24 | Kitchen & Bath Design News | September 2015 Bettering Your Bottom Line on-the-job training program before being released as a consultant, de- veloping their own design practice under our roof. Ultimately, I was able to hire and develop 14 successful sales de- signers this way. My "diamonds in the rough" included a former com- mercial office designer, business machine sales person, art teacher, food consultant, fower store owner, furniture salesperson, remodeling contractor, wallpaper/paint store owner and clothing executive, just to name a few. My job as trainer and manager was to polish them so they all would shine brightly. They learned, adopted and leveraged our unique, interactive consumer bud- geting system to get retained on projects quickly, some- thing they considered pivotal to their development. After 2-1/2 years of experience, they averaged $860,000 in annual sales (based upon the value of today's dollars) at 51.5% gross proft mar- gins. Indeed, their success enabled my frm to develop and operate three additional showrooms where the satel- lites earned 14-17% pretax net proft after two to three years in business. This approach to build a professional team from the bottom up will not give deal- er/owners the quick boost in sales they may want. But if you are looking to build an enduringly sustainable busi- ness model, with consistent revenue and bottom line growth, it's something you should try. Let me know if you would like a copy of the curriculum. Perhaps you will become as proud of your recruits, and their contributions to your company and the industry, as I have been of mine. One was even voted into the In- dustry Hall of Fame. Ken Peterson, CKD, LPBC, is president of the Chapel Hill, NC-based SEN Design Group.
