PLUSS Enterprising

A few years ago, Darryl Padgett our Labor and Management Consultant, interviewed Frank Finger with Finger's Radiator Hospital. Frank started out in business in 1955 as a one-man shop, taking over as owner when his father retired. What he accomplished over the next several years entailed taking this one-man shop to a $50 million a year company.

We learned much from Frank during that interview. The most exciting discovery was, "The greatest asset I have in being able to build my company to the level we accomplished, is its employees. You need good people; they must be hard working and dedicated. But as owner I must give them room - and authority to grow. By giving them ownership of the day-to-day issues I have a staff of people who are all pulling in the same direction and using their own minds. They work with you not just for you. If you believe that you have to do it all, or that you actually can do it all, you will never grow beyond a certain point."

PLUSS Enterprising is simply a process that empowers your organization to be more successful.

Understanding the Vision We start with Enterprise Discovery which is a series of asking questions designed to challenge self-limited perceptions to a more broader business context. PLUSS Enterprising works to facilitate mutual understanding between the needs of an employer and the needs of the employees.

Once the Enterprise Discovery phase is completed, another set of questions is given to learn how the mechanics of the business are performed. In no particular order, we touch upon all of the following components:

Automation - Part-Time Manager (PTM) software and its integrated module software are the backbone products for accomplishing the automation tasks. These tools greatly add to increased efficiencies and insights into running your business.

Inventory, bookkeeping, work orders, invoices and reports are a few of the software modules that help in managing aspects of the business. Additionally PLUSS Corporation offers educational courses for components that are designed to get your business up-and-running with a minimal investment. PLUSS Enterprising closely monitors your expertise at extracting the potential of these tools to help you realize your automation investment.

Finances - Are you still struggling to meet payroll each pay period? Are there innovative ideas that you would like to add, but lack the finances to invest in them? Would you like to offer a cleaner working environment but lack the capital? Is there another business location you would like to move to but don't know if it makes good business sense? Have you thought about developing an exit strategy for the day when you will retire? If you answered yes to any of these questions, PLUSS Enterprising can help you to discover the solutions.

Customers - Ideally, you have repeat customers coming back to you for your products and/or services. Repeat customers are much less costly to maintain rather than tapping into your marketing budget to find new customers. PLUSS Enterprising learns what your core competencies are and provides tools to help you capitalize on these high profit margin customers.

Innovation - Innovation is the art of listening to new opportunities as they arise and capitalizing on them. Recall all the different innovative ideas that you have implemented between first starting your business and the state it is in today. Chances are, you learned to innovate by noting that changes were needed and by listening to what your customers and employees were saying. Hopefully, these innovations have led to increased profitability. There are downsides to innovation too; some businesses have invested in the wrong things or didn't have enough resources to fully develop them. PLUSS Enterprising can plan with you how best to manage innovation as the ideas transform into reality.

Marketing - Marketing is a set of advertising strategies and tactics you use to draw customers to purchase products and/or services from your business. Business location, yellow pages, trade shows, publishing trade-related articles, web sites and stationary are a few of the advertising choices that you have. Since these are resources that you are financially investing in, it is imperative that you realize whether you are realizing a good return on your investment (ROI). PLUSS Enterprising can help you develop a balanced marketing plan with a good ROI.

Profitability - PLUSS Enterprising closely monitors this aspect of your business; it is the bottom line. If balanced attention is put on the other business categories, profitability has to grow. Profitability is one of the leading indicators and is an excellent feedback loop to assess business performance.

Partnerships - Partnerships are a great method to help your business to grow. All of the above business categories require human beings to implement them. As previously stated, your employees are the backbone to make your business grow and prosper. For this reason, we believe your employees are your primary partners while other partners like vendor relationships and ourselves are secondary partners. We would like to partner with you to increase your prosperity and would like to extend an invitation to contact us by calling our sales department.
