2009 is a momentous year for our business, as it embarks on its third 5-year plan — and its largest and most ambitious to date.
Plan One was designed to create awareness and credibility for The Profit Clinic and John Counsel online in similar ways to their presence offline in Australia. The culmination of this strategy was John's appointment as permanent moderator of I-Sales Digest in early 2002. I-Sales Digest was the #1 daily discussion list for online marketing professionals, with a subscriber base and contributor roster that was a veritable Who's Who of marketing luminaries. It was mandatory reading for marketing departments of many Fortune 500 companies and most Ivy League university marketing schools. John resigned just prior to its acquisition by Andrew Bourland, founder of Clickz.com. It still exists today as MarketingVOX blog, one of the most respected professional marketing sites online.
Plan Two was to consolidate that reputation and presence into authority status, and to diversify our online presence into multiple, specialised sites serving our primary target markets and audiences — small and home-based business owners and direct sellers. This concluded at the end of 2008 with a network of close to 100 web sites built around a series of dynamic, highly-targeted hubs.
Plan Three is all about commercialization of the entire online network, consolidation of the business into semi-autonomous profit centres built around our key markets and intellectual properties, plus succession for the next generation of the Counsel family as they move into more active and responsible roles. This includes establishing a physical presence in the USA to better serve our North American market. The Profit Clinic LLC will commence operations, based out of Orlando FL, in early 2009.
