Support To Entrepreneurs
LarchHill Capital provides strategic support to entrepreneurs. Business is continually changing and moving forward and LarchHill assists entrepreneurs and their team with planning for the business in areas of:
1. Business Strategy
2. Resource and people planning
3. Financing options
LarchHill charges on a project basis for its work, but does so based on the longer term opportunity for involvement with the entrepreneur and the business. While not a requirement, LarchHill would ideally seek mandates that have a reasonable opportunity for the investment of capital alongside the entrepreneur (or his/her successor) as the plan develops. LarchHill Capital has expertise in a wide array of business environments including: Finance, FinTech, Business Services, Education, EdTech, Human Resources, HRTech, Distribution, Manufacturing, and Retail.
Succession Planning
Businesses often suffer from a lack of time and ability to plan for the transition of operation and ownership control. LarchHill has successfully assisted businesses in both harmonious and acrimonious succession planning and execution.
A successful business succession is dependent on many different factors. Understanding the various considerations in choosing a succession path take a methodical process of assessment and analysis. Our unique 10 step process is a comprehensive system that provides an in-depth view into your business and how that integrates with you and your family in an overall succession plan.
There are a lot of different paths to succession, and LarchHill has helped numerous clients find the path that is right for them. Whether it be a long term plan, or something that you want to initiate right away, LarchHill has the expertise and the advisory skills to provide a complete turnkey succession plan or provide assistance to the event for you and your company.
