CPI Business Courses will  help you put into practice six strategies that are vital for business success:
 

1.   Your Organizational Strategy: The vision of what your business will become.  The mission of your business; the clear statement of what your business ultimately has to do to make your vision possible. The planning and fitting together of the people and activities involved in doing the work of your business; making sure that the right work is being done the right way—with the desired results.

2. Your Sales and Marketing Strategy: The strategy for developing a cost-effective program for advertising and publicizing your business, understanding the sales process, prospecting for new clients, preparing a powerful sales presentation, cultivating trust and building rapport, overcoming  objections, estimating and workloading, bidding, and closing the sale.

3.   Your Administrative and Financial Management Strategy:  The means by which your business produces the results and the profit you want.  The strategy for developing financial policies and systems to measure your progress, efficiency, and profitability; managing your assets, planning for business growth and market expansion, communicating, persuading, and influencing people; teaching people in your company how money gets made--and lost--and what they can do about it; and how to use delegation as a tool for managing organizational change. 

4.   Your Human Resources Strategy: The strategy for hiring, developing, and keeping the right people; making sure they are committed to the company mission and understand the purpose of their work.  The strategy for solving the problems you face because of the unpredictability of your people. The means for building a team of willing and trained individuals who are united around a challenging common goal and are empowered to implement consensus decisions.

5.   Your Customer Service and Quality Management Strategy: The means by which you can determine what your customers really want, not what you think they want, and how to fulfill their expectations.  The strategy for giving employees the people skills they need to handle any situation, avoid complaints, prevent burnout, and enhance communications.  The means for building a Total Quality Culture by promoting ethics and empowered decision making and leadership in the workplace.

6.   Your Team Building and Supervision Strategy:  The strategy for building a team of willing and trained individuals with an increase in productivity and a decrease in stalemates. The means for developing personal effectiveness, managing many personalities, and working with groups.  The blueprint for improving your bottom line with the most cost-effective, time-wise training methods available.  The strategy for empowering employees to do the work and give their best, and then recognizing them in meaningful ways.
 

What materials are included, and how long does it take to complete the courses?

Each course includes eight workbooks. Some modules include an audio cassette. Workbooks contain illustrations, graphs, charts, and text written in easy-to-understand language. 

Most workbooks take two to four hours to read and another two to four hours to complete the exercises.  Depending upon available time, the average person can complete a workbook in four to eight hours and an entire course in thirty-two to sixty-four hours spread over a period of several weeks, usually one or two months.  Since this is a self-directed program, there is no time limit for completion. 

You may request a certificate upon completion of each course, although participation in the certificate program is not a requirement for purchase. To receive a certificate, submit photocopies of the workbook exercises to: CPI Business Development, PO Box 6350, Portland, OR  97228-6350 along with a payment of $25.00 for the certificate.

If you have two or more managers or supervisors who need training in a specific module at the same time--and you want to save the cost of purchasing separate modules for each of them--you may purchase one module and have your managers or supervisors share the workbooks.  You may want to have them each use a different workbook so they can be studying at the same time. 

One to five days is usually adequate to finish most workbooks.  Participants may return their workbooks to the person in their company assigned to direct this learning program and then receive their next workbooks.  The workbooks do not have to be studied in any specific order.  At the end of one or two months you and your managers and supervisors who are sharing the same course material  will finish at the same time.  You may then meet to decide how you will implement what you have learned before moving on to another course.
