I Had An Epiphany

December 31, 2014 by Lisa D. Anderson

Last year, I had an epiphany:  “Teach others to fish”!

I honestly had no idea that following through on that epiphany would turn into an incredible opportunity to help small businesses grow and prosper.  I had no idea starting Anavo Transformation Solutions would help so many business leaders achieve their goals, create balance, enhance relationships and get unstuck and moving forward into greatness!

As I count down the hours remaining in 2014, I can’t help but to reflect on the accomplishments and lessons of this year.  It’s truly been an amazing year!  

Below are some of the highlights from this year.

Building Relationships
Thank you, Kimberly, for allowing me to guide you into making some life changing decisions about your Real Estate Business and your career.  After working together for eight weeks, we redefined your business strategy and established an effective approach to vetting your customer base and forming strategic partnerships that facilitate further growth through referrals.  Following your 10+ years in the business, you now have a velvet rope that allows you to attract the customers you are designed to serve.  Focusing on your ideal customer has reaped exponential benefits and financial rewards.

Building Infrastructure
Helping Patricia build a Board of Directors that will help her advance to the next level was an amazing journey.  In her seventh year with her nonprofit organization, Patricia has learned through our year-long Executive Coaching that “what got you here won’t get you there”.  In order to advance to the next level, you’ve got to do some things differently and that includes increasing the expertise you have around the table.  This year we implemented a Board of Directors screening process that allowed not only Patricia, but other members of her Board, to attract the right Board members to help take the organization to the next level.  Being intentional about the needs of the organization, forming clearly defined roles and responsibilities and vetting candidates not only allowed Patricia to put business back in the process, but is also allowed her the opportunity to create personal balance.

Building Exposure
As a tenured professional in the insurance business, Rhondalynn wanted to increase her exposure and take advantage of opportunities to elevate her to new levels.  Over the course of six weeks, we focused on Rhondalynn’s approach and positioning.  Helping Rhondalynn elevate her expertise and increase communication allowed her to lead projects with high visibility.  She identified ways to engage with senior leaders within her organization which has lead to promotion and recognition.  In six short weeks, we were able to implement simple steps to help Rhondalynn increase her exposure as well as opportunities within her organization.

Building Business
I appreciate Molly for seeking me out.  Molly invited me to participate as an industry expert to help small businesses in her local community grow and expand.  As a leader in a local civic organization, Molly needed experienced individuals to offer sage advice to small and emerging businesses in her local community.  I was given the opportunity to deliver two workshops on business planning and building working capital, two critical components of any small business.  I was required to provide one-on-one counseling to small business leaders to help them advance into new territories.  In just thirty days, I delivered two successful workshops and successfully counseled eight business leaders.  The results were astounding!

Building Numbers
One of my mottos is numbers tell a story and they never lie.  This is true when it comes to financial reporting.  I had the excellent opportunity to perform a financial assessment for Candace’s business.  As the owner of her five year old government contractor, she was considering her exit.  Performing a financial assessment on her company informed her of the risks and potential rewards buried within her organization.  The financial assessment allowed Candace the opportunity to prepare and plan her pathway and yield optimal results.  Candace now knows her story.

Building Vision
When I met Tawanda she was grossly involved in the day-to-day operations of her company.  After only one session with Tawanda, she learned just how crippling it is to her thriving company to remain in the weeds of her business.  After a one day on-site intensive, Tawanda was able to realign her organizational structure and optimize her time, allowing her to focus on and follow her organizational vision.

Working with an Executive Coach and Business Strategist has helps companies achieve exponential success.  It allows business leaders and professionals to retreat from their daily distractions and focus on important aspects of their business.  Growth happens where there is a separate set of objective eyes taking a look under the hood.

    If you are an entrepreneur and are looking to take your business to the next level, this Podcast is for you!

  • Interview of Thomas Ellis on Closing the Sale
    February 27, 2017 by Mdfitchic from United States

    This has become my favorite episode because it helped me see my approach to finding and meeting prospects was wrong which is why I have difficulty closing the sale. No more chasing the wrong prospects! I am going to narrow my focus to three industries and set an agenda for every meeting. I need to get this episode transcribed because it contains so much practical and valuable information.

  • Review for the podcast of Tamara Haskins
    February 21, 2017 by Achillek from United States

    Congratulations! I listened to Tamara's interview today with Lisa Anderson on her podcast over linkedIn. I found it very well presented with and easy to follow. It reminded me of our conversation we had in Tamara's office a few weeks ago. The material was well prepared and the delivery was excellent. The tone of her voice was very appropriate and the language was professional but accessible to the layman. Really Great interview! The moderator was also excellent in that the types of questions she asked of you were very important and tailored to her audience who are small business owners.

    Great work both of you!

    Regarding the podcast with Patricia Daniels, How Having a Business Coach Has Moved The Needle On My Business, I wanted to offer the following:

    Very strong interview...discussion between friends and business partners. Lisa, great job, as usual! Another purposeful conversation had for business owners. Pat! Way to stretch out. This was awesome on behalf of the Ryan Odelle Mance Memorial Scholarship Foundation. And to both of you, I really think this episode can be used for MANY other non-profits - or for for-profit businesses as well - who are starting or preparing for the next season of their business. There were many takeaways, but the one that shines bright for me is knowing and remembering your reason why. And I think organizations - whether it's to start their meetings or to begin and end their retreats - can use portions of this podcast to be inspired, remember why they do what they do, and/or to go into an exercise of discovering or reformatting their why. Additionally, I also envision this podcast being the start of strategy session. Good work and great service!

  • Success leaves clues!

    When I found Lisa Anderson's podcasts I started with one and never stopped listening. She provides high quality, challenging strategies that move you out of your comfort zone. No fluff, just "straight black coffee" in her words and Its awesome.
    I am inspired and moving forward with her model for business success. Listen to some of the podcasts and you'll see what I mean. Thank you Lisa for all that you do for small and growing businesses.
