Uncomplicate Your Business Growth

An interactive seminar: About: Your business is still not growing the way you want it to – even after all of your invested time, money and energy. Let us un-complicate this for you.
After over 15 years working with thousands of business owners across North America, we’ve found that there’s no “one-size-fits-all” solution to business growth. There are, however, simple concepts that every business owner should know that propel a business forward.

When: Tuesday June 25th

Time: 1:30 – 3:30 pm

Where: Suite Success at ESS Direct

Register by June 20th at: 5waystobizgrowth.eventbrite.ca

• Clarity on what most business owners assume is the right path to growth and why it’s ultimately derails your growth
• Identify how to make changes in your unique business that will power growth without unnecessary stress
• How to plan for future growth without all the chaos and sleepless nights

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
• Your business is like a screaming toddler that is demanding all of your time, attention and energy
• You’re sacrificing your personal lifestyle – so that you can build your business, but it’s happening SO slowly.
• You value your people and their contribution to your business growth (even if you are pulling your hair out from frustration)
• You’re working harder than everyone else and you’re the last one to get paid… and it probably sucks

Stoke Growth -5 Ways Poster

Are you currently one of the GVers who appears on the referral gift list for those who refer new GVers to the program? Or are you a grad who would like to offer a referral gift of $50 in value (and have that cost covered?)

It is an opportunity for free exposure to people who believe in the program with a listing of your company and the gift you are offering (whether or not the referring person refers you!). It may introduce a new client to your services as well and gives them a chance to try your services.

How it works: When someone is referred to Grow Vantage, joins the program (and does not opt out or become delinquent), the referring person is sent a list of graduate GV suppliers who describe their referral gift (value of $50.00 – or more at your discretion).The size of the offer is up to you (it could be a product, a service or a discount), the payment is always $50.00.

They choose the offer they want and are connected to the GVer who supplies it. Once they redeem the offer, I send that GV supplier payment of $50.00.

Interested in being part of the list? Please send me an email at patricia@growvantage.com

We’re launching this group with a new addition to the program on the Entrepreneurial Mindset (along with Insurance of course!) with Lori Bertoni (Group 28) who is a Master NLP Practitioner and coach. She’ll share her experience on developing an entrepreneurial mindset. Are you curious? This session will open up our first class of Group 49 and if you’d like to attend – please let me  know.

If you know someone who will benefit by Grow Vantage: real information about how to develop their business, idea creation and help in implementing, as well as a community that continues to be the very best support, please introduce us or drop me an email at patricia@growvantage.com.

It’s hard to believe that we’re approaching the Group 50 mark, that in the Fall we’ll celebrate 16 years of helping entrepreneurs develop relationships, develop their  businesses, and getting on the path to success! Stay tuned for more about that!

Here is tan article that suggests we should tighten up our security when we send questions or passwords for electronic funds transfers over email (because of the possibility of email hacking).

https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/rbc-customer-out-of-pocket-after-e-transfer-fraud-1.5128114

I am going to suggest that those who provide me with an EFT provide the answer to the security question via text (a separate system) and that the question does not have a well-known answer.

GV Networking Meeting is Tuesday May 14^th from 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm at Suite Success.

Topic: Working on our own stories…and content that will appeal to our customers

As a follow on from our annual dinner (thank you to those who have attended), let’s work on sharing and applying our stories to customer attraction and sales process. We’ll have an open discussion on how we can use stories to relate to our customers and differentiate ourselves from others in our market.

For those of you who were not able to attend, we’ll recap the high points of the session to allow us to work on our stories.

See you then!

Date: Tuesday May 14th

Time: 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm
