Testimonial from Christina Dozier - Success Coaching
I reached out about Success Coaching feeling unsure of the next steps in my business, grateful that it had grown, but feeling like the business was running me - I was working until 11-12 every night, at least one full day each weekend, and I missed my husband and time with my son. Success Coaching promised to help me grow my business while working the same amount or less. I was so burnt out that I was more than ready. I would've settled for the same amount of business with a little more of my life back!
When Eli called me to assess me as a candidate for coaching, I was open and honest - our conversation was short but got straight to the heart of the matter - I was fine with the fee in exchange for the help and I was ready to have the conversations to do the work - so Eli accepted me as a coaching client!
Eli is absolutely a master of his craft - he deeply understands DISC profiles and takes the time to also ensure he understands his clients' motivations, fears, limiting beliefs, even body language - and uses his skills to help you break down barriers to your own success. Make no mistake - you'll set the goals, and you'll do the work - but he'll lead you to insights you'd never discover on your own and help you realize what you're fully capable of. I always leave our coaching sessions feeling more focused, uplifted, and less stressed.
To put it more quantitatively...7 months into coaching with Eli, I have:
- only worked a few weekend hours over the last two months
-purchased our forever home on a large lot with a home office, second dog and plenty of outdoor space for my family
-Become a certified mentor
-Set clear goals that brought business priorities into focus and got me into "action" mode
-now pick up my 3 year old from school before 5 almost every day
-capped and then gone on to write my "icon deal" - when it closes I'll be icon status with several months to spare before my cap resets
-Hired and trained my own full time in-house virtual assistant
-Applied for an EXP team, written my team agreement and am actively interviewing for buyers agents
-Moved into taking predominantly listings
-Am on my first kid-free vacation ever, and taken several family trips and vacations (something I felt to guilty or overwhelmed to allow myself to do previously!)
-Worked through a marketing training program that I purchased over a year ago but could never schedule myself to do
-Joined a church that is a PERFECT fit for our family
-have time to read books for pleasure!
-Learned to release relationships or people with negative opinions that don't support me, allowing room for friendships and relationships with people who have similar dreams, ambition, marriages and willingness to support one another
-Been sober for over six months, an important fitness and health goal for me
-Maintained a regular exercise routine
-Stopped working in the evenings - allowing for downtime and family time
-learned important skills like future pacing, meditation, time blocking
-adopted and began actually routinely using a CRM
-begun learning the basics of NLP, anchoring and tapping
...looking back on these last several months, I cannot believe I've experienced so many positive changes - success coaching won't just 10X your business...it's truly a WHOLE LIFE UPGRADE...holistic coaching with Eli has changed my life and I will absolutely always treasure our coaching relationship!

Testimonial from Stephanie Wells - Success Coaching
You may think, like I did, that coaching was sitting and listening to someone tell you how to use their systems. And in that case you'd be wrong.
When I spoke with a mentor about hiring a coach he asked me what I wanted. I said I was decently skilled, had no formal training and thought I should be able to do more business. He asked us (me and my husband) a few questions, and paired us up with Eli and we've jived so well since day 1. My husband and I were really at a crossroads, we work super well together, we wanted to be able to take our respective businesses and run them simultaneously with the same underlying ambitions. We just had no idea how to get there. Eli told us on the very first day this wasn't marriage counseling. And we didn't need that, our marriage was rock solid. And ultimately that's why my husband and I didn't want to work together, I was scared to ruin our marriage just to go make money. And money without a partner to enjoy life with isn't worth it.
In 1 year with weekly coaching with Eli we've hired 6 employees, we've gotten our weekends back, and we are so focused on exactly what we want and where we want to go. For the first time in a long time I totally think we can get there. I feel like our business is stable and it's something worth showing up for. I feel like we're "doing the thing" but it looks like we want it to. There is a market correction coming, but I could care less because a year of coaching has given me the confidence to take it on and come out the other side.
Weekly, through working with, Eli he pulls the answers out of us. I'm working towards these goals I've set more diligently because I chose them for myself. They aren't some preset path I'm half following. I'm a rockstar at putting on a brave face and plowing through anything thrown at me, and Eli sees right through it and digs down to give me the tools to succeed with these traits: confidence, contentment and ambition. Just enough of all three seems to be my recipe for success.
I want it to be noted that this was our first experience with professional coaching. We were spoiled. If you are on the fence, mark my words, this is the most valuable decision you can make for your future.

Testimonial from Ruth Sheahan - Success Coaching
I met Eli Schaugh by happenstance, but thank goodness I listened! Coaching with him changes my business and my life. Asking powerful questions, he helps me explore and implement the answers. He guides me to the core of my issues, helping me think differently and examine my patterns. Don't ever tell Eli you'll "try". He never lets me off the hook because he cares deeply about my success.

