Open a lecture, take the tool, use it on one client engagement.

Why a busy service business has a margin nobody can explain

The work gets done, but each client is served from scratch. Small scope changes stay in conversations. Quotes miss review time. The next project waits for the same senior person. An invoice looks like income in a report, while the cash for payroll has not arrived. The missing pieces sit between the offer, the promised work, the people who deliver it and the date you get paid.

What changes after this course

You have one bounded offer and a price tied to stated costs. Changes are written down and have a cost. You see capacity by role and decide between hiring, subcontracting and rescheduling. Project margin and cash are two separate views. Routine delivery has an owner, a check and an escalation route, so every question does not come back to the founder.

What is inside: 513 tools, counted lecture by lecture

You do not have to take this number on trust. Open any lecture and read its description: every tool inside is listed there by name.

Where the tools are

• Predictable income and systems (2 sections, 98 tools). The funnel from enquiry to payment, metrics and unit economics, the CRM, automation and rollout. Twelve workbooks are here.
• Project delivery (4 sections, 98 tools). Business case, stakeholders, scope, plan and schedule, budget, risk, the team, control and closure.

• Process improvement (3 sections, 77 tools). Standardisation, mapping, governance, root causes and advanced analysis.
• Client experience (3 sections, 79 tools). Audit, strategy, the client-facing team, standards, difficult clients and escalation.
• Surveys (2 sections, 42 tools). Types, questionnaire, launch, report and action. The examples in these two sections are employee surveys.

What this course is not

It is not an accounting or legal course: the templates for contracts and cash are working formats, and you check them against the rules of your country.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe. I am also a founder and lead the strategy of my own academy.

My own first service was simple: I improved resumes. I started at 15 dollars, then took 50, then raised the price to 100 and later to 200. The work was the same, and people were satisfied with it. The price of a service is a decision you make, and this course gives the calculations to make it on purpose.
