Today, I enjoy increasing international attention/patronage as a trusted provider of custom Excel-VB software Products and Experiential Coaching/Learning Solutions. But that did not happen over night. For over 2 decades, I've used my self-taught skills to develop custom automated spreadsheet solutions for serious business users in various industries. I began doing this in 1995, in Guinness Nigeria Plc, in my spare time as a brewer/manager (I was NOT employed in IT). At a point over 4 of my applications were adopted for formal brewery level reporting in Benin Brewery. I earned rapid career advancement opportunities to senior management level within a 7 year period mainly due to this informal role I played - as well as my creative contributions to best practice continuous improvements in the workplace. If you're in paid employment, take it from me - developing spreadsheet automation competence can transform your career literally overnight - IF you know how to use your new skill to make the needed impact. In the phone based aspect of my one-on-one coaching, I will give you tips and insights you can use to make this happen. Click HERE To Contact Tayo Solagbade Now In 2002, I quit paid employment to launch my own business providing commercial Excel-VB software development solutions.The market for this solution was non-existent at the time - in my country, Nigeria. People simply did NOT see what I saw. I got laughed at for YEARS for thinking and daring to SAY I believed I could sell MS Excel workbooks! The idea sounded ludicrous to them, and quite a number felt they knew as much as I did about Excel, if not more. But my passion and conviction kept me going, and I carefully identified gaps in the data recording, analysis, report generation fields in various markets, till I narrowed down to those where my solution could make a useful impact people would gladly pay for.
Today, I have a growing base of followers, prospects and clients from within and outside Africa...Apart from verifiable evidence of client purchases I've shared in many true stories on this blog, the fact that professionals in various fields are joining my newly launched Excel-VB club, and referring colleagues and friends to signup as well (following the maiden edition of my FREE monthly Excel-VB workshop) lends credence to my claims. The above proves that acquiring Excel-VB competence is now being seen as a worthwhile investment in this part of the world, that can boost your competitiveness in paid or self-employment as a professional in your field. This has been the case in developed societies across the world for over 2 decades: we in Africa have been left behind for so long! If you're self-employed, your spreadsheet automation competence will give you a seriously unfair advantage over your competitors, and help you deliver MORE value to clients in a way that makes them gladly pay you MORE. In the phone based aspect of my one-on-one coaching, I will give you tips and insights you can use to make this happen. Click HERE To Contact Tayo Solagbade Now Not everyone will like to learn in a group setting - which is what annual membership of my Excel-VB Club offers.Some people are either too busy, value their privacy or learn too fast to be satisfied with learning at the speed of a group of people.That's why I offer this Confidential One-On-One Coaching/Mentoring What you end up being able to do, will depend on how far you are willing to go, and how much effort you are willing to put in. My private coaching is in 2 parts...
A. Generic LearningThe tutorials are prepared based on the assumption and expectation that the learner has an acceptable level of familiarity with MS Excel. I will provide you the needed step-by-step guidance in form of prepared downloadable generic tutorials (in video and PDF formats) based on what I teach in my LIVE On Demand 4-Day Practical Workshop Microsoft Excel-VB Programming Coaching for Business Users. The LIVE event lasts for 6 hours each day, over 4 days i.e. 24 hours of intensive coaching from the ground up, on Excel-VB coaching. For this one-on-one coaching, I deliver the same 24 hour content at convenient intervals agreed with my one-on-one coaching clients.
