Business Diagnostics
Business diagnosis is a process of working backwards to identify reasons businesses are not doing as well as expected, or it could. It is a process of identifying the symptoms or causes to a problem. Whether it is an overall snapshot of the business, a close-up of its financial health, an inventory of its talent or the size of its carbon footprint, someone somewhere will have designed a business diagnostic tool to analyze it.
Business owners that feel they have reached a plateau, or are finding profits declining, may need objective insight into some of the aspects of the business to see if there are areas that may need improvement or diversification. As Business Analysts, we look at the business as a whole- what is the financial situation? How efficient are operations? Have the marketing needs kept up with the changing technology? Can the business use upgrading in systems or software?
We can provide the sober second look at different options and opportunities, assist through Consultant Advisory Services, or help find a mentor through Mentoring Plus to collaborate with the owner and find opportunities to grow.
Anyone in need of business assistance is more than welcome to contact CBDC-NOBL, we will be happy to help.
Being in the industry I am, I have been aware of the SEB program for many years. As a participant, I was surprised at the number of ways the program impacted my business. Everyone I dealt with from the beginnings of an idea to final approval were helpful and supportive. The professional presenters on topics ranging from marketing to financial issues to insurance were very informative and often were able to put things in the context of my business problems and concerns. The most surprising to me though was the benefit received from brainstorming with other business owners about issues we were all facing in trying to grow our business and the realization that we had a network of support.
