WE ARE HERE TO HELP YOU GROW
We analyze our client’s expenses across several cost categories to determine whether they are overspending, and if cost-saving solutions can be found. Once we present our findings, if the client chooses to move forward with implementation, we remain as a single point of contact for ongoing monitoring, analysis, and support.
Schooley Mitchell’s only fees are self-funded from the savings generated. If savings aren’t found, our clients don’t pay – a truly risk-free and mutually beneficial model.
It's a win for everyone involved!

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.
“The savings he found for telecom were the equivalent of us getting 60 new donors – and it only took me a couple hours of my time to make that happen. Two hours for 60 donors? I’d do that again in a second.”

“Out of curiosity, I contacted former colleagues to ask what pricing they could provide, and to my astonishment, they were only able to provide pricing half as good as what Amanda and Schooley Mitchell could provide. This proved to me that Schooley Mitchell has built very strong relationships and has remarkable buying power.”

“For Waste Removal, Schooley Mitchell presented some local options where we could make a switch from our current provider and save 80%! Those are savings we did not realize were available and Schooley Mitchell did a great job laying out the implementation process”
