We Work With Your Strategy and Business Advisors

You and your strategy advisor work out plans, design workflows and develop projections across your business. Yet without knowing the full extent of funds that could be available for those tactics, you’ve limited your options.

Dennis Bays of Americore offers niche programs that unlock government programs funds for strategies by you and your business advisors. Best of all, you don’t have to choose between your strategy advisor and Dennis. That’s because Americore works with your business advisors to achieve your goals.  While you enjoy the right processes in new ventures, or align and optimize existing processes and resource allocation, we are working to provide the capital you need.

Added Value to Your Strategic Planners

Often Management consultants and strategic planners are MBAs with decades of corporate experience. While their expertise can be richly beneficial to small business owners, Americore brings valuable addons to enrich your growth strategizing. That’s because we have a program for that too. If your business could use some enhanced growth funding without hidden catches, it’s time to open a conversation.

We Work With Your financial Advisors

The term financial advisor has grown to include multiple facets of business.  But it still comes down to data review and projections regarding the collection of and handling of funds. The results of all that planning will be improved with better cash flow.

At Americore, we facilitate financial planning using options from unique lending services to overlooked grant and other programs.  We have freed up millions of dollars for business entrepreneurs, and want to help you too. These legitimate programs are used by fortune 500 companies, but small to midsize entrepreneurs often don’t realize they’re eligible too.

Americore is experienced with the documentation process for an incredible number of programs. Our services help businesses owners navigate the daunting paperwork required to correctly apply for the appropriate programs. Instead of a declination of funds, an Americore facilitated application turns that declination to approval. Businesses can finally access additional capital previously used only by fortune 500 firms. The difference is seasoned professionals like Dennis Bays of Americore.

How We Work With Your Tax Advisors

Stick around much and you’ll hear us repeat the phrase, “your CPA finds loopholes to benefit your business, we find programs.” Tax advisors are invaluable to small and midsize businesses for their expertise on tax legislation.  It gives them an edge to help clients plan and handle their taxes as efficiently and affordably as possible. In the course of doing that work they often use tax deductions and exemption. Americore recommends tax incentive programs that include deductions, rebates and more. For instance, have you received $2500 per employee because you offer health insurance? If not, you might want to learn more about a different kind of benefit that pushes preventative medicine while saving employers money and offering cash back.

It is one of many programs at Americore that we have become intimately familiar with in order to help your tax advisors plan even more effectively than in the past. As we said earlier in this article, we work with teams of  business advisors for many small and midsize business professionals.

Call our office at 747-224-8110 or contact us here. Tell your Americore Group representative  what you’re looking for, and we’ll tell you how we can help you make that happen.

What a Financial Advisor for Business Knows

As a financial advisor for business or individuals, Dennis has to work with clients to reveal their values and goals.  He knows that not defining values, creating goals and planning, is a sure recipe for falling short of targets. After years of watching certain programs create wealth for his clients, Dennis realized some facts should be shared.  There is a better financial future out there, and there are steps that can help you reach it.

Define Your Values

Values are those qualities and principles in life that are desirable to you. Before you set goals, figure out what you want out of life or out of your business venture. Without that first step, it is impossible to create a sound financial strategy.

Before a financial advisor for business gives recommendations, they start by going over which investment options are attractive to you.  This is one of many methods of discovering your values.  You can facilitate this process by asking yourself: what is important about money to me?  Values have different meanings for different people but are always based on an emotional response.  Values like independence, freedom, achievement, balance, family care, making a difference, security and self-worth are all powerful emotional ideas.  And they are all responses to the question of what money means to people.

Set Goals

You reflected on your values, those intangible emotional powerhouses.  Goals are the tangible results from your values.  Your goals can change along the way, but setting them creates the framework for your financial plan for your future.  We recommend clients lay out each goal in writing and then go back and rearrange by order of priority.

This is the guideline for you and your financial planner. Too often we hear 30-somethings state a goal of retiring at 40. When we look at the financials, we see a 401K and a small life insurance policy that doesn’t support those goals. If you have aggressive goals, you need to prepare for them aggressively.

When setting your goals, keep them realistic and specific such as: I want to retire December 31, 2032.  Discuss goals with your Financial advisor for business and personal goals.  If you are a business owner, you will need to plan how to reach retirement by your goal date, and your exit strategy. Once you and your financial advisor know the goals, you can develop a plan.

Map out a Plan

If values are intangible ideals and goals are the tangible results of values, then plans are the roadmap to goal achievement.  By working out how to reach your goals, you make it more likely to reach them.  The how may be investing more, using more grants and tax credits, or it may be more structured allocation of funds.  Any plan you work out with your financial advisor should include smaller goals along the way. 

For instance, if Jim wants to go on a trip with his wife when he retires, he will need to grow enough funds to pay for the trip.  If the trip will cost $10,500 , Jim will need to set aside around $292 monthly, or $3,500 a year.  By breaking the bigger goal into smaller amounts, Jim can check how he is advancing toward his goal and make adjustments before it is too late. If by the second year, Jim realizes he missed contributing to the goal, he may need to up the contribution, change the destination or figure out how to bring in more funds for the trip.

By making these changes, when Jim retires in three years, he will have the money to take their celebratory trip.  They won’t have to deplete other accounts as a reaction to missing the financial goal. Your goals may be bigger, but the concept is similar.  Set the goal and make a plan to reach it.  Then set smaller targets so you can measure your progress to the bigger goal.

Check Your Current Financial Status

Four simple questions will give you the key to your current financial status.  Just like your google maps, you can’t get directions on how to reach your destination unless you share your current location.  Gather your financial information and answer these questions as fully as possible.

1. Do you have enough money set aside for emergencies?
2. Are you accumulating enough wealth to achieve your goals?  If you are retired, this question may be, “Are you accumulating enough wealth to sustain your quality of life?”
3. Have you accumulated too much debt? 
4. Do you have enough insurance to protect your plan?

Emergencies, debt, illness and injuries as well as unforeseen claims can destroy any financial plan if not included in the plan.  You can’t prevent them, but you can set aside funds to alleviate the loss.
