Entrepreneur and Corporate Advisor Chris Carey Forms Chris Carey Advisors

Business architects improve business design to yield higher profits, better performance

NEW YORK, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- After serving as a corporate advisor to individual clients, Chris Carey has formalized his practice with the official launch of Chris Carey Advisors LLC (www.chriscareyadvisors.com). Highly regarded as a business architect, Carey is supported by a multi-disciplinary team to create comprehensive business solutions for small and mid-sized companies. Chris Carey Advisors offers business advisory services, banking and financing consulting, mergers and acquisitions advisory, and turnaround expertise.

Carey leverages existing resources and applies proprietary measurement and reporting systems to increase revenues, profits and cash flow. He has developed and employs a five-step methodology that assists small and mid-sized companies to boost profits in the recession. Carey, who has a substantial track record as an entrepreneur and CEO, building and leading start-ups and established companies, also works with distressed companies to implement turnarounds.

"Every business is a machine built on a blueprint, a plan designed to produce a certain outcome," Carey said. "Most outcomes can be linked to historical patterns. If a company has a history of marginal profits, it will continue to struggle in the future unless you modify the design. If you can change the design, you can change the outcome.

"We think of ourselves as business architects. We work with entrepreneurs, business owners and CEOs on business or process redesign, using existing resources and our proven measurement and reporting process to increase profits and improve performance," he said. "In particular, we've had a great deal of success with distressed companies and those wishing to grow or facilitate a liquidation event."

Carey's methodology involves a five-step process that yields a thorough, concrete and measurable picture of the business. Once that picture is evident, he creates and executes action plans to increase profitability. A key differentiator of Chris Carey Advisors is that the firm works closely with clients to implement the action plans, producing measurable results.

For one client, a company that was marginally profitable with little cash flow, Carey's initiatives increased revenues 55% and boosted profitability 660% over a year and half period. In another example, the company was losing both money and customers. Carey turned the company around within eight months, restored it to profitability and staunched the customer attrition.

Prior to founding his firm, Carey launched and headed a software company that offered a client relationship management system for auto dealerships using wireless PDAs. In three years, the company had signed more than 120 leading auto dealership groups that used the system in over 200 franchise dealership locations.

Previously, Carey was CEO of Datatec Systems, Inc., a technology services company which had $500,000 in revenues when he joined the firm. Over the span of some 25 years, Carey took the company public and built Datatec into one of North America's largest independent systems implementation firms, with $100 million in revenues and 750 employees in the U.S. and Canada.
