Areas of Expertise
Trading difficulties
With over 30 years of experience in turnarounds, insolvency and restructuring, we can bring a fresh, detached and independent perspective to the challenges that your business might be facing. We can craft a roadmap to success and work with you to execute it. More importantly, we have done it before - many times.
STRATEGIC CROSSROADS
We have long experience in multiple industries across multiple countries; we can bring a fresh perspective when you are faced with key strategic decisions that will shape the future development of your business
DEBT RESTRUCTURING & CREDITOR PRESSURE
We have handled this before, many times and have found that bringing in an independent third party professional will often be welcomed by bankers, creditors and other lenders.
sale or disposal
We have many years of experience on both sides of acquisitions and disposals - we are an experienced guide who can help lead you through what can be a tedious, stressful and emotional process. If you are looking to retire and are considering a sale of your business, or if you are looking to exit for any other reason, including trading difficulties, we maintain a network of potential purchasers that may be interested in discussing a purchase with you.
DUE DILIGENCE
Die Diligence is a critical process in the acquisition of a business, or the creation of a new partnership or joint venture. We can help you obtain and analyze the data you need to move forward
Recurring Services
MONTHLY StratEGIC AUDITS
Sometimes it can be difficult to see the wood for the trees, as the challenges of running a business can devour our waking hours, causing us to miss vital indicators because we are just too close to the action.. We offer a monthly strategic audit, in which we take a deep dive into your numbers and provide you with a detailed report that summarizes the changes we see in all of your key ratios month on month and highlights any areas that need attention. An independent and detached view can be extremely valuable
ANNUAL STRATEGIC AUDIT
The same principle as the monthly audit, but this looks at your full year's financial statements and provides you with a detailed report that summarizes the changes we see in all of your key ratios year on year and highlights any areas that need attention, together with insights and comparative data from your industry and competitive landscape.
social media
If you want to establish and maintain a social media presence for your business but you don't have the time or knowledge to do it, let one of our digiital marketing associates handle it for you
