I've started and now own four companies with over 600 employees in Kansas. My latest venture has to become the "Growth Coach" for the state. Even though I'm qualified to coach my employees myself, I've hired Michael to travel here from Cincinnati to provide the coaching that I and my staff need to continue to grow. Why Michael? He's the best coach that I've ever met.
The saying goes "People don't care how much you know unless they know how much you care". Michael cares deeply about his clients and it shows. He backs it up with a terrific business acumen and is well versed across a wide range of industries and business sizes. He's the real deal.

Michael is an excellent business coach. The one-on-one meetings with Michael have increased accountability on my goals. My meetings with him have caused me to think more dynamically about my goals. I started attending his workshops and the first one was spectacular! The ability to discuss openly issues concerning the balance of family and work with other business owners is amazing. Thank you Michael! Franklin Carnegie Financial Services, Mark Black, CFP
Working with Michael has allowed me to grow in my business and personal life. The monthly coaching sessions and quarterly workshops keep me focused on removing the clutter. Working ON the business is much more prosperous (and fun) than working IN the business. Thank you Michael for helping me propel my business and personal life to the next level. Term Quote Insurance Services, Drew Raucci
As an Executive Director of a housing and resources ministry for elderly and their families, I felt I could benefit from coaching and challenge myself and the ministry to grow to the next level. I have found that I benefit from both the one-on-one coaching and the quarterly workshops. Through the one-on-one coaching, Michael has aided me and the organization to offer greater benefit to those who seek our assistance. The Quarterly workshops have given me tools to integrate into my routine and our practices which enable me to spend better time on the items which should receive my attention. If you are considering Michael Ehrler as a coach, I recommend him to everyone I meet and his affiliation with The Growth Coach assures me that he will always continue to improve and grow himself so he will be prepared to assist his clients in all their needs.

I attended Michael's Growth Coach workshops. In those meetings he challenged each one of us to set goals. The initial goals that I set for my accounting firm have all come to fruition. Michael is one of the best facilitators that I know. His ability to hold you accountable in a friendly way is very effective. I highly recommend his services. Essex, Inc., Wayne Essex
I have turned a number of my clients on to Michael in the past year and the response has been very positive. Michael is truly making an impact on their businesses, which in turn helps my business as my customers grow! Keep up the good work, Michael! Knox Machinery, Greg Knox
Michael, we greatly appreciate the assistance you have given both Knox Machinery and our valued customer base! Our company objective is to exceed customer expectations at every point of contact, and utilizing your skills allows us to do just that. Many thanks! Knox Machinery, Jay Ratliff
General Manager
The Growth Coach program has challenged our business to place ourselves "under a microscope" and answer tough questions. Michael has been an encouraging voice in the background to inspire us to proceed in that process. He not only takes a professional role with each of his clients, but a personal interest as well. We have found this experience to be vaulable and highly recommend his service.

Michael is the supervisor everyone would want. He draws the solutions out of you in a manner which is constructive and quite helpful. I have appreciated my time with him and he has been an asset to our business. Alcoholism Council, Executive Director, Tom Kelechi
Michael is extremely passionate about helping people attain their goals. Within two days of attending my first workshop, I was promoted to Sales Manager. The workshop helped me focus on where I wanted my business to be in 1, 3 and 5 years from now. I shared these thoughts with my boss and was promoted. In addition to learning a great deal from Michael at the workshop, I learned from the other attendees. To surround yourself with other like minded professionals is key to helping you think outside of the box. I also do personal coaching. My first session hit home when Michael discussed my need to be more strategic and balancing helping others (sometimes too much) and understanding I am in business. Thanks Michael! Countrywide Financial, Beth Gibbs
I have attended one Growth Coach workshop and have had one very valuable one-on-one with Michael Ehrler. I am looking forward to the next workshop with great excitement. The Growth Coach process has made me look at my personal life and my business from a totally different perspective. Focusing on the 90 day goals that I established in the first workshop has not only helped the growth of my business but has made a significant improvement in my personal life as well. I feel that Michael is very caring and obviously has the experience and knowledge to truly benefit anyone with the desire to learn and change their lives for the better.Twin Metal Craft, Debbie Purdy
As a prospective client who may be considering Mike Ehrler, I can assure you he has the passion, integrity and proven coaching & accountability process to help you achieve greater success and fulfillment. He not only gives generously to his clients, he also gives back to our North American network of coaches. He helps train other coaches and regularly contributes his "best practices" with others on our conference calls and at our regional & national meetings. As a result, Mike was recently recognized as our system's "Coach of the Year".G.C. Franchising Systems, Inc., Daniel Murphy

Michael is a terrific coach and does a fantastic job challenging me to think outside the box and beyond my current boundaries. Consulting Franchisee, Julie Murphy
First of all we wanted to grow to utilize the existing available capacity, especially in the summer and fall, and have more consistency in our revenue stream. The result so far is that we are quite busy and productive, for the period June 1 through July 31 our revenues have increased approximately 77% over last year. This also happened during a period when we took a longer vacation than in the past year.Boswell CPA, Marty Boswell
I have learned much about being in business-- marketing, selling, managing, and creating the infrastructure necessary to deliver a quality product. I realized when it comes to running certain aspects of my business; I needed insight, challenges, goals and someone to hold me accountable. It has been an experience that has made me more aware of who I am and how I need to be driving my success. There is no business too large or too small that could use the insights gained through Michael's expertise and guidance.Acadia, Marge Murphy
I am a partner in a successful business and the day exceeded my expectations in the following ways:First, Michael assembled an extremely diverse and talented group of participants. The group's honesty and sharing was dynamic. Second, The Growth Coach coursework acted as the catalyst for an introspective look into our businesses and maybe more importantly, into our personal lives. Third, Michael unveiled the "coaching" concepts by utilizing experiences, which Michael had gleaned from beforehand interviews, from attendee's businesses. Although we conducted business in unrelated industries, the common ground was a real eye opener. Fourth, The Growth Coach curriculum made me think about my personal life and life goals, which honestly, I rarely take the time to do.
The Peregrine Company, Gary Dittrich
I thought the Growth Coach process was great, it helped me tremendously. More importantly, you did a fantastic job! I am looking forward to continuing to our work together.Cintas, Gary Schuler
I recently participated in a Growth Coach workshop hosted by Michael Ehrler. After discussing my business with Michael, he felt I could be more successful by learning and following the techniques detailed in his workshop. Michael felt the Growth Coach could become an invaluable tool in the success of my small IT consulting firm. As the workshop began, I knew almost immediately that this would be a productive day with a great deal of valuable information presented and exchanged between the attendees. Michael's relaxed style put us at ease and opened us up to discuss how the materials being presented would positively impact our businesses. Michael did an excellent job presenting the materials and directing our discussions. The workshop really changed my perception of what my job as a business owner is. It has directed me to work more ON my business and less IN my business. Following the guidelines have forced me into a more strategic mindset and lead me to focus on business building. Prior to this workshop and my discussions with Michael, I continually made the mistake of concentrating only on the projects and customers. My focus now is clearly on the bigger picture. I would highly recommend working with Michael and using the Growth Coach Program to any decision maker who is interested in moving their business in a more positive direction.
