Mission and Vision Statement
Creation or refinement of what your company stands for, who your customers are, and what success looks like to you.
Branding and Market Analysis
A researched comparison of your organization’s products and services versus your competitors
3 Year Strategic Plan and 1 Year Operating Plan
What are your short and medium term objectives? Let’s build a SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, realistc, and time-bound) roadmap. We will perform a SWOT analysis, identify potential bottlenecks and Key dependencies, and will create a play book (operating plan) for the next 12 months.
Budget and Financial Documents Creation
Money talks! Let us reveal insights to your organization’s current state, strengths, and potential vulnerabilities. You will also receive a user-friendly balance sheet, statement of profit and loss, and cash flow analysis that you can continue to update in the future.
Review of Financial Performance and Activity-based Accounting
How healthy is your organization? We will review your financials (even if they are not tidy!), identify trends and provide our projections, and will walk you through which of your products and services are most profitable –you may be surprised!– and what your most competitive mix is.
Overview of Operations and Process Improvement Recommendations
A fresh set of eyes can identify processes that you have down to a science and where you can improve. We will provide suggestions to save you time and money and will enable you to best use the resources you have– including those you haven’t discovered yet.
Creation of Procedures, Data Tracking, Management Reports, and Key Performance Indicators
It’s risky to house vital organizational knowledge solely in the minds of team members. Let us put them down on paper; when you expand or experience turnover you won’t have to reinvent the wheel. We will also create reporting tools that provide management with the insight and supervision they need to measure performance, view historical data, and make future predictions.
Human Resources Coaching and Performance Improvement
We know how to motivate, get the most and best effort out of team members, and how to ensure that every employee has a plan for continued professional development (Hint: it starts with asking the right questions and being a good listener.) We start with a 30-minute call or meeting with the supervisor and will need a current job description (or we can create one) for each employee we are engaged to coach.
Change Management and Implementation of Process Improvement
Change can be hard for everyone, but for different reasons. Many of our clients have been frustrated by resistance or comments such as, “But we’ve always done it xyz way.” Let us identify, address, and remove obstacles to change.
Follow-up
Continuing to utilize new tools is paramount to reaching the goals identified in the initial consultation. We recommend once a month check-ins for one fiscal quarter. These can be in person or scheduled phone calls.
Materials Design
We are happy to provide complimentary branding, website, and other design element referrals to accompany our services.
The Fine Print
We will bring a confidentiality agreement to our first meeting and pledge to respect the potential sensitivity of all organizational information.
Fees for services must be paid half up front. You will receive an invoice for the remainder when services have been completed, with 30-day payment terms. Unfortunately we cannot make any exceptions. We appreciate your understanding.
