Testimonials- What our clients are saying about working with us.
We are the Profit Professionals , and Turn Around Specialists
“I used to work every day, including weekends. I would come home and do paperwork and payroll, then sleep and repeat. It was wearing me down, and my wife was really worried. I decided I had to make a change. That’s another reason why I hired Normand…I took ten days completely off the grid and came back to all the sites running on track with no issues. When you put in place the systems Norm provides, it gives you the confidence that the wheels won’t fall off the tracks.”
Melanie and Martin V
“I’m in control of my numbers. I’ve been using pricing for profit, quotes as an action plan, positioning yourself, and a strong belief in our systems, [which] has led to this moment. Just signed a contract for $750K with a 25% margin, and ALL of my contracts will be at this margin or more from now on.”
–Lance Y, Denver
“Before I started with Norm, I was always just chasing the dollar, taking anything that came in because my cash flow was poor. I had no systems in place, and I was just constantly chasing my tail. I had no clue what I was up to, but I thought I knew what I was up to. And then I had these big expectations of, ‘This is where I want to be.’ But I just couldn’t get there. Like, ‘What are all these guys around me doing that’s different from what I’m doing?’ I [knew I was a] good builder, but I didn’t know how to climb up. That’s why I hired Normand. And now I’m fully booked until next year with margins around 20-25%.”
-Mark F
“When I started, I didn’t know what a target gross margin was. I would price a job and have no clue what the margin was. I thought I was winning. I didn’t know how to run a profitable business. Norm helped me understand the numbers I needed to aim for.”
–Mick H, Toronto
“Working with Norm helped me achieve the things that I had hoped for. I can renovate my home, plan for holidays, and buy cars. I used to think they were just a dream, but having a profitable business allowed me to have them.”
–Dan Saunders
“Thanks to Marti and TPB, I have more confidence to charge more and focus on that 20%+ gross profit. One client told me that price is not a huge factor as we have come across as the most professional builders that they have approached, and they really want to use our service.”
–Scott P, Washington
“We have been in France about one week of our six-week holiday…the good thing is, while I have been away, my staff have signed up one job and are negotiating the floor covering on a second job.”
Dan T
“Before I met Norm, I had no clue about my numbers. I would apply a 10% markup on all my projects. Looking back at my numbers, I realize I was working backward, but I thought I was doing the right thing at the time. Now, my Gross profit is sitting at 25%.”
–Jordan O, Kansas City
“We are constantly quoting and pricing jobs correctly, maintaining a clear timeframe for the subcontractors and our guys on site. All this with that 15% net profit in mind. I wouldn’t be at this stage without the help from Normand.”
–Labron L, Chicago
“Norm helped me build my marketing funnel, and I’m fully booked for the next year. This week alone, I got four paid quotes and signed all four of them. Not having to worry about finding the next job allowed me to focus on more important tasks and grow the business.”
–Jason D, Halifax
“I never thought I would be drafting a buy-in opportunity for an investor with an immense business acumen. I was able to fly to California for a personal event, and when I came back, everything was running smoothly. It would’ve taken me more years to achieve all of these without Marti’s help.”
–Art L, Houston
“I’m using Norm’s checklist in all of my processes. We use the Quality Control Checklist, pre-walkthrough, and post-walkthrough. We saved so much time with these checklists. We usually took 2 months to wrap up a project, but with these checklists, it only took 2 weeks.”
–Barry N, British Columbia
“A year ago, we were swamped with work and juggling too many things. Normand helped us set a clear direction. Now, we have the clarity we need and are even more laser-focused on how to reach our goals. It gives us a lot of confidence.”
– Nancy B & Chad B, Montreal
“We never had a problem working 12-13 hours a day because [we] thought that was the norm. But after hiring Norm, we understood we didn’t have to do it, so we shifted from working more to working smart, always looking three to four steps ahead.”
–Joe D & Michelle S, Vancouver
“After joining Norm, the biggest change for me is the amount of time I’m making up now. I’m able to get behind the curtain and compress time in a way that I haven’t been able to do before, where I feel like I can make up for lost time and recover that.”
–Marc L, Seattle
“The mindset training with Marti is a game changer. Now, I view business as a tool to get where I want in life. The business is here to serve us, not for us to serve the business. So, our focus is to have a business that you run rather than the business running you.”
–Tomas Y & Andrew P, Baltimore
“Working on our marketing systems with Norm changed everything for our sales process. When we go into the first meeting with our clients, they feel like they already know us, and once we bring everything to the table, it’s a done deal.”
