SHIRLEY SINGLETON, INC.
JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA

"I engaged Shirley Singleton in January. Shirley was able to analyse the business requirements and derive a set of effective goals to assist me to proactively line up business meetings with a series of Melburnians, who were very helpful to meet and connect with. Additionally she was able to help me develop a model for the business going forward and implement a couple of course changing moves that have led to increases in bottom line profit."

Try our FREE Business Health Check Strategy and Business Development Specialists We work with you to formulate the business strategy that will lead you to achieve the goals an objectives you have set for your business.  You know and are passionate about your business idea and this is a good start for a business however it is important to work with specialists in those areas where you lack expertise.  If however you feel you could benefit from some Strategic Thinking assistance then I could add that dimension and together we would make a great team.  The first step is developing the strategy and writing the strategic plan.  As soon as the plan is written we will convert it to actions required to build a profitable business. Sadly in any marketplace there are a number of new businesses that simply do not make it.  Some of this is because their business concept is not sound but for those whose concept is sound there are a significant percentage who lack business skills and whose good idea fails.  It's not as easy as it seems, sadly the number of good ideas that just succeed because it is the right thing at the right time is miniscule and we all know most of them because they become household names.  Many people try and fail and others trip over the many hurdles along the way before they finally make it in a partial way.  You see Business Development is a specialised skill which takes many years of specific study at a well recognized  Business School before its exponents set themselves up as persons who can assist you.   So you could go it alone, ask your older brother or sister, or hire some one who specialises in Strategy and Business Development.  These people have training in Business disciplines so they are able to help people like you start and manage their new businesses. In my case I am also qualified to help people that may have several years trading experience, change and develop within an existing business. If you are like me you are an experienced business person in your own right, know your business and can speak about your topic from experience as well as from education. The gap seems to be in your knowledge of business management and that is where I can help. So if things are not going as well as you would like then perhaps it is time to call an expert and see if we can work together. If you would like to talk with me further please contact me at [email protected] or Ph: 0414 745 455. I look forward to us being in touch. In the meantime all the best -  "I engaged Shirley Singleton in January.