Click HERE To Contact Tayo Solagbade Now B. Experiential Learning: I Guide You to Build Your First Excel-VB App Based on Case Studies from your work!This experiential aspect involves working with the client, based on information s/he provides in an MS Excel workbook questionnaire I send him/her. The purpose here will be to identify case study scenarios based on his/her real world work situations for which time, effort and even money saving Excel-VB automation can be developed with my guidance. My focus will be on sharing insights on how I built some of my commercial apps, towards then COACHING the client to develop an Excel-VB solution to address his/her own real world needs, using what s/he learns from me. S/he would finish his//her coaching with a ready-to-use Excel-VB app to boost his/her productivity as an employee and/or in serving clients.We will work at YOUR pace, as the client. Whatever your time related challenges, we will work around them, using my downloadable learning resources in video, and PDF formats. I will lead the way in building a custom app we agree on, to address a real world need we agree you have. Then I would create home study step-by-step tutorials showing how I created every aspect of it, ending with Practical Exercises for you to do, to replicate what I show you in my tutorials. At the end of the relationship, you would have created your own version of the app – or something close, by following my guidance. In the process, you would have developed your own Excel-VB skills based on a real life problem solving exercise. As a result, you would leave with new competence ready-to-use in your personal or work life! Click HERE To Contact Tayo Solagbade Now VIDEO PREVIEW – EXAMPLE WORKBOOKBelow is a screen shot of a tutorial workbook I created several years ago (watch video demonstration here) for the National Distribution Manager of a large multinational telecoms company (The Logistics Department hired me). With Microsoft Excel,the possibilities that exist are virtually only limited by your imagination and creativity – once you gain proficiency in it’s use. The charts included here are automatically updated once ANY change(s) are made. Note that we have not even used VBA/programming code yet to automate certain repetitive tasks – except for the “Print…” command button added. So, much more can be achieved. How much you do achieve is up to you!
No one else uses this approach in Excel-VB coaching because it demands so much more from the learning provider!Do a search online and you’ll see what I mean. You get 2 benefits for the price of 1 i.e. you don’t just learn Excel-VB, but you are guided as you learn, to build a real world app that solves a real world problem that you can use or even sell, thereby killing 2 birds with one stone! No expert in his/her right mind will offer to do this for the price I offer. Note that I have developed custom apps for well over $1,000 USD within the Nigerian market alone. So, to have me work with you to build an app means you get that expertise at close to zero cost. Why I Insist On Using And Experiential Learning ApproachI adopted this approach based on my observations from working with business users/adult learners over the past 2 decades in a wide variety of fields and industries. My experiences and observations indicate that one NEEDS to be able to put his/her acquired skills to productive problem solving use in the real world to remain relevant. Otherwise your time spent learning would be a waste e.g. like the person who finishes a course in French language and can write, but is unable to speak the language! I KNOW the peculiar needs of business users in my primary target market of Nigeria/Africa. And that convinces me that this is the best way to deliver value they will gladly pay for one-on-one coaching of this demanding nature. I Offer My One-On-One Coaching/Mentoring Via BOTH Email and Phone at $500 per month (see Special Offer further down)E-mail only coaching is available at $250 USD per month (see Special Offer). There is no requirement for long-term contracts or commitments. It goes without saying that my one-on-one coaching is NOT for all comers.The above stated fees are very low for coaching when compared to other options available to you. Most training seminars cost multiples more. And you have to include the cost of hotels, flight tickets, food etc. Indeed there are even Excel-VB products that cost significantly more than the price of my one-on-one coaching support. Do the math and also consider the absence of this kind of personalized, experiential coaching that:a. addresses your own unique needs b. Leaves you with a real world custom Excel-VB app you can use in your work or even sell ...and you'll appreciate my 1-on-1 coaching offer much better. Click HERE To Contact Tayo Solagbade Now I can afford to offer this much value at such a pocket friendly rate because I earn over 80% of my income passively via sales of my flagship Excel VB Software (especially my Excel-VB Ration Formulator, the Poultry Farm Manager, and the Payslip Generator)Others include the Excel-VB Invoice Generator, Hotel Restaurants and Bars Manager, Church Records Manager, Membership Records Manager, Pure Water Factory Manager, Supermarket Business Manager etcYou can cancel your membership in this program at any time. I however recommend you plan for at least 3 months of coaching when you sign-up, because it takes time and commitment to develop the needed proficiency. Keep in mind that you're the one in control of the committment....not me: but rest assured that I WILL give you 110% of my promised support EVERY SINGLE DAY you remain in this program. SPECIAL OFFER 1: GET 6 MONTHS OF COACHING SUPPORT FOR THE VALUE OF 3 MONTHSTo encourage clients, and give them more value for money they pay, I offer SIX (6) months of access for clients who signup for 3 months at a go...So if you're interested, you can have: a. both email and phone coaching at $1,500 USD one time payment for SIX MONTHS instead of $3,000 USD (terms apply) b. or email only coaching at $750 USD one time payment for SIX MONTHS instead of $1,500 USD (terms apply) This is a limited offer, and can be withdrawn at any time.
