Your business success is your #1 priority
Your know your team is capable of winning more profitable business and converting more of your sales into profits - sustainably. Or, perhaps you want to be ready to sell your business when the time is right and you don't want to leave too much money on the table for the buyer.
Whether your objective is to grow your business and its profitability or be 'exit ready', the answer is often the same. You need to have developed a sustainable strategic advantage for your business.
developing a sustainable strategic advantage
To develop strategy which delivers strategic advantages for their business, most CEOs go to what they know (and others know). This approach can deliver significantly better results than ‘doing the same thing over and over again’. However, it has one disadvantage: it leaves many businesses within reach of their competitors and with no sustainable strategic advantage.
How does a business go about identifying and creating sustainable strategic advantage? It often involves a trip into the territory of the unknown – where competitors do not even think of going. This trip takes you and your business down the path of innovation.
Not every CEO and business owner is ready to take themselves and their business down the path towards developing a sustainable strategic advantage. It can be tricky and often involves challenging the unknown. And, there is no right answer for you and your business – only the development of an attitude to explore the unknown in order to achieve more for you and your business.
You may have heard the saying “You don’t know what you don’t know” but there is more to this saying: it is the unknown which will set you apart from your peers and your competitors. The further you have to delve into the unknown to develop your sustainable strategic advantage, the greater your sustainability is likely to be as the more removed from your competitors you will likely to be.
our points of difference
IR Strategy Solutions keeps looking at new ways to uncover your sustainable strategic advantages, to challenge your management team to deliver real benefits to you and your shareholders.
We do not operate a large team which you need to feed. Rather, you get to deal one on one with the Principal and Founder of BIR Solutions, Michael Royal. Additional resources are only brought in when required and agreed.
Not many consultants have the experience and expertise of Michael. He has been consulting to businesses and business owners for over 25 years. He has also operated and run businesses in manufacturing and assembly, both quite complex product portfolios involving the major retailers and international customers. These turnaround assignments required operating within tight budget constraints, providing detailed yet quick analysis of the options available, developing a vision for the way forward and successfully communicating this vision to the key stakeholders, both internal and external.
BIR Strategy Solutions is also able to bring value added solutions via their involvement in Human Capital Solutions and Finance Solutions, two of the most critical issues to address to improve current performance and find solutions for your business.
We are willing to work with you and back our judgement using one of a number of fee models including retainer, retainer plus upside and retainer, plus upside and equity participation.
