The following case histories provides information both on the scope of Corporate Strategies' consulting practice and its effectiveness. Each of the summary paragraphs below provides a link to a detailed case history (click on the title of the case you want to see).   Case History#1:   Some things we take for granted. For instance, if we increase our gross margin, we expect to decrease gross sales. That’s the trade off. Right? Not necessarily. In this case, we show how we helped a company substantially increase their gross margin while increasing gross sales and decreasing their selling expense.   Case History#2:   Often businesses in difficulty think of additional financing as the solution. Sometimes it is, and we can help those. But sometimes it’s something entirely different, as in this case history.   Case History#3:   Often business owners see a single problem where a multitude of problems actually exists. Then our solution is not providing what the client asks for, but discovering what the client actually needs. This case is a very brief example of just such a situation and what we did about it.   Case History#4:   Things are not always what they seem — as demonstrated in the attached case. Growth is not always real. A loan is not always a loan. And the professionals hired by the company may not always share the owner’s interest. We helped this company deal with things as they were — and return to profitability.   Case History#5:   Sometimes otherwise smart people, like the owner of the business in the attached case, look at the eminent demise of their company and call it a temporary problem. We helped this company deal with the problems before they became terminal and return to profitability.
