SCORE Business Counselors Helps Business to Grow and Succeed
SCORE business counselor Chet Ross helps search marketing company to tackle the challenges of getting a new business established.
Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) April 29, 2005 -- SCORE business counselors in Phoenix
led by Chet Ross were instrumental in getting a successful business off to a
running start. Elixir Systems are now established as a leader in the field of
natural search engine optimization industry. They credit their rapid two year
growth to the excellent counseling they received from SCORE when they were
getting started.
Elixir Systems was established in 2003. To deal with
the challenges of launching a new company, they solicited the advice of SCORE,
the resource partner of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA).
“When we started I knew we would be needing help in a variety of areas –
business planning, financing and marketing.” said Fionn Downhill of Elixir
Systems. “But money to hire a consultant was just not available. So, I got on
line, input “business consulting” as keywords, and, lo and behold, up popped the
website for SCORE.”
Elixir attended some of their training sessions and
then contacted SCORE’s Phoenix office for its free business counseling. They
were assigned to SCORE counselor Chet Ross, a specialist in internet and general
business planning. After more than ten meetings with Chet Elixir they developed
a more comprehensive business and marketing plan and a strategy for procuring
additional financing to support their projected rapid growth.
With
confidence and direction generated by growing sales and a business plan as a
road map, Elixir invested in outside office space and increased staffing. This
initiative proved successful, as it has enhanced the company’s image and
improved its ability to attract larger businesses as clients.
“In a very
short time Elixir Systems has gained national recognition, and their
international reputation is expanding.” said Chet Ross of SCORE. I believe they
are now rated the number one web optimization firm located in Arizona.
Internationally, they have clients around the world including the Far East and
Europe.”
Elixir Systems credits SCORE counseling with helping them to
focus their business. They continue to work with Chet Ross and others at SCORE,
as needed. This includes ongoing business challenges such as meeting the
company’s growth related finance requirements.
