OK, so what's it all about then?  Well, in conjunction with Peter Thomson, the UK’s leading strategist on business and personal growth, PROBIZ EDGE™ has been created for you to give you the competitive edge in all your sales and marketing activities.

I'm not kidding. 

The facilitators for PROBIZ Edge™ will be myself, Rick Peet, and my colleague Mark P.

Mark Russell has participated in and coached Action Learning Sets and has a wide-ranging experience of working in many different types of businesses and industry sectors.

I can't offer you a cast-iron guarantee.  But then nothing is certain in life (except death & taxes!).

But I will offer this...

Here's The Best Part - The Price of Your Investment!

When we work with private clients we charge a minimum £1,500 per day. The business owners were willing to pay these fees because the profits and tangible benefits they generate far outweighed the costs.

Now on PROBIZ Edge™ you get access to exactly the same facilitation knowledge and expertise for a fraction of the cost.

You'll be working with a small group of other business owner-managers like yourself.

And you'll be meeting for six half day workshops every six weeks or so with the sole aim of working on your business to take it to a whole new level of growth and profitability.

If you want to take your business to new levels of prosperity, this could be for you.

But be ready to get real and get serious. It is not for the faint of heart.

We'll do "hot seats" brainstorming, tough questions, hard choices and real hands-on, get-it-done work.

And the cost for just £997 plus VAT.

I’ve set it at this price so that joining is a no-brainer! If you’re serious about your business, the programme is essential for you.

Once again - that's a six session programme to create a dynamic business growth system that will transform your business quickly to the next level for just £997 plus VAT (six monthly payments).

The price includes the costs of the venue (including refreshments, access to learning resources and programme facilitation.

During 2004 the DTI, partnering with the Chartered Management Institute, conducted one of the largest ever studies of workers in the UK to ask them what inspired them to follow leaders. The Inspirational Leadership: Insight to Action Tool is based on these research findings and its purpose is to enable leaders to be clearer about their most natural leadership styles and strengths so that they can shape their roles and those of their team accordingly. The emphasis is to raise awareness of strengths in leadership.

SPECIAL BONUS THREE WORTH £65 + VAT

A treasure chest of business books, Summaries, audio CDs and DVDs, including Michael Gerber's best seller The E-Myth Revisited.  This is required reading for anyone thinking about starting a business or for those who have already taken that fateful step. The title refers to the author's belief that entrepreneurs - typically brimming with good but distracting ideas - make poor businesspeople. He establishes an incredibly organised plan, so that daily details are scripted, freeing the entrepreneur's mind to build the long-term success or failure of the business. You don't need an MBA to understand or follow its directives; Gerber takes time to explain buzzwords and complex theories. Written in a clear and well-paced manner, The E-Myth Revisited is like receiving advice from an old friend.

These fantastic bonuses are worth an incredible £457.

What are the risks?  Is it too good to be true? 

Don't make that decision until you have spoken to me to find out more.
