Our Services
Some of the consulting services we can provide to your business
Market Analysis
We compare the key success factors in your business with your competitors in your customer and prospects’ eyes. This can include all the things on offer to your customers… Range, Quality, Parking, Location, Aesthetics, Service, Layout, Branding
Pricing Analysis
Pricing is usually pretty crucial and we will assess where your business is at in relation to the market for opportunities… Comparing to others we will look for price change (rise/fall) opportunities for you.
Systems and Process Analysis
We’ll take a close look at how you do things system and process wise and look for better ways to do it. This can mean software you use or just the physical way work gets done round the place
Business Models
It’s one thing to have all the data somewhere on what people think and do, its often another thing to have that mean something to your core accounting and business software. We sort that out. We can build you the spreadsheets and databases/ interfaces to make this happen
Research
We utilise several of the most advanced surveying tools online including inhouse tools to deliver exacting results to help predict what will happen in future. Consumer experience and Staff experience are key here
Marketing and Ops Tools
There are many valuable tools (many free) that can help your operations and sales. But which ones will lead to problems for you and which will lead to better business? It all depends, we will find out
PAPER LIBERATION SPECIALISTS
Paper is the good old way of holding information, one further step in the evolution from carving or painting onto rocks.
It has its advantages sure, its easy on the eye, tactile and we can physically interact with it, catering to a basic human need.
Because its physical though, it consumes resources… like trees, space, money, landfill. All we really wanted was the information, not thing on which its held, yet its that thing which has the drawbacks. Actually all we really wanted was to do something useful with the information, enter the age of computers.
Upgrading everything to work on computers isn’t that easy, but neither is it that hard.
It all starts with a rationale for why you’d want to do this, then a game plan, then an implementation. Call us, lets see what can be done.
SOFTWARE EVALUATION
Are you thinking of adding new business software to fulfill a particular role or function?
Have you thought of all the things that can go wrong?
Will it technically do what needs to be done?
How will it interface into your existing systems?
How will it be set up?
Should you just try and piece together something from what you have already?
Code and data:
Should you host it “in the cloud” with a specialist host or provider, should you host it “in the cloud” with open source software that you control totally? Should it run on away from the net, on your own internal server?
Ask us, we can help if its a complex thing and you wouldn’t mind a 3rd party view
