Local business coach brings national award back to Warwick
Warwick-based business coach Kevin Riley has received a national award recognising the ongoing success of his business, ActionCOACH Warwick. The Great British Franchisee Awards considers areas such as business experience, business growth, staff retainment, customer satisfaction, community involvement, and inspired leadership to determine worthy business owners across the UK. Due to his excellence in all of these categories, Kevin is now celebrating the prestigious business award win.
ActionCOACH Warwick supports businesses across the region, offering business coaching services to help put Warwickshire on the map as a real hot spot for entrepreneurial zeal.
“I’m often given credit for the work we do at ActionCOACH Warwick,” said Kevin. “We all know I’m just the face of the business. My team are the people who do everything, which means I can do what I love… coach and help people. Yes, I’m very pleased personally but more than anything, I’m delighted for my team who work really hard to inspire and make a difference. So, thank you very much - it means a lot to us all.”
The judges of the Great British Franchisee Awards explained that Kevin Riley had structured ActionCOACH Warwick for sustained growth. They said that Kevin was a great role model and ambassador to the ActionCOACH community. He stood out for practising what he preaches, setting his own business up for growth as he advises his business owner clients to do, including investing in a fantastic team. The judges concluded that finding someone like Kevin, who is performing above projections and demonstrating excellent leadership qualities, is exactly what they were looking for when bestowing a Great British Franchisee Award.
Kevin is not stopping with his exciting Great British Franchisee Award win. Living with the mantra of #ChangingLives, Kevin has built ActionCOACH Warwick to a team of seven since launching in 2019 and has helped create over 154 jobs so far in local businesses from a variety of sectors – with one of his client’s turnover going from £180,000 to £6 million in that time. One local business owner who has particularly benefitted from Kevin’s coaching is the Director of Sight Security Services, Amanda Gowing.
“Kevin and the team at ActionCOACH Warwick have helped us think a little bit differently,” said Amanda. “He’s supported us in targeting the commercial sector to increase our business potential. Since working with Kevin, we’ve managed to secure large construction company contracts, transforming our overall business model. He’s brilliant at holding us to account and at keeping us focused on the way forward. In the period of 12-24 months working with ActionCOACH Warwick, we tripled our turnover. We believe that with their support in implementing new strategies, we can consistently achieve this type of growth.”