–Wiliam S, Montreal
“After working with Normand I had my longest holiday in the last 13 years! I went from being a control freak to delegating my tasks. There are systems in place for the office and on site, so I don’t have to worry when I’m away.”
–Rod L, Tennessee
“Before Norm, my website was like barren land. We never generated any leads through it. But after working on it for three months with Norm and his stratigies, now people are checking us out online and sending inquiries through our website.”
–Steve P, Nashville
“Before I working with Normand, I had a bad financial year. I was struggling to find new jobs. We didn’t have a solid marketing system in place. Marti helped build our website, and we got 11 leads in 10 days. Now we’re booked out for the next 9 months.”
–Barry W, New Jersey
“After 90 days of working on our sales process with Norm, we qualified 24 leads, and then the next month, we started charging for our quotes. It’s amazing knowing we get paid for pricing jobs even if they decide not to move forward.”
–Darren V, California
“Before I met Normand, I was taking what I could get. But now our marketing machine is generating lots of leads and it allowed me to be more selective in terms of meeting new clients. We’ve bumped up our average project value, and the margin is above 21%.”
–Sean U, Colorado
“We followed your marketing systems, and now we’re number one on Google. People get to our website. They sent us an inquiry. Straight away, they receive an automatic survey. They fill that out, qualifying themselves without us lifting a finger.”
–Dave M, South Carolina
“Before TPB, we were lucky to get 2 leads for a house in a year from referrals. Now, we have a referral system running, and we’re pulling in 8 solid leads a month. It’s [a] night and day difference.”
–Steven A, British Columbia
“We’ve gone from getting all of our work from word of mouth to generating our own leads. Normand helped us build our marketing machine, and it has been filling our pipeline with high-value projects. Knowing that we’re booked months in advance really helped relieve the weight off our shoulders.”
–Jamie K, Kansas
“One of the biggest things Norm helped me establish is our sales process. We’ve implemented a whole system, a step-by-step process from lead generation right through to contract signing. We’ve got a process in place that we know we have to follow every step and get that process done, so it becomes repeatable, it becomes consistent, and it becomes a huge conversion rate changer.
Andrea T, Ottawa
Our conversion rate before was sitting around 30%, we’re now higher up near 60%. Before we’ve even submitted a quote, the clients have already invested in us as a builder, as a building company, and we’ve won the job 60% of the time before we’ve even issued the quote to them.
Because of the sales process that we implemented, we were able to improve our conversion rate from 30% to 60% and we make most of those sales prior to even pricing the job. By implementing the sales process, we were able to double our conversion rate on our sales. So another good system and process that we put in place.”
–Sam O, Canada
“We charge $3,500 for quotes, and we implemented exactly what Norm has taught us to do. It’s been working like a charm. We charged seven clients for quotes and closed all of them; one was a $1.3M job.”
–Larry W, Arizona
“This week we solidified just over $200k of work, with another $200k-$250k to be confirmed in the next two weeks, and another ~$1.5m-$2m in the pipeline.
–Andrew J, Texas
“About to lock in $990k, $1.4m, and $880k projects, all at a minimum of 25% margins, with 3 more jobs being quoted in the pipeline—business is growing well!
–Stan H, Florida
“We have doubled in size from last year, and with Norm’s systems we created a great team. To top it off, I don’t work weekends and spend Wednesday working on my own home!
– Harry I, Ireland
Currently, I’m not working in the business anymore. I’m focused on property development and spec builds, stepping in only when there’s an emergency. I leave everything else to the foreman. They report to me, and I visit them three times a week. This arrangement is possible because we have systems in place like the A-Z of operations and the 287 Checklist. I just give the foreman the parameters, things to inspect, and the deadlines for each stage.
– Jamie M, New York
“Ever since we started working with Norm, we have been winning projects left and right even though we weren’t the cheapest. They said we were the most professional out of all the options, and they wanted us to build their new homes.”
–Paula B, Alberta
“Over the last three months, I’ve been putting a lot of focus on refining my sales process and it paid off! We quoted $45,000 more than other builders and the client still went with us. It gets easy to land profitable jobs with the systems Norm gave me.”
–Jordan G, Canada
Before we were at $40-$50 per hour. Now it’s $118.
