How Mentoring Results Are Measured
Business mentoring focuses on these figures...
Net Profit Margin
This is the most important figure in any business.
Every business has the potential to increase the Net Profit Margin from 3% to 32%, which clients regularly see achieved. A 3% increase is $30,000 more in Net Profit, per million dollars of revenue.
Revenue
Increased revenue seen in Profit & Loss Statements is an easy way to see financial improvement.
Hours of Working In Your Business
How many hours you work in your business is a great way to determine progress towards a fantastic lifestyle - where working at all is optional.
B2C results are best achieved with Facebook, measured by...
Business Page Likes
Page Likes for $0.90 to $2 is the goal by the second week, and is commonly achieved, to allow for cost-effective boosted posts to generate leads.
Website Visitors from Facebook PPC Ads
Visitors to business websites is a great opportunity for B2C service businesses.
Achieving that for under $1 per click/visitor is commonly seen by clients, even with a $20/day budget.
Results are seen for organic search traffic with Search Console
Organic Search Impressions
Website impressions, Seen in Google Search Console are appearances in search engine results. When impressions increase so does the number of website visitors and usually the number of leads and sales.
A 20% jump in impressions in the first month is common. This rate of increase can usually be maintained for months, unlike many SEO companies that say it takes 6 to 12 months to get results.
Organic Clicks/Website Visitors
Increasing impressions by 20% also increase website visitors, although sometimes not at the same rate. Still, 20% is a worthwhile goal to expect in the first month and beyond.
The Performance & Candidate Numbers from Seek
Marketing results are measured by...
The Number of Leads
Tracking the number of leads by lead sources every week before starting makes it easy to see results, by the numbers. This accountability ensures you're never guessing as to the value of this services.
Number and Income from Sales

Conversion rates can be increased, commonly by 10% to 50% in one to two months with our proven strategies. The same increase in monthly income is the result.
A sequence of strategies to achieve financial goals
Breakthrough Goals Are Set
It starts with a detailed questionnaire to identify frustrations, growth limitations and growth opportunities. From that specific, breakthrough goals are achieved.
Commonly, a 50% to 300% increase in Net Profit is the goal that is set to be achieved in a 12 month or less timeframe. Often that goal is smashed with clients often seeing over 1,000% increase in Net Profit in far less than a year.
Net Profit Increase
A Net Profit increase is the primary focus of the Strategic Planning process. It is checked for increases each month with Profit & Loss Statements.

Business growth happens by increasing numbers. It begins by setting up a full management reporting system.

Business Mentoring - Financial Results
Allan Baggs - Precision Powder Coating & Sandblasting
"Now that I have a full time manager I don't have to be working in my business"
"Until the time we met Tim, the business turning over between $18,000 and $30,000 per month with myself struggling with one employee. Now we have 12 employees and our turnover will be in excess of $2,000,000.
Now that I have a full time manager, I don't have to be working in my business. I choose to work in the business. If I'm not working in the business I spend time with the family, I go fishing and I restore motorcycles. I'm planning on my exit strategy, having a passive income from the business, and all because I put a manager on and trust him to do the job."
Industry: Powder coating & sandblasting
Joanna and Brad Apps - ECConnect
"We went from working 60 to 80 hours per week down to 40"
"Before the business mentoring course, the business was really struggling, with the Net Profit Margin at 1%. We didn't even know what that was. We were just doing the day to day work, but not really making money.
I was really in the trenches, juggling issues, juggling staff, and trying to manage clients and not really running the business. There was a lot of stress and we really needed to do something. Now our net profit margin is running around 16.5%.
Before the course, we had expanded into America, and had a team in Poland, Sydney and Brisbane but we hadn't thought about all the systems we should have.
The best thing about the course was it improved our mindset, helped us to understand people more and gave us tools and systems to use."
Industry: Software development
"My business grew from 8 people to 26"
"My business grew from $1.5 Million to $4 Million and I work 32 hours per week now and it used to be 65.
I'm a lot happier, I have a better lifestyle, have a lot more fun, I really enjoy coming to work and I enjoy the people I work with.
When we first met our net profit margins were up and down, as low as 8%, which was horrific and now at the start of the financial year its running at 25% net profit on a 3 times higher turnover and we have a goal to get to 28% on a $5 Million turnover.
The best money I've ever spent. Invest in yourself, get some freedom, because that's what you're going to get from Tim's business mentoring."
Industry: Electrical contracting

"Tim is the best adviser and mentor to help small businesses grow that I have come across in my 30 or so years in the accountancy profession.
He has a suite of tools that looks after the practical side for businesses wanting to grow. Too many in this industry are sprookers with little or no substance.
Tim is the real thing with experience and systems to get profits flowing."
Business Growth or Business
Transformation?
Growing a Business by 20% in Revenue is a Good Goal
But increasing the Net Profit by 50% and the Net Profit Margin by 5% or more is a transformation goal.
Increasing profit margins needs a very different approach because it's not all about marketing. Different thinking and innovation are required, not duplication.
The innovation processes can lead to the owner not feeling financial stress, employees being happier, and hiring staff isn't a challenge any more. The business grows consistently, without the owner's time.
Profit is a transformation.
