What you can expect from CANFIN MANAGEMENT INC. (CMI)
CMI is a management consulting firm that specializes in working with SMEs (the small and medium enterprises) business sector in Canada.
Generally speaking, SMEs are the engine of the Canadian economy. Despite their small and medium size, they make a substantial impact in job creation, innovation and entrepreneurship.
Despite their significance to the Canadian economy, SMEs are often left alone to sink or swim. Their size makes it difficult to obtain high priced, big name consulting firms.
CMI specializes with SMEs. Our consulting work is custom designed for the SME, therefore the size of the work is commensurate with the fees paid, making our services very affordable. Most importantly, our recommendations often lead to immediate action converting the cost of our work into an investment.
CMI objective is to help SMEs discover and execute their Competitive Advantage. We do this by using “our qualified approach”. This approach involves three steps:
-
Investigation: A comprehensive business diagnostic in which all aspects of the business (marketing, finance, HR/operations, technology, communication and strategy) are investigated
-
Assessment: Rigirous assessment of our investigation combined with an objective “internal and external size-up” of the business and its position relative to competitors will allow the business client to determine their unique capabilities and core competencies. (This step involves face-to-face meeting with the company owner and senior management team.)
-
Report Findings: The deliverables at this stage consist of:
-
External and Internal “size-up” findings
-
Revised strategic direction (vision, mission, and value statements)
-
Key issues to address (Goals and Objectives)
-
Action items and implementation steps
When we undertake a project for a client, the end game we seek for all of our clients are the relentless focus on how a business can use their “Competitive Advantage to improve profitability, increase market-share, engender customer satisfaction and enhance value-creation.”
