| |DECEMBER 20194Consultants ReviewEditor's NoteIt's Time for SMEs to Land their First SME AdvisorDeepshikha SinghManaging Editor Consultants ReviewSaid to be the fastest-growing sector in India, the growth in the SME sector comes with a lot of challenges. Today, most small businesses operate with the do-it-yourself approach. They believe to be involved in every aspect of their operations, right from hiring the employees to keeping up with the tax returns. While taking control of the situation is definitely a leadership quality, one person wearing many hats at a time can lead to a compromise on the quality of the services offered. This is when most companies look for a professional consultant or advisor who can provide the right knowledge and experience which the SMEs lack to use in their industry. Whether a firm is a bootstrapped venture or you have lenders to back you, starting a business and running it smoothly is not a cakewalk. Guiding you through the tough times, SME Advisors not just evaluate the problem but also help with where the change is needed. SME Advisors can help with reviewing your business plan, comparing it with your goals, and tweaking it to meet the requirement or suggesting better ways to improve a businesses' chances for success.However, not all consultants are created equal, and not all businesses are the same. Hence, not all SME Advisors can help in meeting all the requirements of the customers. Thus, taking note of this, in our current edition of Consultants Review, we have featured a list of `10 Most Promising SME Advisors - 2019'. A carefully crafted list, it features some of the prominent names of the industry which are leaving no stone unturned when it comes to managing the debts and finances of their customers. This issue has been put together not just to exhibit the best SME Advisors but also to bring out the exclusive insights from various experts from across the industry. We hope the list helps you find the right advisor and we achieve our mission.Your ideas are always welcome!Vol 5 · Issue 7-1 · December, 2019 Publisher & Editor Alok Chaturvedi Managing Editor Deepshikha SinghEditorial Team Aveek Pal Chaudhuri Rohan A T Sthitaprajnya Panigrahi Tanuja A Akkannavar Group Art Director Ashok Kumar Visualisers Manjunath S.
