Even The Most Successful
I call this section "Fix", and for good reason. These are the business basics that build a solid foundation for profitable growth. My business was hugely profitable, yet there were so many things that could have been fixed. If it ain't broken, we can still fix it.
It's A Common Story
As small business owners, we're damn good at what we do. There's tons of passion and a relentless drive that a steam train couldn't stop, it's what makes us dive into the world of self-employment. That, and the dreams and goals of a better life for ourselves and our families. Does that sound familiar? Why did you make the jump to start your own business?
As our businesses grow, we often find that our business skills fail to keep pace. This is what happened to me. The business outgrew me. Not the passion, not the commitment, and certainly not the ambition to scale, it was the "advanced business skills" that caught me out.
I built an exceptional business, yet despite that success the business failed on its 20th Birthday. I would often focus on the big things and neglect the small things, and sometimes the exact opposite, I would focus on the small things and neglect the important things.
As successful business owners - we need to focus on ALL things. We will not do all these tasks ourselves, but we sure as hell need to take full ownership of them.
Even the most successful business will have TONS they can fix, most they won't even know about. It's what you don't know that causes the problems.
Here's Some Of What's Covered In The "FIX" Section
What You Can Expect?
The Six Modules above outline the core elements of the "Fix Module". These are the business basics if you like, and the ones most likely to get overlooked by a growing business owner.
We'll cover a ton of stuff during this module that will include; Vision Planning, Quarterly Planning and setting out the pace for your businesses short, medium and long term growth. If you don't know the destination, how can you plan the journey?
Not unsurprisingly we'll focus a lot on your Key Numbers and Finances, but not the ones you may expect. Too often Turnover and Profit are the key areas of focus, yet these are the OUTCOMES of other activities. We'll look at your overall marketing reach, leads created, leads qualified, quotes provided, sales won, average sales values, average sale numbers, and of course, margin - it's that combination that delivers Turnover and Profit.
We'll also look at every element of your Financial Planning and leave nothing to chance.
Systems and Processes are key for every small business as they introduce consistency and efficiency, the key ingredients for profitable growth.
We'll also dive into Marketing like you've never done before. This isn't marketing, this is what you need to do before you even START your marketing, and it's game-changing.
Then we'll dive into all things People, your biggest asset. I'll show you an amazing recruitment process to get the right people, then we'll explore how to RETAIN that top talent. Getting good people is tough, so let's not make it tougher. We'll also spend a lot of time looking at your involvement in the business. Are you spending too much time working IN the business and not enough ON it? This is the where I started to go wrong. I'll share what I got amazingly RIGHT and what I really got seriously fucking wrong!!!
Then, we'll progress nicely towards Mindset. Don't worry, I'm not going all "woo woo" here, this is practical stuff that you're going to love and is based, once again, around our old friend Henry Ford who reminded us - "Whether you think you can, or whether you think you can't - you're right". We'll also dive into the amazing works of Michael Losier's "Law of Attraction" - what shit are you allowing into your life?
And all this is just one part of one module. This is How To Wreck Your Business LIVE - to make damn sure you don't.

My Guarantee To You
Sadly most business guarantees aren't worth the paper they are NOT written on. With this programme there is no guarantee of success, because that success is DOWN TO YOU. If you expect the magic "just to happen", then this course will not work, nor will any other course come to think of it. So, there's no guarantee for that - if you want a guarantee, buy a toaster.
What I will guarantee is value, value for you and value for your business. So, after every 1-1 session, you'll be asked a question; "Did you get value from today's session?" - if the answer is NO - then there's nothing to pay, and it's that simple. There's no contract, and the only real commitment is the one you make to yourself.
Henry Ford said, "If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got"
GET IN TOUCH
