If your business had $50,000 in profit improvements hiding in plain sight, wouldn’t you want to know?
I can help you find those hidden profits in two days.
Guaranteed.
The market has changed. Everyone wants more.
How can you reinvest in growing the business when higher costs keep squeezing margins? Some businesses choose to respond by tightening up, putting growth on hold, and waiting for the market to rebound before they make improvements. Others are repositioning themselves now so they’re ready to gain a competitive advantage before the market bounces back.
Which kind of business do you want yours to be?
It seems counterintuitive, but lower revenues don’t really keep companies from profitable growth. The real culprits are waste and inefficiency. They comprise 20 to 30 percent of sales at most companies, or more than $5,760 a week for every $1 million in payroll. This kind of waste isn’t sustainable. And you don’t have to sustain it.
Identify more than $50,000 in profit improvements. Guaranteed.
Introducing the Power Idea Session.
The Power Idea Session is the best way to improve profits now so your company is positioned to lead when the market rebounds. It’s a two-day working session that helps the right companies grow with the resources they already have. You can afford to do this now–you don’t have to wait to thrive. Collaborating on site with key members of your team, we identify valuable ideas and high priority improvement projects for profit improvement and cost reduction.
The process is guaranteed. If we don’t identify at least $50,000 in profit improvements in two days, you don’t pay.
Is this for you?
The Power Idea Session is for companies that have a knack for increasing revenue—but find their cash flow isn’t keeping up with growth.
Executives, managers, and owners at these companies often wish they could add facilities or hire more people–so profitable growth could follow. If this sounds familiar, there’s a good chance I can help. Of course, I won’t know for sure until we’ve had a brief conversation. But if your company is the right fit and we move forward with your Power Idea Session, I guarantee the results.
Here are a few more characteristics of the smart executives I work with:
- You believe in using improvement as a key business strategy for growing your business profitably and for gaining a solid competitive advantage.
- You’re open to challenging how “things have always been done.” You recognize the old ways won’t work in a new economy.
- You think there’s a way to do this better. And you’re willing to support your employees in securing a better future.
Expect real outcomes. In just two days.
You don’t need to feel creative to benefit. You just need to bring your team. Here are the real outcomes every client who works with me experiences.
Rapid transformation.
By the end of the Power Idea Session, you will know exactly what to do to improve the business. And you’ll know these $50,000 improvements are possible because your people helped identify and evaluate them.
More profits from the resources you’ve already got.
These aren’t massive changes we’re introducing. They require no investments in capital equipment or new people. These are relatively small but measurable changes your company can begin implementing right away.
Engaged employees who take ownership of their work.
When your people have a structure and a forum in which to share ideas, they become highly creative problem-solvers. And they start thinking like owners of the company—rather than just its employees. Everyone comes away excited about what’s next.

What qualifies me to find your company’s profit improvements?
It’s a reasonable question. How might someone like me presume to know your business better than you do? And if $50,000 in profit improvements were within reach, wouldn’t you have found them already? The truth is, it’s your people who have the brilliant ideas. They just need a skilled facilitator to help them generate, evaluate, and prioritize those ideas—and to then transform ideas into a sensible plan.
How it works
Think of me as a collaborative detective. (Except detectives don’t typically guarantee they’ll solve your mystery.) I employ logic, imagination, and experience to help you solve the mystery of where your profits are hiding.
Here’s what to expect during a Power Idea Session:
Day 1: The fun stuff. We generate improvement ideas.
Your people are creative. Even (and especially) the ones who don’t think they are. If you’ve never watched 15 people in a room have an epiphany at the same time, you’ll be surprised how many ideas are already there.
Day 2: Part 1: We evaluate and prioritize those ideas.
It’s a process of playful elimination. Your team measures the value of each idea, and then we prioritize them so we know which ideas can make the biggest difference in your bottom line.
Day 2: Part 2: We prepare an Action Plan.
No thick reports. No six-month discovery phases. No fanciful theories. You’ll come away not just with great ideas, but also with a realistic plan to put them into action. Immediately. With a good plan in place, you’re ready to begin your first project. And I’m ready and willing to assist.
Here’s how the Power Idea Session is different.
Many improvement programs involve a consultant meeting with your top executives, disappearing, and returning with a report of recommendations and insights you already know. Only 30% of these programs actually work. They can also take years to carry out and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
My approach takes two days, has a 100% success rate, and comes with a guarantee. The risk is on me. The potential rewards are all on you.
