Launching

Perfect for: Aspiring Entrepreneurs

Create Your Lean Business Plan

The number one reason startups fail is misreading market demand. The second is running out of funding. With a proven business plan in place, you can confidently launch your business.

Secure Your Financing

Cash is king in business. Getting the right financing to fund your idea and keep your business running is crucial. John will work with you to determine which funding method is most viable for your idea. 

Grow Your Customer/Patient Base

Most businesses develop a service or product, then find a customer base. Successful startups first develop a customer base then sell them a product or service offering. John will help you investigate the real needs of potential customers and develop your brand so you launch with customers who are ready and excited to buy.

Growing

Perfect for: Businesses in the 2-5 year range, Hospital/Practice Executives

Hone Your Leadership Skills

People don’t quit companies; they quit managers. As your organization scales, its success is dependent on having a highly-effective leadership team that can translate every part of your company’s vision into measurable results. 

Build Strong Company Culture

As your company grows and more team members are added, the culture that made your business successful can become vulnerable and key employees may leave. By creating systems to ensure your organization’s values are embraced and lived by every team member, you’ll retain top talent and top clients. 

Improve and Scale Your Processes 

Streamlining processes, eliminating redundancies and waste, and focusing on the right key performance indicators are key to scaling profitably. We will help infuse lean six sigma standards to create operational excellence.
