Why Us

Outsourcing — is a familiar concept to many entrepreneurs. Your startup basically outsource functions to us like payroll processing, accounting, distribution, and many other important functions — such as business mentor, we act as your CEO during the program! Many large companies turn to outsourcing to cut costs. Many startups have enjoy the following benefits of joining the Abacus program:

Control capital costs. Cost-cutting may not be the only reason to startups in Abacus, but it's certainly a major factor. It converts fixed costs into variable costs, releases capital for investment elsewhere in your business, and allows you to avoid large expenditures in the early stages of your business. This can also make your startup more attractive to investors, since you're able to pump more capital directly into revenue-producing activities.

Increase efficiency. Companies that do everything themselves have much higher research, development, marketing, and distribution expenses, all of which must be passed on to customers. Abacus's cost structure and economy of scale give your startups an important competitive advantage.

Reduce labor costs. Hiring and training staff for short-term or peripheral projects can be very expensive, and temporary employees don't always live up to your expectations. Abacus's resources lets you focus your human resources where you need them most.

Reduce time to market. We have the resources to start a business right away (and the right way). Otherwise the same startup might involve taking weeks or months to hire the right people, train them, and provide the support they need. And if a project requires major capital investments (such as building a series of distribution centers), the startup process can be even more difficult.

Focus on your core business. Every business has limited resources, and every manager has limited time and attention. Abacus help startups to shift its focus from peripheral activities toward work that serves the customer, and we help founders set their priorities more clearly.

Level the playing field. Most startups simply can't afford to match the in-house support services that larger companies maintain. Abacus help startups act "big" by giving them access to the same economies of scale, efficiency, and expertise that large companies enjoy.

Reduce risk. Every business investment carries a certain amount of risk. Markets, competition, government regulations, financial conditions, and technologies all change very quickly. Abacus assume and manage this risk for you, and we generally are much better at deciding how to avoid risk in our areas of expertise.
