Schooley Mitchell is the largest independent cost reduction consulting firm in North America. Our network of franchised consulting offices serves as the outsourced expense reduction specialists for business clients from coast-to-coast in the United States and Canada.

We have established ourselves as a respected and cutting-edge opportunity in the world of franchising with our comprehensive training program, state-of-the-art support systems, world-class software tools and databases, multi-million-dollar intranet environment, and innovative client protection system. Our franchisees are among the most successful of any franchise system.

The service we provide our clients is quite simple: we review various business expenses – including telecommunications, merchant services, shipping, waste, fuel, and many more – and match them against our databases and experience to identify areas where those costs might be reduced. Our consultants negotiate with service providers, on our clients' behalf, in order to secure those reduced costs.

The final stage is providing the client with options, and allowing them to choose that which serves their needs best, while optimizing the costs. Our fees come from a portion of savings identified; there is no fee if there are no savings.

Our clients love this no-risk business model. The only possible outcomes are twofold: we identify savings for our clients, or we confirm their expenses are optimized – that's it.
