> Business Planning and Financial Projections
We work closely with you to prepare a detailed business and financial plan. You can use this plan to gauge monthly revenue performance and as a budgeting tool to track cost of goods sold, selling, marketing, research, development and administrative expenses. Let CGC help you set, and then exceed, your company's goals.
> Back Office Assessment We review finance, operations and administrative functions and make recommendations to improve and strengthen your business’s core systems.
> Financial Cleansing We review accounting records and make adjustments to create financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). GAAP financial statements provide the only consistent means of tracking a company's performance.
> Capitalization We’ll explore your business's capitalization needs and make recommendations for the most appropriate options, including:
Debt financing (operating line of credit, long-term loans, convertible notes) with banks and/or individual investors.
Selling a percentage of the company (to friends, family and outside investors)
We can also assist with introductions to financial institutions and angel investors.
> Financial Controls We establish financial controls that allow owners to safely delegate financial record-keeping to an employee or part-time bookkeeper.
> Position to Transition We make recommendations to dramatically improve the value of your business in preparation for sale or merger.
