Sherry Jordan hosts an annual planning session that has been very beneficial to my business.  In addition to helping us to plan the year she also brought up a lot of good points regarding business practices.  As a result of that day of planning and listening to guest speakers, I ended up hiring the attorney at the event to help me through the corporation process.  Prior to that, I was a sole proprietor.  It's one more better business practice that I am grateful to have in place.  I am so glad I went to that event. Thank you Sherry!

Sherry makes me feel extremely comfortable, and she genuinely cares about my over all well being. Every appointment she emails me a recap of our time together. She has really opened my eyes to all of the possibilities available to me in my life. I would recommend everyone use her services.

It was not unexpected to me when I went to write a review on NCG and saw how many five star reviews there were.
My personal experience with the business has been marked by integrity, excellent service and an ability to guide your business through rough waters with clarity and apt recommendations.
I've used NCG as a business coach for 7 years. I'd never switch to another coach.
Sherry Jordan has an ability to see with 20 20 vision what you need to consider changing to be more profitable and pleased in your business. Her ideas are creative and have proven to save my sanity in business many a time. For example, when I felt overwhelmed by my business, Sherry did an analysis of what segments of photography I was targeting and the revenues from each. From that, she determined that I should cease marketing in 2 segments that weren't giving me the revenues I wanted. From that action, I sharply reduced my stress load and was able to grow my business in other segments by targeted marketing. She also factored in my passions for different types of work. We also talked about how I spend my networking time and the payback from each organization I belonged to.
I asked Sherry to fit my preference for hearing advice frankly, and she really listened and performed accordingly. She can also deal very well with people who are moved more effectively through different styles.
Going to a coach is something I've benefited from tremendously. It is SO worth any investment. Going to any coach other than NCG or Sherry would be a waste; why pass up the best?

We continue to use the services that Northwest Coaching Group provides from our yearly business planning, individual coaching and employee coaching. After several years of working with this company, we are happily at a place in our lives where we are focused more on balance than growth. It's incredible to be hear and we must give credit where credit is due. Highly recommend!!

I have been a client of Northwest Coaching Group for over a year now, and I cannot say enough good things about their services.  I originally found them via Angie's List when I didn't even know places like this existed.  I was a small business owner trying to do everything myself while struggling to maintain a healthy and rewarding personal life.  I knew I needed some kind of assistance, but wasn't sure what I needed.  Northwest Coaching Group was exactly what I needed - they provide support and resources to keep me accountable, focused, and motivated within my business while also helping me keep my eye on the prize - a healthy and happy personal life!  I continue to be a client because I see my business and my personal life directly benefitting on an ongoing basis.  The services they offer are worth every penny and I recommend them to everyone I possibly can!

It is wild to me what just an hour with a seasoned coach can do for you!  Sherry Jordan listened intently to the current questions and challenges I am facing as the owner of a massage therapy practice.  Over the course of an hour she was able to help me clarify my short-term and long-term vision for my business.  
While I appreciate coaching that has a spiritual bent and encourages "manifesting", etc., sometimes you just need practical advice!  I deeply appreciated Sherry's willingness to act as consultant. I left our meeting with concrete changes I could implement that day, as well as long term goals and changes to make over time.  Very empowering!  Sherry's warmth and practicality were so refreshing and helpful!  Thank you!

As our coaching has continued she has been able to recommend multiple business partners from book keepers to graphic designers who have helped take my business from infancy into adolescents. I believe we set excessive financial goals at the beginning of working with Sherry, but in the year that I?ve worked with her I?ve had to increase these goals three separate times due to my rapid growth. I can?t recommend Sherry highly enough for any of her business coaching or yearly business planning and look forward to our continued work in the coming years.

Sherry brings to the table such a huge breadth of knowledge.  I am a small business owner who also works with my spouse, and Sherry is always prepared to deal with my latest challenge whether it is personal, professional, or a combination of the two.  I have yet to present her with an issue that she doesn't have excellent feedback about.  I always leave her office feeling better about myself and my business (and I have the results to back up the good feeling).  I highly value her advice/guidance, and give her my highest recommendation.

I recently had the opportunity to attend the year end planning event for small business owners presented by Sherry Jordan of the Northwest Coaching Group.  Unlike many career and business planning events I have attended in the past, ?Planning with Purpose? actually gave me understandable and manageable tools to systematically work through the myriad of questions to be answered in order to clearly set business goals for the upcoming year.  While the amount of information seems overwhelming, the Northwest Coaching Group is right there encouraging and counseling me along the way, providing a comprehensive and challenging process to answer those questions and help me determine my goals.  It has been hard work, but well worth the investment in my career.

It's time to update my review.  If I could give Sherry a higher grade, I would because she deserves it.  I've done business plans for several years with Sherry and each year we meet or exceed our goals.  When we first started, we were working out of house with one or two employees.  We've grown to 16 employees, moved into a shop and more than quadrupled our sales.  We are the highest rated company in our category on Angie's List and are one of the most respected companies in our field thanks to the help and guidance of our business coach.  This has all been achieved with Sherry holding our hand.  I also send my key employees to Sherry now and that's a benefit to the employee and to the business as she works on setting goals and working the bugs out with them.
I've just completed a long range plan with Sherry and I am more excited than ever because of where my company is heading.  You can bet that I will be working with Sherry as long a she will have me.  I've recommended Sherry to several of my business associates and each one of them is just as happy with her services as I am.  She's not just limited to business coaching either.  I think of her more as a life coach.  She's very educated and dialed into her clients needs.  I super highly recommend NW Business Coaching!!