We are now quoting and winning jobs 100% bigger than before (from $500k jobs to $1Million jobs)
Converting leads at 50%
Dan J, USA
WE now have a Major confidence boost now that we understand the numbers much better. Our
Last job on Buildertrend all his job metrics were green (labour, time, COS, etc.)
Edu A, Pennsylvania
On track to 2x revenue this year. We already earned 100% of 2025 revenue, year to date.
Secrets to success: moving to design-build (closing more deals) and providing maximum value to leads (speed to lead and add tons of value)
Kevin L, New Jersey
we are about to lock in $990k + $1.4 million + $880k projects all at a minimum of 25% margins, with three more jobs being quoted in the pipeline.
Business is growing well and slowly scaling up the team.
Travis J, Michigan
“After joining with Norm, I got my charging for quotes process sorted out and finally have the confidence to ask for payment for quotes! I’ve spent years doing quotes for jobs that I was unlikely to get, and of course, doing them for no return. Also lost many a night and weekend pulling them together. Those days are over!”
–A.J L , Toronto
“50% of my staff has been with me for over five years and I can keep them thanks to the mindset shift from builder to business owner Norm talks about. I’ve always given them incentives to keep moving forward within my company.”
–Lewis S, St Catherines
“One of the big things Normand taught me was having a big enough vision to fit my team’s vision inside of it, and that’s what we’re doing. Our guys have been more willing to take more responsibility and level up their skills to execute their new tasks.”
–Mike A Calgary
“Normand has been a game changer for me. When we came on with him, we were at a run rate of $1M-$1.3M a year. We’re now looking at busting through $2.9M.”
–Marc F, Texas
“Friday win! Hired two new qualified carpenters. Just won a $1.9m house. Workload is booked for 18 staff for 12 months. Holy! Thanks Norm.”
–Larry W, Toronto
“Win for the week/month was signing up a $284,000 extension on a Cost plus 24% basis! It’s nice to have a couple of Cost Plus jobs in the pipeline as this takes a lot of pressure off while we continue to implement more of the Normand’s strategies and get some systems up and running.”
–John G, Washington
“We just expanded our team. Hired an apprentice and Foreman so our team is now a total of 6. We’ve also got another builder who we’re looking to hire, too. Now Korey can get off the tools very soon and can focus on growing the business! We’re stoked!”
–Nat T, Arizona
“The biggest change with working with Norm is buying back my time. I can spend time with my kids, pick them up from school, and go on a vacation with the whole family. I’m able to check in with my operations guy and know everything is running smoothly.”
–Larry G, Alberta CA
“One of the biggest things I learned from TPB was to have a clear team structure and management. I’m not looking at paperwork or messaging clients back and forth. When there are problems, my team can fix them without getting me involved.”
–Jackson Y, Toronto CA
“My biggest mindset shift with TPB was letting go and stopping thinking I could do everything myself. Other people would do as good, if not a better job at many things than I did.”
–Dan E, North Bay CA
“I’ve been sticking to my default diary for 2 months now, and I no longer work on Sundays, but my output has been higher than before. Every time I wake up, I know which tasks I need to do; I don’t have to try to remember where I left things off.”
–Ian J, St. Johns CA
“The time management training I did with Marti and the coaches was a game-changer. Now I’m in control of my calendar, and my time management issues dropped significantly.”
–Brad B, Vancouver CA
We have 18 full-time employees, and having Norms team management systems has helped us keep them accountable. We’re clear on the goals they need to hit and ensure everything is in order.
– Josh G, Texas
The processes we have in place for our team are what we learned from Normand. We have daily logs and team incentives. Each team member has clearly defined roles and responsibilities, from the laborer to the foreman. They follow it, and they love it.
–Dave P, Buffalo
“Norms systems helped my team to step up. I decided to go on a 6-week vacation to Europe, but I was concerned things would go under. Turns out, my team just signed [two] new jobs. And when I got back, everything was handled perfectly.”
–Andrew D, Scotland
“When I first worked with Norm, I thought meetings were a waste of time. In my mind, I thought we could do something more productive than just sitting around. But then I implemented the process I learned from you guys, and the team has been loving it. It gives us a sense of direction of where we are heading.”
–Jack H, South Carolina
“Systems [are] one of the biggest things Norm helped us with. I used to have no systems, and running the business was like swimming in a pond of oil. But now everything is structured, every job has project management and is tracked properly.”
–Richard M, Germany
“I stopped trying to do everything on-site and let my foreman be in charge. Instead of taking over, I set targets for them and push them to hit them. Having the A - Z Of Operations and on-site checklists makes it ten times easier.”
