VERTESS provided outstanding strategic consulting services that resulted in significant operational and financial progress for our organization over a two-year period. In particular, they helped us to unleash the potential of our managers and other employees as we dealt with a challenging funding environment. They were also a trusted advisor as I was making critical executive decisions that would shape our future. In short, the results were outstanding and highly recommend VERTESS for helping you to see the future and acting on it.

Gompers was presented with an acquisition opportunity on short notice and we turned to David Coit and the VERTESS team to help us with guidance and an assessment in order to determine how to proceed. They immediately stepped in with a very professional analysis and guidance which enabled us to proceed with a transaction that has considerable value for our future and long term goals. I can’t say enough about the high quality of their work and I would highly recommend them to anyone in similar circumstances.

The VERTESS team advised me with a very professional, long-term perspective as we negotiated the labyrinth of due diligence and some complexities in the regulatory process. The end result was so positive that I enlisted their services in pursuing the acquisition of another company. I have no hesitation in referring VERTESS to other perspective buyers or sellers.

VERTESS' professional acumen is without question, and their vita suggests a shrewd and thoughtful approach to a company’s management, development, and supervision. Decades of experience—coupled with a genuine humanistic approach to business, employees, and clients—made VERTESS the perfect fit to assist in our retooling of current practices. They are sensitive to diverse management styles and personalities, and attempt to guide those they consult using an introspective approach. Both my partner and I use VERTESS' guidance as a personal roadmap for consideration as we decide approaches that best suit our respective styles. SEEK Arizona has gained much in our few months of working with VERTESS as they quickly and effectively targeted areas to improve upon and provided a framework in which to do so. We look forward to maintaining a professional and personal relationship with VERTESS, and would not hesitate to utilize their services as future needs arise. In addition, I enthusiastically recommend VERTESS to any individuals or companies needing an experienced, active consultant to analyze current needs and future opportunities for growth.

VERTESS acted as a trouble shooter and temporary manager with extreme confidence and vision. They came into an organization that needed to rebuild and redesign for success. VERTESS laid a business foundation that has allowed me, as the new Director, to move swiftly into a trajectory of success. They are very skilled at making difficult decisions without the emotional over lay that can get in the way of positive solutions. VERTESS inspired a sense of confidence and self-reliance from all constituents that were involved in the program. They continued as a coach and consultant to keep us on target and moving forward. I highly recommend them as an executive coach and organizational consultant. They cut through weeds and let a 1000 flowers bloom.
