Client Feedback

While we were at the seminars for Make Mine a Million $ Business, http://www.makemineamillion.org/, a man approached me at the break. He said, "Your firm handled my divorce a few months ago. I wanted to give you an update---my ex-wife and I are still talking, and we've been able to part as friends. I'm still good friends with my brother-out-law (my ex-wife's brother) and attend his kids' soccer games. Mediation, http://www.peace-talks.com/, allowed us to move on with our lives in a way that made sense. My ex-wife got a promotion and my career is thriving too. I just wanted to let you know what a difference Peace Talks made in our lives by letting us handle an unfortunate situation with dignity."

WOW! That was really powerful. His words really put into perspective our Peace Talks Vision Statement: At Peace Talks, we create peace in the world one family at a time. And it's true.

2008 Update

I was at the Make Mine a Million $ Business http://www.makemineamillion.org/ event in Burbank in January. It was the day after the awards and we were at the seminar, talking about our struggles and progress since joining the Count Me In http://www.countmein.org/ community. I shared that two years ago I was worried that I ought to close my busines and find a job. But through utilizing the resources provided by Make Mine a Million and CMI, I instead refocused my efforts on growing the business and reaching out (rather than recoiling in fear) and in 2007 I hired 5 new pepole and my gross revenues were up 20%. My profitability increased by 250%. When my vision got big, so did the numbers, and it was Make Mine a Million $ Business that inspired me to that vision.

Now for a quick 2008 update: during the first 6 weeks of the year, we're up 60% year to date. I'm repaying my lines of credit and I've hired two new employees. I'm working with a terrific business coach, Dennis McCue, http://www.dynamicfirm.com/ and we've got an ad campaign going with Val Pak.

I've moved my $1 million in gross revenues ahead by 1 year, and I'm shooting for it to happen this year. That's a big goal, but I've learned the difference between thinking big and thinking small, and I like thinking BIG much better!
