Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in business development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Jeff Saari, Founder of Visionary Coaching, LLC., located in Keene, NH, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I am an executive whisperer, team doctor, and business therapist. I support small companies around strategic planning, management excellence, and employee engagement.

Tell us about yourself

I came to my business after a severe depression. I woke up one day and realized that I wanted to help people find their goals and address their barriers. I realized that the mind is the most valuable real estate that we own. I love to see small increments of progress and how that impacts an organization's growth over time.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

I have been able to work with a lot of local high-level executives in my area of Keene, NH. I have achieved a great work/life balance.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

It is often confusing to me how to help a client go to the next level. I have so many coaching tools, but keeping it fresh is always a challenge.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Interview someone that is already doing something that you want to do.
  2. Develop your capacity to not take things personally.
  3. Work with a coach. Everyone has blind spots, and a coach can point those out.

Is there anything else you'd like to share?

Follow your passion and your gut. Keep your vision alive. It took me many years as a side hustle while working a full-time job to make my coaching business successful. This is while raising an infant!
