One Big Reason Your Business may be Struggling

BENEFITS

While peer performance groups or mastermind groups can sometimes be hard to understand if you have never experienced one, many of our members have expressed the following benefits to the program:

ACCOUNTABILITY

Are you a CEO or business owner that operates a company without a board of directors or advisors? If so, then you probably know how difficult it can be to hold yourself accountable. Have you ever had a decision you didn’t want to make or project that you just could not seem to finish? When you’re the boss, it’s easy to push things off, but ultimately it is business that pays the price. That is where a group of like minded business people can help a solo entrepreneur or small business owner hold themselves more accountable and therefore push through those more difficult times.

BUSINESS EXPERTISE

Business owners often think their businesses are unique and different from all other companies out there. While that is true in some aspects, it is a fact that about 80% of a business is the same across all industries and sectors. Most have clients, vendors, business administration, payroll, and the list goes on and on. This is where a group of CEOs and business owners can help one another. They understand the problems and challenges that a person faces while building a company. Take the chance to learn from others and maybe side step a few of those landmines that all business owners know are out there waiting for them.

NEW IDEAS

Who remembers the old English proverb, “Two heads are better than one.” Of course you do. And why do you remember it … because it’s true! Peer groups can be a great sounding board where you discuss issues or strategies for taking your business to the next level. Bounce ideas off other business owners and take input from those that understand and are in your same shoes. Not to mention, due to the groups being industry specific, you will get out of the inbred thinking of your industry and bring in new ideas that set you apart from your competition.

About us

Bringing focus to Executives and CEOs through the use of Peer Performance Groups/Masterminds.

CEO Focus DFW is a membership based peer-consulting group or sometimes better known as mastermind groups made up of company presidents, business owners and CEOs. In our group meetings, we work on specific business issues that are confronting our members. Groups are industry exclusive, meet once a month and consist of 8-14 members from various industries and backgrounds. Although the benefits of group membership can often times be difficult to quantify, many members find advantages in the following areas: increased profitability, increased accountability, opportunity to collaborate with other like minded individuals and business owners giving them a strong support network, improved delegation skills, business coaching input, improved level of business expertise, and a higher quality of living. It can be lonely at the top, but that does not mean you have to go it alone. You may feel your problems are unique to your business, but there are many other CEOs with similar issues. Our groups are designed to help you with the difficulties of running a business and provide a forum to discuss key business issues and their creative solutions. We want to help you get your business to that next level. Owning a business automatically enrolls you in the School of Hard Knocks. Don’t you think its time to drop out and learn valuable lessons from your fellow CEOs and business owners instead of going it alone? CEO Focus DFW can help you do just that! Your business is YOUR VISION, let CEO Focus DFW provide OUR FOCUS!

Principal

Kimberly grew up around business and even started her first company while attending SMU. She loves being able to help business owners see things in their companies that they are often times too close to see themselves.

Testimonials

Kimberly and I have worked together on many occasions throughout my career in business growth and development (marketing, specifically) and I cannot think of someone that I would recommend more highly in the areas of strategic planning or business development. Kim has the ability to clearly see the long game in planning and to help me to see the forest from the trees when I get nose deep into a mission that I lose focus. Her instruction is clear and concise. She stays focused on the business model and she does this with a compassionate approach while still remaining assertive in her practice. She is professional, ethical and extremely intelligent with business. She’s a natural.

Jeff Brown

Kimberly has been instrumental in helping me get focused on a business strategy and helping me stay on track with it. I was trying to be in every market as I thought that was the best way to grow, but it was proving too difficult. Kimberly helped me understand by narrowing my market; I was actually able to reach more potential clients. My company has grown exponentially since working with her. I look forward to our continued work together and where it will take me.

Christine Eustice

My most recent assistance from Kimberly came when I was thinking of entering the small business marketing industry with my own company (new business, built from scratch.) She took the information I already had and drove me toward sticking to the business plan and doing the necessary work to accelerate from Step 1 to Step 2 and so on until the particular projects were completed. She kept me focused on direct productivity and profit building, while being patient while I worked through my own learning curves. In whatever venture you are thinking of using Kimberly (which is why you are reading her recommendations, of course) push her up to the top of your list. I guarantee you and your business will be more successful for it.
