A Free Analysis of Your Business 

August 4, 2010

Whether you’re growing or reinventing your business – or planning your exit strategy – a business analysis by the Alaska SBDC can help clarify the next steps you can take to best ensure your success.

Here at the Alaska Small Business Development Center we, at times, feel we are much like doctors in the approaches we use to analyze our customers businesses and business proposals.

Just as technology has dramatically changed the way we communicate, it has changed the way we at the Alaska SBDC can look at your small business. From planning analysis to ratio analysis, we can help you take a thorough and objective look at your business (akin to a physical) and share steps you can take to improve your business. And at a follow-up appointment, we’ll help make sure you’re on track.

Healthy Considerations

We have specific tools that help you understand your business and check for signs of health or illness. Often, we use ratios instead of pulse rates, and identify good or bad debt rather than cholesterol. Sometimes we even feel we need an ER, as many businesses seem to call when they are on the brink of death.

Another great use for our tools is the application of “what-if” scenarios. Would you like to grow your sales force? Have you considered the impact of changing your prices or investing in efficiencies? We can walk you through these scenarios and help you to understand how they will impact your cash flow and bottom-line.

Access Powerful Services (no health insurance required)

Regardless of the analogy used, the importance to you is knowing that the Alaska SBDC is here for you, with experienced advisers and technical tools that will help you gain insight into your business. And while we understand that we are often called in for emergencies, we want you to know that day in and day out we help regular businesses become incredible businesses.
