ECO VISION ENTERPRISES LTD

DO WORK READY ORDERS WORK? Years ago in the early days of ECO, I put together and led a door-can team. I brought the leads in, everyone was happy. Then it began to fall apart. This lead was not good and that lead was no good, this job never got fitted, this one did but they never made enough money, it all just fell apart. I’m not blaming anyone; it seemed to be the thing then (and still is in some cases now), in that game. We started hearing things like “work ready orders because I have had my fingers burnt in the past”, and it went on, sceptical business dealing with sceptical lead generators. So I ran for the hills, never to return.   I now lead a happy life as a business coach and have done ever since. Looking back I asked myself (with my business coach hat on) why this didn’t work, and was there a better way. Straight away I noticed this was a niche market and didn’t work the way other markets worked, because in the middle of all the other stuff you have to worry about, there is also compliance, and that was why this system was doomed to fail, because none of the process was properly connected. Don’t get me wrong some business owners think, “it works OK for me, or I can’t be bothered”, and that’s OK, if that’s you don’t read on.     Look at marketing on its own, where if a business posted an advert and didn’t get the return they expected, they didn’t say to the media vehicle I’m not paying you because I didn’t get what I expected (even though I never told you what my expectations where in the first place).   How did it all become so disjointed? Sales teams blaming the marketing for getting them rubbish leads, then marketing complaining because they are not allowed to test the market. Compliance saying, this won’t go through. Then the blame game starts. Then the directors shrug their shoulders and say “what going on guys”. Sound familiar? A fix may be:   ·        Start with strategy and planning. ·        Then marketing. ·        Then ad in compliance with lead conversion. ·        Then sales.   Sounds easy! You need all of the above not just one or 2 of them and it must flow, it can’t be disjointed. No more shrugging shoulders or shelling out for a system that clearly isn’t working. If you feel you may need help, hire someone to help you. I’m a business coach. I’m not an accountant and won’t give you advice on your books, just business advice. I’m not a life coach or cheer leader, so may not make you feel good, just business advice.   I’m happy to have a conversation with anyone serious about this (please don’t reply with DM me or more info, in my opinion that’s not someone who is serious).

A business consultant. They will do the work for you (like an accountant). For example a business consultant would do a diagnostic for a client to identify where they may be able to improve their business. Like a combination of marketing, compliance, sales, organizing logistics, post sales, then systemizing it all. The whole 9 yards. If a client then asks if you can do this for them, that is consulting. Price is like anything, you pay for what you get. Consultants can charge £1,000 to £2,000 per day. There are other options like; consultancy for equity, or as a non executive director, you share them with other non related companies, they may be happy to share in any future growth they assist with. This one is a bit of a no brainer; if they create an extra £10 profit will you give the person who made this possible £5. Most people miss this completely! If you want someone to help you increase your turnover by 10, 20 30% or more, how much is that worth to you? All the above are business advisors, and can help guide you through the day to day pitfalls of running or growing a business. To what extent is determined by their skill, their understanding of their clients’ needs and how to meet those expectations. Also, if the advisor and client get on with each other (it may not be a good fit). The most important thing, when looking for advisors is do your background checks, speak to them, and ask challenging questions. One obvious and simple question is; have they ever run their own business? There seems to be a lot of advisors out there who have never run a business, knocked a door or made a cold call, yet have watched a you tube video or read a book and happy to share their knowledge with you for a price. Some are just cheer leaders. Don’t get me wrong it’s important to feel good, but will it put money in your pocket? Also don't be too surprised if they turn you down. The good ones have a healthy case load. I have turned many clients away because we just don't gel (and that's very important for both parties). That said I’ve never met one that won’t spend the time to answer a question or have a quick chat. Sorry for the long explanation, I hope it helps.

What is a Business Advisor and how much do they cost? I know it can be confusing, so I will try and clarify. I am a full time business coach/mentor and growth consultant. My job each day is to help my client grow their business. A business tutor can teach you about business, usually by delivering workshops, online or face to face. This is the cheapest method; normally about £550-£800 for a short course, you can sometimes get this free, check out your local enterprise partnership or local council. A business coach (£50-£150 PPH) can guide you in your business. They may not have a background or experience in your particular business. However they will have a vast knowledge in how to help develop and grow it. Or assist in finding funding for growth. The next one up would be a business mentor (£150-£400 PH) like a coach but they do have a background and proven track record in your industry. Mentors and coach’s help you look at the whole picture; it’s like teaching someone to swim. They can teach you to swim, but can’t swim for you. Then we have a business Consultant: See my next post
