#10 Ian Proctor - Building a Business, Handling Heartbreak and Achieving Flow State

My intention for my interview-style sessions is to showcase to the listeners the impact coaching can have on our performance and, when done correctly, how it can unlock our true potential. So, I wanted to bring real clients onto the show and have a conversation about their journey, experience, and results from coaching, as well as insights and wisdom my clients would like to share with listeners. In this unique interview-style episode, I spoke with my client, Ian Proctor, founder of Digital Edge. Ian shares his unique journey from starting Digital Edge with no clients to building a solid business with 7 staff members and becoming an expert in building Wix websites. This episode is loaded with insights for business leaders and entrepreneurs, and I had a good laugh recording it. How Ian went from having no clients working in his conservatory to building a business that creates multiple 6 figures per year. How Ian and his business partner Graham tried to get their first client, they wouldn't recommend you try this LOL. Ian's golden rule in business is never settling and the drive he creates for himself and his team. Ian shares the truth about the entrepreneurial journey and is honest about its highs and lows. The No.1 principle forgotten by many business owners, and it's what can make the difference between success and failure. Ian shares the impact my coaching has had on his life and business, and we discuss his four-year journey as a client/coach. Why trying to force and push things is detrimental to achieving success.We discuss the power of flow and being in a flow state. Ian shares why coaching is critical for all people in business and gives his personal reasons as to why. The 3 most important words I asked Ian and why everyone needs to be asked this from time to time. Links to Ian: Website: https://www.wearedigitaledge.co.uk/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ian-proctor-a4616b67To connect with me beyond my podcast, head over to my social media channels Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidwilkinsoncoach/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidwilkinsoncoaching/ Website: www.iamdavidwilkinson.com
