Strategic Planning
Camdore’s approach to strategic planning encourages clients to focus on today’s challenges while incorporating a long-term perspective. By identifying a company’s best value building opportunities and developing an understanding of how its current performance compares with its full potential,we help clients identify marketplace opportunities, establish strategic goals, and track its systems to ensure results.
Because we know that business is always in flux, as part of our comprehensive services we also advise CEO's and business leaders on an on-going basis.
Revenue Generation
Revenue generation is one of the primary concerns of many of Camdore’s clients. To quickly and thoroughly organize a revenue search, we provide each customer with a comprehensive review that covers customer management, product and channel management, sales and marketing effectiveness, and pricing and market position in relation to competitors.
Our revenue search studies pinpoint where a company is losing revenue – whether through sales inefficiencies, off-target sales efforts, or high customer defection rate. From there, we generate suggestions for new revenues based on distinct competencies, hidden assets, unique skills and processes, and core technologies. Additionally, the study isolates underperforming products, services, and assets that potentially can be eliminated or improved. Customer needs are evaluated and a plan implemented to cost-effectively satisfy these needs. We then create targeted revenue enhancement programs, both for the short and the long term.
Cost Management
When companies face immediate cost pressures from fluctuating market conditions, new competition, regulatory changes, or new technologies, we help them get back on track. using a variety of tools to perform rigorous analysis of a client’s overall financial position, Camdore quantifies cost reduction with a thorough presentation of realized savings.
Camdore will also evaluate available options to help increase efficiency and productivity, including the use of IT and
outsourcing opportunities for non-core competencies. If needed, we’ll help identify the right outsourcing partners. We can also help identify local partners for companies interested in expansion or foreign investment in India.
Quarterly Reviews
A vital follow up tool provided as part of our consulting services, quarterly reviews comprise an independent, thorough, and honest assessment of a company’s strengths and weaknesses. In the review process, we thoroughly
examine financial statements, marketing and sales strategies, and overall business strategies—including business plans, marketing materials, and other key documents. We also provide one time reviews as a diagnostic tool for companies who need an independent assessment.
Turnaround Management
For various reasons, a client may find itself in a temporary situation where the business is not performing at an optimum level or, even worse, has experienced financial deterioration as a result of an economic downturn, market shift, insufficient working capital, new or larger competition, eroding margins, or operating losses.
Camdore can quickly implement a well-crafted turnaround strategy. Typically, this process involves reducing costs, restructuring finances, and redefining strategic objectives.
We also assist in identifying high revenue generating and high margin products and services.
Organizational Effectiveness
In today’s global marketplace, companies that can take quick,purposeful advantage of new opportunities have a decided competitive edge. The key to that action is organizational effectiveness. We believe the most effective companies concentrate on building a cohesive system that supports a results driven company. Camdore helps define clear decision roles, a system of accountability, and programs to develop and deploy talent. We also measure the effectiveness of internal communications and help in deploying effective tools to improve it. Camdore can provide comprehensive organizational transformation and realignment to meet the needs of management.
Marketing and Business Development
Well executed marketing programs drive enhanced revenues and profits.
Our goal is to help our clients achieve higher sales revenues, increased market penetration, and obtain a more favorable position with both current and prospective customers. We start by mapping our client’s market share and profits relative to its competitors. Using that information, we help clients create product portfolios, develop overall strategy, manage sales channels, rework pricing strategies, and allocate appropriate resources. The result is a marketing plan that combines short and long term sales and business development goals with innovative strategies for market and product differentiation.
Customer Management
Customer satisfaction is critical to the success of any business.
Studies have shown that a mere 5% increase in customer loyalty can grow a company’s profitability by 40% to 95%. With that increase in mind, Camdore develops targeted strategies to help clients:
• create or enhance value proposition offered to customers

• gain new customers and ensure greater market share
• design mystery shopping and quality assurance programs that provide critical customer feedback, which in turn
provides management with powerful information to improve performance

The result is happy employees with a low turnover rate leading to enhanced customer service and retention.
