Our experiences through uncertainty in life and business came from our other company operating in mining/industrial supplies. We faced the global financial crises from 2008-2010, followed by the AUD collapse and mining bust in 2013, which almost decimated our company. We also faced serious competition from more prominent players during these crises and severe cash flow issues.
The crises put us into financial trouble where we had to fight back with different pivoting strategies to win in a cut-throat wholesale industry.
In 2018, again, we suffered greatly in business. The mining bust changed the playing field in our industry. Many of our competitors could not survive the bust. International corporations took this opportunity to gobble them up. Suddenly we were competing with global companies. They immediately grabbed market share by aggressively undercutting and killing many smaller companies. Our profit margin dropped significantly, causing a significant financial problem. We were barely surviving.
We have gone through the thick and thin of owning and operating a business while trying to grow our young family at the same time. We understand that everyone is going through troubling and confusing times or will be at some point.
The following bible verses have strengthened us throughout our difficult journey:
He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. (Psalm 23:3b-4)
I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore I hate every wrong path. Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. (Psalm 119:104-105)
Whatever it is, facing uncertain times, anyone needs more resources to be a cut above the rest. Our work will influence the way you think and make decisions, and we will, through the coaching process, enable you to make faster, better, more accurate decisions.
Sometimes those are difficult choices. But because you know how you make the decision, you know why you make it, so you will be naturally more committed to it and able to carry it through. The whole decision-making process becomes faster and more robust.
Your abilities to respond, adapt to changing economic conditions and foresee what the future might hold with limited information. All of this improved by having different ways of thinking about the data.
“We help you to get the drive and confidence to overcome critical times in life, career, or business.”
Let’s work together.
You will bring tough challenges, and we will work out the solutions together. Our work will help you overcome obstacles and difficulties, moving you toward your ultimate goal.
