The Engine Driving your Business – Marketing, Sales & Gross Profit

posted on Monday, January 18th, 2010

Sales and Gross profit are the engine of every business. Marketing sometimes has a “Black Arts” connotation and professionals in this area surround it in fog and mystery when actually it should be simple and straight forward. There are basic rules for developing marketing plans and marketing strategies which remain constant although the answers will vary enormously from business to business.

Put simply, Marketing is the generation of leads or enquiries and Sales is the conversion of those leads into closed business.

I can lead you through those processes to help you develop an effective marketing plan with cost effective marketing strategies for your business and a sales process which will optimise your sales and profit.

There are many proven strategies for marketing and for sales which can make a huge difference to the results you achieve. You owe it to you and your business to have the very best engine driving you forwards so contact us today to arrange for a meeting to discuss how we can help you to improve your results.

A coach asks questions to help lead the client to their answer but may not know the answer themselves. A mentor asks questions, challenges, explores, examines and does know the answers based on personal experience.

Having run and owned various businesses since 1972 including start ups, buying and selling businesses and advising businesses I bring an experienced pair of outside eyes to your business. I continue to learn from every business I work with and can often offer new ways of doing things more effectively or more efficiently, new markets for products or services and new products or services for an existing client or customer base.

Business Planning is an important part of my work with most businesses. This involves reviewing strategic plans and often I am able to suggest changes which increase profits and help the business grow faster.

We can work on a regular retained basis or on a specific project basis.
