We offer training and workshops for Chambers of Commerce and for their Cities. It is in everyone’s best interest to reach out and help all business owners survive and thrive.
One of our areas of specialization is cash flow and debt management and we have worked with consumers as well as homeowners. Since business owners are exposed to risk like never before, these same successful techniques have been adapted for you. As this new marketplace has been rapidly changing, our marketing programs have done likewise.
So the question we ask is: "How can we help?"
We will teach you how to play the game- the new game of business- and make your own rules!
We believe that this nation will recover from the ground up, one business at a time. And we must nurture their current successes, encourage new ventures, plus help all businesses grow, expand, and offer new job creation. Survive, Succeed and Excel is a slogan we live and teach by.
Our services help you with training and education at all levels. In these difficult times everyone is looking for answers, but many times what you need is perspective. We provide that along with other areas.
● Who we can help ●
Business owners
All businesses are affected by this current economy and we have never in our lives seen such a compounding of various challenges. We will diagnose and improve your number one dilemma right now: cash flow and debt issues. This may involve many areas starting with a thorough examination of profit and loss statements and balance sheets. In addition, did you know?:
- We can help lower your office rent and renegotiate your office lease. Landlords are willing to work with us but a third party is invaluable in negotiating this tricky area.
- One of our workshops is called "Renegotiate Everything" and you can!- if you know how. Do you have expensive leases on equipment, machinery, or furniture? Are there "cash flow" diamonds beneath your feet? We can help you unearth them.
- Do you have expensive equipment, machinery or own your own building? Cost Segregation may be an easy way to put tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars in accelerated depreciation tax dollars in your pocket now. Click here for our Special Report, or send us a note.
Through our relationships with SCORE, the Small Business Administration (SBA), their Small Business Development Associations (SBDA), various professional associations, and others, we can offer you channels of help in many different areas and are the liaison that connects them all.
Cities and Chambers of Commerce
Can your Chamber membership double over the next 12 months? Can you become a true “job creation” bank, and provide mentorship for your business owners? Would that make a difference?
Focus group meetings with business owners
You need to identify the issues that all of your business owners are encountering. Experience has shown us that there are few “new challenges”, just the same ones we have always had. The depth and speed with which these problems were encountered makes them particularly dangerous. We will open up a forum for them to share; they open up and feel relief that they are not alone and that you care and want to help.
We will work with whichever group you feel is best served at that time, and they will be customized to your needs. Your chambers or city’s participation is encouraged- and invited- and we will act as your arm's length, objective counselor to provide for the needs of those groups.
We can conduct all day or shorter workshops along with individualized and on-target meetings, and we will become your Trusted Adviser for all Council members looking for objective outside help.
How are other Chambers doing in these difficult times? If you'd like to read the results of the International Chamber of Commerce survey, click here and see if your membership numbers have followed the trends.
Lenders & Credit Unions
We can help the lending community, too, since much of this crisis is caused by poor lending decisions in addition to poor borrowing decisions. Our Lender Training classes will give guidance for your employees and for your clients to help create a smarter borrower which creates a loan less likely to fail.
