The Accountability Guy®
One of the reasons why entrepreneurship is exceedingly challenging is because of the discipline and commitment you need to be successful. There is a reason why nine out of ten startups fail. A great idea is just that – a great idea. You have to plan, strategize, and work your behind off for weeks, months, and even years to turn that idea into a successful business. And that’s not an easy achievement.
That’s why it’s essential for entrepreneurs to find a reliable solution that helps them stay motivated and devoted towards their goals without getting side tracked or distracted. One of the most effective solutions to this problem is hiring an Accountability Coach.

An Accountability Coach is your professional companion who helps you identify your long-term and short-term goals and break them into micro goals. He or she also keeps you on your toes by regularly checking in and evaluating how far you’ve come in terms of progress. The primary goal of an accountability coach is to enable you to get things done within a given time frame.
With an Accountability Coach, you are far more likely to achieve your goals and make rapid progress towards success. Here’s how an accountability coach makes a difference:
Goals are fundamentally ideas that you want to come true. But to make that happen, you need to break down every goal into practical actions so you’d get closer to your milestone. If your goal is to find a reliable local manufacturer, it’s not going to happen until you do your research, make some calls, set up interviews, and evaluate each from multiple perspectives. An Accountability Coach comes in with a lot of business experience and has the ability to solve this problem for you. He defines a clear path that you can follow to achieve a certain business goal.
An Accountability Coach isn’t just a planner, they also keep you honest and true to your word. Once they have outlined a plan for you, the Accountability Coach checks in on a regular basis to ensure that you have done what you said you were going to do. When you have this feeling of someone asking questions looming over your head, you are less likely to procrastinate or get distracted. This doesn’t only save you time but you find yourself making quick progress towards your desired goals.
Oftentimes, entrepreneurs aren’t sure if what they are doing is actually adding value. In the presence of an Accountability Coach, you don’t have to deal with that type of uncertainties and doubts. As an experienced business professional, the Accountability Coach doesn’t only evaluate your actions and progress but also provides instant feedback to ensure you stay on the right track. They may ask you to shuffle your priorities or provide advice where they think you can do better.
Business is all about winning some, and losing some. Whatever the case may be, your Accountability Coach stays by your side to celebrate your achievements and milestones. However, when things don’t go your way, they are there to provide you the moral support you need to get back up and bounce back with all you’ve got.
I don’t think there is anything more competitive in today’s world than being an entrepreneur. It requires you to devote all you have – from your time to your comfort zone – to have a shot at being successful so you can achieve financial freedom. An Accountability Coach is someone who can give you the competitive edge by keeping you motivated and on your toes at all times.
