                          BUSINESS SUPPORT TO SMALL BUSINESSES

                          Essency Consulting provides support and advice to Small to Medium Enterprises

                          (SMEs), focusing on establishing and maintaining sound business practices.

                          Although this support and advice takes various forms, depending on the specific company

                          requirements, Essency generally undertakes an initial business analysis or 'health check' on

                          the business and discusses further options with the business owners.

                          GENERAL BUSINESS ANALYSIS

                          Predominantly focused on the SME market, Essency uses a proven methodology, an extensive

                          network of business analysis and management consultants, and over 20 years of commercial

                          and business management experience to provide thorough and appropriate analysis of business

                          operations. Based on an initial  free constion of 1-2 hours, Essency consultants are able to develop 

                          a shared understanding of some of the issues facing the business, and, depending on the nature of

                          these issues or problems, can provide further consultancy assistance and advice. If mutual agreement

                          is reached at the completion of the initial interview, a more detailed 2-day business analysis (BA) is

                          undertaken and feedback provided to the contracting party. Further consultancy services are available

                          should the situation warrant, and if so, Essency can access a UK-wide network of Business Consultants to

                          provide either generalist, or specialist consultancy services
