Dr. John McGill 

During my time as a business coach & strategist, I've had the privilege of helping coaches, consultants, and solopreneurs elevate their businesses to new heights. 

My mission? To help them craft irresistible offers and effortlessly fill their client books—without any stress or salesy vibes.

Here's how I approach each client engagement:

Brand Boost: We start by transforming their brand into a client magnet. Through strategic positioning and messaging, we ensure that their brand stands out in a crowded market, attracting their ideal clients like bees to honey.

Client Connection: Next, we focus on converting interests into bookings through genuine conversations. By fostering authentic connections and building trust, we turn potential clients into loyal customers who can't wait to work with them.

Streamlined Systems: To streamline operations and eliminate unnecessary complexity, we implement efficient systems and processes. This allows them to focus their time and energy on what they do best—serving their clients and growing their business.

Peak Performance: Finally, we prioritize their wellbeing and work-life harmony. By helping them achieve fulfilling workdays with optimal health, focus, and energy, we ensure they can sustain their success in the long run.

I'm passionate about making their journey to success as smooth and enjoyable as possible. 

Whether it's making their business more profitable, healthier, or simply more enjoyable, I'm here to help.

Business Coach & Strategist

The College of Law Australia

You know the job, the one job where you get to use all the best parts of yourself?

Well, this was that job for me.

In the start of my legal career I had an experience where I was told I would never succeed in the legal world because of the colour of my skin.

A partner in a law firm said those words.  He said it because he liked me and thought he was doing me a favour preparing me for reality.

Imagine then the irony of finding myself running a law school in a country on the other side of the world?

Not just running it, changing it.

When I took over as the Executive Director, I inherited a program that hadn’t made any profit.  

What it did have was an incredible team of passionate people committed to giving students everything they could.

All my years of teaching, curriculum development, business coaching, sales training, business development and product development came together.

I tore the entire program apart and had everything rebuilt.

The efforts bent us all.  No one broke.

We went from the 5th largest post-graduate program for lawyers in Australia to the 2nd largest.

We doubled enrolments.  We doubled revenue.

We became profitable after my 3rd year of leadership and stayed profitable.

Was it hard?  The hardest thing I’ve ever been a part of.

Were there battles?  I still bear the scars.

Was it worth it?

Our completion rate went from 30% to 80%.

Our representation of women graduates went from 50% to 70%.

Yeah, it was worth every bit of blood, sweat and tears.

Best. Job. Ever.

(Ok, except for the one now where I work for me ;-)

Executive Director, Practitioner Education

Prime Practice

Fun fact: I’m terrified of dentists and they used to be my clients.

Well, I should say, I was terrified of dentists until I started working with them.

Here’s what most people don’t realise–dentists are some of the hardest working professionals alive.

Most dentists have their own practice.  Their practice is a million dollar plus business with staff and a relatively flat structure.

Dentists find themselves having to be responsible for:
- The delivery of services
- The human resource manager
- The marketing manager
- The sales manager
- The business development manager
- The client services manager

Oh, and like lawyers with their own practices, dentists didn’t learn business management in dental school.

That’s where we came in.  As business coaches we helped to fill the business gaps.

We trained everyone up in systems management and client services.  

Taught the dentists new sales techniques.

And then coached the dentists on business performance and ways to grow the practice.

I loved getting to know the dentists and their teams.  

Without a drill in their hands, they weren’t scary at all.

Then an interesting thing happened.

I came to this role after I had been working as a sales coach, living and breathing sales.

I observed one of our information sessions for practice owners and realised we could improve what we said and how we communicated our value to prospective clients.

Problem was, how do I share this with the executives and the CEO who started the company and who had run things for years and I was relatively still new?

I did what anyone in my shoes would do of course: I created a presentation diagnosing the problem and presenting a solution and invited the executives to a meeting none of them had been expecting.

How did it go?

The next week I was promoted to a new role as the Business Development Manager with a 50% raise.  

So, yeah, I’d say it went ok.

Business Development and Marketing Manager, Business Coach and Trainer

BOC Gases

Have you ever taken a job completely outside your comfort zone?

This was that type of job for me.

Not for the work we did.  The work was well within my skill sets. 

The environment was something new.

Gas? Products so dangerous every employee was required to take defensive driving classes?

I never imagined I’d be working in the sciences, let alone in something like natural gas.

It was a blast though (pun fully intended).

I started out with the training team associated with safety, health, environment and quality.

We designed rapid fire training programs, capturing the subjective matter knowledge of people working in the field.  

This was a role filled with characters and I enjoyed every moment.

An internal role popped up to work with the sales team as a sales coach and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

I became immersed in the world of sales at a product level, and supporting a sales team.  

Pure salespeople have an infectious energy.  They’re a hungry bunch.  Never a dull moment around them.

My favourite part was working on the sales coaching program.  

