Our clients encompass a wide range of industries. One thing they do share in common, though, is a desire to be the best. The Business Intervention Group can help make that happen. We work with our clients, discovering their unique needs and listening to what they want. And, then, we share our own thoughts and strategy in a clear, concise manner. The result: Projects that exceed the goals and expectations of our clients.

Here are some examples:
CHALLENGE
A client just bought out their partner and was struggling with the added debt and cash requirements. They wanted to sell or merge with an older, more established company.

ADVICE
We suggested they look at their company as a reverse merger candidate. Take advantage of its younger sales and management people to keep the business growing. Combine them with the more established company with an older group who had plenty of cash flow but reduced sales projections.

RESULT
Five year reverse purchase by client company guaranteed older people retirement through new and younger management.

CHALLENGE
A premier manufacturer of seasonal sporting goods products had cash and workflow problems because their business was slow four to six months per year.
ADVICE
Suggested they research for another sporting goods product and marketed the product line during the typical off-season. This way they can use their trained people and manufacturing facilities during the off-season to produce another product line.
RESULT
A new off-season product helped smooth out manufacturing process and reduce production down periods. Added sales offset overhead enough to increase company profits significantly.

CHALLENGE
Two partners in a successful service business were arguing about compensation and contributions to their business.

ADVICE
We met with each partner separately to define the issues that were threatening the business. Came up with a viable compensation plan for both individuals.

RESULT
Five years after this problem was recognized and resolved, the partners sold their business for well over 15 times it's EBITA.

CHALLENGE
Client had just repurchased partners’ interest. Business was growing and cash/management issues were overwhelming. Client thought the answer was for him to sell and get out from under all growth (cash) problems.

ADVICE
Discussed with client his target acquirer and discovered they were the answer to many of his problems. They had cash and management with a declining business.

RESULT
Our client purchased the acquirer over a long-term deal with the use of that company’s capital and management structure. Total company was 5 million in sales originally, now company is close to 20 million in sales.

CHALLENGE
A growing wind energy company needed a better accounting function.

ACTION
We provided them with a controller that fit their needs and developed a plan to prepare for their first audit.

RESULT
Accounting function was established and endured until an energy company from Spain purchased the company.

CHALLENGE
A manufacturer of tennis racquets lost control of its costs due to bad tracking of foreign exchange rate changes.

ACTION
We established a control system that required timely reporting of transaction and foreign exchange rate changes.

RESULT
Company re-established reporting of manufacturing costs and increased profits substantially.

CHALLENGE
A business owner embarked on a retail expansion without having bank financing in place. The owner did not appreciate what information the bank needed to evaluate in order to approve funding, and he did not understand the time necessary for the bank to arrive at a decision.

ACTION
Since the owner had alienated his existing bank to the point that they could not provide the financing quickly enough (if at all), we took the company to other banks to garner the financing and move the entire relationship.

RESULT
We were able to prepare a three-year financial plan for the banks, which included an analysis of the existing situation and the planned growth along with all the financing necessary to provide for the long term and short term financing needs.
