Business Growth Strategies
New business start-ups frequently experience problems, such as:
- $Lack of funding.
- $Inability to assess the financial dynamics of the business and prepare a strategic plan and financial forecasts.
- $The need to negotiate major contractual relationships.
- $Gaps in the management team.
These problems can be difficult to solve when you are trying to establish a new business and there is no money to support the recruitment of additional staff or engage professional advisers.
Unlike many of our competitors, Co-gency CF actively supports high-quality start-ups, even without upfront fees.
We may join as a partner, helping to establish the business, develop plans, negotiate key deals, and implement financial controls. We also assist with funding and senior recruitment, aiming for eventual flotation or trade sale. Typically, we take a small equity stake, earning returns through capital growth, with fees only charged if affordable. We help our partners look after financial and commercial matters, while they concentrate on business innovation and development.
Financial and Strategic Advice
Our everyday work brings us into contact with hundreds of different businesses and requires us to analyse how they work and how they generate cash and profits. These analytical skills, combined with our corporate finance expertise, enable us to assess financial performance and consider strategic options in an informed manner, for example:
- Lack of funding.
- Inability to assess the financial dynamics of the business and prepare a strategic plan and financial forecasts.
- The need to negotiate major contractual relationships.
- Gaps in the management team.
Some clients lack in-house resources for these issues and seek our support through ongoing financial and strategic advice or specific projects like budgeting and business planning. In some cases, a Co-gency CF partner may join the client’s board.
As always, we are independent in our thinking, challenge convention, generate ideas and we say what we think.
