The Business Health Check Assessment provides an in-depth look at each area of the business, whilst highlighting those areas that require focus. The results provide an action plan and when the assessment is run at the start of a project and again at the end, they will show where the improvements have been made and any areas that still require attention.	The Entrepreneurial Assessment which highlights certain characteristics that are found in true entrepreneurs.  It is not designed to identify those who shouldn't start in business but to help each individual understand themselves more fully so that the type of business they start fits their character.	The New Business Assessment which takes the entrepreneur through a series of sections relevant to starting and running a business.  It will help them to form an action plan and to start to understand the areas of running a business that they are both good and not so good at.  This then enables them to focus their efforts accurately and build a successful business.
This Assessment has been designed by professional HR consultants who specialise in assisting companies develop their training needs analysis processes. It is a general assessment that can be adapted for a particular type of business and will provide an outline of the areas that you need to consider when developing training programmes. It can also be used alongside the appraisal process and indeed the induction process.  You can develop your own assessments in this area to help streamline the personal development activities within a business.	Sales are very different from marketing and people often mix the two.  The sales assessment shows what is required from a sales person, whether it be a team of sales people being assessed or an individual running their own business.  It is all very well having extremely good sales techniques, but if the support is not available it doesn't matter how good the sales people are, they will encounter problems. The sales assessment looks at all areas of sales from planning and communication through to clients and services.	This assessment provides a thorough overview of all marketing within a business, from the planning aspect to how they carry out their marketing and look after their customers.  Results provide a rich picture showing areas that are in need of attention.  This enables those using the assessment to focus their attention on these areas ensuring all marketing activities have a profound impact on the business.
Every company strives to look after their customers, however, as more customers come on board it can be difficult to keep track of how well services and products are being delivered and received by their customers. The customer care model looks at every aspect of customer care and recommends you also run an assessment with staff to ensure they understand what is required from them when dealing with customers. Assessments can be run as they are, or changed to fit your particular type of business.	There are distinct differences between Managers and Leaders and both are required to build a successful business. The Management and Leadership assessment template can be used as it is or you can use it as a template to change to fit individual requirements. It will provide a framework from which to develop unique assessment which may be changed for different departments or, in the case of trainers, different clients and industries.	Those businesses that plan to succeed through effective use of information technology are able to stay ahead of their competition. Businesses that overcomplicate their IT systems cause problems for themselves, and those who don't embrace technology fall behind. Many businesses buy what they think suits their purposes but don’t ask their staff what they need, the result being over complicated systems that cause problems through lack of understanding and an inability to use them effectively, The IT assessment takes the technology out of IT and provides a plain English assessment into how effective systems are, together with how well people are able to understand them.
A unique assessment which can be used with organisations who have many branches to ascertain how well they understand and promote their brand or by consultants who specialise in developing corporate brands for their clients.	Developed by professionals and is created to ascertain the level of knowledge an owner or manager has about the financial aspect of their business.   The information gathered from the assessment enables an accurate understanding of the financial aspect within a client's business and match their services accordingly.	The Recession Survival Assessment is for those smaller businesses who want to identify the areas of business that are open to miss-management during an economic downturn and make sure they do not fall into any pitfalls. It also provides Accountants with a tool to assist their clients in understanding what the pitfalls can be and work with them to ensure they avoid them.
