E #530: The Online Coaching Industry Has a Measurement Problem


Listen Later

After seven and a half years of working exclusively online, Kehla G. has started stepping into a new world—working with brick-and-mortar businesses through her role as a Business Coach with Avid Business Performance Group.

What she's discovering is forcing her to rethink some of the most common conversations happening in the online business space.

In this episode, Kehla explores the difference between a business that performs and a business that simply looks good online. She unpacks why so many entrepreneurs focus on followers, engagement, alignment, and self-expression while overlooking the numbers that actually drive growth, profitability, and sustainability.

She also shares the uncomfortable realization that many entrepreneurs have been taught to diagnose business problems through identity rather than performance—assuming they need another certification, strategy, or breakthrough instead of identifying the actual constraint inside the business.

Inside this episode, Kehla discusses:

  • The difference between expertise and building a business

  • Why leads, conversion, revenue, profit, and retention matter more than most entrepreneurs realize

  • How business owners accidentally create growth they can't sustain

  • The danger of making every business challenge a personal failure

  • Why understanding a founder and understanding a business are two completely different conversations

  • How measuring the right things changes the way you make decisions

    If you've ever questioned whether you're the problem when your business isn't producing the results you want, this episode offers a different perspective—and a different place to look.
