Why NorthStar?

If You're A Small Business, You Have Challenges

We have over 35 years of experience solving complex problems of a broad array of businesses. Whether it is growing your revenues profitably, improving gross margins, accelerating your cash flow, evaluating an asset acquisition, or organizing your strategic plan, we can help. Our first consulting and evaluation session is at no cost, as we examine and identify the problem with you.

Your Business Should Be Profitable

Whether you are currently profitable and want to improve, or you are still striving to achieve profitability, we can help. We examine your financial reports, evaluate your gross profit margins, and analyze your operating and overhead costs. We review your accounts receivable, your collection activity and practices, and your customer credit policies. Then we identify and recommend strategies to improve your margins, enhance productivity and efficiency, speed up cash flow, and increase profitability.  Once we agree on a plan of action, we work with your management team to implement and execute the plan.

Your Business Is Growing, but Cash Flow is Tight

Our first and primary focus always begins with evaluating and organizing the presentation and accuracy of your internal financial reporting. Accurate and detailed financial reports are a critical profit management tool, and a key objective for each client engagement. From there, we examine your daily sources and uses of cash, the timing of your cash inflows and outflows, and identify ways to improve the flow and timing.  We develop monthly revenue and expense projections, weekly cash flow forecasts, Key Performance Indicators and then prepare an action plan for achieving the targets.

Debt or Equity? That Is the Question

We will discuss and review your business strategies, your financial needs, and your long-term business objectives to determine the best source and type of funding. We will recommend the appropriate sources of capital, prepare the financing package as needed, and participate in the discussions and negotiations with your lender to ensure the transaction is closed on a timely basis.
