Business Planning

In order to sustain growth in your business in today's marketplace, it is no longer advisable to just react to market conditions as they happen. An aggressive, proactive approach to the marketplace, driven by a written plan with specific goals can provide a focused approach toward your goals. A targeted business plan:

• Identifies the issues critical to the future success of the business
• Provides management and staff with strategies and an actionable plan
• Provides a timetable and metrics with accountability
• Provides a sense of ownership and accountability by your staff
• Promotes a forward-thinking mindset in order to achieve long-term goals

Business Succession Planning

The number one mistake many business owners make is failure to plan for the succession of their business. The transfer of a closely held business to children or other relatives, employees or even competitors can be a challenging but rewarding process. The professionals at CRB will help you develop and implement a coordinated business succession plan that will be tailored to your individual and business goals.

CRB's approach to succession and transition issues involves:

• Comprehensive dialogue to determine the financial and emotional
  issues related to the transition
• Development of goals and objectives
• Analysis of transfer options and strategies
• Assistance with a written plan designed to incorporate the goals
  and objectives utilizing your specific transfer strategy
• Working closely with family/owners to implement the plan,
  periodically reviewing it and reworking it when necessary
• Ongoing consultation and advice
• Representation for the sale of the business
• Facilitation of board of directors meetings

CRB understands that the most difficult issue with succession planning may be the emotional or non-financial aspects. Our experience with family-owned and closely-held businesses allows us to tailor our knowledge to your specific circumstances.
