How does your business stack up?
Would potential investors be drawn to your business? With a team of professionals knowledgeable in all aspects of business formation, operation and succession, Brown & Sterling can help you turn your business into something investors would be attracted to–or whatever you desire it to be.
1. SALES
All businesses are selling something–either a product or a service. If you don’t have a strong system for sales, your business won’t be able to generate revenues. And a business that doesn’t generate revenues–well, isn’t really a business.
2. MARKETING
Your business isn’t going to generate much in the way of sales if you don’t have a good marketing machine in place. Marketing drives sales.
3. FACTORY
As the term suggests, the “factory” for your business is the combination of people, machines and systems that produce the products or services that your business sells. It doesn’t matter how much you market or sell if your “factory” can’t keep up.
4. PHYSICAL PLANT
The physical plant is the where the “factory” is located. It also includes the machinery and equipment used in your factory. As businesses grow, their physical plants need to grow. They’ll need more space, bigger and faster machines.
5. FINANCES
It’s not uncommon for new businesses to be under-capitalized. That’s typically why businesses appear on Shark Tank. Without adequate capital, a business can’t grow. But capital alone won’t create a successful business. Capital has to be obtained and used wisely.
