The organization serves clients in math, science, STEM, and standardized test preps via in person and virtual tutoring. INC is extremely passionate about providing its students with cooperative learning environments, conforming sessions and tutoring tailored to each pupils’ specific learning style. Jay possesses a background in IT technology and an astounding reputation for teaching and educating others.
Here, Jay provides us with the formula to help produce a successful business:
Start with Your Vision
Jay’s company started with the grassroots approach. It was just him in the beginning, knocking door to door. Starting with about 1-5 clients and later realizing he needed more help, he brought additional consultants on board. Today, with 9 consultants on the team, INC has been able to build partnerships with organizations such as the Jack and Jill Organization, where they provide tutoring to different families in the Dallas, Texas, area who need tutoring services. Although he runs the overall operations of the company, Jay still tutors students. He simply took his passion and made it into a business.
What Sets You Aside
To gain clientele, Jay let his prospects know his qualifications.
Secure Your Business
Keep in mind, you cannot do everything by yourself. You can’t go into any type of business and build it with just one person. You have to build the right team to go along with you as you increase your customer
Challenge Yourself to Produce More Growth
Check on your business. Jay holds quarterly meetings to monitor both the company and its employees. Topics discussed include partnerships, essential employee resources, and how well current procedures are working. Checking on your business will allow you to develop ideas for growth and change. It will also give you opportunities to work on your business, instead of always in your business. Jay reminds himself, “When you jump off the cliff, you have to build the wings on your way down.â€
