"Six Steps to SuperGrowth: Practical strategies

for building the consulting practice of your dreams" 

When you established your consulting practice you had a big dream.  You were going to build a successful, growing business and have the freedom you wanted to enjoy your life.  Then, something horrible happened -- reality replace the dream.  You learned that it's not enough to have a "big dream" -- you also have to know how to make that big dream happen. 

Michael Kramer will get you back to dreaming again.  He will share with you his award-winning leadership formula that lets you take control of your business-development process and breakthrough to extraordinary success.  Here's what you'll learn: 

  • Kramer's breakthrough strategy for growing beyond your current practices size.
  • The management systems you need to fill your sales-funnel and eliminate dry-spells.
  • Strategies for building value in your business so that your consulting practice can one day be sold.
  • How to transform your practice into a finely tuned, moneymaking machine.

Presenter: Michael Kramer - Win Big Institute

Michael Kramer started his first Chicago-based business when he was only 23 years old. He built his company into a multi-million dollar success and before hitting the age of 40 sold it to a world famous, Silicon Valley venture Capitalist. 

Today, Kramer is founder of the Win Big Institute, which is dedicated to transforming growth oriented businesses into highly organized, innovative, productive and profitable market-leaders. His proprietary business building system has been awarded the "Most Innovative Program of the Year" by the Chicago based Duman Center. Kramer's pioneering process was recently featured in the Chicago Tribune. 

Besides being a guest lecturer at the University of Chicago, Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management and Loyola University, Kramer speaks to business audiences eager to learn his revolutionary formula for making big dreams happen.

Program Objectives:

  • To provide participants with the opportunity to understand each other's consulting practices and business needs in more detail.
  • To offer participants different views of their own businesses from the perspectives of their peers.
  • To foster a more collaborative environment where members may find opportunities to partner and/or to provide referrals to each other.

Methodology:

After dinner members and guests will choose from one of several tables where participants will hold small group discussions.  In the small groups, each participant will have 5-7 minutes to answer a series of questions.  Other participants may then ask questions and provide feedback to the presenter. 

Following the introductions, participants may continue the small group discussions on topics of interest generated earlier or may engage in one-on-one discussions as appropriate. 

Participants should be prepared to answer the following questions in the discussion groups: 

  1. What are your top 3 benefits to your clients?
  1. Why would a client use your services as opposed to someone else?
  1. What are 2-3 typical problems your potential clients might have and how you would solve them?
  1. What type of clients are you seeking?  Give a brief profile.
  1. What do you see as your biggest business challenge for 2006?  How will you address that challenge?
