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.

iyampolsky – Medical & Dental Savings
MOST MEDICAL PRACTICES ARE OVERPAYING FOR THEIR BUSINESS SERVICES – AND DON’T EVEN KNOW IT
Current economic challenges have made it imperative for Medical offices to continually assess their fiscal health in order to find ways to counter rising costs and staffing shortages. Many of these Doctors know they can easily spend up to 36+ hours a week treating patients – leaving little time to help develop and maintain strategies to increase profitability or evaluate new opportunities to streamline operations. Most MEDICAL PRACTICES are overpaying for their business services – and don’t even know it
Evaluating the options that best balance your office’s goals while ensuring optimal performance from your various business services can be very time consuming and frustrating. When was the last time you assessed your Waste or Merchant Services contract and pricing? Is it time for your team to get a no cost, no obligation audit of some of your key services from Schooley Mitchell?

"I wanted to take this opportunity to write about my experience working with Marty Stacey of Schooley Mitchell. I was initially hesitant to engage with Schooley Mitchell as I felt we were already optimized in the cost areas that they focused on. However, after Marty explained the process, I decided to try out their services on one cost category-uniforms/linens. I was extremely impressed that Schooley Mitchell was about to reduce my monthly bill on uniforms by over 54% - without requiring any vendor change!"

"No one knows the importance of managing costs more than those who work in the nonprofit sector. I was faced with the task of setting my employees up with cell phones - I had no idea where to start. The thought of calling various companies getting quotes was overwhelming - I just didn't have the time or expertise to do this. I reached out to Marty and Schooley Mitchell and they were incredibly helpful in finding the right options for Project Abraham."
