Business & Career Coaching
Dan was very helpful to me. At the beginning of our session he structured our appointment in terms of timing and objectives, which I found helpful. Then he gave me an idea of what I could and should expect from him. He listened first, asked questions and then proceeded to give me a lot of helpful feedback and ideas. I got a lot in a short period of time. More...
What do you love most about your job?
The long-term effects of sharing perspective. The knowledge that a client was listening and taking action based on my observations and that the benefits are helping them to succeed is one the most gratifying experience any coach can have. I also take great pride in becoming friends with so many of my clients as a by-product of our interactions.
What inspired you to start your own business?
The deep desire to maintain Independence as long as possible. The knowledge that I have no limits and that anything I want in life is simply a matter of goals and execution.
Why should our clients choose you?
With over 30 years of business experience spread across 11 different and challenging industries, my perspective in the areas I have chosen is considered by past clients as exemplary and I will work effortlessly to grow the client list. I'm a great listener and the best Idea guy in the industry.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I love the camera (or I learned to love the camera) and thus, online and remote coaching is a pleasure if that is how you would like to engage. For those of you in the NY, NJ and CT region, I provide limited on-site sessions. Primarily in the Hospitality industry for an additional fee.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I am vaccinated, boosted and take COVID very seriously because my wife is in the high-risk category. I also have adapted my coaching and consulting to include Remote and Online training.
Business Strategy session
Ever wanted to make better decisions? Looking for a path forward that just makes sense? Dan has several strengths, one of them is Strategic Thinking.
Defined as:
The Strategic theme enables you to sort through the clutter and find the best route. It is not a skill that can be taught. It is a distinct way of thinking, a special perspective on the world at large.
This perspective allows you to see patterns where others simply see complexity. Mindful of these patterns, you play out alternative scenarios, always asking, "What if this happened? Okay, well, what if this happened?" This recurring question helps you see around the next corner. There you can evaluate accurately the potential obstacles.
Guided by where you see each path leading, you start to make selections. You discard the paths that lead nowhere. You discard the paths that lead straight into resistance. You discard the paths that lead into a fog of confusion. You cull and make selections until you arrive at the chosen path -- your strategy.
A Strategy Session with Dan is Fast paced, Filled with action and a clear path for you to choose.
1-4 hr. sessions weekly - Online or In-Person
Brand Consulting
Ever wanted to grow your brand but can't figure out how? Well, Dan is an Ideation (Idea) specialist. Having owned, sold, coached, partnered, and failed with over 100 brands it's no wonder he loves this area of consulting.
Ideation is a strength of his. People exceptionally talented in the Ideation theme are fascinated by ideas. They are able to find connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.
Brand Consulting with Dan is a wide open area for us to explore together. D2C, Amazon, Retail, Etsy, Restaurant, Tech, VR/AR/NFT, you name it, Dan can provide perspective and consulting around your needs.
Ideation and Idea formation sessions
Looking for Ideas? Want to grow your business but can't seem to find the SPARK? Well, that's because you are probably great at execution or sales, service and systems. Idea creation is a different strength. One of Dan's top 5. These fast paced sessions are for Idea lovers.
An idea is a connection. Dan's is the kind of mind that is always looking for connections, and so he is intrigued when seemingly disparate phenomena can be linked by an obscure connection. An idea is a new perspective on familiar challenges. You and Dan will revel in taking the world we all know and turning it around so we can view it from a strange but strangely enlightening angle. Dan loves all these ideas because they are profound, because they are novel, because they are clarifying, because they are contrary, and because they are bizarre.
