Do any of these 3 sound familiar?
1. You know you want to build something, but not what
• You have several ideas, and each one seems right for a week
• You've been saying "next year" for a few years now and haven't made any progress
• You start, then stop, because you're not sure it's the right idea to invest your time into
2. Your business is growing, but not the way you planned
• Revenue has plateaued, and the next level seems to need more of your hours
• Sales, delivery, decisions all go through you
• Your business model and marketing seem outdated as AI changes everything
• You've tried AI tools, but none of them turned into systems with AI workforce.
3. You want the Launchpad, but the group format doesn't fit
• The cohort dates clash with your role, your travel or your family
• Your project is confidential, or you'd rather work through it privately
• You want to reach your goals at your own speed and with 1on1 support for your business
Why it keeps happening
It's rarely a lack of talent, effort or ideas.
In more than 1,000 business projects I've coached in 10 years, the same three causes come up:
• The business runs on you, not on systems. Growth means more hours, so growth stops when your calendar is full.
• Decisions rest on instinct, not evidence. The idea, the pricing or the business model were never stress-tested, so every choice feels like a risk.
• Nobody built the plan around your situation. Generic courses assume unlimited time. You have a career, a family and real constraints.
How we fix it
WHY, WHO, WHAT, HOW.
Each path is individual, yet follows the Weatherproof Business® Method
We clarify why you're building, what you're truly motivated to build and what your skills and constraints allow.
Then we use structured design thinking to choose one direction and design its first test with real customers.
Goal: one idea you're confident enough to test.
1. Start: the WHY path
2. Scale: the HOW path
We stress-test your business model and pricing, build an acquisition system that doesn't depend on one platform, and set up AI systems that take repetitive work off your plate, for example with Claude Cowork.
Goal: a business that grows without needing more of your hours.
3. The Launchpad, privately
You follow the full Weatherproof Business® Launchpad on your own schedule, with my 1:1 guidance at every step.
Goal: a validated offer and a waitlist of first customers.
- Robert Berry, Audit Trainer and Keynote Speaker
A second Scorecard evaluation shows your progress against the starting point. We wrap up with a roadmap to move forward on your own.
5. Exit review & roadmap
So a blocking question doesn't wait for the next call.
4. Email support between sessions
60 minutes each, online, in English or French, scheduled around your calendar. AI mentoring happens inside these sessions whenever it serves your goals.
3. 10 sessions over 5 to 6 months.
If we're a fit, we agree on measurable goals, and your Scorecard evaluation sets the starting point.
2. Your 6-month plan.
We look at your business, your goals and what's in the way. You leave with your strategy and next steps, whether or not we continue.

Your right to change your mind: Your coaching contract includes a 14-day withdrawal period from the day you sign. Nothing is charged during those 14 days: you pre-approve the payment on Stripe, and it's charged only once the period has ended.
Using your corporate training budget? Your employer can be invoiced directly.
The 3-session guarantee
Three sessions is when clients start seeing tangible results. So give it three. If after your third session it isn't a fit and you don't see progress, you can cancel and I refund every unused session.
I also coach on INSEAD executive programmes and run the Weatherproof Business® Launchpad. To give every private client real attention between sessions, I work with 5 clients at a time.
