"teach a man to fish..." 
Why do Business Owners, Equity Groups, and Company Presidents Choose Socius Business Advisors?
The answers are three:
-
Socius Business Advisors are skilled in what we do. We listen to your needs, and send the best people for the job.
-
Socius Business Advisors realize that our clients are business leaders that seek help. You are not a rookie, so why do other consultants treat you like one. Our Collaborative Mentoring seeks to jointly deal with you, your strengths, and your needs and not waste time by treating you as a novice.
-
At Socius Business Advisors, we always keep in mind the adage "teach a man to fish...", and we strive to not only help you solve today's issues, but prepare you for the future.
You talk, We listen.
Any good business person knows you first have to listen to your client. We do, and if you will let us, we also listen to your customer’s and potential customer’s about needs, wants, competition, goals and objectives. We ask probing questions to get to the heart of the matter.
Frequently, in the process, we lay out our findings and discuss situations. We put our heads together with you and your staff to combine our years of experience with your know how. That’s right we said, “your know how”. If you want to be successful at executing a plan, it must be a plan that can be executed.
At Socius Business Advisors we also expect though-provoking debate. It is what we strive for, for when attained, we break through barriers and get resolution. Then and only then are we well enough advised to respond.
We Deliver!
What most consulting companies ignore is that it is you and your people that must make it happen. We are not afraid of rolling up our sleeves and getting things done, and we will if that's what the assignment entails, but remember the old adage of “teach a man to fish…” Our goal is to prepare you and your people, so together we write a plan(s) that can be delivered. We help you to develop an execution plan, including checklists and assignments, and lay out actions you (not the consulting firm) can execute. In other words, we aid you in completing the project and prepare you for future challenges.
Socius Business Advisors is Not Your Ordinary Consulting Group.
We know that the majority of consultant’s business plans and reports go unexecuted. Why, because most consultants either base their plan on their capabilities, not yours, or tell you what needs to be done, then leave. And when they do that 50 page report normally goes into someone’s drawer never to see the light of day. We consider that a waste of your time and ours. Our professional make up is to take on projects that will be fulfilled. Pardon if this seems blunt. If you have no intention of executing then hire someone else.
