Business Consulting

Business consulting is an industry in which someone who has significant business knowledge and acumen works closely with a business owner and their team to improve financial and operational performance. Businesses and business owners need consulting services to supplement their own knowledge. You, as a business owner, are an expert in your own niche market and the processes you have built to serve that market. Business consultants are experts in improving existing businesses and can pull expertise from a much broader range of sources.

As consultants, our teams look at a couple of hundred businesses every year. We’re into a lot of businesses on a regular basis, and we learn a lot. We can bring a great deal of objectivity to most businesses precisely because we are outside, looking in. We usually see things differently than most owners do. A new perspective can help you to increase revenue, improve profitability, and/or reduce expenses dependent on the inefficiencies discovered.

If you have a problem that you don’t know how to solve, your business could need consulting services. One of the key opportunities provided by bringing in outside help to address a problem is that your consultant will view the business from a very different perspective than you do. They will be able to identify solvable problems that you may have become accustomed to and will generate creative solutions for any concerns identified.

Yes! While Robbinex does not provide business plans, we are experienced in helping businesses grow to meet their potential. As consulting intermediaries, we have helped business owners in a variety of industries design a growth plan through mergers, acquisitions, and strategic activity to attract growth support, such as additional financing. A Confidential Strategic Assessment, one of our service offerings, is a strong first step in determining business growth strategies and expansion plans as it will give you a clear picture of your current situation from a new perspective.

Yes, this is one of the core purposes of consulting services. With context from you and your team, we can assist you in identifying business challenges and proposing solutions. If you agree with the course of action, we can also support you in the implementation of corrective actions. For problems that will take longer to address, you may consider the Advisory Council option, where we work closely with your accountant and lawyer to create a team of individuals to support the improvement of the organization.

All Robbinex team members have been trained on the importance of maintaining strict confidentiality and our processes are designed to protect your business from sensitive information leakage while working with our firm. Before you share any confidential information with us, we will provide you with a confidentiality agreement to sign and return that will protect and apply to both parties.

The length of a business consulting engagement is completely dependent on the type of business problem that we are trying to address and the budget for the project. The process can take as little as 10 hours or upwards of 400, but those hours could be spread out over any length of time.
