"I always had a great deal of confidence in my legal skills. What I lacked was confidence in my ability to bring in clients. As a Partner in a well-respected law firm, I knew that for my future and position in the Firm to be validated, I needed to contribute to the Firm by bringing in business. The problem was that I didn't know how to do it.
Twelve years ago I was introduced to ProGrowth and Ken Potalivo. We began to work together using the ProGrowth system which provided me with a structure and system to help me understand what I needed to do to achieve my goal without leaving things to chance. As I began to see results and develop the right relationships, my confidence grew. I began to feel comfortable that I could develop business and not depend on others to feed me work.
Today I enjoy a very satisfying practice and increased respect of my Partners. In addition, I have many contacts outside my Firm who are both friends and referral sources. What I learned along the way--and what the ProGrowth methodology has taught me--is that anyone can be a rainmaker. There are no quick fixes or short cuts. It does take hard work, but by understanding what to do and executing consistently I was able to transform my life and business."

"As a member of the ProGrowth Premier program, I find the time I spend with my business coach each month to be invaluable. My law practice has many demands and I know I am with someone who will help me sort through my business issues as well as to help me stay on course to achieve my business goals.
In addition to the coaching, I meet with a group of my peers who are also involved in the program. We meet in a trusted confidential setting so that we can help each other solve problems and take advantage of each other’s experiences to aide in providing ideas and approaches to achieving businesses success."

"I am very pleased to belong to ProGrowth. Prior to joining, I had no real business contacts in my area area. Within six months of joining ProGrowth, I already had between 20 – 30 quality service providers who are working with me in the marketplace. The program itself, as well as the ProGrowth website, are very educational and have taught me how to best build my book of business. What is even more exciting is the relationships I am developing with my TEAM and knowing they are all looking for opportunities for me just as I am for them. There is no way I would have gotten this far this fast without being a part of ProGrowth. I would highly recommend this group to any professionals looking to expand their network of contacts in the marketplace."

"ProGrowth has all the elements to help us grow our businesses the right way. I like everything about it. There is no hocus-pocus involved. It’s a system that works, if we allow it to. I’m very excited about utilizing ProGrowth to develop the relationships I need to prosper."

"I recently attended the comprehensive orientation program offered by ProGrowth for members. The session really opened my eyes and I am now using the system on a day by day basis. I especially like the reminders section so that I can keep close track of follow-up meetings and telephone calls that are required in my job. Everyone (both old and new members) should take the orientation class so that they can effectively use the program and be a good TEAM member. The monthly action plan also works well to keep track of your goals and how well each person is tracking towards the stated goals. I am a firm believer in the ProGrowth System and will encourage a number of my business contacts to join this organization. "
