TalentPro

The SIBC TalentPro team focused on advising the company on purchases through data analysis and building a template for evaluating future purchases. The team considered factors like the value of the book, how long it will take the company to make a return on their investment, the industry, payroll employee count, software module use, length of engagement, and payroll processing staff who want to be part of the transition. Since TalentPro must purchase full packages when buying business books, they should evaluate whether the entire book-of-business offering is beneficial to the company and its growth.  

The company’s goal is to grow to a $15 million company in 5 years, signaling 3x growth over the period, and the mergers and acquisitions template will help TalentPro increase ROI and grow their business in a profitable manner. TalentPro’s main markets are agriculture and manufacturing, but they plan to take on additional joint venture partners to expand.

“Working with TalentPro this semester, I had the opportunity to learn about a new industry and apply Excel knowledge to its growth. Our team worked on developing a template for TalentPro to evaluate the worth of various book of business offerings, and this will help the company grow in profit and clientele. SIBC has helped me strengthen leadership skills, learn how to delegate in different kinds of project formats, and apply business practices to company goals.”  - Emma Bryant
