Small Steps to Big Results (SS2BR) is the next generation of learning where virtually any type of educational or training program can see improved results for the end user. Our method uses simple five to ten minute lessons (small bites) with a patent pending accountability process that works. Our Mission We are building a library of educational and training programs that can be delivered via email. Each email is a small step towards completion of a program. Within each email is our virtual coach, offering you options to continue taking single steps towards your goal of completion. Taking a small step forward as part of each email lesson helps you achieve your goal of program completion. This is our mission: "Take Small Steps to Big Results." One Bite at a Time Have you ever heard the adage "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time”. Small Steps to Big Results (SS2BR) is a web based tool that helps solve the educational and training problem by delivering learning material through emails or the web in small five to ten minute time increments with a personal accountability tool, our virtual coach, that helps you hold yourself accountable to completion. If, for any reason, you fall behind in the series of lessons our virtual coach can coax you back on track. Studies have shown that many people are willing to start an educational or training program, but fully 87% experience issues with completion. To help bridge this gap, our virtual coach can gently guide you towards staying with the program and finishing. Our model allows for existing content owners to use our wizard template and to parse their content into small lessons (usually requiring no more than five to ten minutes of the subscriber's time). However, we also provide program owners an accountability methodology that allows them to customize responses to non-compliance from the subscriber.

Wendy honed her gift of vision with 13 years of experience in sales and coaching for the Neill Corporation, the largest Aveda distributor in the world. Supporting the dreams of salon and spa owners in and around Atlanta was her introduction to the power of coaching. Wendy continued her growth process, becoming a Certified Professional Co-active Coach in 2001 through The Coaches Training Institute. At this time, Wendy realized that her passion was fueled by her role as a catalyst in the personal and professional development of people. Wendy established her own business, PassionFruit™ Creative Business Grower, in 2003. Her coaching sessions are offered by phone or in her Decatur office, with all of the exuberance and passion that you would expect from a woman living her dreams by helping others learn to live theirs. She provides training for entrepreneurs, offers many different tools and exercises to evaluate leadership attitudes and skills, and shares a variety of approaches to awaken the leader within. She implements innovative and fun approaches to teambuilding with her small business clients. One of her juiciest offerings is guidance in learning how to create a Strategic Attraction Plan. This plan is THE tool that attracts perfect customers and/or employees to small business owners. Wendy, always on the cutting edge, was among the first group to be certified as Strategic Attraction Coaches in April 2006. “Being with Wendy is the catalyst to your own personal 'Aha!'. Your passion becomes her passion and you begin to see clearly where you’re going and how you’re going to get there. And the beauty is that you know it’s going to be fun, authentic, and truly your perfect vision.” Michelle Gregg, Counseling Astrologer Also, if you know of a Business Coach that we should know about, please email BevAnn Bonds at Info @ B- Support Solutions.com.

Lee Kantor is also the host of the popular Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy Show and several other Atlanta-based radio shows. Today we spoke with Paula Reik of GoldCore Business Concepts . GoldCore Business Concepts specializes in helping small to medium size businesses improve their bottom line performance through employee and management development. The goal is to help companies improve their overall performance and revenue through increased productivity, reduced turnover, improved employee and customer satisfaction, and the development of superior managers and leaders. Paula began her business career at East River Savings Bank in New York City. In her 20+ years of corporate experience since then she has worked for such major international corporations as Bendix International and Eastman Kodak.
As an International Marketing Manager for Bendix she gained manufacturing and international exposure, having worked closely with a domestic manufacturing division and with the international field sales organization. At Eastman Kodak – Business Imaging, Paula had the responsibility of working with a wide range of organizations including Blue Cross-Blue Shield, Delta Airlines, Bank of New York, Russell Sportswear, VHA of Georgia Hospitals, Primerica, and with many other large and smaller sized corporations and government agencies. Most recently Paula brought her experience and expertise to The Whole Life Health Center, a small family owned business as the Marketing Director and Office Manager. Paula’s mission is best stated by her - “My mission is to help improve business performance through employee and management development. I have chosen to work with the small to medium size business community because I know that these businesses face the same personnel challenges that large corporations deal with but don’t always have access to the same level of training remedies. Management skills are just as important for a small to medium size business owner or manager as they are to any manager within a large corporation. Personnel issues are sometimes even more critical to deal with in a smaller business because each individual has a larger impact on the overall performance of the organization.” Also, if you know of a Business Coach that we should know about, please email BevAnn Bonds at Info @ B- Support Solutions.com.

Today we spoke with Mitzi Crall, Ph.D. Mitizi has an extensive and varied background including 20 years as a marketing executive, owned her own marketing and design firm , owned an engraving business and grew it to over $100,000 annual revenue, and has set records in sales and marketing, some that have yet to be beat. Her philosophy is - "But Life is More Fun Than All That" Intrigued with the powers of the mind, the mind/body connection, and her own intuitive abilities, Mitzi’s true passion is finding the outer limits of human potentiality. She has studied Neuro-Linguistic Programming® (NLP) directly with founder Richard Bandler, and has trained in a number of diversified disciplines that are revolutionary in human performance and communication. Mitzi is also a student and practitioner of Controlled Remote Viewing (CRV) with Lyn Buchanan, former trainer for the Government’s psychic spy program commonly referred to as “Star Gate.” It Ain’t all Talk and Theory As one client stated, “You’re not sitting here telling us to move out there, you are out there blazing a trail and showing us the way.” Mitzi is the author of the highly-acclaimed book 100 Smartest Marketing Ideas Ever, published by Glenbridge Publishing, as well as countless articles; has been the keynote speaker for such prestigious organizations as The American Marketing Association and American Advertising Federation; has led business training seminars throughout the country; has been interviewed on numerous radio stations; and been quoted in such renowned publications as Millionaire’s Blueprint, and Reuter’s Business, Europe. It’s Only Worth the Results You Get Flashes of intuition, bending tableware with your mind, in truth, it’s little more than unusual fun and games — that is, until we learn how to capture that power to truly transform our lives. In the arena of personal and professional development, the same worn-out motivational solutions have received face lifts, new names, been hashed, rehashed, and beat to death. The results they offer are, at best, fleeting. Face it, if it was working, we wouldn’t still be looking. The promising news is there is uncharted territory out there and it is offering unprecedented possibilities. When you are ready for real change, at the deepest levels, Mitzi offers exceptional, and exceptionally effective, solutions for companies and the people who drive them.

John’s desire to help business owners is in his blood. He has always been surrounded by entrepreneurs.
