| Welcome to Cape Horn Strategies,
Inc. |
|
Founded in 1998, Cape Horn Strategies Inc., helps CEOs of small
independent software vendors, from start-ups to mature companies,
reach $100 million in revenue.
Among others, we provide these six services:
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
| 1. Overcome Growth Choke-Points |
|
|
| |
It is systemic in the growth of a software company that it will hit
a wall in growing their revenue. We help the company become unstuck and lay a foundation for their next leg of growth. |
| |
............................................................................................................ |
|
|
| 2. Develop And Align A Strategic Planning Process |
|
|
| |
We develop with you a strategic planning process that aligns your executive's and employees actions with your business strategy. |
| |

|
|
| 3. Monthly/Bi-Monthly Strategy Consultations |
|
|
| |
Some CEOs find valuable meeting with us on a monthly or bi-monthly basis to review both strategy and execution issues. |
| |
............................................................................................................ |
|
|
| 4. Software Strategy Audit |
|
|
| |
We review a company's strategy--and its execution--to compare
it against best practices. We conclude with a set of
recommendations for improvement. |
| |
........................................................................................................... |
|
| |
|
|
| 5. CEO Dashboard |
|
|
| |
Too many companies operate their business without objective data. It's like flying a 747 without having an instrument panel in the cockpit. We develop a set of metrics by which you can run your business and develop an actionable a process to use these metrics to provide continuous business improvement. |

|
| 6. Facilitate Strategy Sessions |
|
|
| |
We review a company's strategy--and its execution--to compare it against best practices. We conclude with a set of recommendations for improvement. |

|
|
|
And during the past four years, we have researched why only a select few software companies-those on its
Sustained Success Honor Roll list
continue to rack up year after consecutive year of profitable growth: what do they know that 97% of the industry doesn’t. |
