Private, Online  "What if...?" Projecting Session

  • Have questions, concerns, worries about your business and its future?
  • Wonder whether a potential course of action makes sense financially?
  • Need to evaluate the pros and cons of an opportunity?
  • Or...??
Here's the answer: a private, confidential "What if...?" Projecting Session with Pat and Dick. (Some call this "retail financial modeling." It is one of Outcalt & Johnson's specialties.)

All it takes is a phone, an internet connection, and about an hour. 
Play "what if...?" and take advantage of their proprietary online retail projecting calculators - without having to enter any numbers yourself! 

You sit back and review the results. See how your plans "pencil out" financially. 

Get in-depth feedback from Pat and Dick. Apply your judgment. Then you make your decisions.

And best of all, enjoy peace of mind!

As a business owner, I have worked with Dick Outcalt and Pat Johnson on a number of high level projects. 

The team of Outcalt/Johnson has a deep understanding of what is important for success in retail. 

They are strategic thinkers and creative problem solvers. They have developed a number of unique tools that allow any retail owner/manager to better understand and manage their business.

I don't know of anyone else with a stronger commitment to, and understanding of, the world of retailing.

How it works.
After you have reserved and scheduled your session and executed our Confidentiality Agreement, you send in two things: 
  • your financial statement for the most recent year (Income Statement and Balance Sheet);
  • a summary of total sales by month.
Once we are all logged in to the online meeting session, on to the projecting! (Pat and Dick do all the data entry for you. You get to concentrate on the output.) 
Immediately, we all see the results of the proprietary Retailers 3-in-1 INTEGRATED Calculator: 
  • Will there be a profit? 
  • How much inventory (maximum) should we bring in each month? 
  • Will we have enough cash to pay our bills on time?
Then, the "What if...?" discoveries begin. 
You suggest alternatives. Change sales? Margins? Cut expenses? Raise turns? What about dating?

We'll make those changes in the 3-in-1 Calculator; you look at those results. 

Compare and contrast the outcomes. Very quickly, your choices begin to sort out, while new choices emerge! And Pat and Dick are there as a sounding board for you.

Have a plan you like? Great! We'll print it out as a pdf file, and email it to you on the spot.
I have worked with the Outcalt/Johnson team spanning over twenty years as CEO of two different businesses. 

Their understanding of the retail industry in all of its forms and their strategic thinking coupled with their personable style and approach resulted in dramatic improvements to our bottom lines.
