1. THE BEGINNING
This innovation initially came to life when…
We noticed the high failure rate of consultants and accountants in building a profitable practice and their inability to leverage and scale their practice.
In a new age cloud based world many consultants/accountants were using prehistoric approaches or one dimensional tools, the idea was to create a virtual consultant that contained all the methodologies and intellectual property of a multi-disciplined consultancy practice into one simple to use cloud based product.
The MAUS Hub is the only product on the market that includes a collection of powerful modules that cover a range of consulting solutions all packaged into a single solution.
2. WHAT & HOW
The purpose of this innovation is to…
…provide a virtual consultant in a box that allows the business consultant to facilitate solutions across a broad range of areas. This leaves the management platform allowing an SME to self-implement and maintain the course of self-improvement.
It does this by…
…offering a platform which a consultant can help a business owner use to get an overview of their business whether it be helping developing their business plan, creating an exit strategy, or understanding their financial health. MAUS provides more than 12 different modules based on best practice in one consulting cloud based solution.
3. PURPOSE & BENEFITS
This innovation improves on what came before because…
Historically, software providers have developed solutions to one specific business consulting solution. If a consultant wanted to offer the range of solutions supported by MAUS they would have to buy eight different software products, The MAUS Hub removes this requirement and packages this into one single platform.
Its various benefits to the customer/end-user include…
Consultants can now offer a wide range of services without the barriers associated with learning to use complicated standalone software. By being completely mobile, MAUS allows users to access the MAUS Hub from any location at any time.
4. COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
In the past, this problem was solved by…
Consultants have traditionally used, paper based solutions and desktop software solutions. The more advanced consultants have begun to use cloud based solutions.
Traditional software solutions are generally difficult to manage due to a lack of mobility and the topic areas being limited unless the consultant invests in multiple solutions from different vendors.
Its predecessors/competitors include…
Currently there are no directly competing products on the market that offer complete business solutions on a cloud platform.
The most successful software providers strive to meet all of the following requirements: functionality, integration, cost, ease of use and mobility.
5. TARGET MARKET
It is made for…
