The Beginnings of The Growth Coach

The Growth Coach was founded in Cincinnati in 2003 and is the only pure business and sales coaching franchise aimed at driving success while balancing the lives of small business owners, managers, salespeople, self-employed professionals and executives across a wide spectrum of businesses and industries. Founder Dan Murphy, a former accountant at Deloitte, wanted to provide small business owners with financial guidance that was much more than just business strategy. Murphy developed the Strategic Mindset Process©, which helps business leaders step back from the day-to-day and refocus on the big picture. That has proven enormously successful to this day and has allowed The Growth Coach to stand out from competitors in the space. Today, The Growth Coach is active in more than 100 markets in the United States and abroad.

Perhaps the biggest advantage The Growth Coach franchisees have is the robust network of fellow coaches that spend their days helping entrepreneurs thrive.

Initial and
Ongoing Training

Incoming franchise owners will attend our Jump Start program, a pre-training process of three to five weeks, where we help franchisees set up the business, receive certifications, and get everything ready. Then, they come to Cincinnati for an intensive training week, showcasing the specifics of how to be a The Growth Coach owner. By the time they leave, they are fully ready to launch the following Monday. Unlike other franchise systems, we don’t charge extra for training. Existing owners can also return to training if they want a refresh.

The Backing of
Strategic Franchising

The Growth Coach franchisees can leverage the backing of a multi-brand, national parent company in Strategic Franchising Systems. That includes access to not only proven operating, marketing, coaching and technology systems and training but also to a diverse network of other franchisees who can share best practices, as well as cross-brand referrals.
