SERVICES
WE ATTACK COMPLIANCE WITH A HEALTHY DOSE OF COMMON SENSE. HERE’S HOW:
Plain language forms, contracts and policies
We’re all about user-friendly forms, page-turner contracts and snappy policies for real people. We create these online or offline, through video, text or graphics – whatever makes it bite-size and easy to understand.
Compliance and risk management
No compliance for compliance’s sake. We protect businesses by being their compliance eyes and ears, helping them to cleverly manage their risk and be more efficient.
Complaints management
The secret to keeping your customers happy is to have an efficient complaints management system in place. We help develop strategies and policies to ensure that if someone is truly unhappy, their complaint is resolved as quickly and painlessly as possible.
New business basics
Do you have a killer idea for a new product or just launched your first business? No idea what you need before you can roll it out? Check out our free roadmap – it covers all the basics without costing you a fortune.
Training and awareness
Tired of boring training? We focus on what your audience needs to know – nothing more, nothing less. We do e-learning, workshops, posters, newsletters, videos or whatever it takes to get your message across.
