Before You Start Coaching

How do I know if business coaching is right for me?

Coaching is a good fit when you’re ready to grow, make changes, and follow through. Whether your goal is more production, stronger systems, or greater freedom, coaching gives you a plan and someone to hold you accountable.

What’s the difference between working with Mike and working with Maria?

Mike and Maria are separate Tom Ferry business coaches with different approaches. Mike works with ambitious real estate professionals focused on production, profitability, and building a high-performing business. Maria helps professionals grow with smarter strategies, consistent execution, and a business that supports the life they want. You’ll work with the coach who’s right for you.

What happens during a coaching call?

We focus on your business, your numbers, and your priorities. We might work through a challenge, sharpen a strategy, or set your next action steps. You’ll leave knowing what to do next.

Will coaching help me generate leads and increase my income?

Lead generation and income growth are common goals. Coaching helps you improve your strategies, focus on productive activities, and build consistent habits. Results depend on your starting point and the work you put in.

What if I’m already successful?

Coaching isn’t just for people who are struggling. Successful professionals use it to improve profitability, strengthen their teams and systems, and create more freedom.

How quickly will I see results?

That depends on your goals, starting point, and implementation. You may see early gains in focus and consistency, while bigger business results usually take sustained effort. No specific outcome is guaranteed.

How much does coaching cost?

Programs and pricing are handled through the Tom Ferry organization. Schedule a conversation to discuss your goals and explore available options.

How do I get started?

Choose Mike or Maria and schedule an introductory conversation. We’ll talk about what you’re working toward and whether coaching is the right next step.

Getting the Most From Your Coaching

What is expected of me as a coaching client?

Come prepared, know your numbers, be open to feedback, and follow through between sessions. Great coaching is a partnership, and your participation matters.

How should I prepare for each coaching call?

Complete your pre-session form when required, review your progress and numbers, revisit your previous commitments, and think about the one or two things you most want help with. Arrive ready to use the time well.

What should I track between calls?

Track the activities and outcomes that matter for your business, such as conversations, appointments, leads, conversion rates, and transactions. Your coach will help you decide what to measure.

What if I didn’t complete my commitments?

Still show up and be honest about what happened. We’ll look at what got in the way, adjust the plan if needed, and focus on your next steps.

Can I bring a specific challenge to a session?

Absolutely. Team issues, lead generation, time management, difficult decisions, and other real business challenges are exactly what we can work through.

What if I need to reschedule?

Let your coach know as early as possible and follow the scheduling and cancellation guidelines for your Tom Ferry coaching program.

How can I get support between calls?

Put your action plan to work, explore resources available through Tom Ferry, and stay connected with fellow clients through our Discord community and at events. For program-specific support, use the appropriate Tom Ferry support channels.

What if I feel stuck or overwhelmed?

Bring it up. We’ll help you identify what’s most important, simplify your priorities, and build a realistic plan to move forward.
