For over 30 years, Alan Heitner held leadership positions in the footwear industry in sales, marketing and product development, bringing new innovative designs to the market. Now, he’s parlaying this business management experience, and desire to help people, to his newest profession as a Business Coach with The Entrepreneur’s Source (www.ESourceCoach.com/aheitner). Alan has been extensively trained to help coach individuals to find the right business and to coach existing businesses to succeed.
“I really enjoy helping people develop professionally and realize their potential,” said Heitner. “The Entrepreneur’s Source is a perfect match for me, because I have the opportunity to control my lifestyle and more importantly, help others control their lifestyles while doing what they want to do,” he added.
According to Alan Heitner, the average person changes careers four times during his or her lifetime. When people do consider business ownership, they often find it a little daunting and abandon their dream. "By using a business coach they are no longer alone. We serve as the safety net that allows them to explore their options and act on their dreams. Our process allows them to safely let go of the past so they can explore the future,” Heitner said.
As a former vice president for a footwear company, Alan worked all sides of the industry including wholesale, retail, and manufacturing, in both domestic and international markets. A key role for Alan was to provide mentoring and coaching to independent stores, and task he very much enjoyed. It was this experience that convinced him that business coaching was his next career move.
“Entrepreneurship is booming today and I’m very excited about helping people understand the many options available to them as aspiring business owners,” said Heitner. “I’m a true believer in the New Career Economy® and allowing people create their own destiny,” he added.
The Entrepreneur's Source is a leading business coaching firm specializing in helping people discover the right business for their goals, needs and expectations and assist business owners to reach a new level of performance, Heitner said. As a business coach, Heitner provides executive coaching in areas including: opening a new business, communications and leadership, market and business planning, exiting a business, increasing profitability, expanding operations and exploring a new business.
“And with our strategic partner, E-Myth Worldwide, using the business success systems we can help small business owners develop the strategic knowledge to start a business or take an existing business to the next level of success,” said Heitner.

With economic indicators projecting a continuing down turn in the labor force and a trend toward leaner companies, the New Career Economy is now a reality - where gone are the days when individuals work for one or two employers, receive lifetime benefits and retire boasting double-digit service time from one employer. Future, long-term security will be gained through individuals managing their own careers through self-employment and other alternative career options.
