My name is Greg Gunther. I'm a co founder of the coaching firm your business Momentum and with basically our role or our goal if you like, is to help people live more enjoyable lives. We've been charting or actually mapping processes for over five years now. But again, it was frustrating because we teach the business owners and the business teams how to do it, but it really got no traction. The moment that we'd pass the ball across and asking them to do it for themselves, it never happened. And I think when we came across Systemology, where it's a done for you service, the light bulb went on. I thought, this is something that we can really add some high value to our clients and we're not asking them necessarily to put too much of themselves out. They can still largely work on their business themselves doing what they do really well, but we can help them through the course of time document their core systems. So Systemology was a really good fit for us for that. What I love about the process that the Systemology team put together is the structure. I think for us we had a lot of scope creep happening with the way that we were doing it and it was really hard to sort of tighten that up. Whereas now this Systemology process, it's very structured, very clearly scoped and we are able to add more value along the way. It identifies even more opportunity as we go through the process. So it was a very easy decision in the end for us to invest in it. We've got a number of other partners that I'm also talking to and our intent is to create Systemology as a cornerstone or keystone offering for your business momentum and create a fully fledged business out of that. So I will see us hitting 6 and like to think even in 18 months, hitting 7 figures. Just coming through on the back of Systemology, the investment itself really is with the amount of support that we get, the templates, the access to system hub, a lot of the model systems that David and his team have already put together. It's really a great investment I see us getting. In fact, I've already recovered the cost just in the few clients that we've been working on. So that's all happened in the first couple of months. So it's actually not a cost at all. We're now in front. A lot of programs that I've done in the past haven't been nearly as practical as that. They're an investment, but then a lot of it requires you to do the grunt work, still do the grunt work. Whereas here the key difference I'm seeing with systemology is that it's all prepackaged, it's all put together, the training is well structured and thought through, and we, we can actually hit the ground running. Like the, as I said, the investment return for me and our business at your business momentum came back within a couple of months. So again, not a lot of programs you can do that. They take quite a while to see any recovery of.
