Business Planning

"You know how most businesses owners and managers have a problem with knowing how their business is performing and what needs to be done to move it forward and improve profitability and cash flow?"

"Which means that they may not know what the costs are in certain crucial areas of the business and how these are affecting profitability and cash flow, and they have be advised by someone who has never actually run a business of their own and are unsure about how to improve profits and cash within the business"

"What we do is work with you to produce a robust business plan and cash flow forecast and to make sure it has been tailored to the specific needs of your business, whether it is for viewing by the other Directors or shareholders, bank or other funder, or for use in a prospectus if your are planning to sell your company"

"Which means that you get a full understanding of the areas of your business which might need specific attention to improve profitability, and it is a plan of where your business is going in the future. This company specific plan can be used to meet with your bank or other funder to give them a detailed understanding of where your business is heading"

Case Study - Strategic Planning -

The client was a member of a diversified industrial group of companies around Preston, Chorley, Warrington and Manchester. There was a Divisional structure in place, with businesses manufacturing products, complimentary to the footwear manufacturing industry. The client company manufactured rubber and plastics moulding compounds used in soles and heels. Also within that Division were companies manufacturing soling sheeting in rubber and leather, together with plastics heels. Within other Divisions companies were manufacturing adhesives and coated fabrics used in footwear, as well as other industries worldwide. To develop an enhanced corporate image, and brand, to large footwear manufacturers world-wide, and India and Asia in particular, one of the team of Perrite Business Advisers brought these companies together, from different divisions, to market themselves as a large group able to supply all the materials required by worldwide footwear manufacturers. A new corporate image, and brand, for this grouping was developed and a marketing plan produced, which included advertising in worldwide journals and exhibiting as a group, whilst still maintaining the individual identities of the individual companies, at major exhibitions in Hong Kong and Europe. This produced a major synergistic benefit for the combined group, and as well as growing sales for the individual companies directly, sales distributors were appointed to develop new export sales for the combined grouping.
