ORGANIZATION BENEFITS
Improved performance by standardizing financial statement organization.
The company managed 250+ properties, each of which had boards and CPAs who
reviewed financial information. Improved reporting format to increase
readability and information detail. Revised bookkeeping procedures to
create standard statements and institute formal reviews. Finally,
established closing schedules for developer properties along with monthly
updates. These changes added $400,000 in returns for the company.
Directed "fast track" startup of a new business. Created project management
plan which scheduled equipment delivery, modifications, facility construction,
personnel hiring, training, and operations procedures. Created marketing
plan with incentives, promotions, and cooperative agreements. Negotiated
vendor and rental agreements, insurance coverage, and emergency planning.
This business opened within 60 days, achieving positive cash flow by the end
of three months.
Turned around organization through effective "hands on" management. Poorly
planned switch to a computerized system had left the company as much as 6
months behind on statement delivery. Client relations were deteriorating and
staff morale was very low. Immediately pitched in to update delayed accounts,
improved procedures to streamline work flow, and redistributed workload.
Fast action reestablished the organization's reputation and stopped customer
loss. Revenue impact was $870,000.
Developed strategic plan to separate profitable subsidiary from failing
parent. Worked with subsidiary senior management to identify markets,
prepare projections, and create pro forma statements for independent operations.
Formulated strategy for stock purchase and buy-out of assets from parent
company. Captured important customers from failing parent company while
eliminating parent liabilities and maintaining established repute and goodwill.
This plan yielded a viable small company which generated $100,000 in profits
during its second year.
Set up Windows NT computer network and selected software capable of multi
store/department cost accounting. Designed reports to empower managers and
used information to prepare private placement memorandum. Sophistication
of reporting was significant factor in eventual sale of company for $2
million plus.
