Testimonials

  • “One can not escape the vicissitude of success once embraced. My wife and I have been providers of chiropractic care for 4-5 years. Ownership has always been our goal; to serve a community with our unique brand of care and have no one to answer to. As fate would have it, we were introduced to Doug Muir. His divination for what we could accomplish was the fuel to where we are today. Our practice has gradually grown from the couple of months we have opened our doors. To anyone reading this , being good at what you do is one thing. Having a strong constituency behind you is another thing . Doug has been very pivotal in our road to financial freedom and independence. I thank God everyday that we met this man.”

  • “A successful 3-month engagement of Doug and his team encompassing some project management/implementation work for a conversion to a new clearing firm, as well as some strategy guidance, turned into a whole lot more. In fact, Doug brought so much to the table that we ended up hiring him full-time! And to this day he’s still doing the occasional project for us. Doug’s energy level is infectious and his insights invaluable. After starting with big picture strategy to assist us with our short-, medium- and long-term goals and help evaluate personnel needs, Doug homed in on the KPIs, policies and procedures necessary to put strategy into action. This included improving financial reporting so we could analyze performance better and keeping us on task throughout. Put simply, Doug would be a ‘shot in the arm’ for any small business looking to face head on industry challenges and ignite growth. I’d be happy to provide a detailed reference if needed.”

  • “I own and operate what is considered a “local institution”. It is a 24 hour New York Delicatessen and has been open for business for 40 years. Prior to hiring Muir & Associates, the business suffered a major setback which severely affected every aspect of the operation. From loosely managed bookkeeping, high employee turnover, non-existent inventory controls, and recipe inconsistencies. As a result, the reputation of this beloved restaurant went down the tubes . “…Read More

So we’re excited to be part of it.
