THE FASTEST WAY TO SUCCESS

June '09

It's a tough market out there for interim managers and consultants. There are less assignments, more competition, longer decision making cycles and rates are being pushed downwards.

In order to succeed, it's more important than ever before that you differentiate yourself and stand out from the crowd.

Whether you are a newcomer to interim management or a seasoned practitioner finding it hard to secure your next assignment, I can help.

Over the past four years I have worked with over 1000 new and experienced interim managers and consultants. I have helped them kick-start their new careers and boost their existing ones. I guarantee that when you work with me I will be totally focused on helping you sell and market yourself to achieve your goals quickly and cost effectively - defining your offer and target markets, getting meetings with key decision makers and selling yourself successfully in meetings.

Here are comments from recent coaching clients:

"Have been following your advice and am pleased to say that on Thursday I was offered not one but two different six month contracts. One was at a significantly higher day rate than the other and more like the work I was doing at Citi so I was very pleased to accept it – and start on Monday".

- Heather-Anne Hubbell - Interim Manager - May '09

"A short coaching session with Simon gave me three key benefits:
1. A good market understanding
2. Great tools to tackle the new way of working
3. The confidence to succeed -
I have started my first assignment ahead of schedule.
Well worth my time. Stopped me hestitating and started me going for change wholeheartedly
"

- Richard Lerner - Interim Manager - March '09

Following a run of unsuccessful interviews in the wake of a number of notably successful assignments I booked a session with Simon Berry of Interim Assignment. We explored a wide range of interview aspects from application and preparation through to post interview. We pinned down what it was that really motivates me in securing roles. Simon's style is relaxed, direct and probing. Within a couple of hours we arrived at some very promising tactics and strategies for handling future interviews at senior level. Anyone experiencing the frustration of 'coming second' time after time should seriously consider a session with Simon Berry - especially since I secured the very next assignment I went for.

I would just like to say thank you again for all the help you have given me in understanding the world of interim management.

I finished with British Gas in Cardiff just over two weeks ago and I have now secured an interim project manager position in the Department of Transport. I start my new role in London tomorrow. The project is very high profile, challenging and impacts the whole of the rail industry. It could be quite an experience!

"Having decided that I wished to leave the security of full time employment, I felt I needed some really good advice to help me plan my new life as an "interim" manager. I wanted to be able to speak to someone directly - to receive help and suggestions that were tailored to my personal circumstances, and help me to achieve my specific goals. Working with Simon provided me with sound advice, and a list of actions - these have helped me enormously in the setting up and marketing of my business, and I would have no hesitation in recommending a coaching session to anyone considering a similar move themselves."

- Martin Smith - Interim Manager - March '09

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Let me start by asking how much you intend to charge per day. Recent research shows the average day rate for an interim is £680.00. That is £3400 per week. £13600 per month. So every month without an assignment could be costing you £13600!!

My aim is to help you win assignments considerably quicker than on your own. Commonly my clients say I have saved them a great deal of wasted time (over three months in many cases, which equates on average to over £30,000!!)

My one to one coaching fees are £295.00 for three hours. We can accomplish a great deal in that time, though you would probably be better budgetting for two sessions. Bearing in mind your potential monthly income and the amount of time you will save, this represents an enormous return on your investment.
