When you are looking at buying an existing business it always pays to check that the business really is delivering the results that the owner says it is. Let us use our experience – both with accounts and business purchase - to help you check their numbers.
Buying a business is too important a decision to leave it to chance. Call before you go too far down the negotiation path, and make sure you know what you are looking at. After all, the rule is “Buyer Beware”.
Our aim is to ensure that your business achieves the potential that it's capable of. We have the know how and experience to offer advice to help you run your business more effectively.
An essential building block in enabling your business to achieve this potential is having full documentation of your in-house procedures and the processes they are part of. This also provides "insurance" should key personnel be away - as other team members can keep their tasks ticking over.
The process of mapping your systems in this way highlights areas where there is lack of clarity - about who is responsible for what, or even how it should be done. It also provides opportunities to both clarify these issues and streamline your processes - to support the business as it now stands, rather than when the way to do a task was first determined.
This is also a very important step to take when considering implementing a new business software package

Franchising has proven to be one of the more successful ways for people to get into business for the first time, with the proven brand and systems assisting them to establish a strong business from early on.
It has also been used very successfully to grow small businesses into larger ones - by getting other people on board to extend your services geographically – nationally or internationally.
We have many clients who are franchisees – running their own franchise business as part of the overall group. Other also clients who are franchisors – they’ve bought the rights, or had the idea or the business to extend this way. Yes, we’ve helped them right from the beginning.
Have you got an idea or business you think could be grown this way? Do you want to become involved in one of these franchises?
Call us and let us use our experience to assist you.

As you first start a business, or even buy one, it’s easy to do something a certain way (perhaps the easiest way at the time), then keep on doing it that way thereafter. Yet it may not by the best way. It may even have flow-on effects that block you from growing the business, as you want to.
This may be the way something is done in the factory, the office or even out on the road. It may be the layout of your office or factory, or it may be elsewhere (e.g. marketing). Usually it is hidden from those working in the business.
Our team of business professionals has a depth of knowledge about systems, structures, and operations. So why not book us in to perform an appraisal of your business?

Now that you’ve got you business plan, it’s time to make it happen, to really drive your business into top gear. But life gets busy, things happen, and it’s easy to let things slip. Just a little at a time, until you find that you’ve really made no progress at all – if you even notice.
It’s because we know how easily that this can happen that we offer this service. We come in – as often as you want, over the period of the business plan – to help you keep on the track you’ve set for yourself. It’s always good to have someone to hold yourself accountable to, or even just to help you be accountable to yourself.
And of course you can take advantage of our visits to use us as a sounding board for anything else that comes up in your business.
Usually, when you develop your business plan there will be areas requiring work that you don’t have the resource/experience/skills to do. Or maybe you do, but the business just gets too busy, and you don’t have time to keep parts of your business plan ticking over. We are happy to use our expertise to assist you.
Driving change through in a business always takes time, and we are happy to help in any way we can so you can achieve your dreams.