We introduced neuroscience coaching programs with the sales techniques.  

You should have seen the transformations as people learned more about how their brains impacted their behaviours.

This role gave me so many practical skills I still use to this day.

Sales Coach and Trainer

University of Sydney

Have you ever been a one-person show in a team?

I feel your pain, and your triumph.

As always, the best part of this role was the team I worked with and my students, the tutors.

The challenge was the team I worked with each had their own unique program and we were all forced to do everything ourselves for our own programs.

Meaning:
- Creating and delivering the training
- All the event management
- Designing the workshop, marketing and communication materials
- Managing the registrations, bookings and catering
- Designing pilot initiatives
- Coordinating peer observation and review programs
- Implementing a mentoring program
- Creating a reward and recognition program for tutors

My program was responsible for teaching and training over 120 casual tutors at the Business School.  

Most were students themselves and had never taught before.

I had my work cut out for me to try and make the program inviting enough to attract as many tutors as possible.

I created and delivered over 30 individual train-the-teacher seminars.  All in person.  Before Zoom took over the world.

Loved every minute of it.

Clearly, this job prepared me well to eventually run my own business.


P.S.

I was also juggling my own PhD, and teaching my own classes in Organisational Development.

My fondest memory will always be my last day of teaching so I could focus on finishing my PhD and my students, the tutors, had a surprise for me leaving me speechless for the first time ever.

Still brings a tear to the eye.

Coaches Mentor

There are two ways to run your coaching business:

1. Wander aimlessly.
2. Follow a proven path.

Most new coaches fall into the first category.

You are bursting with passion and knowledge, 

but your potential clients DON'T BELIEVE that you can truly transform their lives.

Truth be told, they might not even know you exist or what magic you can weave.

You feel INVISIBLE...

Pouring hours into creating content, 

Sending countless messages hoping for a response, 

and lying awake wondering if you'll ever make it big.

And the grinding goes on and on…

“Is this really sustainable?"

“How do I differentiate myself?”

“Am I really cut out for this?”

NOW…

Imagine running your coaching business from a place of inspiration.

People finally see you!

Conversations flow effortlessly,

Clients are knocking on YOUR door, 

And your calendar is bursting with discovery calls.

And the best part?

You are focused on SERVING, not selling! 

"Sounds good, Christos, but how am I supposed to achieve this?" I hear you asking.

This is exactly why we created Coaches Mentor.

Here’s what to expect in a nutshell:

▪️ POWERFUL COMMUNITY: Become a part of a tribe that truly understands the challenges of running your own coaching business. It's not just about business; it's about belonging.

▪️ BEYOND THE SALES PITCH: While others hand you scripts, we guide you to find your authentic voice. So you connect, not just sell.

▪️ UNSHAKEABLE MINDSET: Remember those sleepless nights filled with doubt? We tackle them head-on. We've been there, and we'll help you rise above.

...All of this backed by an UNCONDITIONAL MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE.

If, for any reason, you feel we didn't deliver, no questions asked. You get every penny back, INSTANTLY.

Now the million-dollar question is,

Are you ready to take the next step and build a thriving coaching business?

We have your back and we’ll be with you the whole way.

👉🏼 Drop me a DM and let’s get the ball rolling.

See you on the other side.

Co-Founder & Lead Coach

Self Employed

Struggling to maintain your sanity while running your business?

You are not alone…

It's easy to get swept up in the daily grind and end up putting your needs on the back burner.

But the truth is, that when you neglect yourself, 

You also neglect your business.

Because an unhealthy business owner, is an ineffective business owner.

A car cannot operate without an engine, and the same applies to your business…

Now the million-dollar question is:

Are you here to play the long game without sacrificing yourself in the process?

If the answer is yes, then you are in the right place.

Here's what you can expect from our time together:

UNSHAKEABLE MINDSET (Time-tested frameworks to help you build the resilience and fortitude needed to stay in the "game" even during the toughest times.)

TOP-NOTCH EFFICIENCY (Everything you need to improve your productivity and work efficiency, so you can have more time to do the things you love.)

PEAK PERFORMANCE (Scientifically-backed ways to take your energy, focus & well-being to the next level, so you can work less and earn more)

Don't let the pressures of entrepreneurship hold you back.

Putting yourself first is not a luxury,

It’s a necessity!

Business Consultant for Entrepreneurs

From designing book covers to helping coaches and entrepreneurs live their best lives.

My journey has been quite the ride. 

But trust me, it's been worth every twist and turn.

Being self-employed was very fulfilling, but it wasn't without its challenges. 

I had to stay on top of my "game" while also managing the plethora of responsibilities that come with running your own business.

The tight deadlines and long hours often left me drained, stressed, and exhausted. 

My mental & physical health was suffering and I really struggled to maintain healthy boundaries in my daily life.