Testimonial from Christian Harris - Success Coaching
"What got you here, won't get you there"
I've done coaching before but it was nothing like Success Coaching. I wanted to double my business income in 2022 but didn't know how. Eli has been absolutely amazing in helping me holistically discover where I'm at, not just in my business but also helping uncover what makes me tick and motivates me. Eli helped me develop a plan of focused activities that I was actually willing and excited to do and is always helping me uncover my limiting beliefs holding me back so I can see what is possible... and then helping me do whats necessary to get there.
Eli is like a mindset Yoda, turning my previously "unattainable" goals into Achievable Outcomes. Not yet half-way through the year and I've already made the same income this year, as I did all of last year and now the momentum, new healthy habits and mindset have set in and are driving my big results in a business I love, so that I have the time and financial freedom to really focus on what I love in life.
I truly am grateful for the clarity, results and insights Eli has brought to my life.

Testimonial from Brian Simmons - Success Coaching
Working with Eli has absolutely, without question, improved my life! I'm a better husband, father, leader, and Realtor because of his holistic approach and commitment to my success. He asks the right questions and takes the time to help me work through my thoughts to discover the answers myself. Not only is it effective, it's also empowering and creates a level of self-confidence that I never knew was there. I'm beyond grateful for his guidance and coaching.

Testimonial from Gilad Paz - Professional Success & Life Coaching
Eli has been a light in a year where the world has been mostly dim...
I connected with Eli when I was thinking about going into the coaching field myself, and our conversations led me to taking the plunge for both creating my own practice and for working with him.
Being an entrepreneur with multiple businesses can get pretty daunting, especially when your industries (in my case music and real estate) are one big question mark during a global pandemic, but Eli has helped me keep perspective and an achievement mindset throughout the second half of 2020.
Over the months that we've been working together I've launched a new coaching business that is already running with several clients, went through different goals that have been adjusted as he helped me align them with my values and priorities (super critical!), and I also increased my income from coaching, performing, and real estate, while still finding the time for the aspects of my life that are most important to me.
I've grown a lot and connected to myself more as a person in the past year, and having Eli as part of my inner circle, and allowing for that space, has been a big part of that process.
From our first breakthrough session I knew I made the right choice. Eli has the perfect combination of being empathetic and attuned to my struggles, while also keeping me on task and asking the hard questions that truly lead to growth.
If this all sounds like what you're looking for in a coach, I could not recommend Eli highly enough!

