Business Strategy and Planning

Recent economic conditions have demonstrated the importance of flexible business plans. A company’s business strategy must adapt to sometimes rapid changes in the marketplace, including mergers and acquisitions, competition (nationally and internationally), and company valuation.

In planning new strategies for a business, it is essential to define its current (implicit or explicit) strategies for the business as a whole and its main functional areas – finance, marketing, sales, management, operations, etc.
Bringabout helps you to generate strategic statements. Strategic statements can be defined as broad indicators of the direction(s) in which a business should be driven in order to fulfill its vision/mission while taking realistic account of its resources, constraints and opportunities.

We also help our clients define business challenges and obstacles and formulate a strategy for overcoming these challenges. We assist with:

  • Identifying risk
  • Understanding customer segmentation
  • Evaluating competition

Our proven strategy teams have enabled our clients to increase revenue growth, reduce costs, and improve efficiency. We help our clients achieve results in the following strategic areas:

  • Growth
  • Mergers & acquisitions
  • Business models

 Business-Valuation-125x125

Business Valuation

Understanding the current value of a corporation is an important factor in nearly every financial decision, especially in this era of active mergers and acquisitions. When looking at the overall value of a business, there is a number of different valuation methods which are commonly used – from using earnings multiples, to calculating how much it would cost to create a similar business.

How much is it worth? Will your professional or expert´s opinion stand up? The answer to these questions is fundamental in all possible scenarios.

How much your business is worth depends on many factors, from the current state of the economy through your business’s balance sheet.

In general, evaluating a company’s value is complicated and can be dependent on many real-time factors. Recently, company values have varied wildly over a few months or even weeks.
