Family Businesses

The unique challenge for owners and managers of family businesses is separating their family roles and priorities from their business roles and priorities.

At Paradigm Associates, we partner with CEOs, Presidents, and Owners to help determine and then execute a practical strategy for their business. It involves getting people, processes, and structure in sync with the vision, values, strategy, and goals of the business.

Here are some of our proven processes that have helped Family Businesses, in particular, improve their business results, regardless of their point in their life cycle:

No pressure. We promise.

You learn about us; we learn about you. In particular we’d hope you can share with us:

  • Where you’re trying to drive the business over the next 18—24 months
  • What if you get there? What if you don’t?
  • Challenges you see that could get in your way.

You can then decide if it makes sense for us to proceed further or not.


Whatever conclusion you reach is acceptable to us.

Whether your current role and responsibility is an Executive VP managing the sales and marketing functions, a Managing Partner who is concerned about the state of business development in the firm, Sales Manager who is responsible for the care and feeding of the sales staff, or an individual salesperson who is looking to improve individual performance, we have written this section with you in mind.

Whenever we work with people who are responsible for your sales and business development results, we keep in mind that while certain fundamentals are common to all who are attempting to influence others' buying behavior, there can be significant differences between how products vs services, and high-end vs low-end offerings are typically purchased, or expected to be purchased, in the marketplace today.

In addition to utilizing proven approaches and learning materials, our clients tell us that we provide a significantly different prospective to you that comes from our experience of selling into over 70 different industries.
