201 Associates,
LLC. was
formed to provide the owners of small to mid-sized businesses with
the support and resources necessary to manage and grow their
companies. It is our goal to improve your personal and
professional bottom-line.
We work with our
client companies as a sounding board and advisor: to listen,
brainstorm and advise. We provide clear and meaningful management
information and practical business advice. We help you gain
the knowledge and tools to manage your business better and
enable you to focus on what is really important. But we
don't just provide advice. What makes us unique is our
ability to turn theory into action. In short, we deliver practical, hands-on help and advice
that works.
Interim Manager
Most small companies do not require a CEO, COO or
CIO. They do however need each of these roles fulfilled
periodically. We like to refer to this program as the
"temporary executive" program. We will add
value in any senior capacity required on a
part-time basis (1/2 day per week; 1-2 days per
month, etc.) or on a full-time basis for a short period of
time. Each assignment has defined
goals and definite time
constraints. You do not have the worry and expense of
hiring a permanent employee but you receive all the benefits
that are normally only available to Big
Business.
Sales / Marketing / Business
Development You know what needs to be
done but can't seem to find the time to do it. Maybe you've hit a
wall and can no longer see the forest for the trees. We'll
help you develop and implement a working plan to gain
more customers, more exposure, more revenue and more
profits.
Profitability Whether through
expense controls, vendor sourcing or stream-lined operations,
we can help you improve operational
performance.
Technology Most
small businesses have lots of data but little information. The
only way to manage your business effectively is to have a sound base
of quality management information. We'll
ensure you are utilizing your technology in the
best and most cost efficient way and
provide you with the tools to make decisions for growth
and improved performance.
Administration / Operations - An
effective organization is dependent on an efficient operation. We'll
help you maximize the potential of your most
valuable (and often most expensive) resource -
people. Whether
it's a Performance Review and
Incentive Plan or hands-on training, we can get it done.
Business and Strategic
Plans - For start-ups, expansions
or mature businesses looking to define goals. We'll help you prepare
the plan, implement it and monitor its
effectiveness.
Exit and Succession Plans - Make sure
that you have a plan to exit your business, whether it means selling
or transferring ownership.
Back-office and Administrative Support
- Most entrepreneurs excel at their area of
specialty/expertise but dread the day-to-day tasks associated with
running a business. In recognition of this, we now provide a full
service office function to those clients who need it. Let us
handle your Order Processing and Invoicing,
Accounts Receivable and Payable,
etc. Spend your time growing your business rather than learning
Quickbooks and supervising office staff.
Residential PC Support -
Many entrepreneurs work from home. Still others blend
their time at home doing business. Most want access to their data
files from home, while on vacation or traveling, etc. Our
Technology support program has geared up to support the home user.
We can help you choose a system that is best suited for your needs,
implement and maintain it.

(IIB), Jacqueline Meiluta