–Donald F, Edmonton
“I went to California with my wife and kids on vacation. We went for a helicopter ride and jet skiing. We also hired two new project managers and our gross margin is still at 21%. Thanks to Norm, we have systems that help us buy back our time and focus on helping our guys improve.”
–Jeff A, New Jersey
Mark Mahony and Remi Garvey—Welding and fabrication
“Last year we started off with a profit forecast, but as soon as we got Normand involved, we decided to double our forecast. We’re already well over that forecast again by two-and-a-half times on turnover, and profits are even higher. Now we run a profitable business.”
Sydney B—HVAC interior Limited
“One direct mail letter added $42,000 to my bottom line, and working with Normand has given me quality time to work on my business and spend time with my family.”
Terry Green—Greens Pumping and Irrigation
“In four months, two simple strategies have increased our business more than 22 percent. We’re so busy, we’ve had to delay expanding the business while we catch up!”
Mike Gray— Land scaping Owner
“I went from working 70 hours per week in the business to just 24 hours, with the rest of the time spent working on the business.”
Christina Strand—In Balance Landscapes
“We tried our own direct mail and only got a 1 percent response. With Normand our response rate increased to 20 percent. It’s worth every dollar we’ve invested.”
Jas and Chris Rogers—Elevate Finishing
“After 11 months of working with Normand, we have increased our sales by 497 percent, and the team is working without our having to be there.”
Sean Auger—Canada Pipe Fitters
“I was skeptical at first, but I knew we needed major changes in our business. In 2 months, our extra profits were easily covering our investment, and our predictions for the next 10 months are amazing.”
Danny Gillian —Gillian Tax & Accounting
“As an accountant, my training enables me to help other businesspeople make more money. It is therefore refreshing when someone else can help me do the same. I have a policy of only referring my clients to people who are professional, good at what they do, and who have personally given me great service. Normand fits all three of these criteria, and I recommend Normand to my business clients who want to grow and develop their businesses further.”
Paul and Irene Pepin— Premier Kitchens and Bathrooms
“Normand our coach showed us several ways to help market our product. We went on to triple our client base and simultaneously tripled our profits in just seven months. It was unbelievable! Last year was our best Christmas ever. We were really able to spoil ourselves!”
T. Frank—Pride Kitchens
“In 6 months, I’ve gone from working more than 64 hours per week in my business to less than 20, and my conversion rate’s up from 15 percent to 67 percent. I’ve now got some life back!”
Gary and Linda —Galloway Timber Products
“We achieved our goal for the 12 months within a 6-month period with a 100 percent increase in turnover and a good increase in margins. We have already recommended and will continue to recommend this program to others.”
Roger, Ken, Jack, and Karen—Southern Lights Power and Distribution
“Our profit margin has increased from 7 percent to 23 percent in the last 8 months. Normand’s coaching focussed us on what are our most profitable markets.”
Ty Peters—Electrician
“After just three months of coaching, my sales team’s conversion rate has grown from an average of less than 11 percent to more than 24 percent and our profits have climbed by more than 33 percent.”
Thank you, Thank You, Thank You.....

By Implementing into my business Norm's strategies it forced me to focus more on the higher value tasks which were critical in order for me to grow my business. I just needed to change my mindset and soon after I started clearing a profit I never thought I would ever reach, and all in just under 10 months.

“Normand has not only given us a look under the hood of how our business works but has taught us some of the key tools we needed to make it more profitable. He’s also helped show us where to look to find out what metrics we need to track to keep our business headed in the right direction. We recommend Norm very highly!”

“Our business had more than doubled our revenue”
-
Have been receiving coaching from Normand Burke for a few months and we love working on 1 to 1 sessions that they host each month. Our business had more than doubled our revenue in our second month with Norm. We recommend having coaching for any business owner! The expense for coaching is paid out of the new revenue that you generate through applying their suggestions 🙂

Testimonial for Normand Burke; In the middle of a recession our sales increased by $350% in 11 months and we are learning to get our team to run the business when we are not here. Janet P.

What made you consider having Normand as your business coach?
-
it was by recommendation I was having a discussion how to manage a team when I'm not in the office much and Normand was mentioned.

Janet S, Precision Builders. INC.

