Scott J. Manning, MBA
S. J. Manning is a remarkable person who got off to an early start. While in high school he purchased his own business (a failing Tae Kwon Do school) with money earned earlier with part-time summer jobs. He rapidly turned the business around and attracted new
students while retaining the few that were there when he purchased the business. He purchased all the necessary equipment and created his business structure while earning top honors in his high school class.
His life began to change when he was introduced to Dan Kennedy and Bill Glazer, through a Consultant in the Martial Arts Industry. He then began to, as he puts it, “find his way in the science of Entrepreneurship and the Art of Marketing and Money-Making”. From studying and being an involved part of Glazer-Kennedy Insider’s Circle, he learned how to apply Marketing and Business Growth Strategies beyond Martial Arts.
The real break through, or “turning point” as Manning calls it, was when he had just completed his MBA, then sitting in a room where Bill Glazer, President of Glazer-Kennedy Insider’s Circle, gave an opportunity to team up and apply to become one of Dan Kenney’s Certified No BS Business Advisors, Manning did and was accepted.
Now he overseas and teaches nearly 300 local Entrepreneurs each month and 50 which work closely with Manning in an ongoing Business Development Coaching Program. Manning also authored his first book release early in 2008, Million Dollar Methods – 12 Steps For Growing Your Business.
Manning has an inborn desire to extend himself in varied directions. He thrives on being “too busy” and loves the challenge of building businesses. In 2005, he decided to branch out into real estate investments. As he had done with the motivational literature, Manning read everything he could find about real estate investments and also had long conversation with one of his students who happened to be in real estate sales. According to his usual pattern, Manning had an entire business plan mapped out before he even began to acquire real estate. In 2006 he began the acquisition phase by purchasing his first 4-unit apartment house. He has now acquired and has his own company who manages nearly 60 units, with several on-going negotiations for purchases.
At his current age of twenty-eight, Manning has all the energy of a very young business man but has acquired the wisdom of a much older person by taking advantage of all that he can read about and learn from others. Never one to turn aside advice, he instead listens to any advice he can get, gives it careful consideration and then independently makes the decision best for him. He has proven that he can handle almost any challenge.
As his Consulting Company and acumen for Business Growth and Marketing had continued to develop, he has taken on larger projects and helped several Entrepreneurs launch their own Information Marketing and Coaching Businesses.
He is now working on a National scale to assist in the roll-out and expansion of others Businesses into National Franchising, Area-Exclusive Program, and Licensing. His ability to convert transactional businesses into Membership and Continuity income has brought significant wealth to his clients.
One of his exciting successes among many, with the assistance of his brother Ryan, was taking a client in 45 days, to more than 10 times the number of leads generated, customer and sales conversions through a proprietary online sales process. This will result in more than $2,000,000 in additional revenue, with a minimum of $500,000 in additional bottom line income to his Client, the first year out, with only one phase of the Project complete, you see why this is exciting. This client is part of Manning’s new Marketing Management Relationship Program a turn-key Marketing and Implementation Support System available only to people holding status as Manning’s Private Client.
These results are not out of the ordinary with Manning.
He is known for his speed, aggressive implementation, and a “let’s do it” attitude, and for pushing his clients and members to achieve more and expect more from themselves and their businesses.
Now, Manning takes no incoming phone calls and is not accessible through incoming email, he seldom takes on new clients, charges outside clients $1,000 an hour for individual consulting, he has a waiting list of for his Private Coaching Program, and he is routinely approached regarding ideas and businesses who want to partner with him through his Marketing Management Program.
Manning walks the walk, by only taking on Clients he will confidently generate at least $250,000 in ongoing royalties from himself from an individual project. He often tells his clients he’s interviewing for one of his programs, “with me, You’re buying SPEED & CERTAINTY”. Some people mistake his confidence, for arrogance, sit in a room with him briefly, get him involved in your business, and you’ll soon see, whatever you want to call it, it’s well warranted!
