How the Consulting Process Works..

Every situation is unique. However, some fairly common steps include the following:

• Initial discussion to understand your basic needs.
• Review your existing materials (draft business plans, financial's, market research, competitor research, etc.).
• Follow-up discussion to clarify details and agree upon the scope and fees for the project.
• Several in-depth discussions to better understand the details, develop strategies, and agree on all major elements of the business plan and financial model.
• Conduct additional research, as needed.
• Draft an Initial Presentation and review it with you to ensure that all parties agree on the high-level vision.
• Draft the Financial Forecast and review it with you to ensure that we all agree on the next level of detail.
• Prepare a draft outline of the business plan for your review.
• Begin filling in the details on the draft. Obtain and incorporate your feedback.
• Incorporate your revenue and expense models into the financial model, and explain how it works so that you can take "ownership" of the financial's.
• Finalize the presentation..
• Advise you on how to address questions.
• Provide ongoing support, including making minor updates to the deliverables at no additional charge.

How long the Consulting Process will take...

For a typical kennel or dog day care business consulting project, consisting of developing a comprehensive Kennel or Dog Day Care business plan, financial forecast, and investor presentation, the typical time varies between 6-8 weeks in order to complete the project. The actual time will be impacted by the quality of your existing materials, the degree of your participation, and the complexity of your opportunity. (back to top)

Why you should hire a Pet Care Industry Business Consultant...

Because you probably don't have the experience or in depth knowledge you need to prepare and articulate your business proposition effectively. In addition, you could easily spend 400 hours or more preparing a suitable business plan, financial forecast, and investor presentation, even if you have in depth experience in your business. In addition to our expertise in preparing these materials, we offer insights into your business, opportunity that you may not have considered. . (back to top)

What makes our Business Plans and Financial Forecasts so special...

First of all, we specialize in the Pet Care Services Industry and we've been doing so since 1999. We don't develop or provide consulting in any other industry. Each Pet Care specific business plan is specifically developed to articulate your pet Care business proposition accurately and is formatted in a manner in which investors and financial institutions are used to seeing. The Financial Forecasts provide Cash flow statements, Revenue Projections, Profit and Loss Statements,, and Balance sheets that are based on the most recent industry statistics and supported by realistic and defendable worksheet assumptions to most accurately portray your business proposition.

How We Charge for our Services...

In general, we work for a pre-determined fixed fee. The fees are determined by:

• The scope of the project.
• The quality of your existing materials, including early drafts of business plans, financial forecasts, market research, competitive research, etc. For instance, if you have a recent, comprehensive research report from a major market research firm like Claritas, our effort can be significantly reduced.
• The clarity of your vision for your business model, marketing and distribution strategy, financial plans, etc.
• Your availability and willingness to contribute to the preparation of the business plan, financial model, and investor presentation.
• The complexity of your business model.
• The desired timing relative to our workload. In general, "rush" jobs will carry a premium over projects that can be completed as our schedule permits.

Where we are located...

We are located West of Phoenix, Arizona. We rely heavily on the phone, e-mail, and fax, and have never met half of our clients. If desired, we are available to visit you at your offices for a day or two at a time. (back to top)

Why you should hire us?

Most of our clients are looking to develop startup kennel and dog day care businesses and need to raise $500,000 to $3.5 million. Some are looking to raise more; others less. Most have an equity stake and experience in the Pet Care Service Industry, but they don't have the financial resources to fund the project entirely themselves. They also don't have a comprehensive business plan with adequate financial forecasts to accurately portray their business proposition to prospective investors or financial institutions. In short, Our clients hire us to translate the concept of their business opportunity into a tangible document suitable to warrant serious consideration by investors and/or financial institutions..
