A Small Solar Installation Business Finds It Can Leverage People Better and Earn More!
Problem
As in many small companies, there are only important personnel and they must do both the high value and more mundane functions of the business. As they grew, they didn’t have enough ‘mundane’ tasks for a fulltime person, nor could they afford one.
Solution
Theodora Ghana Virtual Assistants took over multiple functions from various key people in the organization – newsletter production, CRM data entry, online permit applications, lead generation. This freed up time for multiple people at a cost far less than even a part-time U.S. based person.
Outcome
The company has been able to close and implement more projects per person driving revenue up, controlling expenses, leading to greater profits.
Helping a Videographer Achieve Her Breakthrough
Problem
Like a lot of small businesses, the videographer was at a critical point. They had the right service package and were getting the feedback their price / value offering was what the market wanted. But the partner in charge of sales also wore a number of other hats, and didn’t have the time to do the kind of expansive marketing necessary to get the sales up.
Solution
The videographer was introduced to TGVA. We recommended implementing a cold email program. We found a low-cost, effective CRM to implement the program. We took lists of names the videographer already had, and began the turnkey management of her cold email lead generation program.
Outcome
Within two months of the program’s start, the videographer had already closed two new clients. The program has been so successful, the videographer stopped two other marketing activities that had not produced similar results saving additional time and money.
Doing What the Wealth Manager Didn’t Want to Do Leads to Better Results
Problem
The wealth manager loved working with his clients. And he had a great following of business people who valued him. As a result he got all kinds of new business opportunities. One problem. He hated doing all the follow-up necessary to actually close these leads. Not only was this leaving opportunities on the table. His not following up on leads was annoying his referral contacts!
Solution
Hearing about TGVA, he worked with our onboarding team. We created an Executive Assistant function for him. His TGVA Assistant began cataloging all leads and creating a follow-up schedule. They met a number of times per week. She sent out emails and helped get things on his calendar. All he had to do is show up and do his professional thing.
Outcome
Though starting this program in the middle of the year, he ended up having record new business year and a lot of happy referral sources.
