Whilst I felt that I already ran a very successful service centre. Enlisting the assistance of Phil to conduct a Health-check on my business was probably one of the best decisions of my career. He helped me to fully understand my financial results, and more importantly, helped me to see how I could improve the sales and profitability of the business which has resulted in significant growth year on year.
