Application Health Assessment

Vertical Motion’s Application Health Assessment (AHA) is a thorough evaluation of existing software solutions. Similar to a 130-point vehicle inspection, the AHA assesses the overall health of an application, identifies critical software issues, and details the necessary actions for restoring the app to optimal performance.

Product Launch

We’re with you every step of the way! From idea to execution and beyond, our team of experts will assist you in building, launching, and growing your business.

Market Validation

Far too many businesses have failed to conduct proper research in the early stages of product development. The result is often catastrophic, with very few surviving a mistake of this magnitude. At Vertical Motion, we help establish a strategic plan to test early hypotheses and ensure your product development is backed by well-founded research before launch.

Business Plan Development

The business plan contains critical information about your revenue streams, value proposition, and target market, which plays a significant role when seeking financial investment. Our team of expert entrepreneur advisors and business strategists will guide you through each section to develop a clear and robust business plan that meets the expectations of venture capitalists and key stakeholders alike.

Product Strategy

A new and exciting idea is a great starting point for any new business, but in and of itself does not lead to success. Important product stages, including prototyping, pilot testing, MVP development, and full deployment, must be considered. We’ll work closely with your team to understand your ideas, goals, values, and aspirations to assist you in developing an actionable product roadmap that serves your business well today and in the future.

Acquiring capital to fund the development of your business is a challenging part of building a successful organization. Even more complex, however, is finding the right financial source that offers you the funds you need today without sacrificing your equity. As a Canadian founder, you have access to hundreds of grants, vouchers, and other non-dilutive funding sources to ease the financial burden of making your vision a reality. At Vertical Motion, we simplify this process by assisting you in identifying non-dilutive funding opportunities and compiling the necessary information to complete your application on time. Our extensive experience in facilitating the grant application process will help you tell your story the right way to maximize your chances of application approval.

Fractional C-Suite

Executive expertise when you need it most

Human capital is among the most valuable assets an organization can own, yet one of the hardest to acquire. Amid increasing labour shortages and record-breaking market demand, businesses may spend weeks or months recruiting and evaluating candidates. In highly competitive markets with little margin for error, business owners cannot afford to pause operations while they search for the right person to support their changing needs. At Vertical Motion, our C-Suite on Demand service works to simplify this process by temporarily placing an industry-leading executive into your organization. Your industry expert will work alongside your team to assess operational inefficiencies, plan strategic resolutions, recruit additional support and train employees to take over operations after their term has ended.
