We will challenge one another to set and accomplish strong goals - both in the sessions and in between in accountability calls. Lee will guide deep dive discussions of your and the other members’ key issues and opportunities and will help the group gain knowledge and skills that create success — as each member defines it.
Isn’t that what you want and need?
If so, schedule your planning session with Lee now. (Remember, the planning session is free. And, no worries about any big expense if you go forward. The monthly group fee is just $150, and you can cancel any time. )
What you get from group coaching.
Mutual support.
Even with differing goals you’ll be able to lean on your peers for support. Over time, group members will really understand what has been going on behind the scenes, and give you support no matter the result of your efforts.
Differing perspectives.
The different views of fellow participants and Coach Lee will enable you to see issues you wouldn’t otherwise be aware of in your business (and, often, in your personal life) and in your approach to your goals.
Resources.
Everyone in the group will have access to different skill sets and networks. When you ask for help, these resources can help you make progress in ways you never could have by yourself.
Accountability.
Fellow group members and Coach Lee will hold you accountable to the goals you set. Just knowing that you have a regularly scheduled meeting will drive you to make progress: You won’t want to be the only person who reports that you haven’t made an effort to move forward.
Community.
You'll be part of an exclusive community of business leaders focused on greater success. The other members need you just as much as you need them, so your perspective, experience and knowledge will be highly valued.
A coach and advisors.
Once you are involved in the group, that feeling of "being alone" while running your business will fade away. Coach Lee and the other members of the group will become your trusted business advisors and great supporters.
Cross promotion.
When you join the group, you and the other group members will likely find ways to help one other through cross promotion to your respective networks.
Bigger thinking.
Being in the group will truly stretch you! You can't help but think bigger and reach beyond your usual boundaries when you are surrounded by amazing people doing amazing things.
Encouragement from others

Suddenly I found myself having to hire employees, create processes and develop a strategy. I turned to Lee Crumbaugh and he helped me more than I can tell you. Meeting with him gives me the opportunity to work on my business instead of in it. He holds me accountable to my goals and guides me toward them.
