What We Do

UrbanFish

Strategy

Strategy is the most important part of your business. As a first step in the strategic planning process we define clear visions and missions for your company that inspire and move all the stakeholders. We identify the must-win battles and development programs within your business to achieve your compelling vision. This is done by recognizing main constraints and ensuring proper resource allocation in order to tackle the bottlenecks and to achieve the main business goals.

We make clear and understandable, easy to communicate strategy documents and other materials so everyone involved can internalize the strategy.

If strategy is the most important part of your business, then execution and tracking the execution is the most important part of the strategy itself. Here comes into play
strategy audits that we conduct across the organization, cool tracking systems and mobile based strategy readiness monitoring package we offer. This allows the top management to have a greater confidence over the actual execution of the strategy. Strategy lives and evolves continuously within the organization. Therefore, it is highly important to carry on the strategy work on regular basis.

This includes conducting continuous research on market environment and new technologies to drive strategic recommendations and evaluating new business opportunities such as M&A, spin-offs, greenfield operations, and even divestments. Correct and robust financial modelling of these strategic alternatives is extremely important, something in which UrbanFish is a real expert.

Market Entries

One of the most important strategic decisions for a company is whether to enter to new markets, namely to totally new geographies. Expansion to new countries might look lucrative due to larger target audience and in many cases even higher purchasing power. However, this might come with a large geographical distance, new currencies, languages that you do not speak, and a complex legal environment.

We have a great deal of experience expanding businesses abroad. Our services include conducting market researches, mapping the potential and conducting legal studies. Based on the findings your goals will be turned into a sound actionable entry plan.

Then we help you to set up the local entities, recruit the teams, train them and build locally compliant HR processes. In practice this means that we execute some key parts of your strategy.
