Consultancy
Innovative Business Intelligence to Drive Your Strategy
Lift the weight from your shoulders and the conjecture from your decision making. InHand brings you financial expertise on a part-time, interim, or non-executive director basis.
We’ve worked with SMEs across many business sectors
You know your business better than anyone
You own the vision. You know the mission. Your fingerprints are on every business pie.
Yet sustainable business success rests upon sound strategic actions, and even the most insightful CEO will admit – for this you need good data.
It’s the role of an analytical Chief Financial Officer to interpret this data into actionable business intelligence. It is not the role of a visionary CEO, nor an elevated accounts clerk. Without this resource, impending threats and emerging opportunities are often overlooked.
How then to capture that value without the prohibitive cost of a full-time CFO?
Worry not. Be it a short-term project or ongoing C-Suite support, InHand’s tailored consultancy services will put you back in the data-driven driving seat on the highway to business success.
Ingenious insights which add real value
At inHand we don’t stop at insights; we deliver bankable value. Working with dozens of SME’s over two decades, our modus operandi is to deliver measurable results.
We don’t just devise plans of great cunning. We leverage advanced analytical skills and broad SME experience to generate insight; we support you in optimising strategic choice; and we work with you through implementation until actual commercial value has been realised.
This is how time and again we generate substantial commercial benefits for our clients, worth many multiples of the outlay.
What we can do for you
STRATEGIC BUSINESS PLANNING
Business leaders must keep their strategy fresh and front of mind.
We offer financial rigour to support your vision and we innovate to help you build a data-driven business plan. Our strategy toolkit and consulting framework bring a structured approach to the planning process.
SELL/EXIT
It is never too early to start planning for an exit.
Wherever you are with your business, setting up systems and processes correctly yields dividends when it’s time to sell. We help build and execute a plan to maximise your valuation and secure a smooth exit - on your terms.
IMPROVE CASHFLOW
Strong cash management empowers businesses to take bold decisions.
We’ve worked through many trying situations and learned the hard lessons of cash flow management. From an informed position, proactive action can be taken to grow or protect cash reserves and avoid a crunch.
FUNDRAISING
It can be a minefield choosing which form of finance is right for your business.
Be it private equity, venture capital, crowdfunding or debt finance, we have the financial acumen to evaluate your options and secure optimal terms.
IMPROVE SYSTEMS & CONTROLS
Successful leaders optimise systems management, not people management.
At inHand we place a high priority on mapping and documenting the processes we’re involved with. In doing so we pinpoint missing steps in systems or controls and design solutions to put you back in control.
