As part owner and CFO of LNC Merchant Services, I enlisted Beyond Implementation to help us increase sales for our credit card processing business. Our success is largely due to our new marketing efforts, new CRM program, print materials, and sales coaching initiated by Lisa. She evaluated our business, created a vision, and that vision is being executed. In the last year, our sales have tripled.

Our retail store recently moved to a new location and we are looking to grow the non-pewter side of the business another 50%. In order to accomplish that, we had to find a cost-effective manner to increase sales.

Beyond Implementation recommended a permission-based email marketing campaign that would target repeat customers. The campaigns are highly cost-effective compared to mail campaigns. We tracked the results and made a return on our investment after the first month! Within three months, we’ve generated several thousand dollars in new sales. After working with Lisa at Beyond Implementation for several years, we've doubled our email marketing and drastically cut our printing efforts. This has been a great cost-saver!

The business challenge was to develop a solution that would integrate with the software used by our client, Dartmouth Hitchcock.  The web-based solution was designed to allow end-users to view their product selection online. This required custom renderings of products to be viewed with descriptions and pricing in an easy-to-navigate web-based format.

Beyond Implementation championed the project and facilitated communication between our business needs and her technical developers to produce an excellent end-result. For the business challenges that face you, I encourage you to consider speaking with Lisa Von Bargen. Her high-energy, professionalism and range of expertise are an excellent resource for any business.

As the owner of Project Complete Inc., I managed the development and launch of the company’s flagship software, Web Form Maestro. After a year on the market, sales volume did not meet expectations. Therefore, Lisa Von Bargen was hired as a Business Adviser in June of 2005 to help us understand how to move our business forward.After evaluating our business, she identified core areas that were limiting the company’s success. She developed a workbook that contained activities that drove us to think differently about how the business was being managed. An effective consultant must have strong analytical abilities as well as a motivational communication style that drives others to change. Lisa possesses these abilities and is well worth the investment in her services.

RFP  R E S P O N S E S

Walsh Bros. Office Equipment is a $30MM company that has successfully operated in Arizona since 1919.  We engaged Lisa Von Bargen of Beyond Implementation to provide the expertise we needed on a consulting basis, without having to add a full-time employee. She played a key role in helping Walsh Bros. secure a $20MM contract that required advanced technical capabilities. Lisa wrote the technical portion of the RFP. She then helped Walsh to create customer web sites, build new process models, and train our sales force in a matter of months. This has helped us to win new business, integrate with our customers electronically, and create a competitive advantage.
