Scaling Profit Copilot

 

You deserve a profit coach who can help you get rich.

Helping rich people get richer does NOT excite me, but if your sales were less than $3 million over the past 12 months, I'd love to help you build a profitable business that makes you rich - with the time & money you need to do what you love.
 
It's not all about the money. We don't need to be billionaires, but...
 
7 Figures Will Change Your Life

I've been where you are ― sleepless nights wondering how I was going to make payroll. I was lucky. I bootstrapped my first startup to $5.5 million in less than 5 years. I've also owned and grown a few other local businesses, but enough about me. If you're curious, you can read more.

Let's build a bigger, better business together!

He gave me the holy grail of how to solve my problems by asking the "productive questions." I could have never had this much confidence and business acumen without talking to someone who has the knowledge and experiences as Eric.

What kind of businesses do I work with?

Locally owned & operated business owners who had sales of less than $3 million over the past 12 months. Most are sales and service oriented:

  • Retailers
  • Restaurants
  • Contractors
  • Home Services
What's the difference between growing and scaling?

When growing your business, inputs (e.g. employees, locations, equipment) increase at the same rate as your results (e.g. sales, customers, profit). You grow by doing more. You scale by doing less.

 

When you focus on what matters most, your real revenue and profit increases faster than your expenses because your strategy is effective and your systems & processes are efficient.

  • Growth is linear
  • Scaling is exponential

Profit Margin Growth x Sales Growth =  Scaling Profit

What's the difference between coaching and consulting?

I am here primarily to guide you as a coach, but I tend to get more hands-on than a typical coach so I consider myself to be more of a "consultative coach".

 

Coaches

  • Guide you to solve problems yourself
  • Hold you accountable
  • Don’t implement anything themselves
  • Build longer-term relationships

Consultants

  • Solve specific problems for you
  • Are accountable to you
  • Create and implement things for you
  • Focus on shorter-term projects

Frequently Asked Questions ( FAQs )

 

Why should I hire you?

Most real estate coaches focus on sales training. Many of them are fantastic if that's what you need. I'm here to help you build a business. 

I bring a fresh perspective with experience in multiple industries to help you think outside the typical box (with a garage). 🤣

I also have real estate experience from a different perspective.  I was in the lead generation business during my 8 years with Homes.com. 

I won the President's Club travel award by focusing my sales team on the right prospects, restructuring territories and incentives, and developing better lead generating products. 

Do you only work with team leaders?

Yes. Brokers and agents who lead a team of other agents and support functions. 

While solo agents are "in business" too, my experience and focus is on helping you build a "real" business and lead a team of other people. 

What's included with unlimited* support?

Support is generally limited to topics we covered during our most recent meeting. You will normally get a response to your email the next weekday morning.

Some programs also include Huddles: 15 minute phone calls for a quick Q&A to keep the ball moving in the right direction.

You know you want to build a 7-figure business that works for you. One that gives you the time and money you need to do what you love... at work and in life. Right?

What are you waiting for? Let me help you get rich, so you can power your purpose!

If nothing changes, nothing changes. How will you feel next year, in 5 years, if nothing changes?

I'm curious. Are you?
