WMSI also provides on-going individual coaching and consulting, as well as corporate programs.
WMSI contracts with the client to achieve a mutually agreed upon goal, for a fixed fee upfront, and then continues to work with the client until that goal is achieved.

Comparison to Similar Businesses
Other sales training and coaching companies charge for specific events, including seminars and specific classes; or they charge a set fee that allows the client to attend classes for a specific length of time. WMSI contracts to work with the client until he/she achieves a mutually agreed upon goal. Results Guaranteed™ resonates with CEOs and business owners that have spent money on training in the past, with no tangible results to show for it.
The weekly, one-on-one coaching with a private coach is a key component in a successful business, and is a major differentiator between WMSI and other training companies.
This is a franchise. The independent operator is purchasing the marketing rights to a protected territory and the usage of the Black Belt System™. He retains complete operational control of his business.
WMSI is very selective in choosing who will be permitted to obtain a territory. WMSI seeks to build long-term relationships with its operators by making them successful and eliminating turnover.
There are no required inventory of product manuals.
The material is new and incorporates the best ideas from the latest sales and marketing processes in the industry. Other than the stipulated monthly fee, there are no other revenue splits between the operator and WMSI.
