GPS Reviews: Leading Us To Victory
By 
Situation
Client in the trucking/freight/warehouse logistics industry “started the journey with GPS,” to position the company for future growth.
Process
“At the time, I had reservations with the time commitment, other people in my office, and the project cost. My concern was that I was already drowning in my business, how would I ever have the time to take this on? I’m sure that these feelings are mutual with other clients, however, my feelings were put to bed during the consulting process.”
The GPS analyst and consultant “worked very diligently, the first couple days, analyzing the business and our practice. They proposed a project and a payment plan that was obtainable for me.”
In the weeks that have followed, “our consultant’s business plan and projections have been right on cue. His knowledge of business surpassed my expectations. He has gone far beyond the finish line to answer, research, and give me information that I’ve needed to grow my business. I am aware that the results of this project will not be achieved overnight, but I will say that the dream of arriving there is, now, obtainable through our newly founded plan.
We have a plan in whole. We now have an accounting program, cash flow, commission and sales plan, truck driver award program and an office process system. This is a project that our consultant put together in just a few weeks and it would have taken me over a year, with many bumps and bruises, to figure out.”
Result
The client concluded that his consultant not only had the technical ability, but also the social skills to inspire and gain buy-in for the project goals. “I promised myself, at the beginning, I would stay committed as long as those feelings ran parallel with those of my Project Manager/Consultant. He never wavered.
Not only was he a teacher, but with much respect, I have given him the nickname ‘Coach.’ Anybody can consult a company into a plan, but it takes a Coach to lead a team to victory.
He has accomplished this for my team.” Kelly, President
