About our Logo:
Over the years we found that the majority of our new clients were either still trying to grow their business, or had grown too fast and were in the process of cutting back. Those still growing were still heading north, but were often weaving. Those heading south had simply outgrown their management abilities because they failed to build a strong foundation, one of systems, controls, and procedures, which caused them to have do everything themselves. They in fact built their companies as an inverted pyramid and kept themselves at the lower point, constantly trying to balance everything. As the top grew, they were unable to maintain that balance, and what usually slid off of the top first, was their PROFIT!

And so, when designing our logo, we decided to right the pyramid, give it a strong foundation, and create a clear, direct (straight as an arrow) path to the target.

First and foremost, we are a Management Consulting Firm. Although QuickBooks is the accounting software we typically recommend, it makes no difference what accounting software you use if your company is not built on a strong foundation, one of Systems, Controls, and Procedures.

Pyramid DownPyramid Up

We find that most small businesses have no foundation. It is the owner that tries to support the company and as the company grows, the burden becomes unbearable. The owner finds that every waking hour is spent working deeply IN the business, with little or no time to work ON the business.

You may have heard of the "LRS" formula as it is the common formula used to improve a company's bottom line. It states that there are really only 3 methods (or a combination of the 3) that you can use to make such an improvement. You can Lower your costs, Raise your prices, or Sell more. Ideally, you should cut and hold your costs, raise your prices AND sell more.

Frankly, if as an owner, you are in the position shown in the inverted pyramid above, the worst thing that you could do is to apply the LRS formula without first establishing meaningful systems, controls and procedures.
