“EZC assisted Eco Outdoor with a range of initiatives including evaluating different local and international expansion initiatives, planning for the launch of a franchise network, the development of franchise agreements and operating processes, refinancing corporate credit facilities and intellectual property protection. Ellis has a strong set of skills and experience across several business disciplines. I would have no hesitation in recommending EZC to any business looking to expand its operations.”
“EZC was engaged by Prospera at a vulnerable time in its development. After stabilising its financial position it worked on improving Prospera’s sales and marketing approach and messaging including redevelopment of its website and compelling case studies.
Throughout the engagement Ellis provided expert advice regarding the operation and funding of a software development company and strong counsel to the Prospera Board.”
“EZC has provided outsourced CFO services to Rose and Jones over a number of years. The business uses the cashflow forecast model developed by EZC to highlight key operational metrics and as a roadmap for future growth. EZC has provided valuable advice and assistance in matching revenues and expenses – in a business with at times lumpy earnings – thereby providing a sound base for increased profitability and aggressive organic growth.
The advice provided by EZC is clear, concise and insightful.”
“Apart from developing high quality, comprehensive business plans EZ Consulting provided valuable advice to assist with the launch of Juuni (subscription feminine hygiene business). The detailed business plan enabled the analysis of potential growth and market penetration rates, optimal product delivery cycles, inventory management, human resource requirements and capital required to support the business at different growth rates.
Ellis is a terrific sounding board and a key strength is his knack of cutting through the BS!”
“Ellis has an excellent ability to break down complex problems and explain them in a manner that suits the particular audience, regardless of their level of experience. He provided wonderful support over a number of years to the PETAA Board and Management across financial management, information technology and executive recruitment. His calm, well-reasoned counsel was often sought and highly valued by PETAA’s Directors.”
