Are We a Good Fit?

30 minutes

Curious if we're a good fit to work together?

Let’s talk about it.

I work best with people who care deeply about their work and want to grow without burning out. If that sounds like you, this conversation is a great place to start.

We’ll have a relaxed chat about what you want for your business, what’s getting in your way, and how I might be able to help.

Here’s how the call usually goes:

You’ll tell me about your business. What’s working, what’s not, and what you’re hoping to change or grow.
I’ll tell you how I work. I’ll share how I help service business owners grow, and we’ll see if it feels like a match.
We’ll check for fit. If we’re on the same wavelength, great. If not, that’s okay too.
If it makes sense, we’ll talk next steps. No pressure—just clarity.

Whether we end up working together or not, my goal is for you to walk away with more clarity than you came in with.

Think of it like a test drive for your business—just making sure it’s the right fit before we hit the road together.

Testimonials

In many ways, Ron Tester is perfectly suited to guide leaders who seek to unleash the best version of themselves. As a coach, Ron brings many years of successful experiences running his own profitable business. Beyond that, I have personally experienced how his incisive laser coaching abilities showed me actionable ways to up-level my game. But he has a way of coaching that feels safe, I.e., without judgment. Ron is fearless with the truth. His mild manner and servant heart beautifully complement his acute intellect and his kind sense of humor. I highly endorse Ron as a business coach.

In growing my small business, Ron was able to get me thinking of perspectives I would have not developed without his support. He has the hands-on experience behind him to accelerate the success of small business owners, driven by purpose and care. I would recommend Ron if you are looking to take your business to the next level!

Ron is an excellent professional coach. He has a natural presence during the coaching engagement, which creates an environment ripe for deep thinking and reflection. His patience and supportive style allowed me to explore personal goals with greater focus and deeper examination. Ron’s thoughtfulness and experience shine through in his coaching and no doubt contribute to his coaching success. I highly recommend Ron as a professional coach for anyone looking for professionalism, high ethical character, and a caring professional demeanor.

A. Kay Kripchak, ACC, MPC

Business Coach and Consultant

Ron was unbelievably helpful to me both personally and professionally. I was skeptical about using a small business coach but went ahead and fully committed to Ron and his teachings. After I stepped out of my comfort zone I really started to see the fruit of the labor we put in together and still continue to see it today. Years later I am able to attribute the strength of my company and the fact that I have an organization I now work on and not in to my time being coached. Not to mention that the quality of life with my wife and the boys is now better than ever.

Matt Newton

Business Owner/General Manager

Ron's guidance has been instrumental in helping me grow my physical therapy practice from serving 6-10 patients per week to consistently serving over 30 patients per week. His vast experience as a physical therapist, successful ownership of a home health agency, and exceptional reputation made him the perfect choice as a business strategist.

Ron's input has not only helped me avoid numerous headaches by steering me in the right direction with business decisions but has also helped me maintain a healthy work-life balance.

His integrity, focus on personal growth, and ability to foster key relationships with patients, caregivers, referral sources, and other healthcare providers have given me greater peace of mind, confidence, and motivation to continue moving forward. Working with Ron has been one of the best decisions I have made. I highly recommend him for his superior outcomes as a business owner, growth strategist, and physical therapist, as well as for the heart he integrates into all he does.

Matt Bonander, PT

Owner of Focused Care Rehab

As a former client and colleague of Ron Tester, I can personally attest to how absolutely wonderful his style of coaching is. Ron makes you feel like you are the most important person in the world. His care, compassion, knowledge, intense desire for you to be successful, and much more motivate you to be the best you can be. Ron understands the ups and downs of business ownership because he owned a very successful business that he worked in every day for a long time. He has the education, knowledge, experience (both good and bad), and personality that are a perfect fit for any client in any industry or any type of business.

Katrina McPherson, LNHA

Business Owner and Course Creator

Having known and worked with Ron for six years, I can say that he is one of the most genuinely caring and compassionate men I know. His sense of discernment and objectivity in all matters gives Ron the effortless ability to lead as an administrator. I highly recommend jumping on any opportunity to use Ron's services, whether in physical therapy or business coaching.
