We can help bring opportunities your way and help determine if a particular opportunity is the right fit for your business expansion.
Planning for an Exit Strategy: You have probably heard this before. “The day you start your business is the day you make plans to sell your business.” Savvy business owners know that to take advantage of opportunities, you must always be ready to act. That applies to exiting too! We all like to think we know what the future holds for us but reality sometimes has other plans. Done right, an exit plan brings a tremendous amount of stability to you, your family and employees. It makes your business worth more today. Doesn’t that make more sense than scrambling to correct years of mistakes or having to accept far less than what your business could be worth?
Due Diligence: An audit of business practices, policies, systems, employees, contracts, files and financials of a company is essential when buying or selling. Whether on your own company or a potential acquisition, an objective in-depth review can be a real eye opener. At Strandberg, we evaluate a multitude of things that impact the value of your business or the business you are acquiring to uncover the hidden gems and land mines that you might not even know to look for or evaluate. Continuous changes in technology, laws, taxes and the market can have a dramatic impact on business value. If you are contemplating selling, you need to know how a potential buyer will look at and evaluate your business before you get into negotiations or even put your business on the market.
Regulatory Compliance Review: Are you fully compliant with the laws and regulations that affect your operations? Things like proper three day right of rescission, automatic renewals, do not call, email opt out provisions, advertising requirements and Licensing required standards of practice are just some of the issues we look at. If there is any question, we can refer you to a qualified industry attorney to help you mitigate these risks.
Business Process Improvement: Using Lean and Six Sigma transactional process improvement methodologies, we can help improve your business processes, suggesting changes that reduce costs while improving customers’ experiences.
