Kate has a great way of focusing discussions on the key issues, rather than just letting the discussion ramble on in an unproductive fashion. It leads to solutions.

Our store needed a complete overhaul in terms of how we dealt with our employees and that's why we hired Performance Concepts.

  • Organization: Miner's North Jewelers - Travers City, MI
What would Kate do? That is what we ask ourselves when we are in a pickle. Kate Peterson and Performance Concepts is the best money I have invested. I look at it as an investment in myself and my company. Kate has helped me to delegate and get out of ... the way, to let my well trained employees do what I have empowered them to handle.

  • Organization: Fruchtman Marketing - Toledo, OH
The success of any business is the sum of all its parts. As a marketing firm that specializes in the jewelry industry, the most successful jewelers we work with (by far), have an ongoing working relationship with Performance Concepts. We were first introduced to Kate Peterson approximately five years ago ... through a mutual client. This client was growing at a rapid rate -- and although we would have certainly loved to take full credit, it was obvious that her selling strategies and training were an integral part of their success! We have the distinct opportunity to be privy to other training programs. Quite frankly, nothing compares. We never hesitate to recommend Kate and her team and we are all the better for knowing them!

I would recommend Kate Peterson and Performance Concepts to any store owner who truly wants to succeed in this business. Read More

  • Organization: Dondero's Jewelry - Vineland, NJ
Since 1998, Performance Concepts has been a wonderful part of our business. Our initial contract for consulting services in the areas of human resource, training and operational management, specific to our goals and dreams, took our business from a $1.8 million store to a $3.9 million store as of 2003. ... But that was only a by-product of our real success. My partner and I now have systems and personnel in place that allow us to work on our business, not in it. We have time to plan, think, ponder and spend time with our families -- all while making more money! We can't think of a Performance Concepts product we haven't used over the years, or are currently using now. Performance Concepts will show you the way -- you just have to have the faith and foresight to follow them. Read More
