identifying a problem or refinining the working models and systems you already have in place.
Let’s talk!
My services
Perhaps you already know where things are going wrong in your organisation. Perhaps you’ve already got a sense of which processes or practices aren’t working for you. Maybe you’re still trying to understand what’s going wrong and why. Or maybe you don’t have a problem at all - maybe you’re just looking to get ahead of an issue, cement an already strong working culture, and safeguard against growth and change.
I‘ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of people, across businesses large and small, all with a host of different needs. Whilst no two people or organisations are the same, here are some common issues my clients come up against time and time again. (Want the good news? They’re all issues we can fix, together!)
Recognising your business potential & rebuilding shaky foundations
Has your business been built on shaky foundations? Have you inherited outdated structures that no longer serve your business, or struggled to integrate teams and processes? I can help unpack why and where your existing structures are holding you back, and work with you to implement new, agile, effective working practices.
Growing Pains
Rapid growth signifies a time of change for your business which can be both exciting and daunting. Without adequate time to prepare, you may experience issues with processes & structures that no longer meet your broader needs. I can help you establish new models of working to support your expanded business needs.

Better work-life balance
I talk to a lot of business owners who struggle to retain balance between their business obligations and the desire to switch off, recharge, and check in with family and friends. It’s very normal—after all, it’s your business, and you want to make sure it’s run in the way you always envisaged, to a standard you can be proud of. But owning a successful business shouldn’t mean sacrificing every hour of your life to achieve results. I work with clients to establish areas where delegation and streamlining can ease workload, helping to develop a plan for effective growth that doesn’t come at the expense of your time, energy and mental health.
Reaching your unique business goals
No two people are the same…and neither are your professional goals, ambitions or challenges. I adjust the level of support I offer to suit you, your expectations, and your budget, tailoring my approach to you and you alone. You can choose from one-hour standalone coaching sessions, to coaching packages that provide longer term, personable report. If you’re a medium to large business looking for a more in-depth approach, I can create a bespoke consultancy package, structured and priced according to your specific needs. I can offer workshops and training to target specific areas of concern. But whatever the issue may be, my support will always be accessible, personable and measurable.

“I need help…but I don’t know what for.” Identifying the problem
Do you know you have a problem, but are unsure exactly what that problem is? This is a common occurrence for businesses, especially during periods of rapid change or stagnation. I work with clients to discuss the challenges you’re facing, identify the issue, and create a bespoke solution to bring about effective, measurable solutions.
Creating a working culture to be proud of
People are at the heart of every business. However small or large a workforce, it’s essential that your team can communicate effectively, interact positively, & handle challenge and conflict productively and respectfully. I work with team leaders to create dynamic working cultures that inspire, enrich and celebrate authenticity.

Let’s stop calling our ADHD colleagues “superheroes”
Whilst business owners should absolutely be celebrating the benefits of neurodiverse ways of thinking, organisations also need to understand ADHD and neurodivergence through a more nuanced lens.
No one is a walking, talking CV
How can we build working environments and structures that allow a team to thrive as a collective, whilst making space for individuality to shine through? The answer lies in that human-centred approach, in recognising people as individuals.
Managing unhealthy working practices
It’s an issue many professionals face, particular those in senior leadership positions or self-employment: how do we step away from professional obligations, and make time for self-care and recuperation?
“Martin is a fantastic teacher and mentor. With his enthusiastic, open minded and positive nature he is a real asset for every project.”

FAQs

My support is tailored to suit a wide range of business needs. I work with individuals, business owners and team leaders to help them develop their professional skills, problem solve, and overcome challenges within their organisation.
My business coaching services are conducted via one-to-one coaching sessions.
It’s your choice as to how you’d like to receive my support. You can book an individual, one-off session, and are welcome to return to me for additional ad hoc support at any point where you feel my help is required.
Or, you can undertake longer-term coaching solutions, via a package of sessions and services.
However you choose to proceed, I’m here to advise on areas for improvement and refinement, and my support is based on the scale of your requirements.
If I think you or your organisation could benefit from a more longterm, full-service approach, I also offer a more formal business consultancy service.
Following our kick-off conversation, I’ll send you a detailed proposal, outlining how I think I can best support you.
-
Following our free initial conversation, I will provide a quote including transparent pricing and my recommendation for the number of sessions you may need - but the choice of how, when and how often you wish to work with me is always yours.
Please note, I take into account your circumstances are goals whilst considering costs, and work under a “hardship fund” model.
This means I offer my services at a significant discount to those who might not otherwise be able to easily access business support, or for organisations with a strong social justice working model.
In the past, this has included individuals from minority or underrepresented backgrounds, or organisations whose goal is to make meaningful social change.
If you’d like to learn more about my pricing, or discuss whether you or your organisation is eligible for discounted support, please book in for our free initial conversation.
-
I begin working with all my clients by offering a free thirty minute kick-off call, during which we can get to know each other and I can learn more about your unique needs, the challenges you’re facing, and the goals you’d like to achieve.
Following on from this, I will send you a tailored proposal detailing how best I can support you. Once we’ve worked out a schedule and arrangement you’re happy with, we’ll begin working together.
-
Whilst I’m happy to provide coaching over video call, I believe it’s important to build a human connection - which can be challenging through a screen! I advise that we have at least one or two sessions in person, and I’m happy to travel to make this possible. Get in touch for more information if you’d like to discuss meet up arrangements in more detail.
-
For larger organisations, I recommend discussing my consultancy services. I also offer a range of expertly-curated workshops, seminars and training packages, created to help instil a more agile, dynamic working mindset.
If you would like to learn more about my workshop and training services, including pricing and availability, please visit my Business Consultancy page or get in touch.
Ready to get started?
It all starts with a conversation. I want to know more about you, the challenges you're facing, and your business goals. Schedule your free kick off call now, and let’s start talking. I look forward to meeting you!
