Supporting Startups

The key advantage of CEO Consult is that the managing director, Luca Montaldo, will engage directly with you throughout the contract to develop your new business’ strategy and to guide you through each of the following steps:

When thinking about starting a business, the most important first step is to determine its structure. Luca will work with you to evaluate all options and select the best structure for your business. This is such a crucial step because your business structure will impact many aspects, including your personal liability, the protection of your assets, set-up and ongoing costs. The structure will also determine various regulatory requirements your company will need to meet.
To define your strategy to achieve your goals, you must prioritise your objectives and predict possible challenges. With more than 25 years as an international business leader, Luca can share with you a range of expertise and practical insights to help you develop a successful business plan. This includes identifying the best options for finance and how to successfully secure it. During this process, you will identify your export strategy (if needed) and define a marketing plan.

You need to register your business according to your country’s legislation to obtain a tax number and register your business name, and you need to understand what taxes must be paid before starting the business. Depending on the nature of your business, you might need a permit or licence to operate.

How you organise your finances is critical to your success. Setting up the budget and systems for managing the cash flow, payments and invoices will give you a clear vision of how to achieve your goals. How payments are made must facilitate the preparation of a cash flow statement to monitor day-to-day operations. And, of course, the pricing strategy is fundamental to the sustainability of your business. It is crucial to have an in-depth understanding of market trends and competitors’ positioning for optimal pricing prospects.

Evaluating business insurance policies can protect your business from unpleasant situations and protect your assets, clients, employees, earnings and the business owners. Depending on the country where the business will operate, there may be compulsory insurance to purchase. It is very important to protect your business idea and brand. This is your intellectual property and must be protected together with all of your patents, trademarks, designs and copyright materials.

If you decide to hire personnel, CEO Consult will assist you in this process, including determining the different types of roles that need to be filled, selecting the most appropriate candidates and taking the lead during interviews if appropriate.
