Small Business Camp

I have attended the BE conference for a number of years but there has never been a better speaker or a better presentation than the one put on by Andrew Morrison of the Small Business Camp. I got more useful information about utilizing technology to help market my company at the Microsoft Exhibit than I ever could have imagined from a relatively brief presentation. It has made every cent I’ve paid to attend 5 conferences worthwhile.

Please give him a bigger forum from which he can dispense his invaluable knowledge and expertise at future BE conferences

In my 8 years of business I have attended many seminars all over the Country. I thought I had seen and heard it all and then there was you. The 3 hours I invested with you tonight was more beneficial than all 8 years of seminars combined! You clarified things I already knew, forced me to think about things that I didn’t want to but most of all you broadened my thinking in directions that WILL truly broaden my company! Thank you so much and God Bless!

Mr. Morrison has excellent skills and he helped the BE participants in the Deal Makers Lounge to clarify what they really wanted to accomplish at the BE Conference. Mr. Morrison took the time to teach and then coach each person in the room on how to get business deals at the BE Conference. He taught us how to do an effective “elevator speech” then he coached us individually. His workshop went beyond simple networking to deal making strategies. At Mr. Morrison’s second session participants were given an opportunity to discuss their business deal successes and disappointments. Mr. Morrison’s coaching style helped many participants get over their fears and find new strategies to turn disappointments into action plans.

“Let me start by saying I don`t usually attend seminars with titles like “Boost Your Sales in 90 Days”, however after attending this seminar I felt like I was on supercharge.
I left with three very clear and distinct action items and gained several others upon leaving the seminar.”
– Sheronde Glover, Car-Buy-Her

“Attending Andrew Morrison’s Small Business Camp was the best investment I ever made for my startup small business. My company went from making almost no real revenue to generating over $43,000 dollars within the last 11 months alone directly from strategies I learned at the Small Business Camp.

I have used tactics from other business gurus with good success.

However Andrew’s insights give me more bang for my buck.

I invested $500 (a leap of faith for me at the time) and have already benefited 100 fold in terms of a return in investment.

I would encourage any small business person to attend the Small Business Camp, and not only listen but apply Andrew’s strategies. I am finding the more I apply his strategies — the more money I make. I wish I could of applied many of his strategies faster and earlier.” Heck, this brother even named my most profitable website “SearchEnginePlan.com”.

Andrew Morrison, President of Small Business Camp is more than a coach, he is a life strategist. I have benefited greatly from his coaching services and I am a happier and more confident person. It was Andrew’s encouragement and support that made my personal and professional advancement possible. My sales revenues have increased tremendously and I am optimistic about reaching income levels that I once thought were unattainable. Andrew’s coaching met and exceeded my expectations and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him.

I was in deed blessed by the “How to Tune-Up Your Business for Spring” telephone seminar. I received so many workable concepts to re-boot my business’ operating system. These are the ones I believe are most necessary for me to execute immediately: 1)understanding my biorhythm to resolve my challenge of procrastination 2)follow what other successful companies do to experience your own success. You don’t need to create a new wheel when there is one already well greased. 3)Identify the question I need to ask when I have that one opportunity to talk to an industry expert. Thank you so much Mr. Morrison for your candid, yet inspiring session with us. I sincerely appreciate your time and expertise.

Thank you for the teleseminar titled “How to Tune-Up Your Business for Spring.” It was wonderful! You covered topics most relevant for anyone serious about growing their business AND provided substance that when implemented guarantee results. I received several ideas during the one hour call that I am implementing immediately. For example, you helped me clarify my niche market and further define my practice with clarity. I appreciate your spirit, experience, and wisdom. Those who follow your practical advice will achieve more success and joy in their business and life.

