Service Description
Where do you want to go and how will you get there? As a consultant, I bring in my expertise on the subject and, as a coach, I help you find your own answers. My approach is to use a blend of both so we can find the best solutions for your needs.
What Does A Consulting Session Involve?
Appointments vary depending upon your needs and if it is a phone or an in-person appointment.
Phone appointments
• You call me
• 1 hour in length
• We start by: a) having you identify what you hope to accomplish or, b) sharing what’s on your mind and, together, we figure out the session priorities.
• Next we talk about the details of the subject and discuss specific ways to get the results you want. This takes the form of me asking you several questions and/or sharing my expertise. We explore various options to help you move forward.
• We identify the next steps, come up with a specific plan and discuss if you would like to use me as a source of accountability.
• Finally, we recap the plan and set up the next time to talk, where appropriate.
In-Person
The in-person appointments follow the same basic structure of the phone appointments with the major difference being that we have the option of doing hands-on work. There is a minimum of two hours for in-person appointments, which usually gives us enough time to work on the project in detail and accomplish much more than over the phone. If it is outside the Minneapolis area, the length of the appointment time is expanded and travel fees apply.
How Many Appointments Do We Have?
We set up appointments based upon your needs. Some clients like work together one-time per month to help them stay focused, produce results and to know they have someone available to assist them with whatever comes up. Others work with me in bursts to get them through a particular situation or project. We might have several sessions one month and none for the rest of the year. What matters most is that when you need a Coach or a consultation, you have someone available to connect with.
Fees
The fees for my services are $75 per hour. For half or full-day sessions and/or when travel is involved, the fees vary.
Where To Begin, Or To Schedule A Session
Before we even begin working together, let's talk to make sure we are a good fit for each other. That initial conversation is no charge and the most efficient way to reach me to set up a time to talk is via email at Linda@InventingCoach.com. I am also available at 952-405-6910 (USA, Central Time).
Coaching & Consulting Testimonials
I have worked with Linda, since 2003, and consider her a close friend and colleague. Linda knows the inventing process. After bringing her own products to market she has learned what it takes to be successful. I personally call Linda now to get advice and a second opinion. She will help you learn what it takes to be successful in the inventing game.

Your advise was very helpful and assisted me in having a very good meeting with a company. I just got a draft
contract today.

Your knowledge and expertise have been invaluable. I just signed a NDA with a company and sent them a sell sheet and a link to my video last night, and they've already responded. They think it is a great idea and my product has been forwarded to the VP of Marketing for review. I really appreciate all your time and guidance.
Jason L.
Doing the impromptu product photo shoot with you at my booth and your eye-opening input on my sell sheet was the highlight of exhibiting at the show. I cannot believe I was making “duh” mistakes like the masses until you pointed them out to me. You have an eye for perfection and can simplify the most complex things to make them attractive and sellable. You truly care about people’s success and are great at what you do.

By watching you redesign someone's sell sheet, I learned more in 10 minutes than I have from all the seminars I've attended.

You are really good. After talking with you this morning, I realized why I've not been having much luck and know what I need to do now.

Your expertise and skills are extraordinary. It is wonderful to have someone I can trust so simplicity. Your abundance of wisdom and skills make such an important difference in the lives of those to whom you so generously give of your gifts. You are deeply appreciated!

Thank you for the support, and for educating me, on the next steps to take to move forward towards my dreams. You are a positive influence.

Linda has an innovative and enthusiastic approach. Her intuitive outside the box approach leaves you breathless with the simplicity yet spot on accuracy of her inspiring solutions. Linda not only hears what you say but also listens with a problem solver’s ear. Her broad knowledge of learning styles gives her the unique ability to set aside the idea of “one right way” to do something and, instead, to fully utilize her client’s own personal strengths to develop insight to their problems. If you are looking for a Coach that can envision all the possibilities and help you originate and implement creative solutions for your unique needs, you want Linda Pollock in your life!
