EXECUTIVE SERVICES
Federal Government statistics indicate that 90 percent of new businesses fail within five years. Most such companies succumb because the entrepreneur lacks expertise in critical business skills. Smaller companies cannot usually afford to hire top level people necessary to manage the wide variety of functions a business must perform well.
By outsourcing the administrative and support functions to Athene, a business leader can focus on the things that really matter – marketing, positioning, sales, quality, raising capital, team building, leadership, monitoring the competition, and so on. This will obviously not guarantee success, but statistics indicate that it greatly increases the likelihood.
Athene can increase the chances of success even more by providing access to the services of experienced, successful business entrepreneurs, lawyers, finance VPs and administrative VPs. Most small companies can’t afford to employ people with these skills, and certainly can’t justify their high salaries when their services are not required on a full-time basis. Athene puts these people within reach. You only pay for the actual time they are working on your business issues - but they aren’t just consultants. They are part of the Athene team and as a result, they really get to know your business and you get to know them. They function as part of your organization on an as needed basis.
