My office does not run as smoothly as I would like. I'm dealing with too much trivia and sometimes it just seems like chaos.
I have clients who haven't paid me.
I don't know how to be effective when counseling employees on poor performance or what do to when the "office politics" of the staff gets out of hand.
I know I should be making more money but I don't know what to do about it. I'm not getting all that I can financially from my business.
My revenue is not reasonably predictable

Who Will Benefit From This Program?
How to Know If This Is Right For You
There is a group of business owners who share certain characteristics that allow them to benefit from these strategies and actions to grow their business. This program is designed to meet the business building needs of:
- Service-Based Business Owners
- Professionals and Solo-Preneurs in Private Practice
- Dentists and Dental Specialists
- Psychotherapists and Counselors
- Attorneys
- Chiropractors
- Other Health Care Related Professionals
- Business Coaches
- Consultants
- Financial Planners
- Service-Oriented Technology and Internet-Related Business Owners
- They are Trusted Advisors
- They are professionally trained
- They provide services direct to the consumer (clients or patients)
- The service provider owns the business
- As the owner, they also provide (some of) the services of the business
- The service provider most likely did not receive significant financial or business education as part of their training
- The service provider who has employees may not have ever been an employee themselves in their type of business
- Although they have seen many front offices and operations that appear to work efficiently, no one has specifically trained them on how to make that happen in their own organization
You've heard that saying "Work ON your business, not IN it". But if you are a service provider, you often must do both - work on your business and work in it. The trick is in knowing what to do when you’re working “on” the business. Many business owners take that to mean "work on your marketing".
What if I told you that marketing may not be – and actually probably ISN’T the first move to make in your desire for more revenue and more profit?
This story may surprise you...
I am often contacted by business owners who want my help putting together a Marketing Plan. One business in particular stands out. After talking about her current revenue and the goals she had for increasing that number, I flew out to spend time in her offices observing her operations. I observed what was happening in several different areas of her business.
It soon became clear that she did not need a Marketing Plan. Potential new clients were calling for appointments. Clients who came on-site said they wanted the services. So what was happening? With so many people calling for new appointments, and those coming to the office saying that they did want the services, why did the business owner think she needed a Marketing Plan?
Why were those things not translating into more revenue?
Could this be happening in your business?
Strategies, insights and action steps. Clicking here gets you a Free Pass!
I’m Dianne Dawson, your host, and I’d like to tell you why I put this program together. I think that you’ll identify with some of what I share and I hope it will help you to decide to register and participate.
This program was a year in the making. It started as I worked with clients whose businesses should have been more profitable than they were, but somehow, they simply were not.
I know that when a business is not bringing in the level of revenue that it should, there is no “one solution, quick fix”. There are usually several internal issues that are impacting revenue growth and profitability. Sometimes those issues are obvious, but many times they are not.
Adding to the challenge is that service-based businesses and professional practices are run by people like yourself, who are experts in the service they provide, but who may have little or no training in the business side of running a business. In today's more complex business world, with so much demanding your attention, business acumen is more necessary than ever in order for you to build and maintain a profitable, financially successful business.
That's what this program is designed to help you do. We give you the insight, tools and strategies to build and maintain a profitable, financially successful business.
During each interview, I ask the questions you would ask if you could sit down, one-on-one, with each of our experts and entrepreneurs. And, they deliver!
They share relevant information and doable action steps so that you can make changes in your business to achieve your desired goals. The Action Steps at the end of each interview, collectively form a Business Growth Action Plan that's tailored to your specific needs.
Each speaker was hand-selected based on their expertise, their reputation as a Trusted Advisor, and their ability to share information in a way that you can easily understand and use.
Each speaker is an experienced practitioner in their field of expertise and they have honed their expertise by working with clients just like you to resolve the issues and problems they address. They share solutions that are proven. More importantly, they share solutions that you can implement in your own business to turn things around.
No filler. No fluff. Everything is action-oriented.
