Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is based on 3 core principles:
-
1. Always begin with the customer in mind.
-
2. Analyze the evidence & data when making decisions.
-
3. Trust your gut!
Everything begins and ends with the customer. Without the customer, nothing exists! That's why everything we do starts with the customer in mind.
We're also nerds
when it comes to marketing & business. While others are enjoying Netflix and the latest series on HBO, we're reading academic journals and research papers to give our clients a competitive edge. Yet, there is still no substitute for experience.
That's why we have also learned to trust our instincts. These three principles are what have helped us create innovative solutions & extraordinary results for our clients.
Our Staffing Model
Our staffing model at Breakthrough Pros is also very different. As a client, you work directly with the owner, Dennis Sullivan, who develops
the strategy and is actively involved getting the work done!
