PRO-Associates Business Consulting
Specialists in marketing and sales to help with your business development strategies
PRO Associates is the business consulting arm of Professional Resources Organization, LLC. The overall goal of all consulting engagements is to help the client become more successful. The role of the PRO Associates consultants varies significantly depending on the needs of the client. We do not use a cookie-cutter approach to handling the client’s requirements.
If you are not totally satisfied with your existing strategies and plans perhaps it is time to gain a new perspective on the business. PRO Associates have the experience and skills to guide you through the important strategic planning process. We can help to create workable specific actionable plans and initiatives. We have a hands-on approach to consulting and we assist in the implementation to help assure your success. If your staff is already stretched thin with their daily activities we can provide the resources to help implement the new initiatives you need to move out in front of the rest of the pack.
PRO-Associates Interim Management
Add to your staff without adding to your permanent payroll
Many business owners and Chief Executive Officers are thriving by tapping into interim sales and marketing leadership where they can access talent and expertise to meet today’s needs and the challenges of tomorrow. The skills and experience of PRO Associates are available for these interim, part-time, or project roles as needed. We are available to help you build and run your sales and marketing departments on a temporary or part-time basis. You get the expertise you need and it is typically for much less than the fully loaded cost of a permanent manager. We can be part of your team for long-term or short-term engagements depending on your needs.
