Telecommunications Company
"We are writing to express our appreciation and satisfaction for the work performed by the consultants of George S. May International Company over these past few months. During their four-month tenure, the consultants completely restructured the company's organizational team, putting in place a management structure that enables us to maximize our efforts throughout the company. They also implemented a measurement system that focuses on performance and ensures that the goals set are being accomplished. Thanks to their efforts, we are now reaching our 24-hour turnaround-shipping mandate and now have a management structure in place that allows for effective communication throughout the company."

Manufacturing Company
"During their time in our company your people produced a number of tools that will greatly assist us. We were given job descriptions for all of our senior personnel that outline very specifically their responsibilities as well as indicate how they will be measured. Your staff suggested a new structure for the company that is more streamlined than the one we had before they arrived. Control documents instituted will give us a much better handle on what is going on and the reporting systems put in place will certainly improve our efficiencies."

Industrial Supply Company
"We would like to express our appreciation for the work that George S. May International Company has completed. There is no question in our minds that the procedures your staff has assisted us in putting in place will help our company operate more efficiently and profitably in all aspects of our business. It has given us the framework with which to grow and be successful well into the 21st century. Without your assistance we believe it would be extremely difficult to continue to be successful in the coming years. We will be more than glad to be a reference for your company at any time. Again, we appreciate the efforts of your company to help companies like ours to better themselves and be 'all that we can be.'"

Financial Services Corporation
"Please be advised that the work performed by your company has been excellent. The various recommendations by your company have not only been realistic but obtainable for our company. I would like to thank your company for providing me with a professional staff. I have been extremely satisfied with the service your company has provided. Thank you again for all your assistance."

Metal Production Corporation
"Many needed changes have been made during the course of this project. Now that key positions have been filled, changes are happening fast. It is nice to see how the new managers understand their roles and supporting the systems developed during this project. Areas where savings have been identified include reducing mistakes in production, improving productivity through monitoring expectations and better handling of materials, training of operators and in correctly shipping orders to customers. The $200,000+ savings identified has already begun to be realized."                           

Electrical Contractor
"The work done was professional and to the point. All recommendations were very specific. The best work performed was on the succession planning. The use of an outside facilitator to relay information had a strong and very desirable effect on the third generation. Hearing a third party say the same thing others have been saying for two years lends credence to the message. If any potential clients need a recommendation about your company, please have them call."             

Computer Consulting Company
"Approximately a month ago we were visited by a representative of the George S. May International Company who made a timely and pertinent proposal for management consulting services that we accepted. This led to one major project, the definition and creation of an effective organization and appropriate documented job description, etc. That project being complete, I quickly requested and authorized a second project relating to building a complete marketing plan for our whole business. Your people worked diligently in producing both useful and substantive documentation leading directly to increased productivity of my business. I have been and remain a satisfied customer."

Cable TV Provider
"The new organizational structure has allowed me to see that we will eventually have time to lay down specific plans for the company that will tie into real budgets. This will improve efficiency and make more appropriate our incentive programs, especially at a management level. We are also able to handle our employees with logic and fairness with consistent standardized Human Resource procedures. It is important to note that your staff has done an excellent job. They have truly gotten to know the company and the people. This has made their recommendations and procedures much more effective. Their interest in the company and our people has certainly helped get us through this initial time of transition."

Construction Company
"Our company retained your services to gain control over business operations. During the past few years we have experienced rapid growth and increased volume with a decrease in profit margins. George S. May International Company conducted a detailed overview of our operations and made numerous recommendations for improvement. Not only were Employee Handbooks prepared, Job Descriptions written, Budget and Cost Controls put into place, but a Management Training Program has been started. Please feel free to use my company and myself as a reference for your services."

Farm Products Company
"We asked you to consult with us because we needed help to prepare for the next step. We were bound, and could not expand our business. We needed out employees to do more of the business managing. We have better financial planning, budgeting, inventory management, and we will have general accounting on our premises in the future. We set up standards for a more powerful marketing program. You have showed that the improvements don't cost us, they save us, about $250,000 the first year. We are satisfied that you have helped us turn the corner toward a better operation for the future. The changes that you installed are just the beginning."                           

