What is profit improvement and turnaround management?

Profit improvement focuses on increasing a company’s bottom line through operational efficiencies, cost control, and revenue enhancement. Turnaround management is a strategic approach to help underperforming or distressed businesses stabilize, recover, and return to profitability.

How do I know if my business needs turnaround management services?

If your business is experiencing declining profitability, cash flow problems, high debt, or operational inefficiencies, it may benefit from turnaround management. Early intervention is key: the sooner you act, the more options you have.

What does G-Squared Partners do during a turnaround engagement?

We assess the financial health of your business, identify root causes of underperformance, develop a customized action plan, and work hands-on with your team to implement changes.

Our approach is practical, fast-moving, and focused on measurable results. We’ll focus on quick wins that can help stabilize your business while tackling the larger structural issues that are contributing to your company’s underperformance.

How long does a turnaround typically take?

The duration varies depending on the complexity and severity of the issues. Some clients see early wins in a few weeks, while a full turnaround plan may take 3–12 months or longer depending on the status of your business. We move quickly but sustainably to stabilize your business and improve long-term profitability.

What industries do you specialize in?

While we work across many industries, our team has deep experience in SaaS, manufacturing, professional services, commercial real estate, and consumer products. Our turnaround strategies are tailored to your unique business model.

Can you help even if my business is not in distress but just underperforming?

Absolutely. Many of our clients are still profitable but aren’t hitting their growth targets, or are facing headwinds in their core markets. We help identify where money is leaking and where opportunities for margin improvement exist — before things get worse.

What’s the first step in working with G-Squared Partners?

It starts with a discovery call where we learn about your business challenges and goals. From there, we’ll develop a proposal that contains a strategic roadmap tailored to your needs, whether that’s a full-scale turnaround or targeted profit improvement strategies.

Do you work with internal finance teams or replace them?

We collaborate closely with your internal finance team and leadership. Our role is to provide strategic guidance and execution support — not to replace your team, but to empower them. If you don’t have a finance team, or are experiencing a lot of turnover at senior levels, our outsourced CFOs can step into the gap and provide the leadership your team needs to overcome these challenges.

How do you measure success in a turnaround engagement?

Success is measured by tangible outcomes: improved cash flow, increased profitability, stronger financial controls, and restored stakeholder confidence. We set clear goals and track progress throughout the engagement.

Our approach is pragmatic. It’s not possible to save every underperforming business, but we’ll work diligently to ensure the best possible outcome for all stakeholders, no matter the financial challenges the business is facing.

Can you help my business raise capital during a turnaround?

Yes. We often help clients prepare for capital raises by improving financial reporting, building forecasts, and presenting a compelling turnaround plan. Investors and lenders want to see a clear path to profitability — we help you tell that story. Our professionals can also help you negotiate new agreements to enhance your liquidity and provide the financial flexibility you need to recover.

What if I’m not ready for a full turnaround engagement?

We offer flexible engagements tailored to your needs. Whether you want a diagnostic review, short-term financial support for immediate cash flow needs, or a full transformation plan, we’ll meet you where you are.

Do you only work with distressed companies?

Not at all. We work with all kinds of businesses: from those that are profitable but stagnant, to fast-growing companies, to businesses preparing for an exit. The core principles of profit improvement and turnaround management apply to any company looking to improve performance.

What financial reports or data do I need to get started?

Ideally, you’ll have access to basic financial statements (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow), recent forecasts, and operational metrics. But don’t worry — if your reporting is a mess, we’ll help you clean it up as part of the process.

Will this process disrupt my day-to-day operations?

We aim to minimize disruption. Our goal is to support your team, not overwhelm them. While some changes may be significant, we implement them in a way that preserves business continuity and improves efficiency.
