How WSI Training and Support Contributes to My Success
A video of current WSI Consultants explaining how our comprehensive training and support initiatives have helped them achieve business success. You’ll learn firsthand about the considerable effort we make to ensure every WSI business operates on the cutting edge of the digital industry and how they are fully supported right from the start.
Bill Hamor, WSI Consultant - I don't think I could have built a digital marketing business myself. Based on my experience and my knowledge, I really have benefited greatly from everything that WSI offers in terms of launching your business, whether it's the system infrastructure that they provide, the coaching, the marketing, training, and education. It's really amazing. I was impressed with that whole process that I went through really in the beginning prior to launching my business.
I think it was a great online and in-person curriculum that we went through. The coaching has been amazing. I think it really keeps you focused on the important things and really makes sure that you're able to deal with these issues as they come up early in your business. The system stack that they provide is really great. All the tools that I need to successfully launch this business are there. It really simplifies things. If I was starting this business myself, I would have had to figure out all these different systems that I would want to use and everything for myself. They really have a great process in place that steps you through, and they've done a lot of the thinking, a lot of the analysis, and decisions for you to get you started.
Then you've got the flexibility at that point to take your business in whatever direction you think is going to make you successful. It's helpful to get that handholding and get all those different aspects of the WSI approach in the early days of the business.
Kelly & Roan Biggs, WSI Consultants - The support that we experienced from WSI is pretty much from day one, from the resources that were available online. Some people were reaching out to us directly and some constant contact during those early post-training sessions. From that first day, continued education and support of the technologies, open forums that happen weekly.
The other ICs (Consultants), the network of people who are just embracing you, wanting you to succeed. You would think people would be competitive, but that was not the case. It was more collaborative. I remember when we went to our training, I was like, "Oh, the sales," I saw we had to do sales and I was like, "Yeah, you'll learn a lot," thinking I have, but the sales process is, and I worked for IBM. So, I trained in some of the best sales organizations. This was at least equal if not superior to some of the training that I've received. And it's just continuing on and on and on, very leading edge and again, just extremely supportive where people are genuinely interested in, "Hey, how can I help you grow your business?"
Betsy & Stephen Wilson, WSI Consultants - It's been amazing. It has been absolutely amazing. Between QSP (Quick-Start Program) meetings and those programs, the coaching, the camaraderie that is developed between my training class, fellow trainees. We kind of molded two QSPs together. So, I've kind of got that training class before us that I'm also pretty close with as well. All of those ICs are fantastic. It's just everything and it really, it started with the foundation's training for me. It did such a fantastic job and that's me not looking back at it in the moment. You know, it's like, wow, but now looking back at it, it was exactly what we needed to get ourselves going, whether it was familiarizing ourselves with the tech stack, understanding better what our day to day was gonna look like, understanding what networking was gonna look like, understanding how to tap into spheres of influence, people that are in our lives that can help us, and help us promote our business. Identifying that all of it was just so relevant, so just on the money and so what we needed to really kind of get our business off the ground in that regard.
The initial support has just been great, the community has been great, the overall engagement, the way that information is openly passed amongst us. If I've done something that I know could help someone else out, it's like, here you go and vice versa. That's just, I don't know, almost unheard of. I would think it isn't competitive in any way, shape or form. Like, again, everybody just is really very vested and interested in everyone else's success. So, I can't have anything more to say about that than that. It's just been fantastic!
