Waste

How predictable is your waste every month?

Variability in your waste from month-to-month makes a big difference to certain service providers.

Is your container size and collection frequency optimized?

Finding a provider that is both cost effective and meets your needs can be challenging.

Are your waste disposal fees changing frequently over the course of the year?

A professional audit of your expenses can get to the bottom of it.

Telecom

Have you conducted a recent usage audit across your telecommunications system?

In many cases, we find inefficiencies and redundancies in the number of lines and features.

Have you considered moving to a Voice over IP platform?

Cloud based telecommunications systems typically provide unique features at lower costs.

Do you know when your current plan automatically renews?

Companies typically only have a 30-day window to make changes to their current contract.

Software as a Service

Are you on top of all your licenses?

It’s all too easy to let seats go unoptimized or unused as your company grows and changes.

Are you paying for more than you need?

Some bundles charge for more than you use. We help you find the solution best suited for your needs.

Are you paying competitive rates?

Without comparative data, how can you be sure? Schooley Mitchell has the database of client data to be certain.

Merchant Services

Do you reference the "effective rate" to evaluate how competitive your processing fees are?

A blended pricing structure makes it more difficult to fully understand all the factors impacting your fees.

Do you know how your current processing environment impacts your processing fees?

How you process payments and capture data can have a big impact on your monthly fees.

Have you asked your processor to provide you an "interchange-plus pricing" quote?

This pricing structure is often the least expensive and most transparent option.

Facility Supplies

Are you over or undersupplied?

We audit your invoices to ensure optimal delivery schedules.

Are you splitting hairs with multiple vendors?

We look at all supplies invoices, across all vendors, to make sure everything you need is being ordered, delivered, and replenished effectively.

Do you require specific product quality or other specifications?

Schooley Mitchell helps you find the solutions that bet fit your business.

Case Study

  • Describes their current processing environment

Schooley Mitchell:

  • Uses our benchmarking data to research options and negotiates better pricing for the client
  • Requests, reviews, and validates competitive quotes from other processors
  • Negotiates with the current vendor for a re-rate
  • Compiles our research and recommendations into a Value Report
  • Assists with the cancellation of services if needed
  • Assists with compliance standards
  • Implements pricing and changes
  • Confirms the new price 30 days after implementation

Part 1: Client Background

Client A is a single-location veterinary practice focusing on family pets. Client A engaged Schooley Mitchell to ensure they weren’t overpaying on their non-veterinary expenses, like payment processing.

Important Factors - Payment Processing:

  • Payment processing was a considerable expense for Client A.
  • They were on a tiered pricing structure with their incumbent payment provider.
  • They were not under an appropriate rate structure leaving room for savings.
  • They were spending $46,220.04 per year on payment processing fees.

Part 2: Savings Results

Schooley Mitchell negotiated with several payment processors, including Client A’s incumbent vendor, who was willing to provide a more competitively priced rate structure.

This resulted in an estimated reduction of $16,970.52 per year - or roughly 37%

This was all achieved without any changes to Client A’s payment processing structure.

Across the term of our engagement, Client A is saving $50,911.56!

Part 3: Implementation & Post Audits

Schooley Mitchell provided a timeline for implementation, including accurate instructions for steps involving Client A’s vendors.

Schooley Mitchell verified implementation within one month, dependent on the necessary invoices presented.

The client received a detailed implementation report outlining a savings summary for the next three years.

Following implementation, Schooley Mitchell continued to monitor Client A’s invoices quarterly, to ensure the agreed upon rates were being honored, and ensure any billing errors were caught right away.

        Uniforms & Linens

        Do you rent or purchase uniforms?

        With no inventorial upfront costs and easier access to replacements/repairs, renting from a reliable source has become a preferred option to purchasing outright.

        Does your uniform rental policy properly account for employee damage and loss?

        Loss and damage charges include the purchase of a new garment at full retail price on top of the associated setup, name tag, logo fees, and sometimes replacement charges, depending on your rental agreement.

        Are your laundering and delivery schedules optimized?

        Without the correct cadence, your business could be overspending or not receiving what it needs to operate efficiently.

        Commodity markets can be complex and confusing, making it difficult for business owners and managers to navigate.

        Are you certain there are no billing errors in your invoices?

        There are opportunities to optimize pricing structures and recover billing errors.

        Are you receiving all tax benefits available to you?

        Your business might be missing out on significant savings opportunities.

        Getting Started is Easy!

        Step 1

        Sign our Letter of Agency & Service Agreement

        You also sign a letter of agency so we can negotiate with your current vendors, because chances are you’re not looking to switch. You also sign our service agreement which covers our business terms.

        Provide Us Invoices or Online Access

        You provide us with the bills or online access to your vendors so we can establish a baseline of your current cost structure.

        Step 2

        We do the Analysis & Negotiating.

        This is where we use our benchmarking data to research options and negotiate better deals for you.

        Set Up a Call to Introduce Our Specialist

        We don't need much from you during this step, just a quick call to introduce our specialist who is doing the work.

        Step 3

          IS YOUR NON-PROFIT BEING OVERCHARGED FOR VITAL BUSINESS SERVICES?

          Your team has more important things to do than conducting thorough audits of your expenses. Thankfully, that’s what Schooley Mitchell does, all day, every day. We optimize your expenses so you can focus on doing what you do best.

          We know your auditors and/or accountants do a fantastic job reviewing your budgets and spending; however, we can’t all be experts in everything. Schooley Mitchell’s team of experienced analysts know how to identify savings opportunities and overspending in key areas.

          At Schooley Mitchell, we’re entirely independent of any vendors. Our consultants receive no incentives or bonuses from services providers. In fact, we’re so confident in our ability to negotiate savings for our clients, we’ve based our business model on that very fact; if we don’t deliver savings, we don’t get paid.

          Waste

          How predictable is your waste every month?

          Variability in your waste from month-to-month makes a big difference to certain service providers.

          Is your container size and collection frequency optimized?

          Finding a provider that is both cost effective and meets your needs can be challenging.

          Are your waste disposal fees changing frequently over the course of the year?

          A professional audit of your expenses can get to the bottom of it.

          Merchant Services

          Do you reference the "effective rate" to evaluate how competitive your processing fees are?

          A blended pricing structure makes it more difficult to fully understand all the factors impacting your fees.

          Do you know how your current processing environment impacts your processing fees?

          How you process payments and capture data can have a big impact on your monthly fees.

          Have you asked your processor to provide you an "interchange-plus pricing" quote?

          This pricing structure is often the least expensive and most transparent option.

          Telecom

          Have you conducted a recent usage audit across your telecommunications system?

          In many cases, we find inefficiencies and redundancies in the number of lines and features.

          Have you considered moving to a Voice over IP platform?

          Cloud based telecommunications systems typically provide unique features at lower costs.

          Do you know when your current plan automatically renews?

          Companies typically only have a 30-day window to make changes to their current contract.

          Shipping

          Have you considered splitting your shipping business across multiple vendors?

          Vendors tend to specialize in certain areas so playing to their unique strengths can reduce your overall costs.

          Are you paying for unnecessary delivery guarantees?

          Being more flexible on delivery times can significantly reduce your costs.

          Do you review your monthly statements to ensure the correct charge codes are used?

          Charge codes can be very confusing and require a detailed review to ensure you are being charged correctly.
