Make Your Business More Profitable
I believe that businesses exist to "feed sheep." Sheep are like yourself, your family, your associates, your suppliers, your customers, your community, your country, and your world. The truth is that only a PROFITABLE business can "feed sheep."
The Small Business Tackle Box™ is designed to help small business owners make their businesses more successful and more profitable in order to fulfill the commandment to "feed my sheep."
- A small business is a privately held entity without any stock trading or institutional investors. In other words, a business where you, the owner, control your own destiny. It's business, that on average, generates less than 4 million dollars in annual revenues.
- There is nothing small about small businesses. In fact, there are a total of 28 million businesses in America today and over 27 million of those meet my definition of a small business.
The Small Business Tackle Box™ is specifically designed for small businesses in the service sector. Businesses like marketing and communications agencies, designers, sign makers, painters, plumbers, landscapers, dry cleaners, auto repair shops, gift shops, clothing stores, restaurants, caterers, and any other business that provides services directly to consumers and other businesses.
Those who use and apply the principles of the Small Business Tackle Box™ will:
- Change the way you feel, think, and work.
- Analyze the true strengths and weaknesses of you, the business owner, and your business.
- Create a specific vision for your business.
- Identify the real purpose of your business.
- Target your BEST customers and prospects for your business.
- Set challenging, yet realistic, goals for your business growth and profitability.
- Develop specific plans for achieving your goals.
- Use tools to help you execute your goals each and every day while measuring your progress along the way.
