Business architects improve business design to yield higher profits, better
performance



NEW YORK, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- After serving as a corporate advisor to
individual clients, Chris Carey has formalized his practice with the official
launch of Chris Carey Advisors LLC (www.chriscareyadvisors.com).  Highly
regarded as a business architect, Carey is supported by a multi-disciplinary
team to create comprehensive business solutions for small and mid-sized
companies. Chris Carey Advisors offers business advisory services, banking and
financing consulting, mergers and acquisitions advisory, and turnaround
expertise.

Carey leverages existing resources and applies proprietary measurement and
reporting systems to increase revenues, profits and cash flow.  He has
developed and employs a five-step methodology that assists small and mid-sized
companies to boost profits in the recession.  Carey, who has a substantial
track record as an entrepreneur and CEO, building and leading start-ups and
established companies, also works with distressed companies to implement
turnarounds.  

"Every business is a machine built on a blueprint, a plan designed to produce
a certain outcome," Carey said.  "Most outcomes can be linked to historical
patterns.  If a company has a history of marginal profits, it will continue to
struggle in the future unless you modify the design.  If you can change the
design, you can change the outcome.  

"We think of ourselves as business architects.  We work with entrepreneurs,
business owners and CEOs on business or process redesign, using existing
resources and our proven measurement and reporting process to increase profits
and improve performance," he said.  "In particular, we've had a great deal of
success with distressed companies and those wishing to grow or facilitate a
liquidation event."

Carey's methodology involves a five-step process that yields a thorough,
concrete and measurable picture of the business.  Once that picture is
evident, he creates and executes action plans to increase profitability.   A
key differentiator of Chris Carey Advisors is that the firm works closely with
clients to implement the action plans, producing measurable results.

For one client, a company that was marginally profitable with little cash
flow, Carey's initiatives increased revenues 55% and boosted profitability
660% over a year and half period.  In another example, the company was losing
both money and customers.  Carey turned the company around within eight
months, restored it to profitability and staunched the customer attrition.  

Prior to founding his firm, Carey launched and headed a software company that
offered a client relationship management system for auto dealerships using
wireless PDAs.  In three years, the company had signed more than 120 leading
auto dealership groups that used the system in over 200 franchise dealership
locations.  

Previously, Carey was CEO of Datatec Systems, Inc., a technology services
company which had $500,000 in revenues when he joined the firm.  Over the span
of some 25 years, Carey took the company public and built Datatec into one of
North America's largest independent systems implementation firms, with $100
million in revenues and 750 employees in the U.S. and Canada.
