Business Assessments
Find out what’s working and what isn’t
If business results are not meeting expectations, the causes are not always immediately clear. A business assessment is a helpful tool to find out what’s working and what needs to be fixed about your organization.
Our comprehensive business evaluation is a quick and affordable way to find out what your strengths and weaknesses are and where improvements need to be made.
Building on our business consulting experience in B2B, we bring an independent perspective to the assessment process. You can have confidence that we’ll give you our candid, unbiased opinion about the state of your firm.
In addition to any specific areas that you may have identified, the comprehensive business checkup looks at many facets of your business, such as:
- Goals and objectives
- Financials
- Products
- Diversification
- Markets
- Differentiation
- SWOT and PESTLE
- Competitors
- Suppliers
- Trends
- Sales & marketing
- Organization
- Processes
- Personnel issues
Benefits of a Business Assessment
A comprehensive diagnostic of your business strategies, operations, and processes provides a number of benefits, such as:
We'll make recommendations about which areas of the business need attention and what should get fixed. You can then make informed decisions about what to do next.
The business checkup is also a great starting point for comprehensive Strategic Planning or the development of competitive Marketing Strategies.
The Business Assessment is designed to be affordable and produce quick results.
Even if you implement only some of our recommendations, you'll get a real ROI.
We give you the good and the bad, without bias. We call it the way we see it.
Only this way do you get the valuable feedback needed to make the necessary changes to your firm.
Our fresh perspective permits us to ask probing questions and challenge the status quo to find out what's really going on.
As "outsiders" looking in, we're not constrained by office politics, corporate culture, or Not-Invented-Here attitudes.
Since a business assessment has a clearly defined scope and timeline the risks of scope-creep, time and budget overruns are reduced. A business assessment is a short duration, quick turnaround project.
The onsite portion of the assessment can usually be completed in a few days, depending on the size and complexity of the organization and the issues that need to be explored.
Including preparation, analysis, follow-up questions, and developing the recommendations, an entire business checkup can typically be completed in just a few weeks.
Our business assessment is designed to give you useful feedback. Even if you implement only some of our recommendations you’ll get a real ROI on your investment.
