We are strong believers that the success of most companies depends on the competence and diligence of the people that work there.
Running a successful business is about using the right tools for the job and using resources in the most efficient way possible. In the early days, businesses don’t always have this luxury as it’s all hands on deck. Having an experienced partner on hand who can provide specific managerial and operational skills is a real asset during these formative times.
Flaxlands Management creates partnerships between small business owners and talented professionals willing to be rewarded with equity in a potentially successful business.
However we are not just middlemen. We regard an active role in the management of our partner companies as a pre-condition of any partnership that we take. Before we form any partnerships, we work with all the stakeholders to assess the viability of the business, the targets and the ambitions. We also document clearly defined responsibilities and agree not only what constitutes success, but also the consequences of failure.
Small business owners choose Flaxlands Management because they believe in a well structured, partnership orientated approach. They also appreciate our investment, management and operational experience with start-up and early stage companies. Of course, not charging professional fees also helps – like our business partners, we only reap the benefits of success!
