Services + Pricing

OUR PRICING PHILOSOPHY

At Sympli4Biz, we like to take the fear and mystery out of our pricing model by incorporating predictive based pricing .  We believe that open-ended hourly rate billing is counter productive to a healthy, trust-based relationship, as neither of us are able to effectively manage expectations.

For ongoing routine engagements, we prefer a fixed-price monthly retainer.  In the case of larger, more expensive projects (e.g. a comprehensive and complicated cash flow model), we often divide up the engagement into manageable segments,  with monthly payment terms to enable our clients to better budget for the projects.

In larger engagements, we prefer to break down the engagement into manageable pieces.  Then sprint to finish a project before looping back after short intervals of time to review the work  with our clients and make regular adjustments, as needed.

ENTREPRENEUR MENTORSHIP SERVICES

For individual one-on-one mentorships--  Our mentorship services can be either formal or informal. For a reason, a season, or a lifetime. The structure is less important than our impact.   As mentors, we strive to leave a positive impact on our mentees.  

Whether you are looking for career planning, skills training, project guidance, professional contacts, problem solving for an individual career or within a company, mentorship will be insightful, truthful and with care.

“Experience is a very expensive asset — yet it's crucial to business success. There's only so much about a person's experience you can gain from books.... Mentorship is one guaranteed way to gain experience from others.”   Sheila Eugenio, Entrepreneur Guest Writer

ADVISORY BOARD SERVICES

For growing, privately held companies seeking to benefit from outside perspectives — It helps to have a sounding board of advisers to test ideas, challenge assumptions, and support your business to grow.  Advisory boards are essential for growing businesses of all sizes.  They help fill gaps in management capability and provide valuable insight and experience that can accelerate the growth of your business. 

With an advisory board, you will receive strategic input, gain collective entrepreneur and financial experience from board members, and connections to other business professionals. 

AGILE BUSINESS MODEL SERVICES

ENTREPRENEURIAL OPERATING SYSTEM SERVICES 

For  growing companies who feel they are losing control —  We will guide you through the process of gaining control of your organization, so that you are running your organization vs. it running you.  All the way from vision to gaining sustainable traction.  We help you to pull it all together.

“Your business is an entity in and of itself.  Yes, you created it, but … to find success, you have to turn it into a self-sustaining organism.  Reaching the next level requires more than just a product or service, or a simple determination to success.  You need skills, tools, and a system to optimize your people, processes, execution, management, and communication...  day in and day out.”  Gino Wickman

CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM)

For organizations that need to improve customer relations and streamline operations  —  We offer comprehensive services to help you choose and implement integrated CRM solutions that fit your needs now and into the future.

"Any business will start out with great customer relationships... Yet, as your company grows, the business connections grow more sophisticated. It’s not just a transaction between the buyer and seller.  You need to share information across various teams within your own organization who are making contact with the same customers... 

A CRM system can serve as a vital nerve center o manage the many connections that happen in a growing business. How do you translate the many streams of data coming in from sales, customer, service, marketing, and social media monitoring into actionable business information?

"A CRM gives everyone across the business, including sales, customer service, marketing, and business development, a better way to manage the customer relationships and interactions that drive success..."  Salesforce

CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER (CFO) SERVICES

For organizations without the expertise, or resources, to staff  an in-house CFO  —  The CFO heads all administrative, financial and risk management operations of the company.  Included is the development of the company's financial and operational strategy, designing metrics to monitor that strategy, and the ongoing development and monitoring of  control systems intended to preserve company assets and report accurate financial results.

The CFO has a much larger role in an organization than does a financial controller. While the controller is the head of  accounting, the CFO is responsible for overseeing every financial and operative function of the organization.

Our services include: Financial modeling, development and implementation of  controls and processes, budgeting and planning, cash flow optimization, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and performance metrics; financial systems, reporting and analysis, strategic planning, transactional support, and project based support.
