Brief: Email & document collaboration inefficiencies
History: A consulting business focused on the NDIS and NFP sector, the business develops documentation that requires collaboration across their team of 7 consultants spread across several geographical locations.
Outcome: Utilising technology, in particular Microsoft Teams, we achieved a 30% reduction in emails, we increased document sharing, and improved the responsiveness for proposal submissions, resulting in more sales.
“Using Teams has greatly improved our tender response time, which has increased our revenue for the year. The implementation and training were fantastic and the uptake from the business was immediate.”
“With Your2IC’s guidance, in under 3 years we were able to turn our business around 180 degrees - from an unstable and reactive business into a highly profitable, forward planning one. They give clear, easy-to-follow advice, really know their stuff, and are exceptionally trustworthy. We simply can’t thank them enough and would never hesitate to recommend them to any small business trying to figure out how to grow without losing control.”

Brief: Business debt and lack of sales; the business was verging on insolvent
History: Financial inefficiencies and lack of vision from management had left the business with a lack of sales, inefficient processes and procedures, resourcing and staffing issues, and a poorly run operation, with a significant debt.
Outcome: Through a long-term engagement, we provided the vision and accountability to the business and the staff, changes in operations, staff, and processes with a focus on financial control and stability. A renewed focus on the vision of the business and the operational changes led to the business owner recovering from the financial strain and operating at a minimum ongoing $100,000 net profit the next financial year, and ongoing.

Brief: $70,000 deficit, reduced enrolments
History: The Council-funded Committee of Management volunteered by parents had endured changeovers and decisions that had impacted the 2018 year.
Outcome: Providing a clearly defined strategic plan, the projects undertaken in the first 6 months of renewed/refreshed website, creation of additional committee roles, and a targeted social media campaign resulted in a waitlist for both levels for the 2019 year.
“The leadership provided by Your2IC has been an asset that our preschool could not have survived the 2018 year without. The direction they provided gave us the tools to harness skills from our membership base to enact new strategies, which enabled us to recoup a severe deficit and increase our membership base. Under the guidance of Your2IC, we were able to achieve a number of our one-year goals in just six months!”
