I have collected some of the most common themes and conversations I have with clients over the year and built (an ever expanding) library of FREE content that will give you tools, templates & tutorials you can start using immediately to get you thinking in new ways.
I am constantly adding new content so please drop me an email with topics you would like me to cover.
I have categorised all the content into 4 'packs' covering the 4 important areas for you running your agency. So simply select your PACK below to explore the books (if you want to see all the books in one place, click here.)
Of course, if you want more detailed insight then click on the purple banner at the bottom of the page and book a FREE strategy session with me.
I have 30+ years of commercial business experience. After beginning my career by working in various blue chip companies, I took the leap In 1991 to start my own marketing, PR and design agency. Over the next 11 years, I grew the business into an award-winning agency with 25 staff and revenues in excess of £1.5m. In 2002, I sold the business and then retrained to become a coach and mentor. Since forming Da Costa Coaching in 2007, I have helped over 450 agencies to grow in a sustainable, profitable and enjoyable way.
I have been working with Rob since founding my business 5 years ago. I chose him thanks to a personal recommendation from a colleague who had worked with Rob and also because he had experience of running his own successful agency in the past. Rob's coaching has helped me gain clarity on how I want my business to develop and given me a clear sense of direction. I can also think of several occasions where Rob's advice has enabled me to win a client I would not otherwise have won and also to charge higher fees than I would otherwise have done. I genuinely believe my business would not be where it is today without Rob's input.
Founder, The PPC Machine
Rob has been a 'critical friend' to me and my business for some years. A couple of years ago he knew I was struggling with defining my services and positioning and that my business was suffering as a result. He asked me one simple question that immediately gave me clarity, direction and a sense of purpose in my business, and set me on the road to my current success, running a business with a six figure turnover, travelling the world doing something I love and get well paid for it. What was that one question? You'll need to work with Rob to find out.
Public Speaking Coach
Rob has been working with us for a few years and has helped us niche down and focus. As a result we got rid of some bad fit clients and our culture improved massively. Revenue has grown by 100% and more importantly, profit by 300%. Today we are completely different business and I can't recommend Rob enough!
