The Drain Man
Brendan recognised the potential of his business and had the desire to grow it. However he did not understand how to put the required structure in place. He has learned that as the business is growing and evolving, it's about the numbers. And without a clear understanding of the numbers you cannot be successful.
H2-Pro Plumbing
H2Pro Plumbing is a family-run business that offers "more than 'Bum Crack and Blue Heeler' plumbing. Owners Tony and Tristan Wise wanted to reinstate good, honest, old-fashioned customer service. Although they had used trade-based mentors, since joining our Board of Directors 12 program, their growth has "skyrocketed".
The Cartridge Family
The Cartridge Family is a family-run printer and consumables supply business that services businesses across Australia and New Zealand. Running a family business presents a number of difficulties, including communication problems between family members.
MotoSign
Motosign delivers vehicle signage, car wraps, shop front signage, wall graphics, outdoor banners and much more. Owner Matthew Adams joined our Board of Directors 12 program in 2017 and within just one year, the business has achieved phenomenal growth, including doubling their revenue within a year, growing their team from 4 to 7 and doubling their Average Dollar Sale.
MIA Consulting
MIA Consulting Services and the owner, Deirdre Diamante, provide support and consultancy to businesses wanting to increase their business opportunities with the Victorian government. Deirdre explained that she didn't have the confidence to know how to build a highly successful business and didn't understand the structure required.
Powercom Electrical
Powercom Electrical has enjoyed phenomenal growth since joining Business Benchmark Group just over 2 years ago. Their monthly revenue has increased threefold, and their business has grown from being run from over the kitchen table, to having a factory with a team of 11 people in that short time. Key to their growth was focusing on clarifying exactly who their ideal target market was, and ensuring they focused on serving ‘A grade’ clients.
Five Star Locksmiths
Glenn, owner of Five Star Locksmiths, was struggling working 18 hours days. Once he joined the program he found direction, motivation and confidence and was made accountable for his own KPIs. He had a greater understanding of the importance of numbers. Glenn quickly realised he had to stop thinking like a locksmith and start thinking like a businessman.
Polyshine Finishing
Having purchased the business in 2008, Chris Galea soon realised that the company was growing too fast and it was impossible for him to manage on his own, but he firmly believed in the product, saw the exporting potential and so he pushed through.
Pinnacle Health Club
Emma and Ben Stallworthy are the first to admit that in the beginning they were spreading themselves too thin. "A lack of confidence, an inability to allow our team members to step up and be a part of the business decision-making and growth was holding us back."
Traffic Diversions Group
Paul McRedmond, Stefan Shulz and Ross McDonald purchased Traffic Diversions Group in 2012 with a vision of become the “best traffic control company in Victoria”. Since then, they have achieved exceptional growth and have largely achieved this vision, but not without overcoming some significant issues in the business.
Harley & Sons Roofing
Tom knew there was an easier way to realise his business ambitions without needing to work 14 hour days and nothing to show in the bank for his efforts, but he didn't know what type of help he needed. 16 months on Tom will share his progress to date and how he now has more motivation than ever before to realise his goals.
