What We Do

At Your Business is Alive!, we are confident that we can find areas where your business can improve. Here is how we go about it.

Preliminary Business Analysis

How much money did you make last year?  How much money did you get to keep?  Sounds pretty simple but there is more to it than you might think. Do you know your company's breakeven point?  Your Business is Alive! will provide a comprehensive business analysis that depicts where you are today and where you would like to be.

How do your employees feel about things? Great ideas for improvement often come from the current human resources. Barriers in communication sometimes cause these ideas to be lost. Your Business is Alive! conducts interviews with your staff in a confidential and honest environment where these ideas can come to light. One of the most productive things we do is ask your employees, "If you were running this company, what is the one thing you would change?" Your Business is Alive! cares about our clients' most important resource:  its employees.

The preliminary analysis will identify the strengths of your business and areas where there is potential for improvement. We partner with you to prioritize these subjects, design effective remedies and training programs. We will be there to help you with every step and ensure that you realize the benefits of our recommended changes.
