How to Focus On Building Your Business By
Letting Me Worry About the Technology

Your small business doesn't seem so "small" anymore, does it?

Through hard work and energy you've built up your business. Through your sweat and time you've managed to grow from just a few workers to more and more people on the payroll.

And while all this growth is great, you're also spending more time solving problems than ever before. Strange issues keep creeping up. Maybe you keep getting nasty surprises, or your attention is constantly being diverted to solving some problem or another.

Does it feel like you spend most of your time fighting fires?

Is your business feeling growing pains?

Have you ever experienced:

Nasty Surprises
Frankly, as a business owner, I hate surprises. Usually because they are rarely good  surprises. Personally, I can't remember the last time my accountant called me with good news. Do you understand what I mean? Do you get too many nasty surprises?

Breakdowns in communication
Do your employees know "The Big Picture"? Are they on board and pulling in the same direction? Are all the teams playing nicely and sharing information with one another? Have company meetings ever turned into sessions of "Pass the Blame"? Do people complain about a lack of communication?

Endless firefighting
Are you constantly fighting fires? Are you being pulled back and forth by the crisis of the hour? Have you ever had to abandon a crisis to fight a disaster only to be summoned to battle a catastrophe? Is there always something that demands your immediate attention, right now or the world will end?

Constant errors
Have you stopped to think what a bad decision can cost your business? Have you ever wondered if the data you use to make decisions is accurate? Do you have evidence of a time when bad data lead to a bad decision? Can bad information cause you to make a catastrophic error?

Slow response times
Does it take forever to get answers to questions? Do you wait hours/days/weeks for reports? How long does it take for a decision to be implemented? How does your company react to adversity? Does your business react smoothly, avoiding obstacles by adapting or does it grind to a halt?

It's pretty clear, you have real, serious problems.
 

More Bad News

In many cases, some well-meaning computer tech will tell you that he has the solution to all your problems. Usually his solutions involve spending buckets of money on more computers.

However, did you know that:

• Very few computer techs know anything about business
• Studies suggest that 70% of new IT projects fail
• 50% of IT techs are out of sync with real business needs
• Most techs aren't even aware problems exist
• Senior managers feel the pain but can't explain the problem
• There may not be anyone in your company who can help you

Perhaps, you think that finding more customers and increasing sales will solve all your problems.

But your costs keep going up — squeezing your profits tighter and tighter.

In fact, you have to invest considerable time and energy just to stay where you are.  Basically, you're running in place.

So, how exactly will more computers solve your very real problems?

How can they increase your profits?

Especially in times like this.

One thing you must keep in mind . . .

Building a profitable business is as much about process management and technology alignment as it is about sales.

I’ve spent 15 years building businesses. I’ve started three businesses from scratch and built them into multi-million dollar successes.

I’ve worked with many, many companies and helped them retool to deliver better value to their customers – while enabling you to enjoy the lifestyle you deserve.
 

If You're Ready To Boost Efficiency, Eliminate Waste, Increase Business Knowledge And See Your Profits Explode, This Might Just Be The Most Important Article You'll Ever Read...

First, I have some questions for you:

• Are you frustrated with your computers?  How often have you been paralyzed because of a computer outage?
• Are you really getting the most out of your computer investments?
• Are your computer systems just glorified email machines?  Or typewriters?  What if you could turn them into powerful information terminals that enabled your employee productivity to soar?
• Do you ever feel that you could overtake your competition if you just had a sharper business edge?
• Do you secretly wonder if all these computers are really worth the aggravation?
• Are you tired of getting burned by new technologies that promise the world but just end up costing a bundle of money and time?   Or worse, they don't work!
• Do you really need to care about the difference between different technologies?  All that matters is whether or not it's going to put more money in your pocket.
• Do you have all the information you need at your fingertips?  Can you safely look up a customer transaction from any computer in the world?
• Can you track the relationship between your marketing efforts and their impact on sales?  Do you have the tools to reveal your most profitable advertisements?
• Have you ever been embarrassed by your computer systems?  Have you ever lost a sale because of a bad computer?  Ever lost a customer?  Are you tired of losing money?
• Are you tired of getting mixed messages from your computer techs?  Do your questions get answers that don't make sense?
• Are you tired of jargon and tech-speak?  Do you want someone that speaks plainly and explains benefits, not gibberish?
• Do you feel completely held hostage by your computer systems?  Are you completely at the mercy of the machines?
• Does it feel like every time you get a new computer program that the learning curve just isn't worth the aggravation, time and expense?
• Does it feel like you work for your computers?  Have you given up hope that technology could be made to work for you? 

If you answered “YES!” to any of these questions, then I have some important news for you... 

You're NOT alone. In fact, that list of questions was created from years of personal experience and from learning about this area of business for myself!

 

Here’s The Bottom Line...

NOT knowing how to make technology work for you is expensive.

Very expensive.

You dread new technology because it always means losing money.

It leaves you feeling like you have no power in your life.

It creates an underlying “distraction” that overpowers everything else...

It leaves your company in disarray with profits plummeting.

It leads to you feeling like a FAILURE.

On the other hand...

MAKING MONEY with your business technology feels GOOD.

