Prospective clients
should contact WSMC via e-mail or phone and provide a brief summary of
their company, their objectives, and present circumstances. We
generally require a short Executive Summary as a basis to initiate our review. Most initial communication
will be via e-mail and we strongly encourage prospective clients to utilize
e-mail as the basis for communicating initial written documentation on their
firm. In most cases, we can review and respond to prospects'
overview information within three business days. WSMC does not charge
a fee for an Executive Summary overview, and thus we generally do not
solicit a full business plan from a prospect until we have reviewed the
Executive Summary, and through discussions with our prospect, have mutually
agreed that the client attributes meet the criteria for becoming a WSMC
client.
Due to
our process of partnering with our clients, WSMC is selective in accepting
prospects. Substantially all of our clients are derived from a
referral process, although we receive a significant quantity of unsolicited
proposals from a diverse group of companies. Due to the volume of
proposals received and our desire to focus resources on being able to timely
respond to opportunities and to properly service existing clients, WSMC will
generally not review full business plans from prospects, travel to remote
prospect locations, or engage in substantial technical reviews of client
information until the Executive Summary has been reviewed and the parties
have subsequently concluded that a further exploration of a strategic
relationship between WSMC and the client is appropriate. WSMC has a
policy of destroying rather than returning written documents we receive for
prospects that do not become WSMC clients.