Andrew, it was a delight to finally meet you. I had the opportunity to speak with you on one of your tele-conferences about three months ago. Well, flying all the way from Atlanta to LA for the Hollywood Black Film Festival I met the man who has literally changed my life. The night we spoke on the phone we talked about my perspective business and you asked some very thought provoking questions that I never even thought about. I had to ask myself was I really cut out for what I was about to put all my time and energy into. By the end of our conversation you told us to apply daily affirmations to our lives, just to get us on a confidante way of thinking. Well, I confess I did not follow your advice and that is why when I saw you LA – you really put that fire under my butt. You actually took the time to speak with me after your seminar was over. You created a whole new way of thinking for me in regards of success. Success is attainable and it starts with me. Andrew, I told you I did not know how to write a proposal – you literally got the paper out and helped me write a proposal right there in the hallway!!! Now, that was truly a touching moment for me because I know your time is money. I am now on my way to success. As soon as I got home I followed your advice on a very promising business idea that was right there in front of me, but you actually helped me see and plan it all out. I can’t wait to give you an update and invite YOU to be one of my guest speakers. I know it is so cliché but words cannot express my appreciation. You really do have a gift that I have not seen in anyone before. You have a way of seeing ideas already done and planned out from marketing, financed and up and running. Not only are you giving us business sense you are helping us see our self worth and using that to obtain and seek our goals. Andrew, you are simply amazing. Thank you.

“Thank you for tele conference secession today, this was my first experience with “teleconferencing” what a satisfaction if was to finally hear you in action. I had the opportunity to speak with you on the telephone a few days after returning from the “PowerNetworking Conference” in Cleveland, Ohio, I knew then after our conversation that you were an expert in your trade. Today after the section I immediately thanked God for allowing me this experience of being coached by you. Andrew you reaffirmed things that I have been reading and have learned for many years, the difference was the way you presented these idea and simplified them. One thing that impacted me during this conference call was when you told us we needed to get out of our minds and into the minds of our customers and clients. For years I have been stuck in that mode. Thank you Andrew for my break through. Thank you for affirming it is all right to give, plant seeds and to dream big and that it is all right to go after the cooperate account. You did not only present you gave from deep within you soul. Thank you for investing in me, my dreams and my company. I will be sure to spread the news about your skills and talents. Andrew you are wonderful gift to Small Business Owners. Keep giving.”

“Thank you so much for the opportunity to participate in the tele-class. It was an awesome experience. I just got home from bypass surgery this past Saturday, and I’m not supposed to be on my computer for at least a few more days. However, I had to sneak in my office to send you a “thank you” message. I am going to get started on my goals, answering the questions, and completing my visualization statement (and recording) right away. I definitely don’t have an excuse! I’m sure with your help, we are going to soar in 2005!”

“”The coaching sessions are incredible. I’ve expanded my website and pushed myself to sell. When I would normally do the activity for free, or give books away I am asking for the payment I deserve. I feel like a success. I kept working on my web site and on myself, even when I didn’t feel up to par. I am a success, because I have built my business from the ground up. Funny thing, my managers are looking at me like I can do more challenging jobs.”

I thank you for sharing your knowledge with myself and the other callers last night. The information I recieved was invaluable. I went to bed last night a different person. I ruminated over past transgressions and I realized that simplicity is the key. It is amazing how simple things are until you stop thinking complicated. Your genius is immeasurable. Thank you and God Bless

“I would like to take this time to say , that I truly enjoyed your tele-conference, that you provided on the 12-steps. These steps will ultimately provide a road map to my success. You are a tremendous inspiration. Please keep shining your light, so that others such as myself can see where we are going in this game called life !!!!!”
Thomas Searles

“The words you spoke last night were–simply put–powerful! After spending just 2 hours, with Andrew Morrision, I left there with a such wealth of information and concepts. Ideas so simple, yet profound, that I have already began to incorporate them into my everyday personal and business activities. The Wow factor was very much alive during your speech. Thank you for inviting me. I am looking forward to signing up for your Small Business Camp.”

Let me start by saying you are awesome… I have never been to a seminar that was too short, but gained extensive information! The questions that you encouraged and excited were so moving it encouraged me to send you my information page.

Thank you for your graciousness and generosity in sharing your time. This was GREAT!!! Just from your telephone call, I feel not only motivated but inspired to keep moving. This hour changed my life…literally. Thanks to Pam Perry of Detroit for referring me to you.

