Services
We help our partners to make use of this indispensable tool in defining a business strategy, taking advantage of the leading models and techniques of business management.
We are firm believers in the Business Model Canvas, a strategic tool that promotes visual thinking in order to analyse how a business creates, distributes, and retains value.
The Business Model Canvas, with its AS-IS and TO-BE iterations, provides a strategic view and a rational view and involves the combined study of 9 essential keys to its success: Customer Segment, Value Proposition, Channels, Customer Relationship, Revenue Streams, Key Resources, Key Activities, Key Partnership, and Cost Structures.
Business Planning
We prepare and monitor complete tools of strategy planning together with our partners, helping them to visualise the economic and financial sustainability of a business venture. We also accurately and analytically map out the road to actual achievement of the strategic objective defined in the business model.
The resulting Business Plan is an essential process in critically assessing a proposed venture, including for the financial planning and the sustainability of the financing to be raised.
Strategic Benchmark Analysis
We prepare reports of fundamental importance to management, which help to identify and understand the best practices and other critical success factors of other organisations, so as to grasp their implications and skilfully adapt them to the specific traits of the Business Model in order to enhance business performance.
This Benchmark Analysis enables businesses to identify the performance standards that need to be measured in order to determine where there may be qualitative or quantitative gaps.
Financing
We facilitate effective relationships with lenders and provide the tools and skills needed in order to understand how they evaluate a business. This enables our partners to reduce the cost of financing or obtain greater lines of credit.
Knowing ahead of time the results of an independent valuation and comparing that with a lender’s valuation of a business gives our clients greater negotiating power and enables them to determine the right forms of financing to receive, so as to improve their overall rating.

Corporate Storytelling
Storytelling is a fundamental tool in the governance of marketing, communication, strategic analysis, human resource development and management, and even product design.
Telling a credible corporate story means adopting a strategic model that can engage, transform, disseminate knowledge, and generally add value to that system of know-how.
The extensive experience of our Advisory Board Member enables our clients to develop a unique corporate identity to ensure the success of this crucial process.
