Course Description

Do you run a small business or just about to start one?

What would your business look like if you could increase your sales numbers, your profit numbers and get the RIGHT clients and customers for your business just by focusing on the things that make a real, significant difference in the next 30 days, roughly for one hour per day?

The Customer Machine Programme

There are lots of systems, products and courses that offer business owners and managers like you, ‘Silver Bullets’ that will 'guarantee them making millions' within days. Here’s the news...Silver Bullets don't exist unless you believe in horror movies.

I won't guarantee you making you your first million or making millions more, what I do genuinely guarantee is a better business and marketing plan in 30 days that will grow your customer and client numbers quickly and cost-effectively. As a business coach in the UK, I’ve worked with businesses large and small. Corporate giants to one man bands. So how do I help make them successful?

It’s very simple. I help them hone in on the real, genuine, key elements of their business and marketing model and help them leverage those elements so that they attract the right customers and clients to their business and in turn, those evolve quickly into more sales and profits. The things that make them unique and different from their competition. Not one size fits all. Never has. Never will.

In this programme, you’ll study the same techniques, ideas, thoughts and processes that are proven by some of the world's most successful businesses and that I use with small businesses that want to grow and expand, by understanding and concentrating on the right things for their business. It doesn’t matter whether they are in retail, services, events or on the internet.

We’ll look at marketing, products, selling, customer reviews, pricing, branding and so much more. And it will only take roughly an hour a day and you’ll be on the road to a 30 Day Business Plan success story.

This coaching and training would normally cost you £3000, but I’m offering it for NOTHING. Yes, that’s right NOTHING! This will dramatically change your business, giving you the roadmap to success.

Why am I doing this?

Part loyalty to what I believe in, partly because I want to 'test it to the max', but more importantly I want you to test it out and reap the rewards of the success that it can bring. The content here is what I've been working on with clients. One client has just signed a three-year deal worth £19.8million and another has gone from £60k last year to sign a deal worth £300,000 for next year. Others have gone from broke to £3,000 a month regularly in less than 8 weeks and one has gone from an income of £400 a month to over £7,000 regularly within months. Plus one client has just signed a deal worth over £9,000,000 over the next 3 years!

So I want more massive success stories so I can show people how simple success can be if you focus on the right thing. 

Sales and marketing the business effectively, as well as focused business planning,  are people’s biggest weaknesses and the ones who say are the best sales closers usually aren’t. Great business people are never satisfied; they read every new sales book and purchase any new sales programme because if you can get that small extra edge, it can be the difference between getting the deal and losing another sale.

The Customer Machine Programme is probably one of the best small business programmes created because it’s so relevant to today’s market. It delivers results! Since the market crash of 2008 consumers and investors are more scared and rather than spending, they are hoarding. And since 2008 more and more micro businesses are springing up and beginning to crowd the market place with inferior lower priced models of product and service, because they believe that's the only way they can compete. This is why it is more important than ever to take advantage of the learnings in this programme. You'll now have the keys to marketing, pitching, selling, and closing to those ideal customers and clients that were previously holding on to their money instead of spending it. After doing this programme I know that you'll pick up at least one secret that will help you sell more and increase your bottom line. Just think of how much money a one-time investment of NOTHING is going to make you long term.
