International Profit Associates Employers should listen to employees! Buffalo Grove Illinois

Please listen to people in your company that are willing to help if you don't have time to research yourself!!!! IPA came into our company after the new owner took over. I as an employee ask the "consulant" for a business card. He was reluctant to give me one however he did. I checked out IPA inorder to try and protect new owner. I after some hesitation approached the new owner with the information I'd obtained and asked if he had even checked with the BBB. He said yes and found no complaints?? I told him there were over 400 and had printed over 50 supporting documents including court records of the owner and founder of IPA. I asked if he wanted them and he said ok. He continued to work with these people to the tune of 65-75 thousand dollars. They already had his ego so inflated he would not listen. They required post dated checks.

I was approached with some of the most rediculious bidding numbers we were to use for our sub contracting business. I told the guy he obviousally had NO concept of our type of business and if we had to bid at the numbers given to cover overhead and make a profit then lock the doors because you'll never get a job at 80-100 percent gross profit? He asked if I could prove this and my responce was "it will prove itself!!" Furthermore, " Why would you give any employee the whole profit structure of the company" as we as estimators could go to work for competition armed with valuable information.

I told the guy to find ways to cut over head and work from a different prospective than his current one as it wasn't rocket science to see our overhead was way too high if the numbers he came up with were accurate. He never spoke to me again and we still use the same bidding method as before. He left, we are in debt and owner still has an ego. ASK the people around you for advice if you as an owner can't do the leg work yourself. Employees maybe smarter than you think. Had I of charged money for my FREE advice maybe he would of listened!
