For over 30 years my passion has been helping people to breakthrough and take their businesses to another level - no matter how successful they already are.
GROWTH GURU to small and medium sized companies. For over 25 years, I have been coaching entrepreneur’s - guiding them through the process of hyper-growth.
As President of Protect Painters International, LLC, I took one of the most successful new business ventures of the last decade - to over $12 Million in annual revenues, in just 4 years.. My innovative business leadership helped enable the company to build a rock-solid foundation then grow at 100% year over year - each year, and through that hyper-growth phase, develop my trademark corporate identity.
Prior to growing Protect Painters International, LLC/Protect Painters Development, LLC I was a driving force behind building two major companies- College Pro Painters (the largest student residential house painting business in the world), CertaPro Painters (the largest residential painting business in the world), as well as Colorworks (a mobile scratch/dent repair franchise system). I am also involved in a Master Franchise group that has development rights to Subway in Singapore/Malaysia.
Overall, I have accumulated 30 years of real life experience since starting my first real company at 22. I have a unique understanding of growing companies, having led business areas from Operations, Marketing, Administration and Recruitment/Training to Strategic Alliances, Sales and Call Centers.
I am a guest lecturer for small businesses across the USA and Canada. Attending my popular presentation, “Standards and Rituals” is a terrific first step to learn about setting goals and directing others. My ”Coach’s Corner” video’s on youtube.com give tips to small business owners and I host a regular podcast “Coach’s Chalk Talk” on www.blogtalkradio.com where I interview successful business leaders.
Building a successful brand and hyper-growth business isn't about personality or luck. It's about having the right systems and rituals. I can give you the framework and proven solutions that will accelerate your revenue, build your profitability, and help you avoid costly problems. It really is like having a part-time CEO on staff!
