Internet Program Manager for Worldwide Training

As a business growth strategist, author, and former Apple exec, I facilitate a 90 day process that transforms overwhelmed managers into admired leaders who are eager to grow the business and develop their team/dept/division.

What’s Going On
😖  Have you noticed that the regular tempo of productivity you rely on has taken unexpected dips and dives?

😖  Are you under pressure to produce growth while you’re barely getting by each week, performing heroic saves, yet unable to get to the longer-range planning & strategic steps?

😖  Are you surprised at all that your direct reports have not stepped up to claim more responsibility? Are you wondering who is interviewing for other opportunities?

💥  Senior managers – especially in the high tech, privately held firms that I work with –  want to see improvements in the business operations, processes, and relationships improve, not just suffer and endure.

💥  Business leaders are struggling to right the ship. Without an approach that addresses the underlying causes, behavior change initiatives fail more than 70%. 

💥  Half-hearted efforts produce not just poor results, but perhaps backlash from your people. It doesn’t have to be that way. 


When We Work Together
📈   You get the levels of engagement that are good for morale and measurable via market growth, reduced costs, improved profit margins, and lower turnover.

💪 You can see results for yourself in 2-weeks. 

👊  Stop settling for results that are below what you know your people are capable of producing.

👊  Escape the trap of solving your manager's problems and give them the support to become more effective.

What Other Senior Leaders Say
💬  "I highly recommend Bill for any company who is looking for a talented person to help them with things such as marketing strategies, product positioning, company presentations, and overall good judgment regarding personnel and the organization.”
Bret Dunlap, CEO/President • Advanced Mobile Solutions

💬   “Whenever I was stuck, I knew Bill would be able to listen, ask a few questions, and come up with insights that really made a difference, whether it was with a strategy decision, go-to-market opportunity, or de-risking a new venture. Bill is an invaluable asset to any technology leader.”
Nitin Khanna, CEO • Archer Insights

LinkedIn Trainer and Masterclass Host

Improved Together, LLC

Improved Together is an exclusive community of like-minded professionals working together to develop their personal brand by making LinkedIn work for them.

There is no doubt that LinkedIn is one of the most powerful platforms for prospecting and nurturing relationships, but with its clever algorithm that decides if your posts will be shown to more people, it’s likely only a handful of people will see your posts - even with the best content marketing strategy. This means that your efforts won’t generate any meaningful business benefit. 

My goal is to tip the scales for every post you submit by making sure it gets enough Likes, Comments and Shares so the algorithm works in your favor.  

With my Improved Together Post Party software most users will experience at least 300 to 500% greater exposure, more profile views, more comments, more new connections and more inquiries about your business from people you haven’t connected with before each time you post. 

How do we do this? Every month my team invests tons of time and money uncovering the types of content and behaviors LinkedIn favors (and what it will penalize you for) and match what we find with the tactics used by the best LinkedIn marketers in the world to make sure our software is delivering the very best results.

To maintain integrity, we operate an ‘application only’ process to make sure only the right people are in our network, as well as provide a feedback/opt-out tool for posts you don’t believe are good enough quality to engage with. 

If you would like to know more about our network and how to apply, watch the demo video in the Featured section above and schedule a short call using the link at the top of my profile. 

Every month I host a three day training program (three 1 hour daily sessions) sharing the latest LinkedIn developments   Message me if you’d like to  receive an invitation.

Improved Results LLC

At Improved Results, for the first 25 years, I worked with businesses whose revenue had become stagnant or flat to dramatically increase their profit. My Increase Revenue CPR System – based on 45-years of experience – is proven to predictably grow revenue for businesses that currently have annual revenues of $1m to $30m. 

Since starting my consulting business in 1997, I have worked with almost 1,300 businesses in 85 different niches. 

How we can work together:

14-DAY SLINGSHOT CHALLENGE
Many people don’t realize that if you get 1% better at something each day the law of compounding takes over, and within a year, you’ll have improved by almost 38x. In this challenge, I’ll introduce you to the principles I’ve been using to help thousands of business leaders improve their results both professionally and personally. 

Each day you’ll receive a short video lesson (with some assignments along the way), to help you identify the areas within your business, that if you focused on improving by 1% each day would radically transform your personal and business results within a year. 

I am a big believer in ‘Paying It Forward’ and so offer this course entirely for free to those who are committed to achieving results.

MY 90-DAY “QUICK WINS” PROGRAM
Built on three founding principles of my Increase Revenue CPR SystemTM, this program focuses on building your Campaigns, Branding and ideal client Avatar. Working directly with me via an exclusive direct message channel and small group support sessions, we’ll create the assets for your business that will dramatically change your results. I am so confident it will transform your business; I guarantee results. If you’re not happy after 30-days, I’ll refund the full fee, no questions asked. 

At the end of the 90-day program, if we mutually decide to continue our relationship, and if you qualify, I will guarantee results.

Xavier University - Williams College of Business

In 1997, two students approached me asking what I knew about the internet. At the time, there were only 72,000 websites in the world. I spent the next eight weeks researching the future of the internet and exploring how it could be used as a business tool. Recognizing its potential, and having to begun to work with clients, I approached the Dean of the Xavier University Williams College of Business and informed him there was no MBA program in Online Marketing within 250 miles of Cincinnati and “Why don’t we do it.?”. I went on to create the program and became an adjunct professor teaching the two courses for the next four years.

The Henry P. Thompson Company

The Henry P Thompson Co .is an Ohio water and wastewater equipment sales company established in 1910. When I joined the company as a Sales Engineer the company had annual revenues of $2 M with a sales team of six. Working together we increased the company’s revenue to $7M, at which point I was invited to buy shares and become a part-owner, and eventually the President and CEO. 

At the helm for five years, I grew the company to US$15m adding new divisions and opening sales offices in Indiana and Kentucky. Wanting to take a new direction and focus on my family more, I opted to sell my shares in the company and become a consultant. 

During this time, I also studied for an MBA at Xavier University and joined the  business college Dean’s Board of Advisors.

Quit Wasting Time & Money On LinkedIn| Known as "The Old Dog With New Tricks" | Using LinkedIn Teaching, Training, Mentoring, Coaching & Post Parties to increase post exposure

"Why do 98% of LinkedIn users get it all wrong? I used to be one of them."

I had 9,000 connections, but I was invisible—posting sporadically, getting a few hundred views, and no leads. 

Then I stumbled upon a proven system that changed everything.
 
My first attempt? Over 4,000 views on my post. People started reaching out. My business turned around.

Since August 2020, I’ve helped over 8,500 professionals make LinkedIn work for them, through teaching, coaching, systems, and strategy.

One core principle that is central to my life and how I do business, is making sure I have time for my family. 

While the results I created building my first company were impressive, my family life was not. It took my wife and kids leaving me for me to wake up and ‘smell the coffee’,  as they say.

Devastated by what I saw about myself, I radically changed my perspective and the way I worked and won my family back. I’ve now been married for 52  years and have great relationships with my wife, children and grandchildren. 

Results I also want for my clients if that's important to them.! 

If you’re a coach, consultant, or solopreneur, here’s how I can help:

•	Visibility: Get seen by the right people.

•	Engagement: Turn views into real conversations.

•	Growth: Leverage LinkedIn as a powerful lead-generation machine.

You don’t have to figure this out alone. I’ve done the hard work for you.
