Client Comments
Marketing / Sales
What stands out about our experience with Jerry was his ability to truly listen to our situation. Then, as a result of his experience and wisdom, he provided us the insights we needed to formulate an effective business plan and sales strategy. Jerry helped us organize it in ways we just could not have visualized before--he gave us very specific strategies that have been, and will continue to be, invaluable for our business.
E.W., Director, International student travel organization
Jerry has an incredible way of understanding how to zero in on what's really important to your business-what you really need to focus on-then teaching you how to lose anything else you may have been hanging onto. What has most profoundly affected the way I operate after working with Jerry is taking a high-level approach to how decisions are made and simplifying what it is I'm trying to accomplish. I use this strategy with my sales team now and we are so much more effective. I would highly recommend Jerry.
M.O., Director of Sales & Marketing, Ski resort
Jerry made an incredible first impression which he backed up with sincerity, selflessness and a real effort to understand our business. From Jerry we learned how to work better as a firm, how to increase our visibility and how to bring in more business. I would recommend Jerry in a heartbeat.
M.W, President, Professional services firm
Our organization has used Jerry a number of times to facilitate planning. He's such an authentic, knowledgeable asset for us-and so good at keeping everyone on track and working toward our goals. He's always involved and committed. I get repeated requests to bring Jerry back in to help us with other issues. We know we can count on him!
T.D., Membership Manager, Technical society
Jerry introduced formal market planning in four divisions of our company. He worked with key managers and engineers that held quite divergent opinions, but was quickly embraced by all as a valuable resource. He grasped the drivers in each of our businesses, and then led us in a step-by-step process to develop better objectives, strategies and tactics. Jerry brings exceptional leadership and business development skills -and some humor to the process - and his level of personal commitment was exceptional. The result for our company was hugely successful.
C.L., V.P. Corporate Development, Public technology company
Jerry gave us marketing and sales strategies that continue to make us more effective, saving us time, effort and frustration. He was surprisingly effective at listening to our situation, helping us to focus our approach and giving us the insights we needed to grow the business. He brought us back on task quite frequently when we tended to wander. I started the process not knowing what to expect. I came away from it with the tools we needed to succeed. I was surprised at how valuable it was to work with Jerry.
S.C., Director of Marketing, Hospice
What I enjoyed most about working with Comer & Associates, was learning that we didn’t need another subject matter expert. What we needed was a process—a process that worked. We got so much more than your typical high-level market research. Instead, we came away with a very specific understanding of the potential market and our place within it. Comer & Associates really drives down into specific, detailed research and delivers the insights your business decisions need.
D.H., Sr. Vice President, International architectural and engineering firm
Strategy / Team
One of Jerry's key strengths is his ability to assess a situation quickly and focus on the real issues. He's able to effectively guide a discussion so that the critical concerns are addressed and resolved; and he's exceptional about providing follow-up documentation that summarizes what the meeting accomplished.
D.K., Executive Director, 12,500 member professional society
Jerry coached me through a period where I was wondering if I was going in the right direction professionally and how I might be more successful, professionally. I found it a very effective process and an in-depth process as well. He's worked with our whole company for the last 5 years guiding our organization through high-level training on core business tactics: goal setting, problem resolution, solution-based thinking, and so on. I highly recommend Jerry because he's smart and experienced in what he's coaching one on. He's been in business, he knows what business is about and he's speaking as a businessperson to a businessperson.
T.M., General Manager, Ski resort
Before we brought Jerry in, we were in a slow decline and unable to change course. Jerry helped us with our vision, goal planning, measurements of success and leadership tools to help me manage so we could really grow. Within two years we realized our goal of doubling revenue. Jerry's a great CEO and key employee coach.
S.S., President, Event and experiential marketing company
Jerry coached me through an interesting period during which I had an opportunity to contemplate a career change. He clearly has the experience and the tools that helped me really cut to the chase and focus on the critical questions I needed to ask myself. Jerry's very good at helping you step back and look at the big picture; he doesn't let you miss the forest for the trees. I would highly recommend Jerry to others and already have!
R.B., Insurance company executive
The IMPACT Management Program is cutting-edge material that isn't taught anywhere else as succinctly. It is the most effective change agent I have found for helping an organization implement the processes for successful outcomes. It has improved every aspect of our organization's culture. If every company in the U.S. implemented these processes and protocols, they would improve productivity tremendously over current levels. They've really hit the core of what every American business should be working on to be best in class.
