Grow Your Business Without The Grind!
Evan’s Business was Grinding Him Down!
Evan owns a second generation manufacturing company. When we met, he was experiencing his business as a grind. It was not delivering the fulfilment, or the lifestyle he dreamed it would.
He was working harder and longer hours than before, yet the business was not growing. Nothing was working, he felt stuck.
The problems he was experiencing are not unique to his industry. We see them time and again for growth focused businesses that have been around for some time.
Lost Sales Opportunities
Sales were slower and increasingly more difficult which affected cash flow and profitability. Evan’s brand was often undercut on proposals or substituted by lesser quality products.
A Disengaged Team
There was a feeling of low morale amongst his team. A handful of unmotivated team members were causing conflicts for the others. It was making work an uncomfortable place to be.
The energy of some of his most promising team members had waned. There were less new ideas tabled at team meetings. Productivity was down across the team. No one seemed to love Mondays anymore, including Evan.
Brand Embarrassment
Even with a product he knew was awesome, Evan felt a nagging sense of reluctance whenever he pulled out his business card. The same feeling arose when he shared the company web address.
The brand image, which had once served them well, no longer reflected the business, or him as the owner. The world had evolved but their brand identity had not evolved with it.
In reality they had been continuing to do many things the same way they had always been done. And those old ways were no longer working.
The Quest for Fulfilment
Evan felt like he was burning out. He was unhappy and craved fulfilment from his business. Something had to give.
When he and I spoke it was clear he had a purpose beyond purely making money. Yet he was failing to give the market any compelling reason to choose his brand.
He worried that if they started to tell a radically different message in their marketing it might push their current customers away. Frankly, he had no idea how to go about it, so he put trust in our ElectroMagnetic Brand method and the magic began.
He and his team committed to the journey. They actively participated in the workshops and the renewed brand foundation created was amazing. And when he saw just how much his team and market cared about their purposeful new story it blew his mind.
But it was far more than a purposeful new story.
Compound Customer Growth
Not only did his market express support for the new purpose, sales picked up rapidly. Their customers became repeat customers and shared the new brand story. They created an ever-increasing customer base that would not shut up about them! In the right kind of way.
A Realigned & Vibrant Team
Getting clear on who they are as a brand and what they stand for, enabled them to realign as a team. They became clear about what they would and would not accept and the misaligned people moved on.
They transformed into an engaged and highly motivated team that are a pleasure to be around. Their creative and discretionary energy has been unleashed. This new energy is palpable and is the source of awesome innovation. Evan was back to loving Mondays again!
Unshakable Confidence and Pride in their Brand
Their purposeful new brand story became the foundation for a timely brand refresh. Now they have an awesome new brand identity that truly represents their culture.
The new brand has helped to supercharge the team’s confidence and pride, and attract new business. There is zero hesitation for Evan in sharing any of their marketing material now.
