Stephen Jones’s Summary

GROWTH STRATEGIES offers 'hands-on' Sales & Marketing consulting with a GUARANTEE since 2001. The point at which most marketing services fall short is in the wrong strategy, or the lack of implementation!

We offer our aggressive GUARANTEE (sometimes as much as 25% increase in sales within 6 months) because we are the hands and feet of rolling out the strategic marketing plan!

This has been our primary reason for starting the business, as well as an OVERWHELMING need for a Structured Process and System for Sales & Marketing for small businesses.

My goals are to help business owners become efficient and effective strategic marketers in their business. Moving them from operating their business tactically, to operating strategically.

From 1998 - 2001, I operated NTERACTIVE DESIGN which was a web design and development company. In addition to web design & development, we provided logo design, web interface templates, database development and Internet marketing services.

From 1995 - 1998, I operated TELESOLUTIONS which was a telecommunications reseller of products and services - such as pre-paid cellular phones, pagers, mobile phones, toll-free solutions and even Internet TV boxes.

Stephen Jones’s Specialties:
