Secrets to Success

How’d you like
to get an MBO
in small biz?

IMAGINE your business and life three years from now. Your business could be running without you for months at a time and be worth three times what it's worth today. And you could set yourself up to enjoy more profits from your business no matter whether the economy slows down or recession threatens to shut down all your competitors.

Or you could plug along, struggling to make ends meet. Worse, you could fall into the ever-expanding list of business failures.

But the good news is, the choice is yours.

For those who choose to succeed, we've created a Master of Business Ownership program. It's been designed and tested by busy business owners -- for busy business owners.

We'll be revealing how this system works in upcoming weeks through this column. It's a system of business development that helps you focus your energy, attention and time on small, incremental improvements, instead of big overwhelming overhauls.

What's the difference between an MBA program and an MBO system?

MBA PROGRAMS by their very nature teach students how to administer a business. And while administration may require quite a bit of skill, it is by comparison to ownership a passive role. Students and teachers alike of these intensive multi-year MBA programs have no idea or practical hands-on experience of how to start and own a successful business.

The marketplace is not a passive place. Business ownership is extremely intimate and highly active. Owning a business means defining its DNA, the unchanging code that will determine the vision, purpose, goals, and day-to-day actions of your company.

As an owner you have unlimited influence and control. Small business owners operating in the real world know that owning a business is real work. It's about courage, calluses, and competition -- not magna cum laudes.

The MBO growth system is designed to complement and build upon the hard work you've already invested with a practical, easy-to-follow system that keeps you focused on 12 core competencies required for successful business ownership.

These 12 areas are the core competencies that every small business owner should already be focusing on. The problems is 97 percent of owners out there allow their businesses, clients, and the marketplace to dictate when they focus on each area, and how much time to dedicate on each area.

With the MBO growth system, we help put you back in control, through a systematic framework for growth while maintaining the advantage of flexibility and rapid adaptability.
