"Kristen Schmitt is an exceptional coach. She helps you draw your own conclusions and deduce the solutions to issues in your business. She keeps you focused on the bigger purpose behind why you do what you do and whether it matters. She helped me eliminate many things that were weighing me and the company down while streamlining processes. Her coaching was incredibly helpful while navigating some tough employee situations and the financial downturn experienced by the real estate industry when the rates increased.
A month after completing our coaching concluded, I still used the tools she provided. Our business has increased and become much more efficient. I credit this largely to Kristen for keeping me centered and supporting my growth. These are her results as much as they are mine. She is worth the investment in your success!
