Ashington Business Advisory

Business Structures & Strategic Planning
Careful planning and coordination is needed to achieve a successful outcome in business. We can help you develop an effective business plan. Our support often looks past the company to the owner’s asset protection, financial management, wealth creation planning, intellectual property management and security, tax, succession planning, compliance (acting according to certain accepted standards) and governance (a method and system of management) and the numerous issues we face every day. Our Financial Procedures Health Check can improve your financial reporting so you can better manage business risk.

 

Essential & Strategic Marketing

We offer a broad range of sales and marketing advice: how to attract and retain customers, target markets and manage clients better, how to promote, where to advertise, how to measure effectiveness of your sales and marketing efforts, what is good public relations, networking and customer service. Who are your most profitable customers, what influences their purchasing decisions, how to attract the right customers and convert into sales. The development of a strategic marketing plan will give you the answers and is essential for any company’s growth and prosperity.

We can help coordinate selection of an advertising agency, work closely with your existing sales and marketing people and bring to the table a fresh approach to help you grow.

Sourcing capital to grow your business can be a daunting and time consuming task. Who has it and how to get it? We can assist to project manage the process from start to completion including State and Federal business grants.

Directorships, Board Policies and Procedures

Why have a Board? At what stage should you establish a Board or increase its size? Where do you start and what should you expect? A non-executive director is a director who is not employed by the company in an executive position.

With real advice and support, our aim is to enable clients to make decisions with confidence.
