OUR BEST IDEAS FOR MID-SIZE SERVICE FIRM LEADERS TO GO TO THEIR NEXT LEVEL
TEN STRATEGIES FOR MID-SIZED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE FIRMS TO BREAK THROUGH TO THEIR NEXT LEVEL
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR FUTURE BY UPGRADING YOUR LEADERSHIP OPERATING MODEL
If you are the leader of a mid-size professional service firm with 25-100 staff and you want to break through to your next level, this eBook is for you. The number one reason so many mid-sized service firms don’t break through to their next level is because of growth stall-outs. These are frustrating for leaders who struggle to understand why growth has stalled. It’s a real conundrum.
After analyzing the growth arc of more than 70 mid-sized service firms, it became quite clear to us that a company’s Leadership Operating Model (LOM) was the key to consistent growth. A Leadership Operating Model has to do with the practices you use to lead your company. Pushing past stall-outs is absolutely possible. But to do this, you’ll likely need to upgrade your LOM. This eBook diagnoses the root causes of growth stall-outs. It also presents in rich detail a superior LOM that facilitates reasonable and desirable growth, year after year, all while improving the quality of life of leaders.
TEN STRATEGIES FOR MID-SIZE SERVICE FIRMS TO ACQUIRE NEW IDEAL CLIENTS ON LINKEDIN

Across these ten strategies, Randy Shattuck, founder of The Shattuck Group, shares insights that will help you turn a network into a client-acquisition machine.
If you’ve been struggling to figure out exactly what you should be doing on LinkedIn and why you should bother, this ebook will give you clarity, direction and a set of simple steps you can begin to take right away.
TEN THINGS SERVICE WEBSITES MUST DO TO DRIVE REVENUE
THIS IS HOW YOU ACQUIRE ORGANIC NEW CLIENTS
The number one goal of small to medium sized professional service firms is the acquisition of new organic clients. By “organic” we mean: prospects have no prior knowledge of your firm, they have no inclination to say yes to you before they start their journey and they are a great fit your company.
Most service firm leaders believe that there are thousands of great prospects out there that they have not yet connected with. But they’re not sure what role their website plays in persuading prospects that they are the right service provider. This 52-page E-Book gives you deep insights into the ten things your service-based website must do to acquire new organic clients.