Testimonial from Stephen C. - BREAKTHROUGH SESSION
I was recently in the midst of a downward spiral in my life because I am currently unemployed and living with friends through their amazing charity. Needless to say, life looked pretty bleak. My biggest problem was simply the fact that my outlook and attitude towards my life was negative and I didn't know where to turn. Eli and I had been discussing a Breakthrough Session off and on for almost a year, and I finally decided to do it because it seemed like I needed something to break up the logjam.
So we did a ten hour session over the course of two days, and the logjam is finally broken! I immediately noticed a difference in myself and my attitude. I am smiling and laughing more; through the session I reconnected with the passions of my life, and, most importantly, I reconnected with what I believe to be my purpose in life (which I hadn't felt in a long time). Additionally, Eli gave me some incredibly valuable tools to use in the future if I need them.
So, thank you Eli! Your help has been invaluable!
Testimonial from Joan E. - BREAKTHROUGH SESSION
Prior to my Breakthrough Session with Eli Schaugh, I was filled with curious anticipation about the process. I decided to enroll based on my high regard for Eli's expert skills as a Master Practitioner of NLP coupled with my respect for his knowledge and explicit instructional abilities as a Real Estate Coach at Keller Williams Realty and my faith and trust that that the outcome would be a positive experience! The results exceeded my expectations and was totally transforming and exhilarating.
I learned that viewing problems which present challenges can have positive results by becoming opportunities for change and personal growth through the release of negative emotions and addressing limiting beliefs! Focusing on what we want for ourselves in the universe rather than dwelling on problems and conflicts created an identity shift. Throughout the session I was carefully and thoughtfully guided on how to view and achieve future realistic, specific goals (Laws of Attraction) and feel empowered to be successful during these transformations and stay focused. Using these new tools and processing all the techniques and comprehending the roots of Cause and Effect was simultaneously enlightening yet overwhelming, but as Eli explained, it's the recognition of processing new information from my unconsciousness or subconscious awareness until it becomes routine.
In summary, with Eli's masterful guidance, negative emotions of the past were released and new learnings resulted.
Thank you Eli for your wealth of knowledge, patience and kindness. I highly recommend and endorse you for anyone who desires a remarkable, unforgettable experience for self-improvement, personal growth and change to become more successful in their professions and personal life!
With My Sincere Appreciation,
Joan
Testimonial from Jessica Gramuglia - Behavior Modification
I had been working to correct a destructive habit I developed over the past few years very unsuccessfully. When I met Eli and heard about the work he was doing I decided to give it a try since I wasn't able to shift this habit on my own. Not only did he generally help me using his NLP techniques, but he also gave me immediate results. I went in blind not really knowing what would happen. The biggest result I got was getting an entirely new way of living that was just there as soon as the session was over. The following week was a moment for me to witness the shifts of this habit being gone. I got so much of my life back because I used to unconsciously allow that habit to steal so much time and energy. The session also snowballed into changing a ton of other things in my life naturally as well as doing follow up sessions with Eli to work on other things so I could continue to grow. He was just so great to work with and speak to. He has a calming energy and makes you feel so comfortable almost instantly while working through processes that could potentially be very intimate.
He taught me EFT and Hakalau techniques to take with me that I use multiple times every day when I find myself in a situation or feeling anxious. I got so much out of just one session I couldn't stop telling my friends about it (and still do). I think so many people could benefit from these non-traditional techniques. I couldn't recommend Eli highly enough, there just isn't a quantifiable number for how grateful I am to have found him and his work.
Testimonial from Jody Kagan - Phobia of Needles
I hired Eli to help my daughter overcome a phobia of needles. Eli was wonderful! He was very knowledgable and able to help resolve the problem quickly. Since working with Eli, my daughter was able to go and get a vaccine with only mild nervousness - so much better than before! Definitely spend some time with Eli, he will help you resolve your problems in a quick and efficient manner. I would absolutely work with him again and 100% recommend him!
Testimonial from Jake Kindem - Job and Interview Preparation
Eli Schaugh is an amazing coach. What separates Eli from other coaches is his ability to really listen to what you tell him and tailor make a solution that sets you as the client up for success. I had Eli coach me in two separate aspects: real estate sales and job interview preparation. As a real estate sales client, I felt like when I was with him, I got his full, undivided attention. During the biggest deal of my career, Eli made sure to make time to answer all of my questions and successfully get our offer accepted over others. His knowledge and expertise in every stage of the transaction was paramount to the success of the closing. As a job interview client Eli helped me with all of my preparation, from developing what I value in a job to figuring out the best questions to ask. His coaching helped me shift how I view occupation- I was able to land the job I was going after and I am now pursuing opportunities I didn't think were possible. If you get the chance, coach with Eli. You won't be disappointed!
Testimonial from Lana Koyadinovich - Lead Generation and Removing Fear
When I first met with Eli, I had an issue with cold calling prospects and asking for business. I felt I was intrusive and I was "bothering" them. Just a few days after a session with Eli, I was in the office making the calls and getting through to leads who wanted to work with me! Just a few weeks later I landed my first listing, not from the leads I called, but nonetheless. I felt unstuck and a new energy was running through me that enabled me to be more open to the opportunity. I have since noticed that even in my private life asking for what I need is no longer a stumbling point. I am more vocal and unafraid. I would strongly recommend working with Eli. As a matter of fact, I am due for another session : ) There's always another breakthrough waiting to be had.
Testimonial from Nadia Maximova - Empowerment for Morning Success
Eli is a Life-saver for me! In only one session he was able to reprogram my waking-up pattern!
I always had a problem to wake up earlier in the morning. I was just not a "Morning person"... I would put 5 alarms and constantly hit on snooze so I would "get" another 30 min of sleep. This would always make me late for the office meetings. I just couldn't fix it myself and I didn't know what to do about it. I approached Eli with my problem and he was able to fit me in for the 1 on 1 meeting that same week. We did a 30 minute session that completely transformed my mornings!
After only 1 session I heard my alarm the next day and my mind was right awake. I just couldn't believe it! It was like magic, like a was replaced by someone else! Now if I want to sleep in I can but if I need to wake up I can too! It seems so simple but those stubborn habits are the toughest to break. I am super excited about this new change in my life. I get to the office before the meeting time and ready to go! thanks to Eli! I would absolutely recommend him to my friends and family!
Testimonial from Joan Fields-Evans - Communication, Motivation, Goals, and Schedule
Coach Eli has transformed (our office) with his energy, enthusiasm and passion for truly helping agents achieve success!
Personally speaking, during my first coaching session and subsequent meetings 1:1 and during our group sessions, I've been impressed with his wealth of knowledge, information and experience not only in real estate but also in enhancing our ability to communicate more effectively in our daily lives. He has shown a sincere desire to listen to our concerns, our pitfalls and problems and provides solutions and remedies in a tactful, kind and sincere manner. The results I've experienced since working with Eli have been very positive in that I'm more motivated to overcome obstacles both on a professional and personal level. I'm more conscientious and aware of my schedule, time-blocking, knowing the right things to say and feeling confident and empowered to be successful! . I highly recommend Coach Eli to anyone who desires to improve their abilities in real estate sales and for anyone wanting to learn dynamic techniques for digging deeper into the core of their goals, purpose, focus and relationships with others! Working with Eli will be a Win-Win for you, your peers, business associates, your clients, friends, family and loved ones!
Testimonial from Becca Liang - Limiting Beliefs and Negative Emotions
Eli helped me overcome limiting beliefs I had about my professional and personal life. He was very easy to talk to and offered many ways to reach my goals. Thankful for his help!
