S4X Ventures

The door is open.

The time for complaining about the economy is over.  Whether you are a start-up dealing with business formation issues or a existing company looking for ways to grow your business, it's time to walk through the door.

Business owners need to take a step back from the noise and review the landscape.  Broadly speaking, business are failing and people are losing jobs.  Upon further review, some businesses are failing due to bad management or lack of investing in their infrastructure during the good times.  If your organization is looking to survive or grow, you may want to explore strategies outside of working with banks or grants for funding sources to assist with growth.

For example, one of our clients, a start-up, is working on closing their first round of funding.  They will use the funding to begin production of their product.  In concert with the funding round, they have secured LOIs (Letters of Intent) and other agreements which will generate revenue in their first year.  As a potential solution, we have been approached by and are in talks with several marketing firms which can make the investment.  The marketing firm would be the strategic partner and investor.  The revenues of both companies are projected to benefit from this partnership.

Although we are a business consulting firm based in Indianapolis, we are observing the success of alternative business models from Seattle to South Africa.
