Lorrie Green,

5 stars! Dave is very motivated and committed to helping people grow their business! He has a lot of experience and is very professional!


Reginald Doc Porter,

Dave is great at what he does. Every business owner benefits from good coaching. It's just sometimes hard to find the right coach. But, Dave is definitely someone to trust and you'll know why when you hire him. I didn't feel obligated to pay for his services any longer than I felt I needed. This made me feel comfortable using him. A coach worth his services doesn't need to lock you into some long-term contract. I highly recommend Dave Lakin.


Jason Quick,

Dave Lakin has a unique way of applying his vast knowledge and experience to positively impact any situation. He serves as a trusted advisor and supporter and helps keep the target in focus. While most coaches tend to tell you what you want to hear, Dave tells you what you need to hear in order to be successful. I wholeheartedly recommend Dave to anyone seeking to take a business to the next level!

LaTonia Powers,

One word. Accountability! As a sole proprietor it's easy to let myself off the hook for not getting some things done. After all, there's so much to do. Knowing that Dave is going to ask what did you do this week, I consciously spend more time doing the things that matter. Knowing where to spend time in the business is as important. Dave is an awesome coach.

Sheila Marr, President Southern Valley Services, LLC Athens, Alabama

“I highly recommend Dave Lakin with Action Coach to grow your business. My husband and I own a growing small company and I have found my coaching provided by Dave to be extremely valuable for a number of reasons. The advice he has given has either dovetailed or reinforced what I am hearing internally about how I need to change my behaviors to change my role in the company. Dave has the ability to understand not just what will make us successful in our business now but will help us full fill our personal goals, by not working in the business but working on the business so that we will have time to enjoy our personal time and meet personal goals. Dave helps to hold our feet to the fire on accomplishing the steps to meet the short term and long terms goals that we have set. Dave has helped us to see that we can achieve much more than we had originally dreamed and helped us to move forward faster in accomplishing our goals helping us stay focused on the tasks need to meet them. ”


Nadine Wormsbacher, Licensed Massage Therapist

“I attended Dave’s training on 23 June. It was really worthwhile! He shined a spot light on some areas where entrepreneurs traditionally don’t look, but they need to start! He views the P&L differently than most people do, and uses it as an actual tool. It was the first time that I’ve understood how to calculate what my price per hour should be, from a business perspective, vs just making a WAG. I highly recommend attending any presentations he offers. Thanks Dave!”
