The Business Clinic - Edmonton, Alberta

We met with a valued business client in Canada. We met with another valued relationship we have with another business in California. Both had similar remarks and private messages regarding Sarkis that they allowed me to read. They asked me not to write this review, but the messages were so incredulously inflammatory -- it's unfair not to share their experience with Sarkis.

We all approach business differently.
We all come from different backgrounds.
We all onboard clients differently.
We all have different business models.
Perhaps as thorough as we all are -- we aren't perfect and there's something that we might forget.

We're human.
We all have our strengths.
We have hurried days with timelines to meet and pressures.

But the inflammatory messages from Sarkis to our most valued partners that we've worked with for so long -- it's just unthinkable.

Some of us when we're upset, we release rage.
Some of us when we're upset, we step away, and come back to seek resolution.

Some of us, bring in a third party, to create neutrality.
But the messages from Sarkis, which I asked permission to have a copy of -- is not communications that should come from a leader in business [even when upset].

Sarkis, you crossed the line, and you went personal and way below the belt.

Be encouraged to seek understanding.
Be encouraged to know that you're not the most knowledgeable person in your field.

We had your work checked and reviewed.
I've taken the courtesy to apologize for the dagger of your words Sarkis.

Be mindful that written messages are passed on to other business owners and business leaders.

Respectfully shared.
And small business clients we know in your area, we will pay, pro bono, for them to use another agency.

I had a wonderful experience dealing with The Business Clinic. As a first time small business owner I found the task of marketing, branding and website design to be overwhelming. Sarkis was able to take all of my notes, ideas, and vision for my company and turn it into a professional, clear first impression to give my clients.
I would highly recommend The Business Clinic to anyone who is starting out.

Prior to working with The Business Clinic, I had no idea how to market myself. I knew how to practice psychology, but reaching those who want help was not in my graduate programs. The Business Clinic helped to improve my website, get my business listed online, and used Google Ads to attract potential clients. The Business Clinic helped me focus on my sessions with clients because they were taking care of getting my services out to the community. That was a big relief.

Sarkis is very easy to work with. He is knowledgeable, professional, and follows through with what we discussed. The best thing about Sarkis was that he put my mind at ease about the business aspect and let me focus on the services I provide for clients. I would recommend The Business Clinic to others who are trying to balance running a business while also providing services. It takes a team to launch a business and The Business Clinic was what I needed to jump start it.

I wasn’t thinking about having a website, but wanted my business to be visible. After discussions with Sarkis, I learned about the value of building a website to promote my business. Sarkis has an ability to understand what his clients want and need. I’m not as experienced in writing in English or in marketing, but Sarkis has done thorough research and written great content for my website. The best thing about working with him is you don’t need to worry about anything related to marketing. I have contacted other marketing people before The Business Clinic, but they didn’t provide as much value. The best part about working with The Business Clinic is that they see and understand the needs of your business and create a customized marketing strategy accordingly.

I wanted to start my own private practice but didn’t know where to begin. Sarkis is extremely personable and he understood my vision from the very beginning. He was able to teach and support me through all the steps that I needed for a successful launch of my business. I always feel like I learn a ton of things after meeting with him and, not only that, he is truly inspiring to talk to! I wholeheartedly recommend his services if you’re looking to launch or boost your business.

As a new business, one of our biggest challenges was creating an appealing brand and marketing this brand. The Business Clinic was able to create a beautiful brand for us - they designed our logo, website, brochure, marketing materials, letterheads, etc. We could not have done all of these without them. It was great for us not to have to worry about branding and marketing and be able to focus on other areas of our operations. It was such a delight working with Sarkis. First, he is very knowledgeable in marketing strategies, and we learned a lot from him. He pays a lot of attention to detail, which we absolutely love; his communication is great, he responds to our enquiries/concerns in a timely manner, and he is such a great people person. It's a pleasure working with him. If you need a company that can create a beautiful brand and market it it to your target audience, then I would recommend The Business Clinic. I will continue to work with them and will never hesitate to recommend them.

When we approached The Business Clinic, we had a number of problems that we went through in detail. They listened and provided a great plan that empowered our business strategies and tactics. Our first step was to learn from our clients. The Business Clinic conducted a client satisfaction survey to learn about our clients and their pain points. This provided us with meaningful insights to position our marketing strategy effectively to resonate with our target market. The Business Clinic was then able to implement marketing tactics, such as a new brand identity, website design and a content marketing plan, that resonates with our target market.

Working with Sarkis was unique; he has great energy, is an attentive listener and is very focused. What I really enjoyed about working with Sarkis was his insight and understanding of our business process at each layer and being able to educate us on how each of those layers influence our overall strategy for growing our marketing. He’s a marketing genius! I really enjoy working with Sarkis because he’s very client focused; it’s always a pleasure speaking with him. We’re very happy and grateful to have a partnership with The Business Clinic.

Sarkis is extremely thorough and professional to work with. He helped us to stay on an efficient timeline and anticipated all of our business' needs. Sarkis knows his stuff and is a pleasure to be around. Would certainly recommend to anyone starting from the ground up in business planning and development!
