Why use us?
In short we work with business owners who appreciate having some assistance
in growing and developing their business. It’s not that you "need help";
it’s more that you’re looking for someone to bounce ideas off, hold you accountable
and make sure you stay on track.
Could you do this yourself? Of course you could. But like all of us, it’s good to
have someone in your corner. At times, running your own business can be pretty
lonely. But there is an answer. Just like all top performing individuals, it’s good
to have someone watch how you "play the game" of business and then help
you work to your strengths and keep the mistakes to a minimum.
As a business owner, there are lots of decisions to consider:
- Do I put my prices up or do I discount?
- Do I hire more employees or not?
- Do I change my suppliers or keep the ones I’ve got?
- Do I add more products or services to my business or narrow them up?
- How am I positioned with my competition?
There are lots of things to consider, but what do you actually do about it?
That’s where we come in – we’ve worked with literally thousands of companies like yours in
the United Kingdom, Ireland, Western Europe, The United States, Canada, Mexico, South
Africa, India, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia.
In short we are there to assist you in completing your business education and help you get
the business fully systemised and running without your direct involvement once and for all!
Our network operates across the United Kingdom. Our advisors live and operate their businesses
in your community. Like you, they are independent business owners who understand the
local market conditions as well as having access to a national network of fellow Infinite Group
advisors.
The advisors in our network have many and varied business backgrounds, so there isn’t much we
haven’t seen before. We know we can add significant value to any business. Have a look at the
individual advisor web pages to see what we mean.
What Sort Of Businesses Do We Work With?
Essentially we work with successful business owners who are looking to take their businesses to
the next level. You’ll have been in business for a while and have learnt the first vital lesson
in business – and that is, how to stay in business.
No matter where we’ve been in the business world, we’ve never met a business owner who didn’t
know WHAT they wanted to achieve with their business. The one thing they want to know
is, "HOW do I get there?" We’ll work with you to put together a step-by-step
plan to make those objectives a reality.
So HOW do we do it?
The way we work with you is very straight forward. The first thing we’ll do is have a look to
see what is actually happening in the business as it stands. We need to get a complete
understanding of what’s going on first. Then we’ll work with you to develop specific, tailored
strategies to:
1) Systemise the Business
One thing we’ve learned - no business can perform unless all of the
necessary systems are in place and are working correctly. What sort of systems? Things
like procedures covering Operations, Finances, Administration, Sales, Marketing,
Management, Technology – the list goes on. We’ll help you identify the gaps and overlaps
and get them sorted.
2) Train your Team
It’s no good having great systems unless you have a team of motivated people to operate
those systems. Usually the monthly wages bill is one of your largest commitments. It’s
obvious you need to make the most of this by investing in maximising the team’s potential.
3) Keep you on Track
We’ll meet with you on a regular basis to review your progress and make sure you are
implementing the things that you said that you wanted to grow
your business. In the meantime, we’ll be working with you, putting in place the
systems and strategies that will give the business forward momentum. We’re NOT your boss
– we’re here to help you achieve the goals that you wanted for the business. One thing’s
for sure, your business NEVER stands still. It’s either growing or declining as the market
changes. We’ll be there with you to keep you focused on success.
4) Advise and Guide You
Our knowledge base is substantial. All of our advisors have unlimited access to literally
thousands of documents, procedures, spreadsheets, Power Point presentations, workshops,
DVD and voice files for you to take advantage of. There’s no need to "reinvent the
wheel" – we’ll already have it to hand. All you need to do is customise it for your
business with our help. This makes implementation much easier and faster. After all, it’s
the results that are the goal here.
5) Review and Correct
Once we implement a strategy, it’s important to make sure it’s working. We’ll help you set
up practical methods of measuring the results.
6) Be a Sounding Board
One of our greatest advantages for you is the simple fact that we don’t work in your
business. As we are not involved in the day-to-day running of the business, this provides
us with a unique perspective in helping identify the opportunities for the business.
In addition, we’re not involved in the day-to-day politics of the business. We’re seen by
everyone involved as an "honest broker" in the process. This allows your staff
and other stakeholders the freedom to approach us to discuss individual issues and get
them sorted.
The path to business success is thankfully a very well worn one. Literally millions of
people have travelled it before you. Like anything in life, there is a right way and a
wrong way of getting it done. Every successful business that you can think of started
out as someone’s idea. Our goal is to help make your idea and your business goals a
reality.
