Should I hire a coach?

[Courtney James]

Hi, BP'ers! 

I am an investor from Canton, OH who would like to scale my business to generate more cash flow and accumulate more properties in addition to the wholesaling I have been doing. 

I recently have been in communication with someone who has offered their services to coach me. Although, I definitely see the value in receiving a coach, how can I ensure this is a legitimate opportunity?  I met them online and we are not in the same market so I am unsure of how to about vetting this person and confirming they are as knowledgeable as they say they are. 

Any suggestions would be helpful? 

Thanks in advanced.
