Make 2013 your best business year yet! Purchase a $1000 Small Business Advisory Package with Kevin W. McCarthy and get 50% more one-on-one time by phone, email, or in person. (Use coupon code: 50%More) That's 6 hours instead of 4 hours of insights, ideas, and advice to grow you and your business. You set the agenda and time frame. Break up your package into hour long segments, one long stretch, or something in between. Get Kevin to review a business plan, presentation, or help you write your on-purpose statements of purpose, vision, mission, and values. 

This is a double bonus value worth $1,130 in savings compared to Kevin's normal hourly rate of $350. It must be purchased before Christmas and used in full by March 2013. Your investment is guaranteed. If after the first hour you're not satisfied, we'll end it there and give you your money back. Limited to only 5 clients on a first come, first served basis. Act now!

Entrepreneurs start businesses, but they tend not to grow them. There's a variety of reasons but mostly it is their mindset and aloneness. Reach out for help!

You want to mature out of your start-up stage as soon as possible and move into a growth stage. There aren't but about 10,000 ways to get tripped up. You don't have sufficient knowledge and experience to go it so alone, yet chances are that you are too isolated for your or your business's benefit. 

OK, so here we are in mid-December. The Christmas season is upon us, but if you're a small business owner the chances are you're reflecting on 2012 and thinking about 2013.

What will you do differently in 2013 from 2012 to improve your business performance? What will work and what won't work? Do you feel like your wheels are turning but you risk spinning versus gaining traction for the New Year? Are you feeling "tripped up" or stuck?

As a business advisor over the decades, my clients are primarily CEOs and Presidents of mid-sized companies, say businesses with $5 million in sales or larger. At one time, I used to do work with the CEOs and Founders of some Fortune 1000 companies. In time, however, I found that the mid-market and small businesses were more to my liking. Give me companies with revenues less than $100 million and I'm in my sweet spot.

That said, I have this deep love for the start-up person, the entrepreneur, the freelancer, the 100% commissioned sales person, the solo owner, or as some call them "The Little Guy." Perhaps the proper term in 2012 is "The Little Person." 

Truth is, if you're one of them, there's nothing little about you. You are the people who are standing tall, being bold, starting and building a business, pursuing a dream, aiming to change the world, seeking to provide for the family, serving your community, and deciding to kick Corporate America aside and give it go. You are the dreamers and the doers. 

Here at On-Purpose Partners, we've developed options for you solo owners to grow your business:

• ONPURPOSE@WORK is a six-week online program that rocks. Anyone in the world can participate if you have an internet connection and understand English.
• Are you a Christian small business owner living in the Orlando, FL area? (Or do you know someone who is?) Check out www.myceogroup.com. Groups are forming now north, south, and east of Orlando. 
• Small Business Advisory Package (see above for Christmas special): 4 hours of one-on-one advisory services for the small business owner. You'll be blown away by what you learn and how you can improve your life and business.
• The On-Purpose Business Person: See insert below for the Kindle edition. A print version in paperback will be forthcoming soon.

Make your best business decision for 2013 in 2012.  You'll be glad you went into with a plan, even a simple plan and some people to help you can make all the difference.

Be On-Purpose!
