"Why go it alone"?  This a question we ask of business owners and senior executives when it comes to their telecommunuications.  These companies often use advisors like technology consultants, human resource consultants, accountants, attorney's and more.  The reason for using an advisor is pay for the experience and knowledge that is not on your staff because you WILL pay for it one way or another.  At Brisk Consulting, we have discovered that approximately 80% of companies spending more then $2,000 per month are overspending by at least 20%.  When asked, they respond that they are not comfortable with their understand of the voice and data market and they are confused about the best way to determine the right course for their business.  Futhermose, they admit that they do not have a telecommunications management plan in place.  Instead, they simply react to the problems and situations that arise.  Overall, they do not feel that they do a good job of making the best decisions for their business.  Does this sound like your company?

We offer our consulting services because many of these companies are searching for an unbiased opinion about what their best course of action should be.  They want to pick up the phone and call somebody they've grown to trust (over time), who knows the marketplace and talk to them about their plans, their problems and their options.  Business that fall into one or more of the following three categories below are even more likely to feel that they could use this type of service.

Diverse Locations - When a company is spread across the country or throughout the world, it is difficult to find one company who can service all of their needs.  But the idea of hiring a full-time telecommunications manager may not be justified.  Often times, our consulting services can help you manage these services for a fraction of  what a full-time employee may cost.  When you hire us, you not only get a "primary consultant", you get our entire staff.  If you analyze it from that angle, it is very easy to justify our fees. 

Fast Growth - When a company is growing or changing quickly, there is no time to hire a full-time telecom manager and wait for them to become acclimated to the industry and your business.  Often times,  the correct decisions need to be made quickly.  Since we represent at least seven nationwide telecom carriers as a master agent and the rest of them (that's right, every telecom carrier in the United States) as a sub-agent, it is very easy to do a little research and determine the best course of action at the time.  As you grow, it will be easy to apply previous decisions to new ones in order to keep your telecommunications expenses in line.  Keep in mind, it is very easy for a fast growing company to grow themselves out of business because of out-of-control expenses.

Ongoing Problems  - Sometimes telecommunications problems just won't go away!  Whether the problem is billing or service related, sometimes it takes an expert to resolve the issues.   If these problems are costing your company REAL time and money, it may be time to hire us to get to the bottom of it.  Being a telecommunications agent gives us insights that neither employees nor other consultants may have.  We also have contacts within many of these companies that we can use as resources to solve various types of problems.

We offer several different consulting services, one of which may be the right one to solve your problem.  Our standard fee is $150 per hour and we will also quote work on a project basis and in blocks of time.  There are several siuations where a consulting arrangement is better for the customer than a "free" arrangement.  The key to our consulting services is that we will NOT accept a new client unless we feel confident that we can accomplish the objective.  We make this determination after a free consultation with your senior managment team.  In some cases, we will guarantee the outcome!!  To find out more about any of our services, invite us in for a free consultation by calling (330) 940-3910 or sending an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
