About TPI-3
The Power of Inspiration, Imagination & Insight
Ideas come from somewhere.
Before there was something, or even a possibility for something, there was an idea, a "spark". That initial spark - to create something out of nothing - came from an inspiration, or an image formed only in a person's mind, or an insight that you drew from your own observations or experiences, or were able to draw out from others.
To innovate, or iterate, or set out to continually improve, these are all sound and beneficial objectives. However, it takes more than processes and practices to make transformative things happen - it starts with the spark of new ideas, that then get turned into new processes, new products and new ways of building your business.
At TPI-3, we help you come up with new ideas and develop them to gain the initial traction you need, to see those ideas take your business to where only you dare imagine it can be.
