Success Stories - Short & Sweet
Cash Flow - For a small manufacturer with ongoing cash flow problems, identified the equipment that was the easiest and quickest to build, found a manufacturer's representative who sells a non-competing product to an ideal target market and made the introduction as part of a ten hour engagement. Their interim CMO estimated that the ROI would be an annual amount of about 100 times my fee.
Division of Labor - For a manufacturning company owner who was floundering in "fire-fighting" efforts, identified a division of labor that would free him up to focus on the big decisions and identified the employees who were able to take on part of the responsibility in one third of the time he expected the project to take.
Online Startup Opportunity - Helped an entrepreneur who wanted to use online marketing to make a difference in their depressed area identify local products and develop a business plan.
Funding - Working with other startup experts, helping entrepreneurs understand what they need to say to investors to get funded.
Operations Excellence - Helped a General Contractor develop a system for his new business, introducing a step that will differentiate his company from his competitors.
