I have personally analyzed nearly 36,000 privately held small and medium sized businesses in a vast number of industries and sectors across North America over the past 20 years. I have coached and directed clients on strategy, planning, and problem solving as well as helping clients develop business skills and knowledge.
These topics range from designing a business model for predetermined profit which often includes a marketing plan, proactive measurement and management over gross margin, labor productivity, budgeting and control of overhead, as well as understanding and use of break-even sales volume as a competitive tool. Also determining which marketing techniques to use and how to use them. I'll often help clients learn how to plan and implement projects. As a small business analyst, I give advice, teach skills, and brainstorm with the client to produce practical results and enhance strategic thinking.
