Adam Kaplan is a Certified EOS Implementer with EOS Worldwide, helping entrepreneurs get more of what they want from their businesses.
Adam has seen the highs and lows of entrepreneurship.
The low - 2001. The economy turns, and the fast-growing company he’s working for closes virtually overnight.
The high - 2011. Adam helped run and sell a fast-growing dental services business to a Private Equity firm for a great price.
Next, Adam started his own recruiting company and was struggling to gain Traction in it - until a client introduced him to EOS.
Adam doubled business in three years under EOS.
He then brought EOS into another company, which doubled its customers in one year.
