Consulting Services

Businesses face many challenges outside of taxes or financial statement services.

Luckily, your CPA is more than just a tax expert! With multiple touch-points throughout the year, we can help you develop an annual strategic plan to pinpoint issues and capitalize on growth opportunities.

At Dedekian, George, Small & Markarian, we believe that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to business. That’s why our professionals sit down one-on-one with their business clients to gather a complete picture of their needs and then build and implement a strategic plan tailored to their situation. Preparing to sell, expand operations, transition leadership, improve efficiencies, or simply want to meet for a general business brainstorming session? We’ve successfully helped our clients through the same situations and more!

Our clients range from new business start-ups to established organizations in various industries, including construction, agriculture, and manufacturing. Their needs often include assigning a value to their business for a potential sale, a full review of their financials to ensure optimization, resolving shareholder disputes, and a critique of their business plan or internal controls. For more than 40 years, we have been helping our clients by providing a clear and accurate financial scope that will contribute to the success of your business.

Our services include:

  • Business valuation
  • Cost segregation studies
  • Employee benefit plans
  • Litigation support
  • Succession planning
  • Financial planning
  • Merger and acquisition services
  • Risk analysis
  • Estate planning
  • Retirement planning
  • New business formation
  • Banking financing
  • Transactional services

The DGSM Difference

When you work with our competent team, you’ll receive strategic advice and planning with emphasis on:

Relationship Building

The professionals at our company go beyond the service to build relationships with clients and their families. This allows them a full scope of what is needed for recommendations, which they can then provide when requested.

Communication

Client communication is vital when offering guidance and strategies. Our professionals are proactive about outreach and meeting to gather the information to help your strategy take shape.

Proactive Planning

Businesses need a CPA that identifies areas of concern and opportunities. By working with our clients year-round, we’re able to call attention to specific areas and plan accordingly, rather than react to the aftermath.

Having a network of advisors and experts you can trust is critical to running a successful business. When you work with DGSM, you have unlimited access to our directory of reputable experts, which means you can work through your to-do list efficiently and with peace of mind knowing you are in good hands.

As your trusted strategic partner, we promise to provide clients with prompt, attentive service exceeding expectations. Our 90% client retention speaks for itself and is proof that you can count on us, too!