Dear Normand Burke (Q Six Business Growth Coaching),I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for your guidance in getting my business back on track. Since starting our work together, I finally feel like I have regained control. Before we began, I was convinced that shutting down my business was my only option. However, after just a few sessions, you helped me pull my socks up, take charge, and rebuild with confidence.
-
Through hard work and your structured approach, you’ve shown me that problems can be solved and that success is attainable. I now see the business side of things in a much clearer light, and I truly appreciate the strategies and resources you provide to back up your coaching methods.
-
There are many key benefits to working with you. First and foremost, your kindness and ability to explain strategies in a way that makes sense have been invaluable. Whenever I struggled to grasp a concept, you took the time to simplify it before moving forward. Your accountability system has also been instrumental—you assign homework, follow up, and ensure that progress is being made. Most importantly, you understand tradespeople and the common pitfalls we face as business owners, which made working with you an easy decision.
-
Thank you, Normand, for the time and effort you’ve invested in me. I look forward to a long-term partnership as I work toward my goals—goals that now feel entirely within reach. Your coaching has reignited my passion for my business, and for that, I am truly grateful.

Sincerely,
Ryan H.

Hiring Normand as our professional advisor, and our personal turn-around story is that in 90 days flat...he has advised us and assisted us to turn around from LOSING $1.2m in the last 12 months into MAKING $250K since he’s been with us...
-Danielle and Tony A- Full Service Building Contractor.
The way I work has totally changed; the efficiency of both me and my team has increased. After just 3 months of working with Normand Burke two of the initiatives I have implemented are already starting to significantly pay off. I started doing a daily team meeting and my team and I created a scoreboard which tracks our daily, weekly and monthly productivity and efficiency. These two things combined have created an environment with a sense of competition, where my staff compete to be # 1 on the board each day. It has be so effective that in month three we produced 45% more work, if that wasn’t enough we accomplished those numbers with a 67% reduction in staff.
-Alex T - Mechanic Shop owner
Our Business Coach Norm Burke was introduced to us via a referral at a very crucial junction of our business . We were a three equal partner family business that was growing out of control. We were faced with a decision to sell ,change, or rot. Our coach acted as a third party facilitator to create a winning a solution for all parties. This could not be accomplished by the account or the lawyer . Not all Business Coaches are created equal. ( Our Coach Norm and his team ) are not your normal coaching team. They are your business dream team, bringing to you the disciplines and skills required to grow your business wisely in the 21st century. We grew by 30% besides tall the changes we were making. However, if you focus on the monthly retainer or your growth as a company, you're not focused on the long-term. This is about living your life to leave a legacy for your family , your your employees, and impact eternity.
-Lyndon R-CEO Construction Company
“The best thing I've gotten from business coaching is cash and business growth. The new Ad Coach Norm helped me with works! I've made 4 sales totalling $14,400.00 compared to NO sales off the old Ad I had all of last year . The sales results I'm getting are awesome! During 6 weeks, I landed 4 new sales with a 57% conversion rate up from 20%. Everyday I am thankful I got a great Business Coach
Tom B-Owner - IT Support Expert
Normand Burke became my business coach and mentor 2014, when I realised that I was working almost 7 days a week and still couldn’t see the end of the tunnel. Norm has shown me that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and how we could get to that light. Norms coaching has helped me get back to why I first went into business, and that was to work less, have flexible working hours and make more money. My business now runs by itself and has allowed me to start another business, which we are presently setting up as a Franchise. I can’t thank Norm enough for all the help and success that he has brought to my business.
– Robert J -Stainless Water Tanks Company
Norm’s ability in business has been a key to the success that my boys have realised in business. I never had a business coach and I would never have spent the money – now I realise it was to my detriment and to that of the people I worked with.
When asked what he observes about the way they conducts business after working with Norm, Stephen replied:
• We now make new, exciting and dynamic choices in business
• We think outside the box & make choices outside the box
• Norm guides them through logical choices
• Business choices are more innovative with Norm as part of the team
• Norm provides new and fresh eyes and ears to help make exciting choices
• Advertising and promotions that create excitement are developed with Norm
"Why continue doing the same things that may, or may not be working, when you can find how to make your business work for you."
– Stephen P- Auto Mechanic Shop
Norm is a great guy, we respect and value his opinion and his contribution to our company. He is very enthusiastic individual and we are privileged to be associated with him. well worth the investment.
