How I GOT HERE
​

Before I launched this consulting company, and before I wrote my first book, I was an overachiever in both Corporate America and the military. Even though I was considered to be successful at my job, I still was full of self-doubt and many limiting beliefs. I didn't know that being a business coach and marketing consultant could have this much of an impact. 
​
Like many Corporate America staffers, I found myself working long nights and well into the weekend. I was moving up fast in my career, but could barely stay standing at the end of the day. I was 25 going on 50 and I could feel every bit of it. That was until I decided to committed myself to learning everything I could about building a business and marketing. 

I got bit by the entrepreneurial bug when I got my feet wet in the network-marketing space, which took me on a journey down leadership and personal development. I then, eventually, came across the freelance writing profession and started my own freelance writing business. I became a ferocious reader, reading anything and everything I could about freelance writing, writing the industry, publishing, journalism, copywriting, and the list goes on and on.

Fast-forward, I made my first $100 dollar check writing a blog post for a client, and then, the following week I received a $700 dollar check for a series of different writing projects. That was when I realized there was something to this thing, a spark lit up under me, and then I started teaching others how to do the same thing I was doing. And I've never looked back.

I had the pleasure of working with William when he offered to write a blog post for my website. He impressed me right of the bat with a personalized and well-researched pitch, then he blew me away with a compelling article that required zero revisions. To top it off, William demonstrated a strong work ethic, he kept his word, delivered on time, and was quick to respond. Any organization would be lucky to have a writer like him.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: 
​

1) How Much Does it Cost to Work With a Coach or Consultant From William Ballard Enterprise? 

​
​We work with entrepreneurs and small business owners of all sizes. For this reason, we have done our best to provide custom coaching and consulting packages of all sizes.  We believe there must be an ROI on all services provided and work hard to give that value every day. Our average client spends $1,600 a month with us for 1-on-1 coaching and consulting. 
​

2) Is There a Minimum Commitment?
​

It depends on the coaching or service package we put together, but most often there is a 6-month minimum four our 1-on-1 coaching and consulting service. 

​The reason we require a 6-month commitment is that we are focused on providing sustainable growth. Based on the amount of time spent with your coach each month to move the business at the right speed, it can often take a few months before you start seeing manageable results.

With that said, our goal is to become your business partner and pay for ourselves 10X over.
​

3) How is My Coach or Consultant Chosen For Me? 
​

Through our discovery process, we will administer an assessment to help us understand your personality type and learning style, as well as the specific goals you are trying to accomplish. 

Once we have determined those things, we will then carefully select a coach or consultant for you based on the needs of your business and your particular learning style. 

4) How Do I Create an Online Business & Coaching Programs Like Yours? 

This is something that I can teach you how to do during our coaching and consulting sessions. 
​

5) Where Can I Get Your Book? 


​Believe it or not, I still get asked how people can get a copy of the first book I ever wrote -- The True Writer's Life: Discovering The Author and Finisher of Our Faith.

I am sorry to say, but it is, unfortunately, out of print and available only in e-book format at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Indigo Chapters retail outlet store in Canada. 

I might have a few physical copies lying around here somewhere. If you really want a copy I suggest emailing me at william@williamballard.org with the subject line: How Do I Get My Physical Copy of The True Writer's Life? and I will see what I can do from there. 
​

6) Do You Have Any Other Books? 


​I'm currently working on a new book. The title is still to be determined. It will fall under the Personal and Professional Development category. It will be divided into three parts -- height, width, and depth, which is how we define dimensions. 

Height will have to do with developing skills and moving up levels. Width will have to do with relationship building and nurturing, networking, emotional intelligence etc. Depth will have to do with the spiritual aspect of achieving success, such as, attitude, beliefs, creativity, inspiration, etc. 

​It is something I've been really passionate about for a while now and I can't wait to share with you.
