Currently, only 78.5% of businesses survive the first year. One of the reasons for this is poor planning. Also, some entrepreneurs enter the market without researching whether their product fulfills a need in the market. The journey towards entrepreneurship is not comfortable. As such, you need an influential mentor or partner who can help you overcome the challenges.
It is for this reason that we had a chat with Kevin Suter. Kevin is a highly sought after business leader and respected ministry leader. This versatile entrepreneur has over 15 years of experience traveling and speaking in countries around the world. Besides, Kevin has a reputation for growing businesses 5x-10x in a matter of months. Kevin not only thrives on business development but also restructures, reinvigorates, and redefines his client’s definition of success itself.
Kevin Suter-Bio
Kevin Suter is the owner of the Suter Group. This consulting and technology company helps starting and growing businesses and nonprofits achieve their desired growth.
Before venturing into entrepreneurship, Kevin worked a short stint at Merrill Lynch and many years with The Strength Team (A world-renowned ministry). Working in the ministry department helped him learn from some of the best leadership experts in the industry. Kevin’s work entailed developing countless growth opportunities for nonprofits around the world.
Kevin was an underdog. He has always thrived to give his wife and 2 children a life he believes they deserve. Kevin was working 80-100 hours a week for years. “Even Though I had accomplished amazing things and was blessed to be part of so many businesses and nonprofits, I was never able to get past the paycheck to paycheck lifestyle. I decided it was time to go for it, throw caution to the wind and relentlessly go after my goals. We started The Suter Group, a small business consulting and tech company, and we have not looked back,” he says.
In the first six months, The Suter Group has helped around 20 small businesses plan, develop, launch, and prosper.
Helping Small Businesses Reach New Levels
Let me paint a picture for you. Imagine 3 men serving in the US Army stationed in Afghanistan partnering up to create a car detailing company, Grizzly Auto Detailing was being launched in New York from Afghanistan and their ability to grow was non-existent due to the distance between the owners and their home office. Now imagine Kevin getting a WhatsApp call from Josh Hagen the owner and founder of Grizzly Detailing in New York. Kevin helped Josh create a plan for Grizzly, a company that was currently doing -$520.00/mo. Kevin’s team took over and went to work to make Josh and his team’s dream, reality. The Suter Group created and manages Grizzlys website, Facebook page, Business operations, automated scheduling and billing services. Quickly becoming a resource for Grizzly they never expected. Not only was their business and operations now in order but Kevin’s ability to meet with and counsel the Grizzly senior team created a sounding board that they truly needed.
Kevin and his team were able to create such traction for Grizzly Detailing that their productivity grew so fast that in the first 90 days Grizzly was already on track to make over 100 thousand dollars. Since then Grizzly has taken over their industry and became a prolific standard for auto care. Grizzly auto has expanded from a single location to adding a mobile unit as well and are currently working to launch its first franchise location in Syracuse.
“Two things took place that are very important to highlight here”, Says Kevin “A company’s ability to recognize their blind spots and not be afraid to search out help, and secondly the same team having the ability to put in the work and grind until they see their dreams come true. I am so proud to have been part of this amazing journey with Grizzly and Josh. They will prosper to levels no one expected.”
At the same time, The Suter Group has helped multiple businesses grow rapidly even during the Covid-19 pandemic. Berserker Gyms in Idaho grew their social media engagement over 1,000%, added new members, and used the custom software built for them to keep the gym open even during the virus shut down. Safe Comp Solutions was in a rut and The Suter Group was able to pull them up and help get everything back on track. Thava is the next up and coming business that has hired The Suter Group to help them develop and launch in the next few months. This So-Cal based business is expected to create a culture that will rival national-based brands.
Nonprofits and profit companies face similar challenges. Some of these challenges include growth challenges, infrastructure, financial issues, plus many more. Moreover, today’s volatile economy means that businesses face the challenge of an uncertain future. The good news is that the Suter Group helps companies overcome these hurdles.
Kevin’s passion and business are all about helping small businesses reach new levels. This serial entrepreneur does this using cutting edge tools and strategies designed to help the business grow. Kevin always partners with his clients. After that, he helps the company diagnose their issues and offers strategies that will help them achieve business growth.
Kevin has started multiple companies and helped develop management tools to assist businesses and nonprofits in their expansion and overall success. As a technology creator, he has worked on simple business automation tools to extensive management platforms for companies to use and thrive with, Kevin has sown his core beliefs into each product or service he’s created.
One of the reasons that you should partner with Kevin is for the mentorship. This man has experience developing small businesses through a strategic mix of social media solutions and technology. Kevin has experience working with for-profit and nonprofit companies. As such, you can believe him when he says all goals are attainable.
A Painful Past but a Bright Future
Kevin is willing to do whatever it takes to fulfill his dreams. He believes that for you to achieve your greatest success, you must learn to love your failures. Kevin is a man who has fought depression and suicidal tendencies that started in his youth due to low self-esteem and an inferiority complex. Yet, he overcame all that to become a successful entrepreneur.
We can all agree that Kevin is an underdog who became a success. If you feel the same, then it’s time you reached out to the Suter Group and started your journey to newfound success.
