Did you know that 80% of people in business have had little or no training in running a business? The majority end up going out of business in the first 5 years and most of the ones that make it end up working harder and longer trying to stay on top of things. At Business Success Educators, we believe you shouldn’t have to figure out how to build and run a business all by yourself… and we know how hard business can be when you don’t have the right tools or support. That’s why we designed the Business Freedom Program™. The program is based on the 9 core areas of small business success that form the foundation of a successful business. Learn more about each core area below:
When you get these 9 areas right in your business, then you are well on your way to the business success you imagined when you started your business.. and when your business is thriving, then your home life is thriving and this has a positive impact on your community.
Have you ever been stuck in a meeting that just seemed to waffle on? Or been part of meetings where things get talked about, but nothing ever gets done? Poorly run meetings are unproductive and a waste of time and money. But done well, effective meetings can be a
Cash flow is the lifeblood of any small business. And that’s why it’s important to understand how to manage it effectively. In simple terms, you always need to make sure that more cash is coming in than going out. Otherwise you won’t be in business for long! And while generating
Do you often feel like you’re stuck in a loop, going through the motions of your business without really making progress towards your goals? If so, you’re not alone. Many business owners find themselves in this position, and it can be discouraging. But the good news is that there are
Setting the right Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for your business can make all the difference in driving your business success. KPIs are a powerful tool, but many businesses struggle to use them effectively because they are unclear about where to start or they have too many KPIs to track. To
Too often when someone wants more leads they look to advertise for new customers. What about the people who have enquired recently or bought from you already? In fact, it’s six to seven times cheaper to get someone to buy from you again than it is to get a new
Are you spending money on marketing, but are not sure whether it’s working or not? Can you confidently say if your marketing is giving a return or are you pouring money down the drain? The reality is 80% of marketing bombs. 20% works miracles. So how do you know the
Most business owners know that systemising their business is a good idea. In fact, if you do a task without writing it down, you’re going to be destined to repeat it forever. So why do most business owners never get around to systemising their business? There are two main reasons:
Are you sick and tired of your staff not doing things the way you want them to? This can be avoided by setting things up right from the start. You see, delegation isn’t as simple of saying ‘ Hey Bob… you are now in charge of X’ and leaving them
Do you have a staff member that is underperforming? Are you ignoring it or tackling it head on? I find it all too common that a business owner holds back dealing with poor performing staff. They are worried if they push them too much it might lead to conflict or
We went from $12K profit last year to over $270K this year — but more than that, we’re finally working together, with less stress and more time for family.
We were struggling financially. That’s now changed with turnover up 19% in the last 6 months and we are averaging 16% net profit every month.
Revenue is up 11 times. I have gone from working 50 hours a week down to 30…plus I can now take a month off from my business.
I was able to make real changes – fast. I cut my workload by 15-20 hours a week, grew from 2 to 4 plumbers, and tripled my turnover within 8 months.
Turnover went grew $30K to $500K/mth and I went from 80 hour weeks down to 20. I can go away knowing my team will do the right thing
My working week went from 70-75 to 45 and not working weekends. For the first time as a business owner I have work/life balance.
I’m less stressed and the guys get a lot more of my time into how things work. I have freed up 4 hours a day and enjoy much more family time.
I’m enjoying life much more. Sales have grown by 30% and profits are up 60% this year following a similar result last year. Plus more time for hobbies.
We have grown from 6 to 9 staff. Revenue is up 30% and we have made as much profit in the first 6 months of this year than all of last year.
The training and years of interaction we shared helped set me on the right path, shaping the mindset and framework I still rely on today. My business has never been better, and more importantly, I have found a great balance between work and home life, something I do not believe would have been possible without Rueben’s coaching and the invaluable lessons I learned during our time together. Highly recommend.
