"Al helped us learn how to get back to the basics we started this company with and develop staff members who are now on the same page with our goals. Imagine the possibility of a company that has its employees working for the same goals as the owners."

"As a result of the Planning Power!
consultation with Al Levi, I now
have a clear idea of everything
that needs to change and a timeframe in which to do it."

"Before Al, I had lost much of my
enthusiasm. But my success is
"very important" to him. Al Levi
has helped restore a sense of
purpose to what I do by helping
me run my business the right
way."

Before the Planning Power! visit with
Al, I had a lot of ideas without
much focus. Today I have a plan for
success in play.

"We selected a new flat rate
manual and Al has taught us selling
strategies for our new pricing
- and it's resulting in higher sales
per job and greater profits. Bad
repairs that hurt the company and
resulted in a greater call-back
ratio have been identified and
eliminated."

"When Al's Needs Assessment
Report arrived by email I was
so fired up that I stayed up way
past midnight talking with my
wife. When was the last time you
stayed up late to have an
exciting conversation with your
wife about work?"

"We have already seen some positive changes taking place since Al's Planning Power! visit. Our 'new way of thinking' is starting to show in the attitudes of our people. We are really excited and looking forward to working more with Al. Thanks so much!"

Al has enabled us to look at this business in a totally new way. We no longer blame our employees for our failures. We’ve learned that we have a responsibility to them and to us, to make this a more rewarding place to work. We finally have the power to take our company to the next level!

Our last Planning Power Session was very
intense. Al spent a lot of time interviewing
employees in order to get a “real” feel for how the
Company conducts business on a day-to-day basis
versus what he may have been told by either
myself or just one or two other people in the
organization.

Al’s visit was a real eye
opener.Now we have a
clear agenda of projects
and can stay focused on
the changes we need to
make. For example,we
plan to implement a field
supervisors program, and
we now know that we want and need to get out of the warehouse business.As a direct result
of Al’s visit,we are actually accomplishing goals and the company is growing!

Al will challenge you to be better: better with your people; better with your customers; and better with your family. The challenge is energizing and will give your people new-found enthusiasm and purpose.

And we're really looking forward to having Al back to write our Customized Operations Manual so I can build more staff who know the way I want things done. Its been great having Al around as a mentor.

Going through a needs assessment
with Al puts all of your problems out into the open. It’s sort of like going to confession
and you feel better after a very tough day of identifying portions of your business that
need some serious work.

Why do we still pay Al
Levi for ongoing consulting
three years after we
first started working
together?
Because I know how easy
it would be to fall back
into our old bad habits.

After numerous conversations with Al Levi, I decided that Al was someone who not only had been in my shoes
but had made big changes for his own company. Al Levi has the knowledge of being an employee for not only his
dad but his brothers as well and had operated a contracting business for more than 25 years.

Before Al came, everything seemed
like an emergency and we were
always in crisis mode. Now that
we've gone through the Planning
Power! program, we know what
projects to work on at the right
time.

My company is so much more under control
these days just since Al’s first visit here to
do Planning Power! We not only know what
to do, but we’re doing it!

Working with Al on
planning power and operating power has
really aligned our priorities and focused our
energies on the big projects that we need
to be working on, as well as ...

Right from the get-go, Al helped us
assess our priority projects that needed to
be worked on. We assembled the top five
of those projects, and after less than a year
of working with Al, changes are being made
that have helped us leap forward to become
a better run, better-managed company–and
on top of that, a profitable company.
