"We started working with Gary Furr, LLC in January of 2018 after a complete restructure of the company and showing a loss in our business for 2017. Since working with Gary he identified holes in our operation and helped redirect the company. In 2018 we have experienced a 112.3% increase in gross profit and a 1004.1% increase in net profit. Gary helped us to get our books up to speed and reduce our days to cash. Through his efforts we were able to increase our marketing efforts filling our sales funnel, adding new customers, getting our inventory on our balance sheet and increase throughput. We now have three new machines and two robots reducing payroll and increasing capacity by more than 60%. Gary has been an excellent resource for growing the company and really helped redirect my thinking on cash flow, being profitable and teaching me those skills I can use moving into the future. Gary has been instrumental in our organizational development and growth. Gary is a man with high integrity, I have always felt Gary has my back and I thoroughly trust him in all aspects of my business."

Ted Skipper/S3 Manufacturing

"When we hired Gary in May of 2015 we were on the verge of bankruptcy. Within six-months Gary turned the company around, paid down a significant amount of debt, as well as generating a small profit. By the end of 2016 we had a 335% increase in net profit and we continue to be profitable to this day. We could not have done it without Gary’s experience and knowledge."

Dr. Richard Baer/Baer Management

"When I first met Gary all I had was a business idea that sounded good on paper. Within four years we turned this idea into a nationwide multi-million-dollar business. We wouldn’t be here today without Gary’s wealth of knowledge and persistence for success."

Jonathon WolfeBarron, Rolling Adz / WolfeBarron Media

In October 2018 we had a team-training meeting performed by Gary Furr with Gary Furr, LLC. The topics covered by Mr. Furr were: having a clear direction of where we were going, creating a map on how we could bridge the gap between our current state and our desired future by utilizing 90-day goals, developing intense focus on our goals, the value of time, energy and money being limited resources and the need to use them wisely, the cost of interruptions on productivity and other topics that were pertinent to our needs. I am confidant that due to of Mr. Furr’s training and presentation we were able to meet our goals for 2018.

Amy Schmidt, Retirement Connection

When we first met with Gary, I was honestly skeptical of the cost of his services. We were losing money and looking at ways to save. But in less than a year we have more than earned back the cost of Gary’s services. Bringing Gary into our business has been one of the best investments we’ve ever made.
