My feeling is that what separates your initiatives from your competition is simply that you focus on the longer term results and the development of the basic/solid foundations as a basis for growth, as opposed to all of the ‘quick fix’ stuff that seems to fly around elsewhere. … You are one of few in that field that really delivers on your promises. Without question you have truly helped make the difference here … I’m quite impressed with what your efforts have brought us …

I am retiring April 1st after 35 years with Westinghouse…I just wanted you to know that I thought your course was the best I attended throughout my career.

I am writing to let you know how much I appreciated the assessment you did for me this year. You and the rest of the team did an exceptional job with the entire process. Your approach, methodology, and interview skills provided me with the insight I needed to evaluate the team and make critical business decisions to improve in many areas. Additionally, your observations were correct and have assisted greatly in addressing some of the challenges brought about by merging the two companies’ cultures into a growth oriented/ revenue generating team. Your people business insights and recommendations were especially astute.

We built unregulated product sales from zero to $16 million in three years, achieving net profitability in the third year. During that time we put our folks through MBDⁱ, the entry-level workshop, and MBDⁱ, the application level. There is no doubt MBDⁱ training helped us immensely. During the training, gross margin productivity was, at a minimum, doubled each year. Revenues were also doubled.

When Larson Design Group made the decision to fully embrace the seller/doer model, we knew we needed a solid training program to guide our people in this direction. Using MBDⁱ Corporate training programs and online reinforcement, Larson Design Group was able to build a culture where the seller/doer understands the sales process, understands our clients and delivers improved customer service. Since the initial training program, Larson Design Group’s sales have increased 25% over a 12 month period.

If you only have time or the funds for one course, this is the course you should take. It is the BD 101 of the marketing world.

I have run and participated in a number of executive education programs and this one was excellent. It is geared toward the adult learner and the hands-on activities are an excellent way to apply what has been instructed.

The MBDⁱ training workshop I attended brought together everything it took me one painful decade to learn and laid it all out clearly and efficiently. This workshop is the vulcan mind meld of BD fundamentals and I highly recommend it for everyone from tenderfeet to well-seasoned professionals.

In the increasingly competitive landscape we foresee, mastery of the art of business development is essential in achieving growth. The training we received from MBDⁱ has been instrumental in shaping our business developers into a high-performing team to make that growth possible.

Our revenue doubled with MBDⁱ’s guidance over a four year period. We further expect a 10% increase this year and in 2016 due to their realignment and professional development of our BD organization.
