John Nieuwenburg Founder at W5 Coaching

I've worked with John several times. He helped me take my business to the next level when I was doing well with clients but new to the world of small business. He introduced me to basic business concepts which he knew exceptionally well and gave me well-organized systems and tools for analyzing, tracking and moving forward. John's style is a mix of exceptional listening skills and genuine caring for the person.

I am the Co-Organizer of the Vancouver Business Network Meetup. On February 12, 2013 Mr. John Nieuwenburg spoke eloquently to my members. The title of his presentation was “Attract as many customers as your business will ever need”. John totally engaged the audience with his stories and the depth and breadth of his knowledge around the metrics that drive all businesses. He opened many eyes to the potential that can be realized by tapping into the power of these metrics.

John and I worked together for several years at Spence Diamonds. He has a broad business knowledge base and and a great ability to see the 'big picture' in people's businesses. I would highly recommend John as a Business Coach and Strategist.

I have been working with John for a while now. His insight and suggestions are always spot on, he is not afraid of giving you encouragement or make you realize your mistakes. He always has good advice to tackle tough situations and the process is a lot of fun as well!

John has been kind enough to co-coach myself & a client over the past couple of months. John has helped me develop several good strategies for my business along the lines of marketing and business growth. I find that as a business strategist he is among one of the best, he really gets you thinking about your business.

I've also completed one of his Growth Club quarterly reviews and that is definitely worth the time and money. It gets you thinking about your business and focusing on your business for the next few months.

The results spoke for themselves - both in dollar amounts, as well as the degree of confidence and organization that was added to my business operations. I highly recommend John as a business coach for small and medium businesses.

Some of the education I received from John regarding measuring lead-to-close ratio and tweaking the sales process to find the bottleneck was just incredible. I've also learned how to better position and package my products in order to increase the value of our products significantly while reducing repeated labour. The systems work.

Being a new business owner in the healthcare industry, John was very helpful in getting my business partner and I focused on building our clinic up one step at a time. He shared a lot of great tools and books that have given us a foundation to build on over the years to come. Thank you for teaching me how to put my business owner hat on!

John helped me envision my business from a completely different point of view. He took the time to understand and tailor solutions to my specific needs and every one of our meetings resulted in many "aha!" moments that I value immensely.

I attended John's Massive Action Workshop at the beginning of this month, and have been confidently going full-steam ahead, ever since. Not only does John have a tremendous amount of skill and knowledge at business building, he also has a way of challenging what I "think" I know and that prompts me to try different approaches. I am already really looking forward to his next 90-day planning session so I can tackle the next phase of my world domination!

I have attended John's quarterly growth club on several occasions. In fact, sine 2010 I have attended every one that my schedule allows. A great kick start for your quarterly goals, helps you to focus on the quarter ahead and do some great networking while you're there! A must especially for the business owner or entrepreneur.
