Bruce shares lessons and his learnings as a consultant after being one of the most location independent Business Consultants in our network.

1:20 Bruce Cowan has been a Business Success Partner for 4 years and a firm owner based in Helensville, North of Auckland

1:38 Bruce was brought up in Kenya and started his career as a civil engineer in the U.K. – Bruce talks about his career prior to becoming a business consultant

3:57 What attracted Bruce to business consulting?

4:50 I decided to just simply walk into the businesses that I knew or around the area and talk to them. I’ve absolutely brown away by the way people opened up –

4:53 Bruce talks about his first 6 months experiences as a business consultant.

6:08 I acquired my first 3 clients within about 3 months and two of those I’m still working with – Bruce recalls.

6:27 How did you get clients in the beginning?

I had to start from square one - initially worked on cold calling. Nowadays it’s much more about my network… Bruce tells us how he acquired his clients at the beginning and how he does now.

7:52 What benefits have you got from the Business Success Program?

Business Success Programme is a logical process – it enables you to look at every part of business and scrutinises it for the gap, and where the gain’s going to be in need. It also provides the tools that we will need to make those changes – Bruce explains about BSP

9:00 ConsultX has revolutionised my working process: what comes out of discovery meeting and diagnostic meeting flows directly through to the business plan, personal visions, business vison, implementation… it’s all integrated – Bruce describes the benefit of BSP

9:37 Most of my clients are well established now so my main use of ConsultX is in the implementation stage: we incorporate Xero or MYOB; get to download financials directly into the programme; monthly financial meeting is much easier to present nicely than it used to be – Bruce explains

11:06 Pharmacist, Liquor Outlet, Travel Agent, Construction Business and landscaping business – Bruce, who has two associates in his firm, tells us about his clients and their businesses

13:26 Client failures

16:53 Bruce tells us how he helped his clients to build better businesses in details

24:34 I set my boat up so that it has a modem on it, which means that I can do remote meetings and quite a lot of work from the boat, which means that I can spend awful lot of my time away not necessarily being in the office – Bruce talks about his unique lifestyle

25:39 Because I have very large distances to travel, I quite often do remote meetings by Skype or by the internet – again I don’t have to be in the office to do my work

27:21 Business Success Programme has been built up over a number of years; being put in many consultants’ (knowledge); the fact that each one of us still use the programme in the day to day process means that it does work - Bruce talks about the best part of ConxultX

29:30 Working with experienced partner is absolutely valuable – Bruce talks about benefits of working with his team

30:59 Remember If they say it’s true and if I say they can argue about it– Bruce gives listeners some advises from his experiences

32:30 David and Julius dissect important points of the interview.

Phil shares lessons and his learnings as a consultant after being one of the most successful Business Consultants in our network.

2:22 Phil Wicks has been with ConsultX us for 3 – 4 years; he has been our consultant of the year for a couple of times and Number 1 consultant a few times, and is currently building a consulting firm in Waikato New Zealand

2:41 Phil talks about his background – his corporate career before he became a consultant, including his General Manager role in the US

3:36 Because I had a fairy strong career around people, leadership, marketing and sales and also managing businesses and I felt like I had a really good and divers enough background that I could actually offer something to small & medium size businesses – Phil tells us what attracted him to business consulting

4:08 I had pretty good experience starting off considering that I came into regionally I hadn’t lived before and I had no networks; so I had to create my own; I had pretty good attitude; and I was pretty determined to succeed and I think that helped – Phil tells us about his first 6 months as a business consultant after coming back from the US to New Zealand

4:59 Because I didn’t have network of people so I relied very heavily on telemarketing and Business Breakfast BNI system to get with - Phil compares how he acquired clients in the beginning and how he get them now

6:02 Probably the biggest benefit is that you’ve got whole information in one place - Phil describes the benefit that he gains from Business Success Programme

7:37 I’ve been working between 11 and 14 clients; they would range from a starter to 6 – 7 million turn over company - Phil talks about his clients and type of their businesses

9:33 Obviously we have to work with enough clients long enough for them to get benefits and for them to recommend to other people – Phil tells us how he started to get referrals

11:58 Phil talks about what he learnt from his client loss experience - I do think it’s important that you do keep on pushing the progress and not only pushing the progress, but also reminding them the progress that you actually make, you know, you can make significant positive changes to businesses very very quickly

15:50 Phil gives us some examples of how he helped his clients to build better business

23:24 I try to take Fridays off when I can; you have busy days and you have some quieter days and I think the fact that you have a bit more control of what those days would be does make a really good lifestyle…

25:50 Phil explains how he met and chose Business Success Programme - I came to the conclusion that if I wanted to have the best chance of succeeding I wanted to get involved in something that already has systems working and also with people that are already successful; having the system that you can actually follow is very very valuable and; trying do that yourself would cost a lot of money

27:57 You need to create a really good client acquisition plan and system. I think it is really important especially when you first start – Phil gives some practical advices from his experience to the listeners

6:32 I realised that it was a head down back side up; I very quickly had confirmed to myself that I had to get out and get in front of as many potential clients as I could-Steve talks about his first 6 months as a business consultant

6:54I remember putting my first business plan together after going through a number of meetings and following the Consultx program, thinking god if it takes me this long to do this what’s going to be like once I get 7 or 8 clients?!; now takes me probably 20% of the time that used to put things together–Steve tells us how he got used to the whole process and how much his work got efficient

