In today’s market, time is valued much more than money. Entrepreneurship should be giving you more flexibility and better work/life balance, but it’s not! What’s gone wrong?

You know what you should be doing but you just can’t make it happen. Guy Arnold will help you solve all these problems and give you three principles that you can apply to any situation, in any business large or small, in order to get a grip of your time, and get the important things done, no matter how busy you are!

And you will go away with powerful tools that you can use time and again. Three hours, three principles, and three tools that make all the difference and will transform your day.
About Your Trainer
Guy Arnold
Guy is an unconventional business adviser who helps owners of small businesses build sales and profits through reputation, loyalty and referrals … above all else.
Guy has run his own businesses and worked with fast growing start-ups and large businesses, always focusing on business building through customer reputation and loyalty, and he has written 3 books on this subject.
He has had big successes in business and also some reasonably sized failures: the key is to learn from successes and avoid what causes failures!
He can help you by examining your approach to customers and helping you develop simple systems, and step by step changes to get ever better results by getting customers to want to buy more from you, buy again and again and tell all their friends about you.
He uses a simple but powerful methodology called ‘Slow Selling’, based on 4 key principles of common sense.
But don’t take our word for it: the proof of any pudding is in the eating: Here’s some feedback from recent work through the BIPC
‘Exceptional teaching and really valuable content.’
‘Inspirational and simple.’
‘I left feeling relieved and inspired, clear on what I needed to do.’
If you just want to be ‘a bit better’, then Guy’s not the person for you, but if you want to really nail it, Guy would be pleased to talk with you.
