STRATEGY CONSULTING
We work with companies of all sizes, from startup to large multinationals, in every industry to develop strategies that will deliver results and create value.
For early stage companies, we help entrepreneurs and management teams develop strategies for value creation and sustainable growth. In addition, we help them develop and explain their strategies to investors, venture capitalists, and private equity groups.
For established companies, we help optimize existing strategies as well as develop new strategies for sustainable growth and to increase value.
We add value by:
- Offering a broad perspective that allows us to offer new and innovative solutions.
- Finding things that were overlooked or not thoroughly explored.
- Knowing how to create value.
- Suggesting growth strategies that work and are sustainable.
- Working collaboratively with people within the business.
Our strategy consulting focuses on a number of areas:
- Corporate Strategy – Every business, from a startup to a large multinational, needs to determine its goals and objectives and the actions necessary to achieve them. We help either develop the initial strategies or refine existing strategies to achieve the goals and objectives and maximize the value of the business.
- Business Plans – A strategic plan is critical to the success of any business. It is necessary for a business and its investors to understand its path and roadmap. A business plan includes development of the goals and objectives, problem being solved or market needs being met, marketing analysis, competitor assessment, marketing plan, operating plan, and financial plan. For large and mid-size mature companies, we help revise their existing plans to ensure that their goals and objectives are met.
- We can develop a plan for early stage companies to present to investors, venture capitalists, and private equity groups. The plans that we develop are intended to be used as guiding documents for running businesses.
- Planning Process – We either create new planning processes or refine existing planning processes utilizing all the current techniques and best practices in order to have a planning process that is useful, efficient, and effective. In addition, the process must not impose a burden on management’s time or on other company resources.
- Growth Strategy – About 10 – 15% of companies succeed in achieving sustained growth. Growth can stall because of a number of reasons. We help companies achieve growth by focusing on their core strengths and strategies to take advantage of their strengths. We also determine how best to utilize and maximizes resources to achieve maximum growth.
- Business Unit Strategy – We help develop effective strategies for business units that are congruent with the overall corporate strategy.
- Linking of Budgets and Tactics to Strategy – For a plan to be effective, budgets and tactics need to be developed that are linked to the long term strategy. Because of a changing environment and business conditions, sometimes strategies and tactics need to be changed. In certain industries or markets, the businesses need to be agile and change when conditions dictate. We can help a company become agile and have a process that is flexible.
