I
have a large client base and I don't really know how to make the most of
it. Is there anything I can do?
Yes there is a
lot that you can do to grow the profits within your business and improve
your relationships with your existing clients. Many businesses fail to
leverage the intellectual property and other valuable assets within the
business. Yet the reality is, that it is much easier to sell to someone
who has already placed their trust in a business, than someone
new.
We have programs
designed to activate additional business and income streams within a
practice - and develop your relationship with clients, and become more
valuable to clients at the same time. The bottom line? If you don't have
an effective and customer-focused system for marketing within your
client-base, you are simply leaving money on the table, in your
business.

What
about business planning? Is it really necessary?
Business
planning can take many forms. Many business plans are generated for the
purpose of obtaining finance, and as a tool to help you develop your
business, can be less than useless! On the other hand, a well
constructed business plan should articulate your clear vision of where
you want to drive the business, and accommodate all the steps you need
to get you there.
Whether you need
a full-blown extensive business plan or a more streamlined version to
get you want to go, will depend on the business, the structure and the
goals that you have in mind to reach. Either way, it is vital for the
health of a business, to have a very clear idea of where you want to end
up, and what to do to achieve it. The method to use that is going to
work best for you will depend on how you process information, and what
works for you. For that reason, we like to tailor solutions for the
individual business owner. A good business plan is not only a document,
it is a testament to the business you want to create, the values that
pertain to the business and is a vehicle to allow staff and customers to
understand and participate in that Vision.

I
live in the country. Is there a way that I can get help from your
services?
Yes! Many
businesses are located away from the metropolitan centres, and we
definitely want to make 'city solutions' available for business owners
living in the country. Remote services are available, contact us for
details, with a brief outline of your situation and we will respond as
soon as possible.

|
I
don't live in Australia...can you help me too?
Yes, we can. Just send
an email with your current situation and location and we will contact
you as soon as practicable. If you are in the US you may find this
preferable, because the differences in time zones mean that you can
attend to your coaching outside of your normal business hours, so that
your workday is not interrupted.

I
am working with small businesses, but I don't seem to be making the
progress in developing my business that I would like. Can you help me?
Helping business
advisors to grow and develop their businesses is one of our strengths.
Contact us with your situation and an outline of those areas you'd like
to address. |

I
have a retail business.
Can you help me too?
Retail shares
many of the same issues as other businesses, but some that are unique to
retailing. We can help with retail businesses too, no matter if it is
from articulating and implementing your vision, increasing profitability
in the business, streamlining and setting up business systems, building
customer retention and reactivation programs, or addressing issues on
the shop floor and staffing.

|
I
am an accountant. Can you help me help my clients?
Yes! We have special
programs for accountants who want to improve their business and
profitabity through streamlining operations, and procedures and adding
value for clients. Additionally, we provide services that accountants
can make available to clients in areas outside their expertise, but are
valuable to clients in development and increase focus and profits. Very
often this may lead to additional services that the clients may require
from the referring accountant.

I
have franchised my business, and as a franchisor, I have a team that I
want to help succeed in their franchise businesses in their local
territory. Can you help me help them?
Yes, we can work
with you to tailor programs to suit, which incorporate your processes
and expands the outlook of franchisees. A problem for many franchisors,
can be getting their new franchisees to fully understand that are not
business owners - not employees! Switching that attitude can be a vital
element to making a success of their new business. This is important for
both the franchisee and the franchisor, since success breeds more
success, and confirms the value of the product and means more franchises
to sell.
