I Am Worried
Is my business telling me it is hurting?
Is it asking where the Boss is? Or wondering if the Boss has tried everything? Revenues continue to decline. There seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel. What Is he doing to get us back on track? Does this worry ‘ring any bells’ for you? If it does do not feel you are alone, it seems to be a common concern among business owners today.
This is an incredibly challenging time for us all! The pain seems to increase week by week. With more uncertainties emerging each day, it has become ever more difficult to know what will work best ‘Tomorrow’ or even what actions to take to deal with the problems of today. We can help you navigate the challenges you face; we have done this before.
What things have you tried?
Changing marketing and sales strategies, pricing plans, developing product improvements, launching new products? The list can seem endless. We have worked with companies that had tried some or a mix of these changes and failed but we guided them back to success. We have been hired as advisors to companies with flat revenues and declining margins and uncovered new ways for them to succeed by identifying and driving increases from improvements through to their bottom line. And we can help you be successful again as well.
We have advised businesses how to address challenging times, whether at the business, strategic or economic level; through identifying and introducing synergistic programs which benefit both the business and its stakeholders, or by providing a ‘fresh eye’ and the resources to get this done right the first time and on time.
Here are 3 examples
By adopting a sharper process on practices with a deliberate focus on monitoring revenues, profit, and business growth; the owner identified and corrected blips, dips and captured surges as they happened and developed a deeper understanding of the whys. He learned that growing revenues and the profit improvement from them can come from more than just increasing sales. Many other sources of incremental margin were harnessed including improved operational and business practices; incorporating a stronger focus on strategic planning, identifying risks not on P&L and other business statements; adding the development of medium and longer-term goals with clearly defined and purpose driven operating plans that aligned and leveraged human and financial capital.
There was a business with a low 20% profit margin, plus an unsophisticated staff and advisors which led the owner to recruit our services. Together we increased his business value from $15million to $25million thereby optimizing it prior to him stepping down; Results? He regained the retirement he thought he had lost. How? We added an incremental $10million to his bottom line. Disclosure; our results ordinarily ‘only’ get 40X to 100x return on our advisory cost from the enhancements we bring to the overall business value, revenues and its growth momentum.
An $18million uptick in annual sales revenues was gained for a company by simply coaching the owner to impose and integrate a clearer purpose with longer term strategic goals in mind which generated sustainable incremental revenues.
