There is no fee for our initial assessment.
Process
Our initial meeting is typically no more than 15 minutes. During this session, we will gather basic information about your company to determine which tax incentive, business expense reduction programs you may qualify for as well as potential revenue gain opportunities. This can be done onsite, over the phone or via web conference…whichever best accommodates your schedule.
After the initial interview we will follow-up to get additional detail based on the service benefit opportunity. As an example, to determine how much revenue you could generate from paying your vendors virtually, we would just need a summary of your accounts payable spend sorted by supplier. In 3-5 business days we’ll get back to you with an estimate of the rebates you could earn.
Not at all. If you are satisfied with the current level of service of your credit card merchant processor, cell phone or business insurance or other service providers, continue with them. Use us to make sure you are not inadvertently being overcharged for any fees that don’t apply to your business.
Our expert team will continue to act on your behalf to make sure your new business service provider is billing you only for fees or line items that apply to your business. We provide peace of mind, month in and month out, so that you can focus on running your business.
Services
We focus on delivering expense reductions, specialized savings and tax incentives that you can apply to your business bottom line. Our team of business process consultants, engineers, intellectual property attorneys and expense auditors work together seamlessly to maximize your benefit.
Our team runs a multi-point expense analysis to identify overcharges and billing errors in key business expense areas such as credit card processing, document management, parcel shipping, waste & recycling, wireless and worker’s compensation premiums.
We can help you transform your Accounts Payable department into an additional revenue channel as well as track open class action settlement cases and notify you when we believe you may be eligible to participate in these settlements. Additionally, we can help you lower energy and healthcare cost as well as give hourly employees instant access to their earned wages.
Our team of tax specialists use proprietary software to identify local, state, and federal tax incentives available for your company. On average, for a small to mid-size company, we are able to identify over $200,000 in tax-based incentives.
Business expense reductions, revenue gain opportunities and tax incentives, we identify and recover on your behalf, require highly specialized expertise to maximize your benefit capture and to ensure any overcharges found are permanently removed.
As an example, twice a year, Visa and MasterCard update their fee structures which are referenced in documents that are several hundred pages. This is not an area that CPAs or CFOs are trained to work through.
Similarly, specialized tax incentives such as the R&D tax credit are extremely technical and backed by myriads of case law. CPAs do not have the time nor the knowledge to investigate, determine, procure and defend specialized tax incentives such as those in the Section 41 ("Research") Credit.
We are compensated based on a share of the savings identified. There is no charge for our assessment of your business expense reduction savings and tax incentive recapture opportunity. In effect we offer a free business diagnostic. If we don’t find any savings for your business you owe us nothing.
Results
In our experience 9 out of 10 companies can benefit from one or more of our services. Your savings level will depend on what our team determines when they evaluate selected areas of your business.
This depends on the service type. Services that are recurring will continue to deliver savings as long as you are using those services.
Savings from recurring programs will be delivered on an ongoing basis, typically beginning within 3 weeks of our analysis of your business data and verification of benefit level.
Project savings are typically paid out within 30 days of confirmation of your total savings benefit and recovery from the underlying service provider or taxing authority..