Yes, I was on the call and stayed the entire time. It was excellent. I have several businesses (Meeting & Event Planning, Tour Operator, Travel Clinic as well as serve in my other capacity as an international lecturer). They all make money but it has taken too long to make the big stuff. Needed you years ago! The suggestions for thinking of services as products and products as services is an excellent and eye opening approach. Additionally, I was wowed by the tips on marketing – Public Access Television (had never thought of it). I have done radio in the past having had my own show and some guest spots on local television but utilizing public access while I know about it just never crossed my mind. I have done some of your suggestions – publishing, sponsorships, etc. but needed to have some niche issues addressed more readily. Good Stuff. I want to come to the camp but time constraints may be an issue for me as I am scheduled to go out of the country near the time of your Philly workshop and cannot do January either. Will you do this again soon .. somewhere?

Andrew, your “Generating Predictable Income” seminar moved me to action. You shared so many compelling ideas (e.g., securing a retainer for services; listing a classified ad; partnering with others, etc.). However, the most striking takeaways for me were to FOCUS and deal with my EMOTIONS. A novel, simple, powerful, often over-looked and taken-for- granted concept, but the truth is that focusing on one thing at a time has given me permission to exhale, take in the lessons from my past, embrace the victories and triumphs, and receive with passion my divine purpose for which God created me. Today, taking baby steps, I have attracted opportunities, become more confident, and unleashed some creative business ideas. Thank you for being such a masterful catalyst and humble paradigm pioneer!

I learned a lot from the call and I guess the biggest take away for my company was the mindset of looking at our services as products and vice versa for packaging. This concept will serve very powerful and useful for my business which is the full-service medical billing company. You also mentioned underperforming assets, which I have some of as well and so at the end of the day we have to use what we have to get what want. Thank you so much for candidly sharing your knowledge, experience and wisdom!

You are truly a giving person in every sense of the word. I always learn a great deal from your wisdom, but last evening’s teleconference message came through loud and clear “Make people feel they can’t do without me and the services my company provides.” In listening to you I not only know it can happen, but it can make a steady monthly revenue to sustain my business and me. It’s all in the packaging! I am in the process of putting together a “You Just Can’t Say No to” package.

Hi Andrew, yes I was on the call and what a blessing it was. I learned a lot about “marketing”, advertising, business cards and the ebook. I am looking forward to getting more information, as it’s definitely motivational. I truly appreciate the time and effort you put into the seminar. Your positivism is compelling. What more can I say. I took notes, and I hope to get to meet you soon at one of the seminars in NYC.
Jemel, www.wealthlinks.com/jemel4success

The teleconference was great and informative. I gained some insight on different marketing tools that I had not considered such as developing the white pages and some strategies to use when building a team and valuable tips on partnering with big corporations to solve a client’s needs. I feel that a lot of information was covered in the conference call and it was cost and time effective for my fitness business where we are really busy during the first quarter of the year. I definitely feel that these tips and future events such as these are valuable to any business.

The information you provided was perfect timing. My January goal is to find a way to market 3 of my skills and package them on a new website. I’ve made money from each of them over the past few years and created a business from each. My biggest challenge is marketing “myself” since the products and services are directly linked to who I am. The phone seminar provided me with structure on how to use the techniques of marketing to various multi-media outlets to promote my businesses. Although I provide a good service and product the call confirmed that you can sell anything as long as you market yourself and the product/service correctly.

Yes I was on the call last night and I learned quite a bit. Your high energy, direct, and yet caring approach is what made the call enjoyable. You covered so many topics in that short period of time. It was amazing. I was inspired to be more creative and think in terms of how I can get things done when trying to acquire or retain customers. I look forward to your next call.
Janise Lee, MATAH Business Center, http://www.mymatah.net/janiselee

Last nights call was so motivating and informative…in fact I was taking my notes so that I can begin to APPLY these suggestions…I also ordered your book while I was on the call! I can’t wait for it to come. While you were saying it, I wrote out my income goal and highlighted it and taped it right in front of me at my desk so that I can focus on it and make it happen! I also read your two wonderful articles and if it’s okay with you, I would like to distribute them to my clients and email list…let me know if this is okay. I thoroughly enjoy listening to how professional, informative and creative you were. I have listened to many teleseminars, but NEVER one lead by an African American–it was so refreshing and I felt very proud of you– you are very inspiring to me…thank you.
