Gloria MacDonald, Founder, Perfect Partners
Gloria MacDonald is the founder of Perfect Partners a matchmaking dating service based in Toronto, Canada. Her company specializes in Executive Dating ("over 40"). She takes a proactive and personalized approach to finding the Perfect Partner for all her clients. After being in business for five years, obtaining some success and hitting a wall on her growth, Gloria enrolled in my February 2008 Business Mentoring - Business Mastery course. She said she needed clarity and a new paradigm to get unstuck and back into the game.
After completing Business Mastery, Gloria immediately took the skills and tools she learned and started implementing them. Since Business Mastery requires people to be accountable, the vast majority of our students put rubber on the road immediately and the results are dramatic!
One very significant idea Gloria learned and put into practice was "Doing ordinary things very consistently produces extraordinary results". One of Gloria's favorite Mentoring Questions I taught her is: "Will this behavior move me towards my goal, or am I settling?" She started planning her days in advance, setting aside time every day to work towards her outcomes. As a result she has either met or exceeded all the goals she set for herself.
Gloria has increased her sales 65% for the first six months of 2008 over 2007. In addition, she reduced her expenses on a monthly basis and paid off $50,000 in lines of credit since taking my Business Mastery course. She has had the best two revenue months ever in May and July of this year. Gloria told me, "It's truly amazing what you can do when you get clarity and learn the REAL skills necessary to ignite your business and your life!"
Like most people who attend my Business Mastery program, Gloria left with goals that were outside her work/business. She wanted to raise $10,000 for Habitat for Humanity by April 1, 2008. She raised almost $15,000 by March 27, 2008. She was also recently nominated for a Women's Entrepreneur of the Year Award. She set a goal to exercise at least three times a week and she now is consistently going to yoga three to five times a week.
Gloria said, "By simply and consistently applying the lessons I learned from Keith to all areas of my life, what used to seem impossible is actually very achievable and it happens in a relatively short period of time!"
Some of her new goals include continuing her revenue growth to bring in 60% more in 2008 than 2007, decreasing her golf handicap to a single digit and having her own TV show on dating and relationships. She is no longer looking for the 'silver bullet' or one big breakthrough. She knows that it is all about consistency, skills and tools and taking one step at a time.
"This course (Business Mastery) has by far been the best money I've spent on myself and my business. I can't recommend it highly enough to other entrepreneurs," Gloria emphasized.
Gloria is producing great results by constantly asking the question, "What can I do TODAY to improve my situation?" I am so proud of Gloria and all the other students I have been privileged to Mentor over the last 7 years. Congrats!
Best,
Keith + Sandi
