Attention Manufacturing Executives

Are you at $5M+ in Revenue and have low margins, tight cash flow, and get surprises every month?

Our FREE Assessment will allow you to know how much you could be losing in profits.

The best part?

It will also tell you how much you could be making in profits.

It is 100% free and you get to keep it (even if you choose not to work with us).

Based on our experience, companies that have grown past $5M usually have 5% to 15% of margins lost due to:

☑️ Overlooked fixed costs

☑️ Services that no longer make sense

☑️ Software subscriptions that linger over time

☑️ Slow and Obsolete (SLOB) inventory

☑️ Unnecessarily large inventories

☑️ No negotiation frameworks

☑️ No contract reviews

☑️ Purchasing chaos

And all of this happens because the team is in fire.

This risk-free assessment could help you see how much more you could be doing.

You might be able to do it all with a lot less.

Constant Cash Flow Strain: Most manufacturers at the $5M mark lose margins due to overlooked fixed costs, disorganized cash flow timing, and unmanaged vendor relationships. We understand this complexity comes from growth and how it significantly impacts cash flow, profitability, and operational performance. We know exactly how to solve it for the long run.

Managing Supply Chain Complexity: Growing manufacturers must navigate diverse supplier relationships, contract terms, and delivery schedules across multiple generations of vendors (the old and the new). Usually, very favorable terms stay with them, even when your company has grown. This highlights the need for centralized purchasing strategies and constant vendor screening.

Developing Effective Financial Controls: Poor financial oversight negatively affects cash flow, inventory management, and operational efficiency. Manufacturing leaders need to manage robust financial controls and ensure their teams have the systems to monitor and optimize spending across all categories.

Managing Purchasing Decisions: With multiple locations, departments, and/or decision-makers, manufacturers face challenges in maintaining cost control, vendor standardization, and purchasing discipline across dispersed operations and teams.

Balancing Growth with Profits: Manufacturing executives need to increasingly prioritize sustainable growth while maintaining healthy margins. This can be challenging. Manufacturers need to optimize existing spend and eliminate waste while remaining flexible for invest in growth opportunities. Sometimes slowing down growth is the key to long term profitability.