 

It feels good to be able to rely on your business technology… and it feels good to enjoy the benefits of your computer investments…

It feels good to know you will overtake your competition… and that they will have to worry about you for a change.

It just feels good knowing your business makes money like a well-oiled machine.

Most Companies Never Learn, So They
Keep Making The Same Mistakes
Over And Over Again…

Most businesses take one of two approaches with business technology:

1.)  They buy into everything that comes along whether it works or not,

OR…

2.)  They don't buy anything more technologically advanced than scissors.

 

The problem with these two approaches?

            1.)  They don't work.

            2.)  They're expensive and time consuming.

            3.)  You’re employees hate both.

            4.)  THEY DON'T WORK.

So what's the answer?
 

I'm glad you asked…

The answer, my friend, is to stop banging your head against the wall using strategies that DON'T WORK... stop bending over backwards trying to accommodate technology... and instead harness these powerful, tested, GUARANTEED methods that will enhance your profits.

And here's how…

I'm going to offer you a simple, 3-step formula for ending your business technology problems forever.  If you do these three things, you WILL make more money, period.

 

1)  Get Your Computers Working As Hard As You

You cannot build a strong house without a solid foundation.  Everything builds on your Technology Infrastructure.  By getting the computers in your offices running at optimal levels, you can finally start getting the most out of your existing equipment.

When you develop this unshakable foundation you will notice some amazing things starting to happen…

• Your employee productivity will increase because they no longer have to wait for the computers…
   

• You'll start having the information you need more readily available, so you can start making business decisions based on all the facts…
   

• You'll stop losing time, sales, customers and money because "the computers are down."

But this isn’t something you can just wish for. 

It can take months, and lots of hard work.  And it's all too easy to fall off track and decide it is just too hard or too time consuming to continue.  Believe me, I know.

If you REALLY want long-term, consistent business success, this step is not optional.  You just have to do it.

Fortunately through my own business struggles I've developed some almost “magical” techniques for fixing what's broken FAST.  I've figured out ways that ANY COMPANY can use to make powerful, lasting changes that customers notice right away… no matter what your market share is now… and it won't take years to do it.

When you get your Technology Infrastructure optimized, you'll be AMAZED at how everything else just seems to fall into place.  But best of all, you'll never have to worry about computers again.

 

2)  Retool Your Day-To-Day

Do you know every single step your business takes from when you make a sale to when you collect your money?

Do you know what happens when a customer calls to complain or to ask for a refund?

A "Business Process" is the actual work your employees do; what buttons they push, what papers they shuffle.  Most executives have no clue what happens in the trenches.  That's understandable, you're busy with more important tasks. 

But what's more important than how you make money?

Most companies have day-to-day operations that have grown "organically" over time.  New steps are added into the process to deal with special cases, and eventually the entire thing has more steps than absolutely necessary.  That is inefficient, and therefore, expensive.

But knowing how and where to start improving and redesigning your business processes can be daunting.  The key to success is viewing it all from the customers' perspective instead of from an internal point of view. 

And most important, any new system must always make it easier for a customer to give you their money!  Have you ever wanted to buy something but the clerk couldn't make the cash register work?  That level of frustration is exactly what you must avoid.

The good news is that I have figured out the right methods to maximize efficiency and get your company on track.  I've developed a MASSIVE ARSENAL of techniques, methods, and shortcuts for every business situation.

The really great thing is that you can learn them FAST… and start using them as soon as you do.  I'll show you the “basics”… and then let you in on the more advanced techniques.

When you have an arsenal of powerful, tested techniques that work, you can take advantage of every opportunity… and you'll never have to worry about things not ending up “your way.”

 

3.)  Prepare for Tomorrow

Are you ready to grow?  To expand your business across the globe? 

Are you prepared for anything?  Ready to face every challenge, no matter how catastrophic?

Management Services are all about preparing for tomorrow: good or bad.  Most companies never prepare for the future.  I have even seen companies that suffered from their success!  While there is nothing wrong with hoping for the best, you need to be ready for anything. 

But developing a business continuity plan is time consuming and can be very expensive.  The last thing you need during a disaster is to be paying through the nose to stay in business.  You need agile solutions that can put you back in business as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, I know how to make this happen.  I know the best way to get you back up in no time.  And better yet, everyone will know what to do when the time comes to keep you in the fight.  And while your local competition is struggling, you are reaping the benefits.

After Hurricanes Andrew, Katrina and Wilma, I have learned all the tricks that can work for you.  And let's hope you never need to use them.

You Must Know Where You’re Going

If you don't have the kind of success you want, then you're not following these three steps.  I know that.  You know you need to follow these steps.

The question is, WHEN and HOW are you going to do them?

Are you going to do them NOW?  And are you going to try to do them yourself?  Or are you going to take advantage of the incredible wealth of knowledge that's available to you... knowledge that can save you literally YEARS of time and MANY THOUSANDS of dollars in cash?

Warning! Beware of the Part-Time “Guru”

There are many people out there who have suddenly become “technology  gurus” because they went to a weekend seminar and listened to a few CDs.

Some of these folks are computer techs who claim their competitive advantage is that they have “run an IT department.”

These folks are so good at running an IT department that they have taken on this part time job of selling information products…kind of like Tupperware or Amway…
