Business Operations Blueprint
Attention: Business Owners, Chief Officers, Solo Entrepreneurs. Do you work in an independently owned business, a corporation, a non-profit, a family owned business, or you would like to start your own business?
Are you tired of worrying that your business might fail?
Is the burden of running the business burning up your income producing time?
In a matter of days, you can have the confidence that your business is running productively with your own, customized Business Operations Blueprint — or “BOB”
From the desk of Chris Hart
Dear Business Leader,
I know that it’s tough out there in the business world today. We’ve all heard the sobering statistics about how 80% of businesses fail within the first 3 years.
Established businesses are also struggling to keep the doors open and are closing at an alarming rate. It’s no wonder that you’re concerned. Even though it’s not your fault that the economy is so brutal, you still have a responsibility to help your organization remain viable and profitable.
Do you ever feel like you are working all the time but don’t know if you’re making any progress? Do you wish there was an easy way to tell if your business is moving forward?
- Have you thought lately…”I feel like the entire burden of this business rests on my shoulders.”?
- Are you frustrated because you don’t have the business data you need to make an important decision?
The Business Operations Blueprint – CEO Edition was created just for you!
“Chris, what an awesome class and what wonderful timing. The Non-Profit Organization that we founded in November is at the stage where this class and the tools that you are equipping us with are mandatory education for us. Thank you for your fine work and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Thank You!”
– Keith, BOB Course Graduate
“Wow! Really great job. Everything was so prepared and organized. Walking through the documents made everything so tangible and practical. You also have a very accessible approach. The guy/gal implementing this doesn’t have to be a biz whiz to get it and plug it in. You’ve done an exceptional job with this whole entity you’ve created! “
–Benjamin, young entrepreneur and BOB Graduate
“Chris, I am definitely a satisfied customer! The Business Operations Blueprint is a great help. When I start to feel like the Lone Ranger out here in my business, I know I can bounce things off Chris and he helps me stay organized and manage the details. I am good at sales and marketing, but not so at Vision Statements, Mission Statements, and Employee Management. Chris knows all that and much more. I rely on him as a sounding board and for his ideas.”
– Steve, Business Owner and BOB Executive Coaching Client
To see how the Business Operations Blueprint – CEO Edition can help you, just ask yourself…
- Are your operational processes unclear and undocumented?
- Is there a toxic team member you don’t know how deal with?
- Is it hard for you to get a clear, current financial status?
- Is your marketing producing satisfactory results?
- Are your projects ahead of schedule and under budget?
- Do you have a defined plan for new products and services?
- Are all your daily activities profitable and productive?
- Do you have an easy way of measuring the success of projects?
“The Business Operations Blueprint – CEO Edition will help you with all of these business issues…and more!”
“BOB is Spectacular! These days, everyone in business is trying to do more with less, yet productivity and profitability are STILL suffering… as is team morale at all levels. The only way to be more profitable with less is to be more productive, and BOB is the best process and instructional system I have yet to come across that gets people and organizations to peak productivity.
The OED, Organization for Entrepreneurial Development, feels so strongly about BOB that we will be featuring (him) this fall and we will be using (him) in our face to face training also.”
– Eric, OED Principal and Founder
“Chris, the first class of the BOB Webinar was great! You were on time; it was full of well organized information, and easy to understand. The proverbial light bulbs were going off as I listened, which resulted in three pages of inspired notes. WOW, Thank you!”
– David, Real Estate Executive

So are you ready to GET STARTED or do you have a few more questions?
Chris, I’m working almost non-stop now. How will I have time to implement BOB?
I know how busy you are. That’s why I designed BOB so that your Business Operations Blueprint can be developed AS you run your business. I’ve done all of the hard work for you. Just follow the simple step-by-step processes as you go about your business day.
A friend of mine had a consultant come in and charge them $35,000 to do a business plan and left them with a big black binder. Is this what BOB is?
NO! Not at all! The problem with the Big Black Binder consultants is that even if the content in the binder is excellent, they leave it up to the business leader to implement all the changes. Guess what? Most businesses never execute any of the changes the consultants recommend. BOB is created to capture YOUR best practices so that it is fun and easy to make sure your business is on track to success
Will BOB work for ministries and non-profits?
Absolutely! In addition to being a Fortune 100 consultant, I’ve served as an Executive Pastor and Business Administrator for multiple 501(C)(3)organizations. BOB is based on rock-solid business principles that apply to all ministries, para-church organizations, and not-for-profit groups.
Is implementing my own BOB going to be too complicated for me?
No. You and I both know that if something is difficult or takes a long time, we just never get around to doing it. The BOB worksheets are in a conversation style and can be filled out by a solo entrepreneur, a small team of 2 or 3 business leaders, or by an entire department. The worksheets take a step-by-step approach and walk you through creating a simple process that allows you to be highly productive.
Is BOB beneficial for a business that is just starting?
Yes! The BOB CEO Edition will guide you through creating your Vision Statement, Financial Plan, first year goals, and Marketing Plan. Plus, the Business Operations Blueprint supplies you with all of the templates, certificates, and registers to document these critical business elements so that you can show them to potential investors, vendors, bankers, and clients.
Chris, will it really make a difference in my business to have a customized Business Operations Blueprint?
YES…I guarantee it! The reason I can confidently offer you a 100%, no questions asked, money-back guarantee is because I’ve been where you are. I have been frustrated because I didn’t feel that my organization had the right “rails to run on.” That is why I took my 30+ years as an international business consultant and created the easy to implement Business Operations Blueprint – CEO Edition. BOB is the same toolkit that I use when working with my Executive Coaching clients. By implementing the simple techniques in BOB, your business will be well on its way to becoming a world-class organization, and you will have the confidence that your business is running off of a powerful, productive, and profitable plan!
I’m covered by ChrisHart1 Consulting Guarantee, where if for any reason I am unhappy with the BOB CEO Edition, I simply return the materials within one year, for a full refund – no questions asked!
