Your Team Not Delivering? I Will Help You Make Them More Productive

So, you have found yourself in a situation where your team is not really delivering. They say they will get things done, and you trust them but, there are no results or things are really delayed. Every single time that they say they will deliver you walk away smiling and thinking that they finally get it. They never do. What’s even worse, this is now starting to affect you personally.
The big questions is; can anything be done about this and if so, how?
The short answer is yes, in 98% of cases this can be fixed. The remaining 2% where the issue cannot be fixed are the people that do not want to cause any friction with the team they manage and, are afraid of any changes.
I am not going to say that this is easy as it most likely will require you to change your own behaviour – one of the most difficult things to do. The improvement might not be immediate, it might take a few weeks to implement and it might mean you having to get rid of one or two bad apples (in some extreme cases). The good news is that it really is about 7 or 8 simple steps that you will have to follow slavishly until these become a second nature to you. It really is that simple.
This coaching / help session is for the 98% that are willing to push themselves. I will help you to make sure that your team starts delivering with a no-nonsense approach to team management. I have done this with supervisors and managers from Heildelberg Cement, Legrand, ACE insurance, BHB Billiton, Lafarge, Octapharma, Bombardier, and others.
This approach works for all types of environment: finance department, app delivery, train manufacturing or cement plant maintenance. It is based on a systemic approach to management rather than specific subject knowledge.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

What regional EU ecommerce marketplaces make sense to launch on (besides Amazon) and are there companies that assist with this.

As Nikki said, it does depend on the product. The answer also depends on your marketing strategy. Market place as such will not do your marketing you. For end users there is ebay for for pan-European, Tradera for sweden and many other local ones.

Wordpress Questions

Plugin is easier to install and just go for it. Running a sub directory will require more wordpress and name server setup knowledge including potential secondary wp installation.

Is it worthwhile to get into consulting on public speaking or time management?

It all boils down to how good you are at selling your services and finding clients. As others have said, there is a need for this type of service, question is whether you are able to convert that need into clients.
I would start by doing some market research on how to find potentials and how to convert them into real clients. Only after you have an idea how to do this and, the effort required, can you decide if this is really for you. There will be questions regarding your credentials and why you are so good at this. Also, do not forget the value-add for your clients, how will you ensure they are getting value for money (and that they are aware of it).

What does the evolution of a company profile (staff,rev,etc.) look like of growing a tech consulting company from startup to $1M of revenue look like?

Every case is different but I would expect something as follows. You would probably start with between 2 and 4 people and probably end up at around 5-7 people. They key here will be the people generating the income for the business; both sales and delivery. At $1M you probably would not have an office manager or many ancillary functions as they cost money. You would potentially outsource your accounting. If your sales staff/person is very good you would start with selling one or two project. As these are being delivered next ones would be sold and so on until you cannot deliver more and you have to hire another consultant. At this stage you would probably take in contractors until you are certain of the project pipeline. This will differ for FT projects and PT projects. It will also depend on the daily rate you are charging. If the daily rate is $1k then you are looking to sell 1000 man days to get your $1M => 4 guys working 250 days per year. Add 1 sales guys and 1 or 2 junior staff plus office costs etc. The time of this can take is as little as 6 months or it can be 2 years - all depends on your sales.
