optimizing
opportunities
Every business has potential
the trick is identifying your best idea and focusing on it.
I have never met an entrepreneur short on ideas. Usually, they have more ideas than they can take on, and have trouble choosing.
Why? Because they can build and do almost anything.
So why is this your worst problem to have?
Because it means you will split your time and energy between five promising ideas instead of investing your full self into nurturing one of those ideas into profit in your small business. The result? You have five ideas that have germinated and have also become the source of your tasking instead of your BUILDING.
It’s easy to think of it like this - you’re either the guy on Mary Poppins playing the one-man band or you’re Hendrix, the untouchable guitarist everyone wants to listen to.
I help small town owners who earn to focus on learning that instrument that will make your company the legendary act on the stage we call the marketplace.
I have helped countless owners to see what they cannot - the potential of their business and the value they bring to it - and transform those realities into solid business strategies that can be achieved by optimizing one key opportunity.
My skill in seeing beyond the usual ways of doing business is hard to describe, to be honest. I have been educated to look at the business environment, competitors, suppliers, risk, feasibility, market viability and ROI. My intuition and knowledge of our small town business scenario leads me to find creative and innovative ways to bring about the outcomes the owner is seeking.
