Jerry Hagood, President of Kiemle & Hagood Company, Commercial Real Estate

"The GMT meets one day per month where financial information is gone over, goals are set and any plans of action for the coming month are initiated. This has been the most powerful change in the operation of our business in the 25 years we have been retailing home furnishings. The primary focus for the GMT is constant improvement."
Steve Kloss, owner of Kloss Furniture of St. Louis

"I decided to be out of the day-to-day management, to be off personal guarantees of indebtedness, and to sell my stock in the company. I wanted it done in two years. Two years to the day, I signed the papers that sold my ownership, accomplishing all my goals in a win-win resolution. I could not have done it without you."
Johan H. Jansen, Chairman of Jansen Combustion and Boiler Technologies

"This week, I heard a speech about 'Balcony People,' those in your life who encourage you onward and upward. Your face was in my 'balcony.' The ownership and management transition from my parents to me, is going smoothly. The management team is accomplishing the goals you helped us define. Your participation this past three years is what I attribute to that success."
Dale DuPree, President of Pella Windows

"It's official! You are unquestionably the business guru of our time! Since you started working with our company five years ago, the ideas, subsequent changes and energy you have brought has been paramount to our success."
John Hennessy, President of Nuprecon

"Everyone I have been speaking to is full of praise regarding the changes we have implemented this year. From the warehouse personnel, to the office support staff, to our mid-level managers, to everyone on the GMT, everyone is proud of the company they work for and the direction we are going in. I want to thank you for all the help you have provided. We couldn't have done it without you."
Jon Kushner, President of TACO Metals

"Thank you for helping us gain the ability to discover and correct problems in our business that would have been terminal otherwise. We were going under. You trained and guided us in becoming an effective functioning team. We have a growing management team system that is uniting the company and causing the company to succeed. Your love and caring were the prime ingredients that made the difference."
Winston J. Renoud, President of FSE

"I want to formally thank you for your extraordinary contributions to the growth of MCN, Inc. You have proven to be a gifted teacher and counselor who has brought us very specific and necessary skills, combined with a positive and compassionate attitude and infectious enthusiasm."
Brian L. Grant, M.D., President of MCN, Inc.

"I suppose the greatest testimony of success for a consultant is the success of his/her clients. While we aren't quite there yet, we know with great confidence that we are on the right track, thanks to your guidance."
G. Randall Wada, President, Alexander & Alexander

"We have considered it to be a real honor and sincere pleasure to have you as our consultant and even more so to know you as a person and friend. Few people stand out in the crowd with success spelled all over them. You truly are one of those people."
Bill Williams, Jr. Former President and CEO, now Chairman of Telect, Inc.

"I knew I had to either turn the management over to my children and others in the company, or sell. Without your insight, coaching, focus on my goals, and asking me tough questions these past two years, I would still be struggling with that predicament. Instead, thanks to you, I have sold my company for the price I wanted and all employees were retained."
Ron Carlston, President of Western Traction Company

"I was reluctant to bring you into our company because I saw consultants as a sign of our deficient management abilities. And that is hard to admit. But now, less than a year later, I can see that what you have introduced is exactly what was needed. It has definitely taken us out of our comfort zone, but without GoalMakers we would be struggling along and probably would lose many of our good people. Now, everyone is enthusiastic about the future."
Royal Robbins, President of Royal Robbins

"After so many business experiences, I appreciate even more the values and ethics you held dear. Thanks so much for showing me that it can be done."
Mary Ann Mazelin, former VP of CelluLand

"We've looked at other management consultants and marketing consultants and they all say that they can help us. But the thing that impressed us about GoalMakers is that you have a system and it works. Our sessions with you have been very valuable, and we made great progress in a short amount of time."
Len Yestal, Owner, MaxView Corporation

"I am impressed with your approach to the analysis of me, my company, our options, and your systems for implementing change. But I am even more impressed with you personally. You are dynamic and clearly extremely interested in our company. And your practical approach to developing exciting marketing and business strategies amazes me weekly."
Michael W. Scott, President of DuPree and Scott
