Mergers and Acquisitions

Mergers can also be an inexpensive and efficient way of developing the business when there are insufficient funds to do what is necessary for the survival or expansion of the business.

Mission Statement

Most businesses do not have a formal written mission statement. Even those who do will have one written by the MDO and would simply reflect their vision for the business and their own culture. Let us have a part in originating a mission statement,that your staff will know to what end the business is working to and will help your staff to get them to commit to this end.

Internet and Websites

You should be as careful over who designs the company website as about who designs the clients brochures and promotional material.

There are specialists within the IIB network who can do the job for you.

Venture Capital/Business Angels

Sometimes financing from normal scources is not available or inappropriate. You may need to look at venture capital or business angels who will put personal money into the business or project in return for equity combined with interest on the money invested.
