A Business Growth Advisory

In the growth course of almost every business, there lies the dreaded plateau. This plateau usually exists because the existing knowledge base within the company has become exhausted. At this point the company has two choices, remain stuck at its exiting level, or bring in outside expertise with a greater knowledge base to upswing it over the hump.

This is what we do at Upswing Consulting. We get you swinging again. And at a fraction of the cost of bringing on a full-time expert.

Growing Balanced Businesses, Profitably

When you work with Upswing Consulting, you are working with Fred Hanover, a seasoned, dedicated, business intuitive, who knows how to drive growth. 

Upswing offers strategic growth services by providing Fractional Chief Growth Officer Services. This allows our clients to benefit from having a seasoned expert lead their growth/sales efforts, while saving greatly over the cost of hiring a professional growth and sales leader full-time.

Upswing Consulting utilizes a proprietary growth formula, created by adapting several of Honda’s strategic planning formula-based processes to the revenue growth side of business. Honda is considered one of the top three strategic planning companies in the world. Fred learned Honda’s strategic planning processes from the author of Honda’s Strategic Planning Manual.
 

In addition to developing a strategic growth plan for our clients, we implement this plan by directly managing our client’s sales force. We have had superior success in managing sales teams throughout the years.

As a result of the use of these strategic processes, and our direct sales involvement, it has been common for client companies to experience 60%-70% revenue expansion within 18 months. Some clients have doubled and tripled their revenue within 2-3 years.

Our strategies, methodologies, and leadership, are industry agnostic. This has allowed us to successfully consult with client in the software development, public service, healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, and security industries.

“We look forward to bringing our experience and expertise to your company, to help you grow profitably.”
