Mother and Daughter did not know that the Sons had invited me to come look at things.
My analysis was underway for about two hours when I had my first meeting with the sons – largely to ask them if they were aware that someone was stealing from the business?
While I was talking to the Sons about it – all hell broke loose.
It’s Mama!
She shows up and wants to know who I was and why there was a meeting going on without her involvement? She expressed her displeasure by shoving a shotgun in my face and screaming loudly that she’s gonna shoot someone.
At that point, the song in my head was more like Skynyrd’s “Gimme Three Steps”, because I wanted to get out without getting shot.
What’s the point of my story?
Many if not most businesses (including this one) have problems that could easily be fixed with some outside help.
Mama and her family choose to ignore the ideas we gave them. But you, if you sense that something in your marketing or business operations isn’t quite right, can make a different and better choice.
Just contact me here and let’s schedule a discovery day to help you get things sorted out.
