Newsflash, the business fairy herself will be out and about on Thursday next the 15th of November. Yes, she is leaving the cosy, creative confines of HQ to take a stand (literally) at the Bank of Ireland “Show your Business Week”. We’d love to see you if you are in the Midlands, pop into the Portarlington branch of the Bank of Ireland. If you would love to talk to us but are thinking “can i I afford a mentor?” the question you should really consider is “can I afford not to hire a mentor”? Business mentors are a super support mechanism to start ups and micro businesses.
We help you focus on what’s important, prioritise your time, get maximum gain for minimum effort so that you are not worrying about the 110 things in your head, but rather the 3 most vital things you need to get done – before you move further down that list. Through building our own business, we have many contacts and resources for you to draw on to help you get to where you want to be. Small businesses fail because they fail to get organised, fail to prioritise, fail to clearly identify who does what, fail to delegate. We help you navigate this landscape and excel in your career.
A lot of small businesses owners/startups are not even aware of their USP (Unique Selling Point) or how that impacts on their sales processes. We have helped many businesses grow and strengthen their business offering by helping them with their sales pipeline, product costings, marketing and branding. We help you identify your target audience, find out where they hang out and how to get more of them. We can help with your social media, tying it in with the overall business strategy. We even offer a service (for those on limited budgets) that, with some initial help from us, will allow you to work with us at a distance where we act as part time advisers.
Yes we do ask some hard questions but all in the interest of helping your business grow. As one client said “it’s like you grab the business by the throat, shake it about it a bit, turn it upside down, 
smack it then tidy it all up, smooth it down and stand it back up the right way”. Another client felt we “were my light in the dark”. We understand how large corporations work, how networks work, how buyers and agents work, how sales processes work and we are delighted to share that knowledge with all of our clients to enable them to be the business they want to be and present themselves to the world in a unique and exciting way.
Sometimes you just need a mirror to see what you are doing wrong, or, what you need to do more of. We are your mirror, and we hope to see you on Thursday.
