You have a dream business concept? How can a Business Strategy Consultant Help You?

Many of us, especially NRIs, have a dream of having an own business back home. This dream can be an individual’s dream or it can be the dream of a group of individuals.

It begins with an idea, an opportunity that you feel that has scope in say, Kerala, but then it does not grow beyond that point. You end up talking about it to your friends and relatives, but it does not move beyond that point.

Usually you get stuck,

1. Not sure if there is real scope for this business concept

2. Even if you have data supporting the scope for your business concept, you don’t have the tools (reports etc.) to get the investors etc.

3. Even if you have investors ready, you don’t have the team to implement this project for you. Especially some projects will require 2-3 years for the construction itself. And you can’t leave your job overseas to sit and watch as each bits of the project gets together

This problem can be overcome, if you hire a Strategy Consultant.

A strategy consultant is a person, who studies the feasibility (market and financial), and draws a master plan, and engages other specialized consultants, architects, contractors and vendors to ensure the effective implementation of the project. This way, you can rest assured that an expert in implementing the project is handling your work.

In construction intensive projects, you don’t have to wait for the construction to be completed to start other works. In fact many works have to go simultaneously like branding tools development, branding, PR, recruitment, staff training, customer identification, capital raising, investor management etc. (varies based on the business).

You can join in and take charge when the business is ready for operation. The role of a Strategy Consultant does not end there. You can employ him to monitor the performance of the business as well, to ensure the progress is as per the plan, and if not suggest solutions.

Teach the public about it's importance is difficult. Giving some live examples will help to get a clear picture.

Greetings!

Cultural change should happen among the people rather than blaming the government. It is time for introspection and entrepreneurial development.

Thanks Jabir for the post. For your bicycles business, the strategy consultants role will be to position your business model in a competitive position, tactically (short term) and strategically (long term).
That is, how can you get quick wins as you start (can be differentiating your product from competitors, or the way you present it, your ways of getting investors, better staff, better customers etc) and the long term success of your business (planning for future competitions, diversification, growth etc)
The capital size of the venture and the vision of the promoters are relevant when engaging a strategy consultant. Consultants will not be able to help if it’s a very small project, due to capital constraints.
