The Shocking Build Business Profits Fundamental That Most Entrepreneurs and Business Executives Miss

 

There are a handful of key fundamentals that every business needs to consistent have in place in order to optimize business performance as measured by building business revenue, profits and liquidity. I regularly address one or more of these at my blog Build Business Profits which is the new domain that I moved from Steve Reports. Strategically I am positioning Build Business Profits to be the “go to” blog for business advice. I have always written material based on what I find working with my clients. Readers should benefit greatly from this material as it reflects the actual experiences of companies I am working with.  I am sharing that with my readers so you can have an insight as to how I am addressing the current branding for the business coaching and consulting business.

The one fundamental that most business owners and business executives have difficulty with is The Executive Summary that defines their business. I work with every client on this document and advise them the goal is not primarily to have a document that will be sent out to the public, although there are no restrictions on doing that. Rather the goal is to prepare the business leader for effectively defining their business in a networking situation.  A related business benefit is that the Executive Summary generally forms the foundation of the home page of the company’s website.  The key elements I coach businesses on are the development of the written document and then how to effectively network for relationships that will help their business.

The coaching on networking has evolved to include more guidance on building the relationships. This is important because as people begin to develop a clear definition of their business they need to know how to effectively communicate with people so to engage them and not turn them off.  Imagine you are at  a networking event or following up with someone you met at an event.  How would you feel if that person begins telling you all about their business or business opportunity without expressing any interest in you and what you do. How likely are you to become engaged yet alone stay interested?  The likelihood is 0!

So I focus my business coaching and consulting experience beyond the guidance of developing  a clear executive summary and help people develop relationship building skills.  Everyone finds that valuable!

Where Did I Learn What I Coach?

Clearly I learned and perfected a lot of these principles during the portion of my professional career with Arthur Andersen & Co. where networking was the primary way we marketed our services. However, as an entrepreneur, I seemed to lose some focus on  networking skills.  Now I am working with leaders who have as many as five coaches. I have two coaches and the primary focus includes the development of skills for building revenue and profits.  Right at the top of that skill set is relationship building.
