What actually happens during the two days?

This isn’t a passive “seminar”—it’s an interactive, hands-on workshop.

Day One: We dive into how to unlock hidden profit, simplify your business, identify your high-value activities and customers using the 80/20 framework.

Day Two: You’ll break into small groups and engage in work sessions. You’ll meet one-on-one with our experts to review your submitted data (via the ETGR Diagnostic) and lay out 3-5 tactical next steps tailored for your business.

What do I walk away with?

  • A clear set of 3-5 actionable next steps specific to your business constraints, sized and industry-relevant.
  • A personalized review of your ETGR Diagnostic data with expert insight.
  • A comprehensive workbook & strategy packet with the tools you need to implement the 80/20 approach immediately.
  • Networking and peer-group access with companies facing similar growth challenges.

Is this right for my business size/industry?

Size: If you are under ~$1M annual revenue, this may not be the right fit (yet).
Even if your business is between ~$1M and ~$100M in annual revenue (or equivalent scale) and you’re serious about driving profit growth, this workshop can help. We group companies by size so the discussions stay tactical and relevant.

Industry: We work across a broad range of sectors. Recent participants include manufacturing, distribution, service firms, SaaS, e-commerce, B2B professional services, and more. If you’re focused on growing profit and scaling your business around your best customers and activities, you’re a potential fit.
