A New Generation of Innovation
Roger Ross, President and founder of Babson Consulting, Inc., located in Manchester, CT has information in his blood. As great grandson of the famous Roger Babson, founder of Babson College and the investment information firm Babsons Reports (currently Babson-United, Inc.), Roger Ross continues in the family tradition, making information accessible to business. Roger’s Babson Consulting, however, specializes in helping businesses use their own information to accelerate business results.

From the Rust Belt
Where Roger and the president of a major rolling mill elevated disgruntled employees into the modern world of advanced technology. After six failures at automating their workflow, employees were convinced it couldn’t be done. But, Roger showed them how, along with delivering impressive efficiency gains, eliminating double entry, and interfacing with their production system. Read case study…

To the Exotic
Where Roger created a revolutionary solution for tour operators, enabling small tour operators to finally compete in the wholesale tour marketplace, and achieve unprecedented business efficiencies along the way. Read case study…

To the Spiritual
Where he automated an amazing church. Everything was tracked manually, from clothing to fire trucks, Roger equipped this visionary minister with tools to track complete warehouses of donated goods shipped all around the world. Here stewardship and technology combined to make a huge difference for tens of thousands of people. Read case study…

Delivering Information that Makes a Difference
Recently, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Roger on a Profit Method project for Senior Resource Center, Inc. in Quincy, Mass. We expect astounding results from that effort and, hopefully, it will soon be the subject of its own case study. But Babson Consulting already has an impressive list of widely successful projects over a range of businesses.

I expected to be teaching Roger the principles and steps of the Profit Method but it wasn’t much of a class. For years, Roger has been using a process very similar to the Profit Method and with great success for his customers.

Large or small business, it doesn’t seem to matter. These principles work for any business time and again delivering impressive results with both low risk and low cost.
