THE ART OF DOING BUSINESS Oftentimes, healthcare professionals, such as physicians, dentists, veterinarians... truly love their work…but they dislike the "numbers" side of the practice. At Carnick & Company, we have the specialized skills and talent to help healthcare professionals hone in on the business aspects of their operation. Our goal is to help these professionals run a more efficient, profitable practice so they can concentrate on the art of patient care.

At Carnick & Company, our business consulting services are focused on individuals and families who run their own business - small, medium or large. We're here to guide you whether you're starting a new company, wondering about the best exit strategy, or needing to streamline your operations to increase your bottom line. We understand that when you own a business it becomes impossible to separate its financial success from your own. After 35 years, we know business and we know how to efficiently structure a company's operations to maximize profits - and minimize headaches. From business valuation and restructuring, to dealing with all facets of human resources, including employment negotiation, benefits and severance, Carnick & Company will help you successfully drive your business…so it doesn't drive you. SOUND SUCCESS Chuck was a terrific salesman and Donna had a talent for marketing - they were a truly dynamite business couple. Starting out in their garage, they built up an information technology company with millions of dollars in annual sales and more than 100 employees. Like many entrepreneurs, Chuck and Donna grew to despise what had become of their business, with its multiple, overlapping levels of management and overwhelming bureaucracy. They considered selling their company, but knew it would create a huge capital gains tax liability. An insurance agent had suggested the option of creating an irrevocable charitable trust. Because they felt uneasy about giving up control of everything they had worked so hard to accumulate, they turned to us for some sound advice. We simply asked them, "Instead of selling the firm, why not fix it?" Using Carnick & Company as their consulting CFO, they did just that. They were able to cut staff by 40%, make their company 25% more profitable, and increase their own income 200% - all while significantly improving benefits for their employees. In addition, we helped the couple form a charitable foundation to ensure the continuation of their personal values for many, many years into the future.
