Consulting Firm Specializes in Creating Monopolies

    LOUISVILLE, KY, June 19, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sherlock & Zen, LLC is a consulting firm, specializing in helping businesses create a lucrative niche. According to its president, Dr. Mark Dillof, "A clearly defined niche acts as a monopoly, freeing a company from direct competition. And the nice thing is that it's all perfectly legal!"

Dr. Dillof contends that a company can acquire a niche by designing a product or service that satisfies unmet consumer demands. Of course, they must act before their competitor do. And this is true of everything from restaurants to professional practices. He states, "Quite often a company is sitting on a potential goldmine, without even realizing it. Sadly enough, many a company could have been highly successful had they made just a slight modification to their existing products or services. Our consulting firm helps companies create these modifications." But Dr. Dillof also argues that sometimes a company can create a niche by inventing a product where a demand doesn't yet exist. Apple's iPhone is a case in point. To do that sort of thing requires a wild leap of imagination.

Why the name, "Sherlock & Zen"? Dr. Dillof states that, "Sherlock Holmes embodies powerful analytical thinking, while Zen Buddhism is known for holistic intuition. When you combine penetrating analysis with imaginative intuition, you get powerful insights, the type of insights, or epiphanies, necessary if you are to make great discoveries in business and in life."

As part of his consulting practice, Dr. Dillof offers philosophical seminars to companies, designed to increase their understanding of themselves and their customers. www.wonderseminars.com. Dr. Dillof contends that his creative insights come from having seen life from a multiplicity of perspectives. He has written several books on philosophy and psychology, and taught these subjects as a college professor He has also been a psychotherapist, a stockbroker, a professional magician, a bartender, a real estate tax assessor, and of course a management consultant. Sherlock & Zen's motto is "Cherchez le creneau," which is French for "Find the hole, gap, or niche, and fill it." More information about the company can be found at www.sherlockzen.com.
