Making Your Business Really Fly

"In the final analysis, you'll be the judge as to whether this stuff works. But I've seen it work for fabrication shops, gift stores, department stores, accounting practices, service stations, bike shops, hairdressers, painters, plumbers, motels, restaurants and coffee shops"

— Paul Dunn, RAS Inc.

Results Systems Inc. presents a truly unique seminar based on the story of an ordinary man who grew his business from nothing to a multi-million dollar operation by implementing simple, straightforward ideas that really worked. You'll laugh at Wally's style, but he'll certainly give you some eye-opening ideas about running a more profitable business and having more time to yourself.

The seminar focuses on the typical small business predicament, i.e. owners working too hard for too little return, doing everything themselves, and barely coping with day-to-day operations. In most cases, their business bears little resemblance to the vision they had when they started out. The seminar shows how you can make the crucial transition from working IN your business, to working ON your business, actually managing it and moving it into profitable new growth areas ­ making more money, enjoying more free time, and having a lot more fun.

  • Learn how to increase revenues without spending big marketing dollars.
  • Look at low-cost ways to expand your customer base and keep them coming back.
  • Learn 4 strategies to create an edge your competitors won't know how to match.
  • Find out how to totally avoid costly "discount wars".
  • Discover ways to systematize routine business processes and free up your time.
  • Learn how to measure the right things and generate key information

We work with small business clients only on referral, primarily from bankers or financial planners, and have built an outstanding record of managing growth and increasing profits for local Ottawa companies.

Results Systems is not a quick-fix, 'rah-rah" cheerleading outfit; our techniques are not new or revolutionary, and the investment to get started is minimal. We choose clients with solid potential for profit improvement, help them put together achievable plans, teach them skills they're missing, and stay with them every step of the way to keep them on track. And everything we do is unconditionally guaranteed.

The investment for participation in the "Making Your Business Really Fly!" seminar is $195, which will be immediately refunded to any participant who does not find the seminar to be of genuine value to them.

Advanced Financial Management

An Introduction to Our Advanced Financial Management Training System

Recently we have explained what we have available now that will enable you to understand even more the reasons for business success. This letter may well prove to be the most important communication we have ever had with you.

Please read it carefully and give serious consideration to our invitation to participate in a training program available exclusively to our clients.

As a first step in this process, we're going to conduct a full-day training program on Advanced Financial Management, but I'll talk more about that in a moment.

First we need to make a critically important point:

It is becoming increasingly evident that business profitability no longer depends on how hard you work. Nor is it dependent on luck or circumstance. The fact is, many businesses are doing extremely well. And the reason for this is that in practically every case, they're doing things differently than other businesses.

We are in a unique position to observe how different people operate their businesses. This means we see what works and what doesn't.

One thing that we've observed is this: Those clients who have extraordinarily successful businesses have designed and implemented management control systems that are not only easy to use but are incredibly powerful ways to direct their businesses.

We're not talking here about accounting systems, important though they are.

What we're talking about is systems designed to focus on the small number of things that your business must get right, and then building an operational plan to ensure that it all comes together.

And that brings me back to the Advanced Financial Management Training System program.

If you're serious about improving the profitability (and therefore value) of your business, it's critically important that you adopt modern management planning and control systems.

Our Advanced Financial Management Training System program will bring you up to date.

Specifically, this full-day training program deals with the following issues:

  • What profit really is, how it is measured, and why it is different from cash flow.
  • How you can manage the relationship between risk and return in business.
  • The 4 ways to improve the profitability of your business.
  • How to increase sales revenue.
  • How to analyze costs to improve the performance of your business.
  • A case study on a business that nearly went broke by looking at the wrong measure of performance ... and how the owner increased profitability by 404% in 1 year.
  • How you can use a technique called Cost-Volume-Profit analysis on your own business.
  • What you really need to measure to manage your business effectively.
  • How to measure and control your working capital and ensure that it's consistent with your overall business strategy.
  • How to grow your business so that you can simultaneously increase profit and cash flow.
  • What you need to do now to project and monitor the performance of your business.

This training is specifically designed for small- to medium-sized businesses. So what you'll hear isn't irrelevant theory but a very practical, hard-hitting examination of critically important financial management issues.

If you wish to participate, your investment will be $595 for the full day's program. Your investment will include:

  • A COMPLIMENTARY place for an accompanying person from your business.
  • A participant's guide plus handouts and our booklet, How to Improve the Profitability of Your Business.
  • A COMPLIMENTARY financial review of the past performance of your business, including projections of its future potential.
  • A 2-hour post-AFMTS consultation with us so that we can help you integrate what you learn into your business management plan.

To reserve your place, please contact us.

We look forward to seeing you at the Advanced Financial Management Training System program.

We will refund your fee after the program — if you're not totally delighted with the results. In other words, we guarantee the value of the program.
