Is it enough for people to say that if you have the right product at the right price then success is or at least opportunity for success is expected or realistic. The reality is that many great companies, many great ideas and many great products have lost out to second tier companies. The answer in almost all of these situations is customers. Why do most products, services, ecommerce websites, iphone apps or even hotels and restaurants meet failure – in almost all cases it is customers. Many times such lack of customers may be just a representation of a poor product however as a business owner delivering a perfect product is not a question its an expectation.

Who Am I?

I am a mix of technology, hospitality, business consulting, turnaround professional and generally shiny truck and new gadgets syndrome. All combined with a love of business incubation and angel funding. A Smorgasbord of experience and expertise in creating, developing and bringing brands to market and revitalizing those that need a little refresh. Always ready to meet for a coffee in whatever city I am in. That’s my passion, my hobby, my business – overcoming the obstacles between you and the marketplace. Oh – a touch of love for philanthrocapitalism :) With a background in high tech with a number of successful exits, a current portfolio of tech incubator clients and most notably a distress and workout consultancy for the hospitality industry, I have defined a niche to assist companies in business growth, distress and operations management across multiple verticals and always ready for the next opportunity. Blah Blah also SixSigma/Lean Blah Blah CFE, FCSI and lots of other industry acronym accreditation’s… From designing an acceleration and deployment plan to bring a mobile tech platform to market or designing a tech program for consumer acquisition all the way to growing a restaurant chain from 4 to 200 units to developing an award winning concept for a celebrity chef to – from my angle it all fits perfectly. A results focused challenge consultant first, never delivering a pyrrhic victory. The industry is secondary, the new website is tertiary.

Who Is Bob?

Funny Story. For years in presentations, business meetings, conversations, lectures, proposals and prayer i have told companies – make a choice – stand in front of your company and lead it to the promised land or be like “Bob’s Coconuts” and just sit there and wonder why your phone is not ringing – which will it be – so much so that i registered the name and its my alter ego, i am Bob, Bob is me, Bob is all of us who recognize that if you want success you have to go out and find it. Success comes to the people that work their asses off not the people that sit waiting for it to come along.