8:35I got my first client through telemarketing; I then actually got another one through unusual way which was direct enquiry to the business; I got the rest through the referrals, or just talking to people- Steve tells us how he got his clients at the beginning and later

10:07 when you walk through the door based on referrals or talking to people, you have a very warm appointment right from the first minute; there is trust fact comes in straight away; that breaks down a lot of barriers fairly quickly–Steve talks about advantages on getting clients through referrals

11:00 The programme gave me a parkway to follow from start to finish, which, when you first put the feet on the ground, is pretty assuring that you know there’s something backing you up-Steve describes the benefits that he gains from Business Success Programme

13:31 Structure of all businesses are exactly the same, what they do is a bit different–Steve tells us about his diverse clients’ businesses

15:30 Businesses that have probably not formed as well as I would have wished, I would say that common denominator would be that they haven’t helped themselves as accountable as they should have and ensuring to get all the identified business improvements or what we call tasks done in a timely manner–Steve analyses his experiences.

18:00 Steve gives us some examples of how he helped clients to build better businesses

This week’s podcast is all about our Client Acquisition Formula that we have developed and used over the years. 

We have decided to do a podcast on it, as the Acquisition Formula is an easy way to explain to you what you have to do to be successful in the consulting profession, because we all need Clients.

The name of the game is to grow your consulting business as fast as you can so that you do not suffer a loss of income whilst you transition from employment to self-employment.

Client acquisition is one of the most important parts of being a Business Success Partner because we all need Clients so we can earn fees each month, what we are about to discuss is at the very foundation of effectively signing Business Owners to become your Clients.

A few weeks ago, I mentioned that I was going to do some work on the words we use when speaking to Prospects because I believe that slight changes in our presentations will pay huge dividends in signing up new Clients. 

I am not an expert in this area but I do know that we should eradicate certain words and replace them with new positive words, the eradicated words cause confusion and doubt in the Prospects mind, and the replacement words will instil confidence and trust.

Business Consulting can also involve coaching your Client on a personal level tool. We have developed a Wheel of Life Tool to assist you in this area. 

Through using the Wheel of Life tool we are looking to capture how the Client feels about areas of their business and their personal life, we are looking to help them to make improvements and the first step is to identify them and capture them in a process.

While we are discussing how they feel we encourage them to set some action steps or tasks for improving the situation.

In our Consulting Franchise I was in charge of recruitment for 6 years. Over the years I have spoken to probably around 1000 people who have wanted to become a Business Consultant, Coach or Advisor. 

I got to understand why people want to become a Business Consultant and I have compiled a list of these reasons.

I think existing Consultants will get a lot from this Podcast because they will benefit from a refresher course of the enormous possibilities that can be achieved from being successful in this profession, and new people will be enlightened to the features and benefits of this fantastic business opportunity.

Many people in our network ask about what type of business makes the best Clients.

Well the answer is that any type of business can make a great Client as every business has the same DNA, what I mean is that every business works the same way, it has revenue, expenses and if a good job is done by the Owner a surplus or a profit.

The objective of every business is to create an ongoing predictable flow of transactions where the cost of the transactions is less than the prices that the goods or services are sold for, thus creating a surplus or a profit.

Yet so many business owners have no idea of this very simple business principle, they get all caught up in the euphoria of having a new business and doing things that they lose money, their equity or liquidity as their business hurtles towards bankruptcy, and they do not know why blaming everything but themselves.

You should all know by now that “if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it” so unless the owner has accurate monthly financials he or she will have no idea what is working and what isn’t in their business. And you know that business owners are not stupid people because if they had access to an accurate monthly report and they knew they were losing $20k per month they would be concerned and try to do something about it, but whats really happening is they are flying blind.

I want to tell you about some Clients of mine I had in Australia and specifically drill down into their financial situation to show you some of what you might expect to see out in the marketplace, I think you will be surprised when you get out there just how bad things can get.

Today we are going to talk about one of the most important ingredients required to be a highly successful business consultant. That ingredient is the ability to focus 100% on whatever you have to do to be successful in this profession.

We have trained a lot of people over the years and I can say that one of the biggest problems some of them have is an inability to focus on just one thing and be successful at it, I have told my kids since they were able to speak that to be successful in life all you need to do is to become very good at just one thing, become an expert at it and you will be set for life. 

John Lee Dumas from the Entrepreneurs on Fire Podcast says in nearly every show— FOCUS "Follow One Course Until Success”. One of the best acronyms I have ever heard, it perfectly describes the process to become successful in anything you want to become an expert at.

I've been thinking over the last few days what is actually going on in the mind of the Prospect during the Acquisition of your relationship.

How often have you been into a first meeting and the Prospect has their arms crossed and a grumpy face, feeling like they have been talked into meeting you? Then a dramatic change in their persona once we starting getting into the process.

This type of behaviour lies at the core of what we experience in the first few meetings and there is a very good reason for this....

One of the most important parts of Business Consulting is getting the fee structure right, it has to be fair to both parties who are in the consulting agreement. 

Too low and you will regret taking on the business. Too high and the Business owner will regret taking you on and they may terminate a few months after signing with you.

Very rarely you will find a business with a business plan, and if you do it will probably be way out of date and useless. Business Plans are not magic and just because a client may have one it will not work unless it is current and carefully managed and executed. Businesses who do not have a current Business Plan usually end up failing and blaming everybody except themselves causing havoc with everybody around them including their Families.