This wasn't sustainable for me.

I realized that If I wanted to play the long game,

I had to take better care of myself. 

There was no other way.

So, I started incorporating self-care practices into my daily routine, 

Such as meditation, exercise, and spending more time in nature and with the people I love. 

Not only did it improve my productivity, but it also boosted my overall health & well-being,

And gave me a renewed sense of purpose

See, when you are sleep-deprived, stressed, and exhausted, everything feels like grinding,

But when you are well-rested, relaxed, and energized,

Things become almost effortless.

Now, I am blessed with the opportunity to help others overcome similar challenges.

I was always a health & nutrition “geek”, 

But being self-employed for all these years, really made me understand the hardships and challenges of running your own business. 

Without the right boundaries, entrepreneurship can be a very rough “game”,

But done right, it can be one of the most fulfilling things we can do.

Graphic Designer

AVIN INTERNATIONAL S.A.

Do you know what it feels like to work in a field you love, yet still feel unfulfilled in your job? 

I know the feeling all too well. 

But little did I know that my experience as an engineer would lay the foundations for what I do right now.

As an engineer, I had to solve problems, brainstorm, try different approaches and come up with creative solutions every single day.

This was a very exciting process.

A process that still helps me guide my clients overcome their own challenges up to this day. 

Paying attention into detail and connecting the dots in a holistic way, helps me find personalized solutions that fit your unique needs.

Because every human being is different, 

And the “one size fits all” approach never really works.

By asking you the right questions and seeing the bigger picture, I empower you to come up with your own solutions.

I am not a “guru” or an “expert”. 

We are two equal human beings working towards a common goal.

Helping you overcome your challenges and live the life you deserve.

With small & actionable steps.

One day at a time.

Fleet Management Division Engineer

Hellenic Army

If you’ve read this far, you’re probably wondering what the military has to do with coaching and entrepreneurship.

Honestly, a lot.

Jocko Willink is a big advocate of how military principles apply to life & business.

When I joined the military, I was a young adult with no sense of purpose and no real direction in life. 

What followed was a life-changing experience that helped me improve my resilience and shape who I am today.

As a battlefield communications operator (it sounds kind of cool but it really wasn’t), 

I was responsible for ensuring that all the communications equipment worked reliably, even under the most adverse conditions. 

Thank god, I didn’t have to go to combat, 

But even the training was sometimes quite intense.

I had to develop a level of discipline that went far beyond anything I'd experienced before. 

I had to work long hours, often with little sleep, and sometimes in extreme temperatures or harsh environments.

But discipline wasn't just about physical endurance. 

It was also about mental resilience and attention to detail.

Following procedures to the letter, even under intense pressure. 

The military drilled this into me every day (the hard way).

And you know what?

Running a business takes discipline,

Busting your *ss in the gym takes discipline,

Changing your habits takes discipline.

Everything valuable in life has to be earned.

With discipline and hard work.

There’s no way around that.

Hardships and challenges are quite uncomfortable, but literally shape our character.

As Marcus Aurelius once said:

“The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way”

Military Service - Battlefield Communications Operator

There are two ways you can approach your coaching business:

1. From a place of desperation: Lost, uncertain, and struggling for clients.
2. Or from a place of inspiration: Confident, aligned, and thriving.

Most coaches find themselves in the first category.

You are conquered by self-doubt...

Imposter Syndrome...

Struggling to find clients...

And unsure of how to price your services.

And the harsh reality?

No matter HOW many resources you try,

They never seem enough...

"Why is building a consistent client base so hard?"

"Will I ever achieve a full-time income?"

Am I cut out for this?

NOW…

Imagine running your coaching business from a place of inspiration.

Working with clients feels rewarding!

You are supported by like-minded people and a powerful community,

Your pricing is spot-on, 

Clients are knocking on your door, 

And you don’t feel lost anymore.

You are calm, confident, and ready to handle every fear, pain, and challenge thrown your way.

Aka, you are IN CONTROL!

"Sounds fantastic, but how can I achieve this?" you may ask.

This is where Coaches Mentor comes in.

Here’s what to expect:

▪️ UNSHAKEABLE MINDSET: Remember those sleepless nights filled with doubt? We tackle them head-on. We've been there, and we'll help you rise above.

▪️ POWERFUL COMMUNITY: Ever wished for a group of coaches who truly understand? We're that community. It's not just about business; it's about belonging.

▪️ BEYOND THE SALES PITCH: While others hand you scripts, we guide you to find your authentic voice. So you connect, not just sell.

...All of this backed by our UNCONDITIONAL MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE.

If, for any reason, you feel we didn't deliver, no questions asked. You get every penny back, INSTANTLY.

Now, the million-dollar question is:

Are you committed to developing a sustainable coaching business?

Are you ready to thrive?

Let's make it happen!
