Build A Business: Start your own business, be your own boss.

We can show you how to set up and build the business you have always wanted.


In addition to the pages below we offer a corporate/group/community online workshop 'Build a Business'. ​
Picture
Many of us dream about setting up our own business but very few take action. This is a shame because most people would rather be their own boss. Research suggest the main reasons people don't make their dreams a reality are; fear of the unknown, worries about security, worries about being the wrong age and finally they think there is a lack of options.
Our course will show you -
  • There is nothing to fear and there are no unknown's.
  • How job security is a myth that just holds you back.
  • How the young have the advantage of energy and older people see their overall ability peak in their 60's.​

  • Find out why keeping existing customers is cheaper than finding new customers.
  • Explore how your organisation can best present a consistent 'face' to customers and prospects alike.  
  • Create specific, relevant and inspiring customer service training.
  • Prepare for the inevitability of change.  Everything changes and determine what your company needs to be able to meet the demands that change brings.
  • Find out what type of negotiator you are.  Everything is a negotiation and good negotiating skills are important to everyone trying to build a business.
  • Find out what type of sales person you are. Everything is a sale and good/ethical sales skills are important not only to everyone trying to build a business but for everyone involved in the business.
  • Have a strategy.  Most businesses are teams.  Teams need to built, trained and pointed in the right direction.  
  • Identify your goals.  Good teams are coached to work towards and believe in a common aim.
  • Develop a purpose.  Everyone in an organisation needs to understand their place in the 'big picture'.

  • Create a mind-set that avoids confusing management with leadership.

Our Services   

According to the UK Institute of directors, depth of leadership is “frequently” a problem for small to medium-sized businesses.  

Often company founders are too hands-on; this results in the leader getting bogged-down in day-to-day distractions.  When this happens the leader of a company starts to waste the energy that built the company.  This in turn results in missing the bigger picture/challenges/opportunities, slow growth, a disengaged workforce and the failure of the company (failure that destroys years of hard work building a company from nothing). 

These pages exist to help in three ways:
  1. Passing on experience - 40+ years in business, teaching and coaching.
