The course booklet (about 10 pages) has been designed so that you don't get bogged down with the detail, but so that you can follow along with the course, and fill it out with ideas that are relevant to you in your business. We cover 10 practical strategies that you can go away and implement by yourself.

The course will take about 2 hours to complete. Each strategy is explained in its own module, and you can apply this to your business. Its aimed at the busy owner / manager who just wants solutions and not theory or waffle. Time is short. No doubt you have a lot on your plate and you want to improve your business. You don't need to spend days in a seminar, or hours reading lots of books... these 10 practical steps will give you the boost you need.

Business isn't complicated. If we do a series of things in the right way, then we will see results. You don't need to write pages and pages in a business plan or spend thousands of pounds on consultancy. Just do things in the right way. Have a strategy in place and your profits WILL increase. Review it regularly.