Sherry Jordan is an amazing resource. I?ve run my own business since 1994. Over those years, I?ve been given all sorts of advice. I?ve attended countless workshops, seminars, and conferences about growing my business. None of those have been as valuable as my business planning time with Sherry Jordan. She has been my Business Coach for about 3 years now. In that time, my growth has been focused and strong. I know I would have eventually reached my goals on my own, but having Sherry as a guide has made that journey much easier and more efficient. Sherry has a great sense for looking at a business from the outside, and distilling the challenges into something recognizable. Once I know what the real problem is, Sherry will help me create a task list with my next steps.
I would highly recommend Sherry Jordan at Northwest Coaching Group to any Business Owner.

I have had the pleasure of working with Sherry Jordan monthly for over a year now and she continues to provide me with invaluable guidance and insight as an executive coach who fully understands the challenges and pitfalls of owning a small business. She is a visionary who can inspire and motivate without overwhelming, and her leadership training is truly excellent. I consider Sherry to be one of my most trusted confidants and powerful advocates. The time I spend with her is an important investment in my business success, and I wholeheartedly recommend Sherry to anyone looking for effective coaching with measurable results.

I don?t know where to begin when talking about how great my experience has been with Sherry Jordan and Northwest Coaching Group.  My husband and I have been running our own business for almost 4 years.  We had been doing well enough on our own but recently realized we were stuck in a rut and we couldn?t come up with many new ideas or plans for the business.  We went to Sherry Jordan and we were amazed by how quickly she grasped our individual and personal views of the business, what we are trying to accomplish and what we need to do to reach the goals in order to grow our business the way we want to grow it.

Sherry has helped us put together a business plan, including specific action items, which are really helping to keep us on track and moving forward with our goals, no matter how big or small they may be.  Sherry makes herself available via phone and email for our quick questions and she is always eager to give us praise when we reach certain goals.  I believe that having Sherry in our lives is not only making us better business owners, but better people as well.

Sherry has helped turn my business around in the past two years.  She has great knowledge in all areas of business and business planning.  She will connect you with the best people if you are in need of any advice or services and you do not know who to call.  I signed up to meet with Sherry two years ago and have met with her one or two times a month since then to help us grow our business.  Business is better than ever now and I give a lot of the credit to Sherry for working with us and always being willing to help if we have a problem.  Her rates are very reasonable for what you receive and she even provides free classes to her clients on a quarterly basis.  I highly recommend speaking with her if you have a business that you would like to take to the next level.

Sherry Jordon has been my business coach for years now and has helped me grow my little painting company into a thriving corporation with over 500 percent growth in the past three years.  She has also helped me tremendously with my relationships and partnership.  It's amazing how much Sherry's guidance and support has impacted my life.  I've reviewed Sherry on Angie's List in the past, but want to add an updated report because of a crisis we were having with a family member.  The crisis was unexpected and tragic and Sherry's help impacted the family and changed my sisters life (the one in crisis) in such a positive way.  The advice was simple and straightforward, but something I would have missed on my own because of the emotional turmoil I was experiencing.  I  owe Sherry a debt of gratitude and give NW Coaching Group my highest recommendation.

I met with Sherry recently and was pleasantly surprised at how much coaching she gave me just in the short time I was able to spend with her. She was in her element and on task as soon as we sat down and her attitude about givers gain was apparent right from the start.  

 Her holistic approach to the challenges and problem I was describing to her was refreshing to me. So when Sherry and I began chatting about my issues, she did not rush the conversation, in fact it was just the opposite. She slowed it down so she could fully understand what I was describing to her in the context of the larger conversation.  

 Using a method that can only be described as thorough and practical, I would recommend Sherry as a Business Coach to anyone in need of seasoned business advice.

Meeting Sherry at Northwest Coaching Group has been one of the biggest boosts to our business this year.  She has a talented way of helping people think outside the box to identify new business opportunities and then coaches on how to incorporate them into a robust action-oriented business plan.  Sherry demonstrates the importance of relationships through her kind, generous yet forthright coaching approach.  I recommend Sherry to business owners who are starting out and those serious about taking their business to the next level.

I was given Sherry Jordan's name by a friend of mine who had been working with Sherry and had phenomenal success.  I called Sherry, made and appointment and we set up a plan of meetings, topics, basically an agenda and then we got to work.

I have been working with Sherry Jordan since Oct 2010. One of the greatest gifts I have ever given to myself is to work with this amazing business coach, Sherry Jordan. She has helped me create and focus on my business plan, prioritize my daily activities, and become much more efficient in my medical practice. Sherry is also an incredible sounding board; she has helped me gain understanding and insight not only on business matters, but on personal matters also. Sherry Jordan has helped me achieve and surpass each of my financial and clinical goals. After each session with her, I watch my company grow and flourish to the next level, due to her input and support. I highly recommend her to any small business owner who would like to see their dreams and business aspirations come into fruition.
