We Start with a Deep Dive into Your Financials

We don't just guess; we analyze. Our first step is to get a clear picture of where your money is going.

  • Comprehensive Expense Review: We'll meticulously go through your past spending, analyzing every dollar. This includes looking at your day-to-day operating costs, the cost of the products or services you deliver, administrative expenses, and even your marketing spend. We aim to understand every recurring cost and identify areas where your money might be leaking unnecessarily.

  • Vendor and Contract Scrutiny: We'll review your vendor contracts and invoices with a fine-tooth comb. We're looking for opportunities to renegotiate terms, spot any overpayments, or identify if you're paying for services you no longer fully utilize. Our team has years of hands-on experience leading projects to analyze outstanding invoices and performing outreach to vendors to ensure proper recording of liabilities.

  • Debt Portfolio Analysis: We'll break down all your existing debt – lines of credit, loans, credit cards – to understand the full picture. We'll examine interest rates, repayment terms, and any associated conditions to give you a clear overview of your obligations. Our team also has experience handling complex financial obligations like recording letters of credit draws during bankruptcy proceedings and collaborating with Treasury to assess their validity and accounting treatment.

  • Cash Flow Assessment: We look at how cash flows in and out of your business to pinpoint any bottlenecks or areas where your cash might be tied up, hindering your ability to invest or manage operations smoothly.

We Develop a Tailored Strategy for Savings and Control

Once we have a clear understanding, we build a strategic plan designed specifically for your business to reduce expenses and manage debt effectively.

  • Uncovering Cost-Saving Opportunities: We work to identify tangible ways to cut costs. This could involve renegotiating terms with your current suppliers, exploring more cost-effective alternative vendors, or leveraging volume discounts. We also look at your internal operations to find efficiencies that can reduce spending, such as streamlining administrative processes or optimizing inventory.

  • Strategic Debt Management: We'll help you create a smart plan for tackling your debt. This includes advising you on which debts to prioritize based on their impact on your business, exploring options to refinance existing debt at lower rates, or, if necessary, helping you develop strategies for restructuring your debt with creditors.

  • Aligning Spending with Your Business Goals: We'll ensure your expense and debt strategies align with your overall business objectives, putting your money where it can generate the most value.