-Joe F - Electrical Shop owner
“Awesome vision, training from the inside out. Developing a team of unique people to be the best they can be. Norm, thanks for helping is out and enabling my dreams to come true and inspire others to reach for their dreams”
– Jody V - General Contractor
There are 2 things that come to mind when I think of Normand and the impact he has had on our team; communication and client appreciation. Working with Normand over the past 1.5 years communication has improved, more than just improved we have some now where we had little to zero before. We have had more real meaningful staff and managers meetings in the past 12 months than we have had in the previous 12 years. We have been in business for over 30 Years and we wanted to find a way to say thank you to our clients. We initiated a Gift Card program for our top clients, we mailed out 446 gift cards ranging in value from $50 to $150. It was a very interesting program for us, so not only did we say Thank You, the program lead to an increase in sales. Forty percent of the Gift Cards have been redeemed, after just 90 days, it has brought in $49,500 in revenue, and we increased our average dollar sale on those transactions by 75%.
-Andrea K - High Quality Retail owner
“Quite simply the best training I have ever had… and I have attended a lot. Instructions, material, attention to detail, it was all top notch. I gained new insight into selling – but more importantly myself”
Karl R- C.E.O. Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration
“I was wrong! It took a leap of faith to let my Coach Norm show me that my business can run well without having me at the counter , but I'm glad for it. Now I'm spending new found time (15 hours per week extra) developing marketing and enhancing operational strategies that will grow my business.”
– Tod D - Roofing Company
“Thank you so much for an outstanding and life changing training. Team building was taken to a new and higher level for me; you knew exactly when we needed pushing, when we needed support and when we needed encouragement. My personal thanks for helping me breakthrough a couple of walls that I did not think I could go through.
– Jason B - Air Conditioning and Heating Company
Until I met Normand and Q Six Business Growth Coaching , I was working 60 to 75 hours a week, burned out and helpless to get out of the rut. Now six months later, I work approximately 45 hours a week with the help of my new staff. I delegate better, hire better, with more time for myself and my family. I have learned how to spend my time working on my business instead of in my business. Plus, I have increased my sales in the first half of 2017 by 34%. Q Six Business Growth Coaching was money well spent!
-Daniel R - Construction Contractor
I found the service of Q Six Business Growth Coaching and Norm to be very enlightening. He gave me the opportunity to detach myself from the day to day operations of my company and spend time planning and analysing formats and procedures. He also gave me the opportunity to safely air my concerns and insecurities about my business.
-William H - Commercial and Residential Management Group
I felt a business coach was essential during start-up, when everything was new and I was feeling “out on a limb.” I needed Q Six Business Growth Coaching for encouragement, building confidence, getting through the start-up questions, and setting goals and strategies. There are many resources out there, but I found that a personal coach like Norm, who focused on tracking progress in my specific business, was the most helpful.
-Andrea L - Retailer
"The most inspiring, entertaining, thought provoking conversations I’ve had for a long time… and I see lots! Thanks for the great ideas.
– Mike F – Residential and Commercial Paining Company
Normand Burke speaks with an enthusiasm and passion for his subject that will make you question the clarity of your own business thinking."
– Britta T – Flower Shop
I was very reluctant to start business coaching and had many doubts about what the program could offer that I didn’t already have. After three months working with Norm, however, I am completely convinced that coaching it is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my business. In a very short period of time, it has revolutionised the way I think about business, bringing new organisation, direction and motivation. As a coach, Norm brings excellent perspective to any situation, whether it relates to day to day operations or long term vision and goals. I wish I had done this sooner!
-Christine O- Realtor
Normand has a unique set of skills to help you do what it takes to be successful. He helps you stay honest and accountable to your vision for yourself, your family and your business. For small business owners like us, Norm was a great support in bringing some of our many ideas and goals into the real world. He took the time to get to know us and our business, and was instrumental in our process of hiring and training new staff. Thanks Norm!
-Amanda and Carter K - Landscaping and design Company
For a few years we have been trying to find some sort of guide to help us organise our business and work with our company and our ideas. We had talked with at least a half dozen companies. At our interviews all of these companies told us how they could point out we were doing wrong, and that our company would fail if we didn’t get their help.
Then we met Normand Burke. Right away we noticed Norm’s passion to help businesses and their owners grow and realise their true potential and to show the owners that working on the business rather than in their business would be the benefit.
Normand came to our first meeting and asked us where we wanted our company to go. Norm offered to work with us to make our company stronger.
Our company has worked hard to get all of our ducks in the one row. Its even better to have someone help us line those ducks up, release the ones we don’t need and take care of the ones we do.
