Practical Coaching Based on Real Business Experience

I have spent more than 25 years building, leading and supporting businesses across marketing, digital services, training and professional services. I am also an Entrepreneurs Circle Certified Coach, trained to apply established coaching, marketing and sales systems to the individual needs of each business.

This means my coaching combines a structured framework with practical commercial experience, rather than relying on generic advice or encouragement. Together, we identify where your business is now, where you want it to be and what needs to change.

Whether you need more enquiries, stronger sales, clearer financial targets, improved systems or greater accountability, we will focus on the areas most likely to improve your results.

How We Work Together Through Practical Business Coaching

Turn Clear Priorities Into Consistent Business Progress

Mike Sherwood combines more than 25 years of business experience with the structure and accountability of Entrepreneurs Circle Certified Coaching.

We begin by reviewing where your business is now, where you want it to be and what may be holding progress back. This includes your goals, current performance, key numbers and immediate concerns. From there, we identify the few priorities most likely to improve results and create a practical plan based on evidence rather than guesswork.

Each session reviews progress, recent results and what needs attention next. You leave with clear decisions, agreed actions and realistic deadlines. Between sessions, support and accountability help you maintain momentum without becoming distracted by too many competing priorities.

The aim is not to give you more work. It is to help you make better decisions, complete the right actions and improve how your business performs over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

A business coach can help you step back from the daily workload and focus on the issues affecting your results.

Mike Sherwood works with business owners on areas including marketing, lead generation, sales, pricing, profitability, planning, systems and accountability. You might need help deciding what to focus on, understanding why sales have slowed or creating a clearer plan for growth.

The aim is not to give you more tasks. It is to identify the actions most likely to improve your business and help you follow them through.

Yes. Business coaching can be particularly valuable for small and owner-managed businesses because many important decisions rest with one person.

Mike works with service businesses, consultants, agencies, trades, clinics and professional firms across Hastings and the wider 1066 area. You do not need a large team or a particular level of turnover.

Coaching works best when you are willing to discuss your challenges honestly, review your numbers and take action. It is less suitable when you want somebody else to make every decision or run the business for you.

FreshOnline offers three business coaching options with Mike Sherwood.

  • The Business Breakthrough Intensive costs £795 plus VAT and focuses on one pressing challenge or decision.
  • One-to-One Business Coaching costs £595 plus VAT per month with a minimum 12-month commitment.
  • The 1066 Business Mastermind costs £6,995 plus VAT per annum with payment options available.

The right option depends on the challenge you face, how much support you need and whether you prefer private coaching or working alongside other business owners.

Choose the Business Breakthrough Intensive when you need to resolve one clear issue, make an important decision or leave with a practical 90-day plan.

Choose One-to-One Business Coaching when you want regular private support, clear actions and ongoing accountability across several areas of your business.

The 1066 Business Mastermind is for established owners who want time away from daily demands to review performance, discuss major decisions and gain input from other experienced local business owners.

A free 20-minute call with Mike can help you choose the most suitable option.

A coaching session starts with what is happening in your business now. This may include your recent progress, current challenges, sales figures, marketing results or an important decision you need to make.

Mike will ask direct questions, help you identify the main issue and work through the available options with you.

You will finish with clear decisions, agreed priorities and practical actions. In ongoing coaching, each session also reviews what has been completed since the previous meeting and what needs attention next.

Business coaching can be worth the cost when it helps you make better decisions, improve performance or avoid expensive mistakes.

For example, stronger pricing, better sales follow-up or clearer marketing priorities may have a direct financial effect. Other changes, such as improving systems or building a team, may take longer.

No responsible coach can promise a set financial result. The value comes from having structured support, honest challenge and accountability. Results still depend on the decisions you make and how consistently you complete the agreed actions.

Mike Sherwood is based at the Innovation Centre in St Leonards-on-Sea and supports business owners across Hastings, Bexhill, Eastbourne, Rye and the wider 1066 area.

The Business Breakthrough Intensive and one-to-one coaching can be delivered through private online calls, making sessions easier to fit around your business.

The 1066 Business Mastermind includes in-person sessions with a small group of established business owners. The most suitable format will depend on your location, schedule and chosen coaching option.

Choose a coach with real business experience, a clear process and the confidence to challenge your thinking rather than simply agree with you. They should be comfortable discussing your numbers, marketing, sales, profitability and the decisions affecting your business.

Mike Sherwood combines more than 25 years of experience building and leading service-based businesses with formal training as an Entrepreneurs Circle Certified Coach. His approach brings together practical commercial experience, a structured coaching framework and clear accountability.

The right coach should also feel like a good personal fit. Mike is likely to suit business owners who value honest feedback, clear priorities and practical action. A free 15-minute introductory call gives you the chance to discuss your business, ask questions and decide whether the approach feels right for you.
