Finding Help
There are numerous sources of help out there and depending on what you want, the ease of accessibility ranges from trivial to near impossible! It all depends on what the Owner/CxO/Director really wants for their Business. A novice Start-Up, led by their Banker (an Accountant) is going to want a Business Plan to get started, hence another Accountant; whereas a Business struggling with a major contract will probably (initially) need a Management Consultant - Need and activity are intimately linked, though poorly understood. To assist those looking for support, consider the table following:

Help Provider	Type of Help	Ease of Access
Accountant	Business Plan Drafting; Budget Documents; TAX Documentation	Readily Accessible via Phone or Internet
Management Consultant	Total Quality Management (TQM); Management Reporting Templates; Six Sigma (6Σ) Green belt or Black belt	Reasonably Accessiable via Specialist Associations
CxO Mentor	Business Planning; Business Development Strategies; Experience & Knowledge Transfer	Somewhat Accessiable via Specialist Clubs
'Hatchet Men'	Staff Rationalization; Downsizing; Increased liquidity through freeing up 'wage commitments'	Rare but reputations do proceeed these Individuals
Sales & Customer Facing Staff Mentors	Building Client base; Delivery Strategies; Increased cashflow through REAL business activity	Exceedingly Rare Only a handful of COMPITENT Individuals exist globally
Business Triage Mentors	Staff Optimization (not necessarily reduction); Processes-and-Procedures (for both delivery and communication); Increased cashflow through clearing backlogs to clients & Stimulation of new client activity	Exceedingly Rare Only a handful of COMPITENT Individuals exist globally

From the above Table, it should be clear that before seeking help you should have a clear idea what you want help with and what you want to achieve. Getting a 'Hatchet Man' to do you Business Plan is akin to using an Atomic Bomb to kill a Cockroach! As ever, all such considerations should begin with a Decision Tree to ensure that:

The Correct Outcome is being sought;
An Appropriate Help Provider is identified to attain the Correct Outcome;
Your Business understands the Budget Considerations (Expense increases as a function of Rarity);
Come to terms with your Fears - The Risk-Reward-Equation must be settled in Your Mind
