What is the difference between business advisory vs corporate advisory
Corporate advisory has to do more with corporate finance solutions, and how the business is interacting with the external world. This covers things like mergers and acquisitions, raising capital from shareholders, the rules that shareholders will follow and corporate finance solutions the business needs to thrive. Business advisory tends to focus more on aspects of the business that are internal such as its own structures, debt funding from traditional and non-traditional sources, grants, taxation, legal hygiene, bookkeeping, business intellectual property, cash flow management etc.
What is the difference between a business advisor and a business coach?
Business advisors focus on key speciality areas to help technical aspects of your business! This may be finance, legal, accounting etc. Some business advisors are general in nature, but most are specialised. Business coaches focus more on the general themes of a business and the psychology of the business owner.
At Royce Stone Capital because of our corporate advisory, business advisory, finance products & investment solutions we are well placed to provide advice across a number of areas. Additionally, we focus on getting you into the psychology of the top half percent, by helping guide you and above all introducing you to our network of family offices and clients doing up to $100m in revenue.
What is the difference between a business advisor and business consultant?
A business advisor generally has a specialised area of expertise such as accounting, law, finance etc, and is usually governed by some type of industry criteria and qualification to operate. Great business advisors, also have a holistic view on how their area speciality impacts other areas of a business. Business advisors can also have general knowledge.
A business consultant is a less formal advisor, and may not necessarily be governed by an regulatory practices or standard. In saying this though several business consultants can carry specialised qualifications etc and deep areas of expertise.
Most business advisors will advise a business for a prolonged period, and maybe the whole lifespan of a business. Whereas a consultant is typically brought in on a short to medium term basis.
What is the role of a business advisor?
A business advisor usually specialises in a certain field such as accounting, law, finance, tax, etc and their role is to provide specific advice regarding that area. However, many business advisors fail at seeing the broader picture, and how their advice can impact other areas of their clients business. This is why you also need to make sure your business advisor looks at things holistically.
More importantly great business advisors will help grow your business, and will help you to see things that you haven't seen before. As time passes, it is getting harder and harder to find business advisors that have the depth and breadth of real world experience to provide you with such insights. Luckily at Royce Stone Capital, we have just that.
What makes a good business advisor?
There are many business advisors in the market today from accountants, insolvency experts, lawyers and finance professionals. However, what really makes a good business advisor, is their ability not just to provide pigeon hole advice but broader advice to help your business grow!
Additionally, great business advisors, should have great networks! Networks that help to rapidly solve your problems, provide unorthodox solutions and more importantly networks to help increase your business revenues!
Anyone can get a degree, a few years of experience and claim to be a business advisor!
But how many have pushed the edge? How many have raised capital, helped with business restructures and created new financial products to provide liquidity to their clients to get them out of trouble?
Not many!
At Royce Stone Capital, because we work with family offices, wholesale investors, PE firms, law firms and a range of business clients we can do things that most business advisors can't! We have networks that most want but can't have.
This is power that comes from being part of the Royce Stone Capital family.
