CONSULTING
Tailored business solutions
to maximize growth
SURGE Business Consulting engages with financial professionals to create tailored business solutions to maximize growth in their respective businesses. Through our 20/20 process, Surge holds itself and the financial professional accountable to reaching new heights together.
Surge Business Consulting is not a sales coaching or traditional track consulting program. It is an exclusive bespoke process to bring out the very best from financial advisors who understand they are better than present. They desire to Surge in every aspect of their business.

FOUNDATION
(STRATEGIC)

RISKS + GROWTH
OPPORTUNITIES
(TACTICAL)

EXECUTION
(ACCOUNTABILITY)
Whether examining our personal relationships or the home we live in, it all begins with the foundation. If the foundation is not rock solid, everything built upon it shall remain weak in perpetuity. Now more than ever, financial services professionals face unparalleled risk and a plethora of opportunity. From new regulation to technologies and talent, identifying and forecasting through risks and growth opportunities is paramount to future success.
Imagine the ability to finally execute all of the great ideas brought forth mentally, or with the help of mentors and industry leaders. Great business people require accountability to fully execute.
DISCOVERY
Since birth we have used discovery as the basis for theory and assumptions, and it is the key driver in learning. Through our initial discovery process we discuss the most important macro factors in your business.
GATHER + OBSERVE (GO)
In a one to two day live engagement Surge consultants will visit your firm and its attachments to conduct thorough research on strategic and tactical forces within your organization, and with most of your associates. This is the basis for all future recommendations and accountability tactics.
DEVELOPMENTAL OUTPUT (DO)
Surge uses the data gathering phases of Discovery and GO to create a world-class facts and findings output completely tailored to your firm. This is unique and is not a collection of business growth modeling from other firms. It surrounds you, and contains all that is needed for you and your business to break through resistance, and perfect what you have so proudly built.
SUMMATION CALL
Other consultants may provide materials and then leave you to interpret. On this call we will review the entire DO together for you to ask questions, challenge findings, and get clarity on why recommendations were made. This is also the stage where you and your key colleagues will prioritize execution.
ACUTE ACCOUNTABILITY
This differentiates Surge from most consultant offerings. A requirement to our program is acute accountability. For one fiscal year we will hold each other accountable to optimal results. You must commit to a minimum of one call per month to be eligible for Surge 20.20.
Businesses of all sizes must make time to
examine risks and opportunities that will
impact sustainability and growth.
Your business is not exempt.
