About Zizzo Inc.
My name is Stefanie Zizzo, President of Zizzo, Inc. I am a Professi
onal Certified Coach (PCC) who is passionate about helping Coaches achieve success!
In my 12 years experience as a coach, I have seen too many great coaches struggle with building their businesses and with their confidence as coaches. Therefore, I created this second business to support coaches in being successful!
My passion as a coach is helping many people to live their best lives. As I am only one person, it became clear to me that to expand my reach and help more people, it was time for me to devote more time to supporting coaches to succeed in their work with clients, and in attracting new clients.
The more coaches that are successful, the more people can be served!
My Career and Life Coaching business, for the past 12 years, has focused on helping my clients to gain clarity, confidence and direction. I've coached hundreds of people, mostly 1-1, and have successfully built my business from the ground up - with no business background!
In fact, when I completed my coaching program back in 2005, I knew nothing about starting or running a business (I had never even taken a business class!). Furthermore, I was moving here to NC, a place where I had no connections.
How did I do it?
In my blog posts, I will be sharing bits and pieces of my story and the keys to success that I have experienced in the last 10 years. These are just some examples of how someone can achieve success, though by no means are they the only ways to become successful.
In my work with Coaches, I help you uncover what your personal keys to success can be to allow you to create your coaching business your way!
My Background
I've been a member of the International Coach Federation since 2005, joining the year I completed my coaching program through the Institute for Life Coach Training. My education also includes a Masters degree in Counseling and Bachelors in Psychology. My background includes 11+ years as a Career Counselor in a University setting before launching my Career and Life Coaching business in 2005.
I work with coaches in North Carolina (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary, Apex) and throughout the country.

no to any of these, you are in the right place!

completed (or are in the middle of) your coaching program and are excited and perhaps a bit nervous to launch your business - OR - maybe you have gotten started,
trying out some marketing strategies and things are just not coming together like you had planned - OR - maybe you would like to
expand your coaching business or take it in a
new direction!
The business of coaching uses different strengths and skills than the service of coaching. I work with coaches 1-1, and through a Business Building Program, to support you in launching and growing a successful coaching business.
Together, we uncover your personalized "keys to success" that work with your personality, strengths and values to create a business that fits who you are.
This will be part coaching, part guiding, part brainstorming and sharing of ideas together. I'll be helping you to
take the confusion and overwhelm out of the process so you can be your best self and thrive as a self employed coach!
I will coach you to gain/create:
- Greater clarity of your Vision for your coaching business
- Business structures/systems that allow you to thrive
- Understanding of the marketing strategies that could work best for you
- Who your ideal clients are and how to attract them
- Your coaching niche/focus area
- How to brand your coaching business
- Activities that take you out of your comfort zone so you grow into your business

Client Success Stories
I have worked with coaches in the Triangle area of North Carolina and throughout the country, helping them to build their coaching skills and/or their coaching business. Here are some of their experiences...
"Stefanie Zizzo has built a thriving coaching business based on her strong skills and the highest of professional and ethical standards. As my coach, she supported me through the transition out of nonprofit leadership and into coaching. Our work together has--without a doubt--made me a better coach who is better-equipped for financial success doing the work I love. Now that I have an ICF credential and am serving clients, I continue to work with Stefanie to grow my business and reach my next set of personal and professional goals." Beth Livingstone, Durham, NC, www.BethLivingstone.com
"I have worked with Stefanie for several months. I was looking for help getting focused and confident about the way forward with my coaching and yoga business. Stefanie worked with me every step of the way on what I needed to move forward. With what seems like a sixth sense, Stefanie really hears what I am saying and supports me in addressing any underlining obstacles that might appear to be keeping me from moving forward. She gives me permission to be, and to stand witness to who I am; and to really enjoy the unfolding of planting seeds, cultivating the process and growing success." Suzanne Ballantyne, Cary, NC, Life & Wellness Coach and Yoga Teacher
"Having been a life coach since 1998, the time had come to reinvent myself and take my coaching to the next level. I quickly discovered that I am far more effective at coaching others than I am at coaching myself, so I decided to hire a mentor coach. I was looking for someone I could relate to, someone who was “state of the art” skilled yet compassionate and easy to talk to. I wanted a coach who would recognize my strengths, areas that needed polishing up and hold me accountable in a no-nonsense manner. Stefanie has proven to be all that and more. Almost immediately, she zeroed in on the faulty beliefs and perceptions that were getting in the way of my growth as a coach. She was instrumental in expanding my awareness, helping me recalibrate and develop a game plan that reflected my newly created vision for myself as a coach and business owner. She has remained one step ahead of me in knowing how best to support, motivate and guide me in a direction that has encouraged me to experiment and take risks while remaining true to myself. Thanks to Stefanie, I am a more confident, creative and successful coach. I am more aware of and open to opportunities and possibilities that once seemed out of reach. I now have a new tool kit filled with powerful and effective strategies that have enabled me to grow as a person and life coach in addition to growing my business". Shelley Weiss Cohen, Illinois, Midlife Mastery Coach
THANK YOU………YOU MADE A DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE!!!! THANK YOU again for being there for me as a my Coach. Your presence was fundamental for me to breakthrough some of the pain and limiting beliefs I had for so many years. Thank you for believing in me and holding my higher vision when I was stumbling. I continue to take daily actions toward creating my own coaching practice and I already see my desires manifesting in my life. Josie, North Carolina

Coaches Lab Webinar
Build Your Confidence to Build Your Business with the Coaches lab
- If you’ve been working to grow your coaching business for a while now and things aren’t happening as fast as you want to attract clients…
- If you are just launching your business and not sure where to start…
- If you do not know what steps to take to design a system that works for your business and for you…
Then we would like to help you build your confidence to build your business
You see, we’ve heard from a lot of coaches we mentor and coach that they are having a difficult time getting their business to grow fast these days, especially because there is no sense of direction or knowledge of what’s right and what’s wrong. After hearing about so many coaches who struggle, and join very expensive programs who sell magic solutions with no real results, we decided to do something about it…and that’s why we created the Coaches Lab.
The Coaches Lab is a 5-day face-to-face group program where we meet once a month to help coaches build their confidence to build their business. We call it the Coaches Lab because it is a safe space allowing coaches to experiment so each will find their unique direction and system for success.
We understand that to figure out what works and doesn’t work for you, you need to go out to the real word and experiment with what you have learned in the Coaches Lab until you have your unique formula, your unique keys to success, your unique blue print that works for you!
This is why we would like to invite you to take advantage of a
Special Introductory Coaches Lab Webinar on
August 19 at noon EST where we’ll work together to uncover hidden challenges that may be sabotaging the growth of your business and keeping you working too many hours with no real results and no sense of structure.
Our promise is that you will leave this session re-energized, and inspired.
We will also share with you more about our full program so you can learn how it can help you build your confidence to build your business!
If you’d like to take advantage of this FREE “Coaches Lab” webinar, email thecoacheslab@gmail.com and answer these questions…
- How long have you had your coaching business?
- What are your goals for the next 12 months?
- Full Name
- Email Address
Since we’re making this offer for the first time right now and we don’t know how intense the response will be,
we only have room for 24 people on this webinar.
If you don’t hear from us, it means we’ve received more requests than we can handle right now and if something opens up we’ll get in touch with you at a later time.
Again, to take advantage of this offer, simply email us at thecoacheslab@gmail.com with WEBINAR in the subject line and answer the questions listed above. Once registered, we’ll email you the call in details.
Warmest Regards,
Stefanie Zizzo, PCC & Noa Ronen, MBA, ACC
