Bill Collier Franchisee and Coach at Great Game of Business

Bill's entire approach to helping my company implement the Great Game of Business was consistent from the time we first met through the present day: affable and non-pressuring, accommodating without coddling, and at all times encouraging us to reach farther without taking inordinate risks. I strongly believe this mix of attitude and aptitude was an essential contributing factor to my team's willingness to accept his recommendations, and our company's leadership, as we learned to embrace old tools (PNL, Balance Sheet, Metrics) and methods (Scoreboards, Incentives, High-Involvement Planning) aimed toward improving our bottom line. The results speak for themselves - an incredible increase in our net profit, despite the terrible economy.

I've had the pleasure of interviewing Bill Collier several times, and I am always impressed with the depth of his business knowledge. Recently, he appeared as an in-studio guest on my television show "It's Your Biz with Susan Solovic." He was excellent. What I particularly like about Bill, is he is a true business expert. He has had amazing success as an entrepreneur which makes his insight and advice meaningful to the small business audience. I always learn something new when I am with Bill. I truly believe any entrepreneur or business manager can benefit from Bill's experience and expertise.

Bill is the "been there, done that" guy who doesn't just tell you what to do from a "best practices" perspective. On every topic I've hired him to help me with, he brings his valuable expertise and big picture point of view to my business model and then shows me all the options I have to get from point A to point B. His advice has always been relevant, insightful and correct. You don't always hear what you want to hear, but Bill backs up his advice with a solid history of his own business performance. So his message comes not from book learning but from common sense, which I always appreciate. I highly recommend Bill for business building, strategic problem solving and positioning your company for a future buyout--the true purpose of entrepreneurship.

I have had the pleasure of working with Bill on a couple of occasions, and he came in to speak during one of goBRANDgo!'s quarterly seminars and got glowing reviews from all of the attendees. Bill is great to work with and has a deep well of knowledge and experience with businesses across the spectrum.

Bill has worked consistently as a coach wtih our parent company and our division for over 2 years. He has exceeded our expectations on many levels and continues to offer high-level results. I am always surprised at his quick and careful ideas about how to improve our business. He wastes no time, sets clear goals, and keeps on task - every step of the way. He provides information, knowledge, and expertise in Great Game of Business philosophy and applies that directly to our business goals. He has a friendly and professional manner that works excpetionally well with our diverse staff. I would highly recommend him to a friend or collegue and will continue to work with Bill.

Meeting and working with Bill has been one of the best things that has happened to me in my business career. Not only is he knowledgeable and passionate about the Great Game of Business but about business in general. He has shared his time with me when I needed a sounding board and is always ready to roll up his sleeves and get into the GGoB. No matter where my career path goes I know that Bill Collier will be one of the people I will work with until the end.

Bill has exceptional abilities and experience in identifying weak areas and offering true solutions. A pleasure to work with.

Bill was my mentor in our Toastmaster's group. He is a highly respected entrepreneur and sought after public speaker. He is also a great mentor in providing business advice, and a distinguished author of a book How to Succeed as a Small Business Owner. I highly recommend if you need advice on running a business- contact Bill he knows what it takes to be successful in business!
