    I must admit I do tend to go a tad off-script at times, however a vital part of the role, in my opinion is to set the tone of the meeting it is important that our meetings have that spark, that spark that leaves visitors and members alike feeling that they had a great meeting with like-minded business owners, and it is a meeting that everyone wants to attend.

    PRESS RELEASE: Geelong Small Business Festival

    Geelongโ€™s Astute Business Coaching presented the inaugural workshop for Geelongโ€™s Small Business Festival, the first of over a 100 seminars and workshops designed to help Geelong Business .

    Principal Brian Duckworth delivered the โ€˜Business Building Boot Campโ€ to attendees at the Council Chambers on Wednesday 1/8/12, the Workshop focussed on helping attendees explore their dreams, goals and visions for a preferred future; gain an understanding of the 5 Pillars that underpin any business and create action to move them towards their goals.

    Participants increased their knowledge of the major business foundations of Time, Team, Money, Systems and Business Planning that impact all business and, more importantly how to overcome the aspects of those issues that hold back business growth and profitability.

    Participants praised the seminars as helpful, informative and worthwhile, saying:
    " Excellent, informative session. I feel much more motivated and empowered with knowledge in moving forward with my business."
    " Thank you. It was extremely helpful and insightful. Great Value"
    " Excellent - Now a matter of adopting."

    It is a fact that some of the greatest opportunities for success are going to be found by those who prepare, learn and plan in how they will dominate market share as others leave the business. The business workshop will help set a foundation for success no matter what the economic conditions. Our aim, is to empower business owners the practical skills and tactics to counter the increasing impact of business pressures and competition in their marketplace.

    The workshop was extremely well received and many participants showed interest in joining the full 13 week Business Boot Camp which expands and develops the actions needed to create an awesome business โ€“ a profitable enterprise that provides the owner with a balance between family and work life; More nformation from Astute Business Coaching 03 5294 0881.
