What’s next for your business?

The Next Street Strategy team helps business owners see their organization and their marketplace from every angle, revealing new avenues of growth and sometimes what’s missing in the business equation. Our job is to answer two big questions:

What do you need to get to the next level?

What are the steps to get there from here?


Here are some of the challenges we’ve solved for scores of companies – and the tools we use to solve them.

 

Revenues are up, but profits are down. Better pricing strategies and profitability management tools help Next Street clients protect their margins in any business climate.

When the economic recession derailed national expansion plans for a client, Next Street helped the firm increase profits in its existing territory by $1 million a year.

Where are the easiest routes to growth? A Next Street opportunity assessment helps business owners identify markets they don’t already serve.

Next Street helped a client win the grocery franchise inside a CVS shopping plaza, more than doubling annual revenue.

Which customer segments should we focus on? Market analysis and segmentation helps you isolate high-potential customers and engage them.

Next Street helped a 90-year old family company protect its core business while it launched a new product line, for which we developed the marketing campaign.

How are my company’s vital signs? Next Street clients can run their companies better with financial planning, reporting and performance dashboards always at their fingertips.

When rapid growth overwhelmed a professional services firm's financial department, Next Street helped the company design a new financial management system and hire its first comptroller – all while continuing to grow at over 35% a year.

What do we need to know and do to pull off a successful merger or acquisition? Next Street assists clients with merger and acquisition strategy, the due diligence process and making sure the companies mesh.

When a food company attracted an investment offer from a potential partner, Next Street helped the owners evaluate the proposal – and increase it substantially.

Who will actually help us execute any of the above? Unlike most consultant organizations, Next Street is in the business of helping its clients implement change.

Next Street helped a light manufacturing firm double its line of credit, significantly increase profits, and win exclusive, long-term contracts worth millions a year.
