A Scaling Up Case Study
Cougar USA, a Houston-based provider of water-control solutions, faced a significant growth plateau and was unable to increase its revenue for several years despite reinvesting in the business. To address this challenge, President Tim Zacharias turned to the vendor Scaling Up, beginning with their online assessment and subsequently working with one of their certified coaches.
By implementing the Scaling Up methodology and tools, including the One-Page Strategic Plan, the company redesigned its hiring process, established clear financial goals, and improved cash flow strategies. As a result of working with Scaling Up, Cougar USA more than doubled its revenue from $10.5 million to over $23 million, exceeding its long-term goal ahead of schedule while also improving its bottom-line profits.
