3LC Business Improvement

• Cherry Hill, NJ

• CEO

  • May 2014 - Dec 2015

  Utilizing my 30 years of successful entrepreneurial experience, ranging from start-up to large corporate, to assist business owners and company management to realize their company vision by focusing on 3 elements critical to the success of all businesses: - Accelerated Sales - Improved Profit Margins - WOW! Customer Service A focus in these three areas can provide a solid foundation to develop and grow a successful business. Missing on any one or more of these functional areas can be an impediment to achieving the company's vision and in many cases results in poor performance or even leading to the failure of the business. Besides those three core areas an important question to be answered if you are seeking accelerated growth for your business is what makes you different/special? Or are you following the herd of other competitors in your industry. Working with entrepreneurs and management teams we develop strategies together to address profitable business growth and monitor execution. Show less
