Our Business Model

"We won’t waste your time or ours—We're focused."

Many people ask about our business model. We’re a focused, dedicated group of experienced consultants. Privately held, we’ve been in business since 1978. We’re cash flow positive and profitable. Our profits flow directly to our employees.

Our senior consultants devote about 30% of their time to hands-on consulting with you, our clients, either on a project or a retainer basis. We work with your team to help you design, jumpstart, and refine strategic business and technology initiatives. We’re a lean crew. We don’t want to move in with you. We want your team to be successful. We’re effective and efficient. We won’t waste your time or ours.

The same senior consultants invest 50% of their time doing research and analysis to provide you with written best practices, how to’s, case studies, and technology evaluations for our advisory services—knowledge transfer that will keep you on the cutting edge. We offer annual memberships to our advisory services. These memberships fund our research.

Our consultants also:

  • Run Customer Scenario® Mapping engagements
  • Conduct workshops
  • Provide executive education
  • Speak at users’ group meetings and conferences
  • Facilitate peer group meetings
  • And, train and certify trainees in our licensed methodologies:
