Economic management for competitive advantage?
SMEs are often reactive when it comes to financial matters and rarely have an understanding of the competitive advantage that financial management can bring. As a result, the realisation of economic risks often comes as a “surprise” to the company, even if it could have anticipated a deterioration in the business cycle and outlook well in advance. Unfortunately, financial management is often limited to communicating with the accounting office, which manages the invoices in the financial management software, does the compulsory accounting and calculates the salaries.
Where to find the expert?
While SMEs would benefit greatly from proactive financial management, the investment in a full-time finance manager or director is usually too significant. Recruiting the right person takes time and money, and finding the right person is not always easy. If the right person is found, the recruitment risk can materialise when that person is not suited to the culture and environment of the company.

What are the benefits of proper financial management?
1. Improve business predictability
Systematic financial management improves the predictability of business and creates certainty for the various challenges the company will face in the future. A good vision needs a good financial plan to support it. Plans are rarely set in stone and adapt as strategy changes. We help you to make, challenge and develop financial management to support your business strategy.
2. Improve productivity
One of the key measures of the economy is productivity, also referred to as efficiency. In production, productivity is simply getting more done with less, resulting in an increase in wealth or value added to the firm. More generally, it is about the efficiency of processes. We help increase the productivity of your business by analysing operations through financial know-how and their figures, and by producing best practices & policies that improve productivity.
3. Enabling growth
Once the surveys and interviews have been carried out, we will analyse the results by theme and identify significant trends. This analysis will allow you to make informed decisions to improve customer relationships and identify opportunities to improve the customer experience.
4. Increase the value of your business
There are many ways to measure the value of a business, for some, entrepreneurship itself is a value. Well-constructed financial planning, monitoring and reporting is a sign of a well-run business, which increases the value of the business in a takeover situation. We can help you build a systematic and systematic approach to running your business by the numbers, which will increase the value of your business in the future.
5. Reduce risks
Risk can be an opportunity, realised risk is less likely. By managing the economy correctly and analysing the right data, a company can create a significant competitive advantage by minimising risk. We help you build systematic approaches to improve risk identification and reduce risk realisation.
6. Supporting and sparring with management
The higher up in the organisation you are, the fewer colleagues or sparring partners you have. We’ve been in many different management roles and know how much value the support that an experienced business expert can bring to you and your business can bring. The right hand of the CEO and management team is the CFO, who systematically provides the numbers, analysis and conclusions to support business development. We will help you and your management team to drive your business management towards a systematic and numbers-based approach.
