This experience has brought new life into our expectations for the future of our business. It was the best 2 days that we could have hoped for capturing insight on all the facets of our business that we were overlooking. Andrew Acer was our guy and we were truly impressed with the coverage and sincerity of his work.

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Cogent Analytics. They initially came in to perform a discovery of our business and have continued working alongside us to help restructure and strengthen our company for continued growth, long-term success, and generational wealth. Matthew Boos was originally assigned to our business, and from the very beginning, he was professional, patient, honest, and made sure we fully understood every step of the process. He was not afraid to give us the hard truths we needed to hear, while also providing the guidance, tools, and support necessary to make meaningful changes. Since then, we have continued using several of Cogent’s services and have had a great experience with the entire team. Laney and Heather have been helping us with marketing, Jeff has been working with us on accounting, Merlin has guided us through tax issues and retirement planning, and Harrison has been teaching us CMS and everything that goes along with putting those systems into place. We are also looking forward to meeting with Matthew’s successor, Rick, next week as we continue working to put everything we have been taught into practice. It is reassuring to know that Cogent’s support does not end when one consultant’s assignment is complete. Their entire team continues working with us and behind the scenes to help make sure we succeed. Cogent has helped us put better structure, processes, accountability, and planning in place, and we are excited about what the future holds for our company and our family. We would absolutely recommend Cogent Analytics to any business owner who is ready to hear some hard truths, make necessary changes, and receive the guidance and support needed to continue growing.

They are very professional. They have a wealth of knowledge and a large team of resources to support whatever challenges you have to tackle. We saw significant financial improvements pretty quickly. It is pretty expensive, but in the world of consultations/professional services, it is reasonable. After the high intensity period. You can tailor your support to whatever you want to meet your budget. If your team will fully commit to their plan you will certainly see your company thrive.

In 2 powerful days, Kevin (Cogent Discovery Guru) identified multiple major actionable improvements and gave very valuable advise to me and my business partner. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars!

Let's talk

Here’s what happens when advisors do the work instead of just talking about it

  • We have a team that’s starting to feel empowered and not just employed.

  • My experience with Cogent was life-changing.

  • Roles are clearer, expectations are better defined, and our leadership team is finally working in sync.
