          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.

          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, as well as associated setup, name tag, logo fees, and sometimes replacement charges.

          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.

          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.

            Schooley Mitchell ensures you’re paying fair rates on an ongoing basis, to protect your fuel budget, even in times of market instability.

            Are you using the right fleet card solution?

            Our vast database of customer and vendor data allows us to know what better options are on the market.

            Are your corporate discounts being honored?

            Compressed Gases

            Do you think your compressed gases expenses are written in stone?

            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?

                    Getting Started is Easy!

                    Step 1

                    Provide Us Invoices or Online Access

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

                    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.

                    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

                    We Share Our Recommendations

                    Then we share our recommendations with you. You choose what to implement and we take it from there.

                    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

                    We audit your invoices to ensure optimal delivery schedules.
