We are all facing uncertain times and we are all increasingly concerned that we are spending our money wisely. As business owners, we must be aware of what our customers are expecting for their money and how to add more value.

Adding more value doesn’t mean reducing your costs and diminishing your brand, but providing better information, delivering a more efficient service, or creating a more cost effective way to deliver your service.

CUBER Alastair Dryburgh Releases New Book

By Araceli On October 4, 2010 In Blog With No Comments Permanent Link to CUBER Alastair Dryburgh Releases New BookPermalink

Business_Remastered

Business Remastered is the book by leading consultant and business contrarian Alastair Dryburgh, he draws on his depth of experience in many different sectors to offer a step by step guide to discovering the great business hidden inside your existing business.

Many small businesses that have been going for more than five years are facing completley new challenges as the face loss of staff, clients, and resources. So should they throw in the towel? No, they should start observing their environment and learn how to change.  Alastair Dryburgh’s  book highlights pitfalls as well as giving tangible solutions.

There is a sense of uncomplicated common sense advice, which is breath of fresh air in the area of consultancy – even giving advice on how to problem solve.

The first step in solving a problem is to understand where the cause is located, which can be at different levels in an organsation. For example, if you are worried about increased pricing pressure, giving you sales force negotiating training isn’t going to help if you are trying to compete on price with the Chinese. This model is to help you be sure that you have located the real problem, and are not just dealing with a symptom. – Alastair Dryburgh.
