Don’t take my word for it, thousands of service and small business owners can’t be wrong…
“Our business has roughly 20 employees, and working with Renee is like having a trusted business partner. She shares our values of high standards for our customers, and helps us generate unique ideas to solve tough business problems. Since beginning our work nine months ago our sales are up 35% over last year! I find her products to be innovative solutions to common industry problems, and yet be easily customizable to meet our unique situations. We have purchased the Employee Handbook, the Training Program, the Method & Procedure, the Winner’s Circle and custom consulting and would recommend any one of them.”
Jim Fain, You’ve Got it Maid of Oklahoma
“If you want to create a customer-service savvy company, the key to success in today’s competitive market can be found in Renee’s valuable information.!”
Nancy J. Wagner, Cut to the Chase Marketing of Bothell, WA
“Renee generates solutions to our toughest management questions! Great ideas, practical solutions, and a problem solver is how I would describe Renee and her products and services. We have used several of Renee’s products and services including the Productivity and Estimating tools, the Winner’s Circle, Sales Scripts, and business consulting. Our sales and profitability have increased, and we now know what kind of profit we are making on every job. “
Kathy Gage, Marvelous Maids, St. Lois MO
(After installation of a custom system that manages CRM, HR, Scheduling and Health documents) "My office staff now spends more time doing things that will increase business, rather than all their time being taken on just keeping up."
Andrew Rauch, Sequoia In-Home Care of Seattle, WA
“Your stuff is always so timely, and keeps me focused on what I want from my business, and how to get there.”
Ed Wright, Spouses Cleaning Houses of Annapolis, MD
“Quick answers and recommendations are what I needed, and SharpChip delivered! I have the employee handbook, employee motivation kit, service agreement, price increase letter, as well as some custom writing and consulting, and they have all helped me maintain my very high standards with my business, as well as improve my bottom line. Great response time… A thorough understanding of my challenges… I can’t wait to see what they come up with next.”
Sabine Straight, Sabine’s Lifestyle & vacation rental owner, Poulsbo WA
"Just a quick note to let you know I regularly read Service Business Minute and find them VERY informative! Thanks for this great service"
Debbie Sardone, Cleaning for a Reason Founder
“I have many of Renee’s products including the Employee Handbook and the Hiring and Firing book. She does an outstanding job of detailing the topics in a plain-spoken way that is easy to understand. They are always incredibly thorough, well thought out, informative, to the point, and relate to many different types of businesses. I recommend SharpChip regularly to business owners who want to grow their businesses, and could use some help from someone who has done it before.”
Teresa Schulz, Scoop’s Pet Services
“I wish that I had found out about Renee’s information two years ago, and I could have saved myself a ton of wasted time and money.”
Eddie Lisboa, Superb Cleaning of Orlando, FL
“I read as much as I could before I started my own consulting business, but some of the advice I received from Renee I couldn’t find in a book. It’s comforting to learn from someone who has been down the path already.”
Jim Schnitzius, Schnitzius Consulting
“Delegating our newsletter creations to SharpChip has been a real time saver. The month flies by before I can even think about getting a newsletter out, and with SharpChip putting it together with some of the ideas I want incorporated into it, it has really saved me a lot of time and I can actually get them out to the clients. Otherwise, it would probably only happen once every 3-4 months due to my hectic schedule. Thanks SharpChip!!”
Lannette Koll, Life Maid Easy of Phoenix, AZ
“Taking Renee’s advice saved me time, and money – meaning I was able to start making money quickly, and fill up my schedule within the first few weeks of getting my business license. The information in the kit was easy to understand, especially for someone who knew nothing about business before I started my own”
K. Knutsen, Help at Home Services
“Renee was invaluable to us when changing from contractors to employees. I don't think we could have done it without her expertise in preparing the employee handbook and consulting with us every step of the way. We have used the Employee Handbook, Employee Motivation Kit, the Method & Procedure, the Winner’s Circle and custom consulting.”
Boni & Jean, Clean-A-Maniacs of Portland, OR
“Renee’s stuff is awesome! Business is booming, and I am thankful that I finally conquered the employee retention challenge. Her consulting advice is top notch. The Winner’s Circle program is a big success. And, the Employee Motivation Kit brought new life to our staff meetings and trainings. Working with Renee has inspired us to continue to implement creative solutions in our business every day. “
Cathy Sandberg, Maids of Honor of Phoenix, AZ
“My 7 Day Startup Kit was like having an expert walk me through what to do and what not to do, guiding me step by step on each part of opening a business. I’ve heard of people spending thousands of dollars to start up businesses – I just laugh when I think of how this kit paid for itself within a few hours!”
S. Tempo, Mother’s Helper Organizing
“SharpChip created our press releases for us when our company opened a new store and also won awards at the 2005 ARCP Convention. I felt funny doing it on my own, like I was bragging on myself, so having SharpChip gather the info and put it together really helped. It was very professional and sounded like it was written by a Pro, which of course it was!!”
Lannette Koll, Life Maid Easy of Phoenix, AZ
“Although we’ve used business coaches before, we learned more tangible strategies that we could put into action immediately in just the first 30 minutes of consulting with Renee O’Brien then we did with previous coaches combined. We utilize on-going custom consulting, new manager coaching, the training program, the estimating tools, the employee motivation kit, customized sales script, and many other custom projects, and we have found the products and services to be consistently responsive, easy to follow, practical and action oriented. In just the last two months our business has grown by 20% and we were able to take advantage of the growth opportunity because of the leadership time Renee helped us free up. In addition, we were able to reduce our management overhead from two full time managers to one, increasing our profit potential substantially. With my commercial and residential business I expect sales to break the $1 million mark this year, and we have found the help that we have received from SharpChip invaluable.”
