BUSINESS COACH AUSTRALIA
Grow Your Business.
Get Your Life Back.
Sean Soole is a business coach and mentor who works with established Australian business owners. With 30 years in business and more than two decades mentoring founders, he helps owners grow profitably, work fewer hours, and build a business that gives them their life back.
Sean works with owners through three channels: The Inner Circle, his one-on-one mentoring program capped at 100 members; live events and workshops run across Australia; and keynote speaking for organisations that want their leadership teams to think differently about growth.
You Started This for Freedom
You probably did not start your business to work 60-hour weeks and check emails at the dinner table.
Most owners launch with a picture of what life could look like: more control over their income, more say over their schedule, the ability to build something that matters. Then the business grows, the team grows, and somewhere along the way, it flips. The business starts running you.
You know your trade inside out. But running the business behind it is a different skill set, and nobody teaches you that part. You are making big decisions alone, second-guessing most of them, and the idea of taking a proper break feels impossible without things slipping.
That gap between where you are and where you planned to be is exactly where a good business coach makes the biggest difference. It is the work Sean has done with hundreds of owners across Australia, and it starts with building you as a leader first, then your business.
Three Ways to Work with Sean
1. The Inner Circle (One-on-One Mentoring)
The Inner Circle is Sean’s core business coaching program. Membership is capped at 100, and every owner gets regular one-on-one coaching, access to 20+ mentor specialists, including Sean himself, and a community of founders who genuinely support each other.
The Mission & Basecamp framework maps your path from where you are now to a defined goal, building in leadership, strategy, systems and accountability along the way. Members also get live quarterly events, masterminds and a library of practical tools on business growth.

Sean runs two-day Freedom Business Summits in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and other cities throughout the year. These are working events where you bring your actual numbers and your challenges, and you leave with a plan you can act on Monday morning.
They are also a great way to experience how Sean coaches and meet other owners before deciding if ongoing mentoring is right for you.

Sean is a keynote speaker on leadership, business ownership and conscious growth. He has shared stages with Gary Vaynerchuk, Michael Gerber and Jocko Willink, and speaks at conferences, industry events and corporate sessions across Australia and internationally.
If your organisation is looking for a business strategy coach who leaves you thinking differently, Sean is worth a conversation.

Owners who work with Sean consistently say the same things: they are working fewer hours, making more money, enjoying their business again and getting their life back.
The early wins usually come from clearing bottlenecks, improving delegation, and getting focused on the activities that move revenue and profit. Within a few months, most members have bought back meaningful time in their week and feel like they are running the business again instead of the other way around.

- We are already starting to see significant growth in the business after only 4 to 5 months. I would say it has either put us 20 years ahead of the times or if you reverse engineer it he may have saved us from being left behind.

What Business Owners Say About The Inner Circle
EXCELLENT Based on 60 reviews Posted on Google daniel whiteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Epic content, not only business development but life-changing also!!Posted on Google AlexTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sean has a rare combination of integrity and competence. If his gut tells him you are about to make the wrong choice, he will tell you straight, that kind of honesty is hard to find and it is exactly what you want from someone guiding your business. Sean and the team genuinely values giving you high quality advice tailored to your situation rather than the generic. Everything he shares is practical and actionable, so you walk away knowing exactly what to do next rather than sitting on a pile of theory. His thinking is also incredibly transferable. The principles apply to any business, and he has a real talent for breaking complex ideas down into analogies that actually stick with you long after the conversation ends. If you are serious about growing, Sean and his team are well worth your time.Posted on Google Sonal AgarwalTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Meet Sean Soole
Sean has spent 30 years building, acquiring, merging and selling 25 businesses across seven industries. He has made the mistakes, earned the lessons, and done the hard yards that most business coaches only read about.
Over the last two decades, he has taken that experience and put it to work as a business growth coach for founders across Australia, from tradies turning over $750k to companies doing $50m.
His approach starts with the owner: your mindset, your leadership, your decisions. Strategy, systems and growth follow from there. Build a better leader and the business follows.
Who This Is For
Sean’s coaching is built for established small and medium business owners, typically turning over between $750k and $50m, with healthy net profit. You are good at what you do. You have hit a ceiling you cannot push through alone, and you are open to having someone challenge how you think about your business and your life.
If you are a brand-new start-up or running below roughly $100k in net profit, this is probably not the right fit right now. Sean will tell you that on the first call.
That honesty is part of what keeps the community strong and the results consistent. Most members are ambitious small business owners who are done trying to figure it all out alone.
How to Get Started
The first step is a no-pressure conversation with one of Sean’s expert mentors. You apply online, book a time, and have an honest chat about where your business is and whether coaching is the right move for you. Nobody talks money until the fit is confirmed both ways.
From there, you move into the program at Basecamp One and start working toward your own defined mission. Regular one-on-one coaching sessions, a structured plan, and the accountability to keep you moving between them. Sean and his team are alongside you the whole way.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does working with Sean look like week to week?
Most members have a regular one-on-one coaching session, usually on a fortnightly rhythm, plus a few hours acting on what they agree to between sessions.

Within a few months, most members are working fewer hours and seeing stronger results in their revenue and profit.
Can I attend an event before committing to The Inner Circle?

How quickly do members typically see results?
