Dear Big Life and Business for Coaches Members,

Announcing the merger of web companies Big Life and Business for Coaches

Self development and coaching web based companies www.biglife.ws and www.businessforcoaches.com merge creating the largest international community dedicated to supporting coaches and clients alike.

One of the many initiatives aimed at encouraging and developing coaches to come from entrepreneur Gerard O’Donovan, CEO of Noble Manhattan, Europe’s leading coach training provider, is Business for Coaches.

The Noble Manhattan group of companies and Big Life share a philosophy of life time care for their members. It was this philosophy that was the catalyst for establishing Business for Coaches as a medium for supplying the ongoing support, education and training of coaches globally.

Business for Coaches is the most comprehensive global one-stop-shop resource centre. Therefore, when the self development web based company Big Life in the US came on the market, Gerard knew this was a perfect match.

‘Big Life offers Business for Coaches members the social platform and the ‘find a coach’ service we’ve been looking for.  Conversely, Business for Coaches offers Big Life members a greatly improved range of back office support functionality. This merger strengthens the aims and objectives in supporting coaches in achieving their aspirations’.
More specific information will follow via a series of weekly e-mails and a conference call Thursday 24/9/2009 @ 8.30pm BST (check out www.worldtimeserver.com to convert time to your area) on Tel +441305 769 411 for international callers and T: 0800 191 011 for UK callers.

Everyone is warmly invited to join Gerard and Dawn Campbell (who will be managing both sites) in the conference call to hear their plans to ensure the continued success of both these communities.

In the meantime, I would like to share with you some key contacts and points of reference in the event anyone has an immediate query.

Gerard O’Donovan
