Back in August, I published a blog series on The 100% Growth System – a step by step approach to growing your sales and profitability by 100% – a bold, outrageous and provocative target.
The 14 tactics from that series are summarised at the end of this post.
At the conclusion of that summer series I applied for a job – as your 100% Growth manager.
The details of that job application are also repeated below.
Here’s what happened:
- I set myself a target of 20 practices to work with for the first 6 months of 2016
- as of today – 17 practices have interviewed and hired me to coach them on 100% growth
So this post is for two reasons:
- I’m taking a moment to appreciate those who have hired me – my best work is happening with their management teams;
- I’m offering myself for “interviews” to fill the remaining 3 positions
I’d be happy to attend a telephone interview to begin with and a complimentary face to face meeting if I get past stage one.
Would you like your business to grow 100%?
I’m for hire.