Restaurant
"The training program provided by George S. May International has been a learning experience. I feel that I now have a better understanding of how to operate the restaurant on a day-to-day basis. In addition to some practical insight, the consultant has given me some valuable tools to help meet our goals. He has shown me how to do recipe costs and plate costs. The projected savings will go a long way toward funding our expansion. All in all, I felt the George S. May team was successful in training my sons and I on a host of new procedures that will make the business more successful. The systems of control that he has left in place are extremely valuable."

Bakery & Deli
"All of the "money drain" areas have been identified and programs set in place to stop the bleeding. Sales and advance planning meetings are now held each week to identify operating problems. The elimination of excess inventory and more timely deposits make the cash flow more readily available. The installation of the 'people' programs will make a better, more suitable working environment. I am satisfied with the work and service of the George S. May people. They've allowed me to be more satisfied with the investment of time and money I have put forth in the last 15 years."             

Container Producer
"Things that I have learned from George S. May are to change organizational responsibility, implement job scheduling, place a budgeting system into service, start a whole new accounting system and redo financing for our local bank. These and other changes will show an estimated $222,000 savings to this company. I am most satisfied with the George S. May Company's team and have also enjoyed their company along with the input they have presented."                           

Car Wash Corporation
"Your staff has been instrumental in motivating our people to a new sense of urgency and an overall concern for their individual departments. I know this will show bottom line results very quickly and expect this in itself to be a motivating factor. I am very satisfied with the job your staff has performed. I can already see the impact these changes have begun to make and am very optimistic that the bottom line will reflect an increased profit."

Concrete Company
"We have enjoyed working with your team in analyzing our companies. I have found your people very knowledgeable and competent in this detailed study. They have brought to our attention many areas where improvement is needed and necessary. I sincerely believe if we follow these recommendations we will be more profitable. Your staff was a pleasure to work with and all of our staff is very satisfied with their work."

Window and Door Company
"As we began to experience a decline in profit and an increase in labor, we knew it was time to get some outside help. Your staff was very thorough. As we see these new procedures being implemented, we can sense the excitement in most of the employees' work already. We are very satisfied with the work that has been performed. If your company should need a reference in the future, please do not hesitate to use us. We look with anticipation to our year ahead!"             

Hardware / Home Center
"Initially, we were skeptical of what George S. May International Company was all about when we met with the sales people. It was difficult to understand how an in depth analysis of our operation, lasting three days, could cost a meager $500.00. Upon completion of the analysis, we considered the countless hours, weekends and even months that would be saved by utilizing your staff to help us organize our business. Your staff helped prioritize the necessary tasks, developed methods of quick review of our financial position and our inventory condition or expense structure, etc. We were very satisfied with the quality and quantity of the work performed and would recommend George S. May International Company to others."

Musical Instrument Retailer
"The outline of your team's suggested modifications / improvements seemed to address the important issues in a coordinated manner. These folks worked extremely hard on our behalf. I especially appreciated the team's openness to help us understand and adapt basic business principles to our unique staff and retail environment. The team also played an important part in the 'selling' of new concepts and structures to our somewhat skeptical staff. Each of your consultants has been superb …truly professional in every respect and willing to spend long hours on our behalf. We will anticipate another helpful session in the near future."

Cabinet Manufacturer
"Not only did we get a new budget for 2000 and a revised strategic plan, but we got new practices and procedures that will ensure we continue to move forward as a management team. We also implemented process changes that will improve the productivity of our sales and design staff. The five programs proposed and accepted were implemented effectively by your staff. Our management team has been instructed in the important elements of the procedures and processes. It has been a pleasure working with your staff and we look forward to having her return for the three planned management review sessions."

Manufacturing Company
"As a small business, it is very easy for key people to get lost in the forest of day-to-day business and forget that a company needs structure and cost controls to survive. Your staff has shown us where we have been losing money due to a lack of control and supervision. We no longer want to 'make money by default,' as was happening in the past. By showing where the losses occurred and giving us the tools to correct this, we should be able to realize a substantial savings. Thank you for being available to us. You have left behind very satisfied customers."

Printing Company
"We are very pleased with the consulting that the George S. May International Company has provided to us. Not only do they have these great ideas but also the most important thing is that they implement them in our business. Now we have our company policies and procedures all written down and able to access whenever we need them."
