What did each of the consultants do this week to grow the business?

That's what I ask ambitious owners when we get started.

They usually don't know.

But, over time, they develop accurate, data-based reporting 😱.

Working together we make sure:

— They encourage, reward, and recognise the consultants taking those actions.

And importantly that they adjust focus and capacity to make all this happen.

Results follow.

And when they do find time, they are frazzled, squeezing it in between back-to-back meetings.

Their revenue strategy involves making desperate sales calls towards the end of projects, or random acts of marketing. Frankly, it's amateur time … unprofessional.

The pundits are suggesting 2024 is going to be tough for consulting firms.

May I ask you a question: What did each of the consultants do this week to grow the business?
