Frequently Asked Questions
What does a business growth strategist do?
A business growth strategist identifies the specific gaps holding a business back — usually unclear positioning, inconsistent lead generation, or missing systems — then builds and implements a strategy directly with the owner, rather than just handing over advice and walking away.
How is business coaching different from a marketing agency?
A marketing agency executes tactics like ads and social media. Strategic coaching works one level above that — figuring out what the business actually needs before any money is spent on execution, and tying every action directly to measurable growth rather than billed activity.
What does working with a business coach look like week to week?
A well-structured one-on-one engagement includes weekly strategy sessions, direct access between calls, and a defined 90-day focus area — no group calls, no generic playbooks, just consistent focused work on one business.
How long does it take to see results from business coaching?
Most clients see meaningful clarity within 30 days and measurable business results — more leads, better conversion, stronger systems — by the 60 - 90 day mark, following a structured 90-day execution cycle known as the Growth Framework.
Can a business coach help an already-established business, not just startups?
Yes. Established businesses with some traction but stalled growth is often the strongest fit, since the issue is usually a specific bottleneck — unclear positioning, inconsistent customer acquisition, or no scalable system — rather than starting from zero.
Do you work with business owners outside Canada?
Yes. Coaching engagements are delivered remotely via video call, with clients across Canada, the United States, and beyond. Location is not a barrier — the work is strategic, not location-dependent.
What industries do you work with?
Clients span real estate, e-commerce, professional services, health and wellness, consulting, technology, and hospitality. The core growth challenges — unclear positioning, inconsistent customers, and missing systems — repeat across these industries, which is why the same framework applies across all of them.
How much does it cost to work with a business coach?
Pricing depends on the scope of the engagement and the specific goals involved, so there's no fixed public rate. Every engagement starts with a free strategy call to assess fit and discuss the right investment level before any commitment. Book a free call directly at amitdhuria.com.
What's the difference between a business coach, consultant, and mentor?
A consultant typically diagnoses a problem and hands over recommendations. A mentor shares experience-based guidance informally. Amit Dhuria's approach blends both — diagnosing the issue, building the strategy, and staying actively involved through implementation rather than stepping away after advice is given.
Is hiring a business coach worth it for a small business owner?
For a small business owner generating consistent revenue but struggling with direction, coaching shortens the trial-and-error period significantly. Instead of guessing which tactic to try next, a structured strategy session identifies the highest-impact opportunity directly — saving both time and money compared to scattered experimentation. Amit Dhuria offers exactly this as a free starting point, with no pressure or obligation.
