Increase Profits, Be more Organized, attract a Higher Quality & Quantity of Referrals, Run Your Business so That It Doesn't Run You, Take Your Business to the Next Level... With Breakthrough Business Development!

Breakthrough Business Development shows you how to attract and keep great clients, while running a profitable and efficient business. It helps every knowledge-for-profit professional to maximize your most valuable client relationships, and to develop a personalized business development plan to mine the untapped potential in your business.

Praise for the Pareto System, Featured in Breakthrough Business Development.

"I am just beside myself on the results gathered so far from instituting the Pareto System. I use an agenda for meetings now and have formulated a standard package given to new clients. Already I have sent out twenty thank-you cards to new referrals. I even got a referral from a referral if that makes sense. Some clients didn't know that I was still expanding my business. I am also finding advocates that I didn't classify as such. Opening twenty accounts in this short time span is amazing but already I have another ten leads in the pipeline. You guys were right, it does work."

"We have been building client relationships for 45 years... Pareto Systems successfully helped us to pause and then guided us through the process of defining the appropriate business structure and systems which will strengthen and enhance our best client relationships. We are now focusing on a comprehensive, systematized program for select clients. The results have been amazing-client satisfaction is way up and so are revenues."

RUN YOUR BUSINESS SO THAT IT DOESN'T RUN YOU
TAKE YOUR BUSINESS TO THE NEXT LEVEL...
WITH BREAKTHROUGH BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

If, as the Pareto Principle states, 80 percent of your business comes from 20 percent of your clients, do you have a process to ensure that you are investing 80 percent of your time with those most deserving clients?

Achieving a business breakthrough is done by design, not by luck or chance. BREAKTHROUGH BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT offers a clear plan to take your business to the next level. It provides a proven system that will help you manage, build, and maximize your client relationships in just 90 days, while you run your business efficiently. The 12-week program is built on the four cornerstones of the STAR system:

  • Strategic Analysis
  • Targets and Goals
  • Activities
  • Reality Check

These four simple, proven steps provide the what, the why and the how of running and building an efficient business. BREAKTHROUGH BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT includes forms and templates, through the authors' website, to help you create your own personalized business development plan for attracting and keeping valuable clients.

BREAKTHROUGH BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT is ideally suited for every knowledge-for-profit entrepreneur: financial advisors, accountants, lawyers, insurance brokers, architects, engineers, medical professionals, contractors, mortgage brokers, professional services consultants, entrepreneurs and owners/managers of small and medium sized businesses--or anyone who thinks for a living.
