L&F CG

The creation of organic growth is our secret sauce. However, sometimes, more than not actually, merger and/or acquisitions are an essential part of any company growth. M&A is difficult because there is som many parameters on how to measure the success of the operation.

In real estate the competition is fierce, it is brutal. Due to the money that can be lost or won in one contract, every little competitive edge is essential. One of those edges is public funding, tax credits, to name a few. Not utilizing those “tools,” is at best dumb, at worst catastrophic because your competitors are using those tools and gaining quite a sizeable competitive advantage on you and your company. 

Dynamic sales is all about acknowledging how buyer behaviour is changing dramatically due to the introduction of new technology. The introduction of machine learning and the introduction of AI are making sales predictive and not reactive as it has been for the last 1000 years   

This is one of our more advanced services. Not in the process but because a company needs to have a certain size before how to organize becomes essential for growth.

To build a company or to grow a company or to enter new markets, you are going to need resources. Soft money can in many situations be the “brunt” of it, but you will, at some point, need hard cash as well. There is money that is good for you, and there is money that is bad for you. It differs depending on your need. Hence you need to know about all types of funding available and when to use which.

Preparing for success might sound like "stupid advice." However, in real life and business, you have competitors left, right, and center. If you have built a game-changer, customers won't understand, and competitors will go after your head. Having the best product or service, is worthless unless you have a system that can facilitate its success and growth. This is difficult; hence, we have created a workshop to fix it and to ensure your success. 

When your working in different data systems, ensuring they communicate efficiently is vital. Or if you're working analog with some administrative process, there is probably  a good chance it can be automated. And we know what you must do and how to do it.

Allowing yourself to become a specialist is the first step on the business ladder to a more attractive clientele. By diversifying into new markets, you and your company can keep developing your expertise and not “dilute” it by catering to a broad spectrum of challenges. A Ferrari mechanic will charge you a lot more for fixing your Ferrari, than your local mechanic down the road. But if you enter the Ferrari garage, and you see a few Ladas, Skodas and Toyotas. Your trust will drop, your willingness to pay a premium for their services will disappear completely. And there is a good chance you will take your Ferrari somewhere else. This goes for almost any business as well. And if you want to be a specialist, the one business that charges a premium for fixing the ferraris of the business world. By diversifying your market, you expand the number of Ferraris in your clientele. Hence you don't have to fix the Toyotas, Ladas and Skodas to stay in business. And you can keep on developing your Ferrari fixing skills while charging the premium that makes you attractive for the premium clientele

Founded by Vikings as a trading post in 997 AD, Trondheim is one of Norway’s oldest cities, and one of its largest. Located on a peninsula it enjoys a relatively mild maritime climate (by northern European standards, of course). Trondheim also boasts a vibrant cultural life and despite its size, its historic city center still feels intimate. And, the city is well known for its many festivals, variety of excellent restaurants as well as musical and art scene. Billed as the world’s most northern Gothic cathedral, Nidaros was built over the tomb of St. Olav, the Viking king credited with bringing Christianity to Norway. Construction began in 1070 and it was completed in 1300. Spend time enjoying the grounds outside before entering the cathedral itself. Many tourists know the city is set up for cycling exploration with cycling paths and even a bike lift (yes, you read that right) to help cyclists make it up one of the steeper streets in old town Bakklandet. And, yes, there are museums galore including the Ringve Music Museum (exhibiting rare musical instruments), Rockheim (which, as its name indicates, is all about rock and popular music), the National Museum of Decorative Arts, the Nordenfjeld Museum of Applied Art, and the Trondheim Museum of Art. Each is very cool in its own right.

If you think like a Viking, and with your stomach, you should turn your gaze and your interest to Stavanger. Norway’s fourth biggest city leads the field in a number of areas. Some people like to call it the ‘oil capital’ of Norway but for the curious and inquiring, Stavanger`s status as ‘ the food capital’ is much more tempting. There are lots of culinary landmarks in Stavanger, offering high-quality produce and restaurants that have gained the recognition of national and international gourmets. Stavanger was, in fact, the first city, outside Stavanger, to be awarded a Michelin star.  Cold October or cool March. You’ll be hungry whatever the weather. If you want to eat like a Viking king, you should come to Stavanger, according to those in the know. They highlight Stavanger, Jæren and the region as having the best produce in Norway. Those who make a foray to Stavanger will also be very impressed by the dramatic coastal landscape, the wide-open beaches, and the scenic contrasts. Some choose to pit themselves against the forces of nature on a surfboard. Others go on a voyage of discovery on the 40-km-long and wild Lysefjord, where the mountains tower like chieftains above large parts of the fjord. A boat trip here is a magnificent experience whatever the time of year. Go Viking and experience impressive mountains, reckless waterfalls, and remote farms – in what was once the realm of the Vikings.  

Oslo has been around since 1,000 CE. But a fire burned the city in 1624, so it practically had to be rebuilt – with the Akershus fortress as the only medieval building standing until today. So while Stockholm has its Gamla Stan which can make you feel like you’re in a living, breathing museum, Oslo is pretty much a work in progress: cranes keep appearing, the architecture keeps evolving, the skyline keeps changing. Neighborhoods that used to be semi-abandoned are becoming hip. More bars and restaurants are opening every year. In the midst of it all, creative endeavors like SALT, a nomadic festival that combines art and music with sauna culture, feel right at home in Oslo’s current state of awakening.The fjords, the forests, the archipelagos. It’s no secret that Norway is one of the most beautiful places in the world. And it may be a huge country, but Oslo is the best base of operations for you to explore it. Thanks to the city’s airport, and also to its extensive network of trains, ferries and buses, you can catch all the stunning views from places like Trolltunga or Preikestolen, venture beyond the Arctic Circle for polar bears and the Northern Lights, or even cross the border to Sweden in just an hour and a half. There are some beautiful sights over there as well.

“The assessment” kind of sounds like “the assassin,” and for some the feeling when received might be somewhat similar. It might seem kind of brutal, not intentionally, but numbers don't lie.

One of our employees will contact you for some additional questions, this is a part of the assessment we do, it takes 5 maybe 10 minutes. And i am sorry, but it is necessary

A LFCG broker is not a seller nor a salesperson. An LFCG broker is the company or person LFCG clients and potential LFCG clients are referred to for a local business meeting or presentation. A LFCG broker gets a hefty provision on every service or deal they broker and a LFCG broker can pitch their own services to LFCG clients. The LFCG broker makes money either way.

At LFCG we find it is important to recognize all the hard work that is poured into all the different parts of the real estate market. Starting, developing and maintaining companies year in and year out takes a massive effort from the whole organization. At LFCG we have a modest approach to determine what can be seen as a form of best practice for each of the elements that make a company. By using international research, technological trends, global trends, and a changing political environment, we have developed modules that allow LFCG to have a qualified opinion on which companies best suited for today and the future markets. We will provide official and visual recognition for the companies selected. And an easy to understand assessment on individual needs, for the companies that didn't quite make it this year. Either way, everyone involved wins.

Also, failing to do so, leave your competition on the front foot in relation to you. You can, in some instances, even break the law if you miss these requirements.

Either way, you have competitors that working actively to sway those decisions in their favor. You are giving them a potential massive competitive edge on you and your company.

But you have to get it right, if you don't, you shouldn't bother. 

Having the right personnel in your board of directors gives you credibility and an “air of trustworthiness” and is a smart business move. However if you at the same time can utilize the competence they bring to the table, you're really on the road to success.

A bord or any advisors connected to your company can, if utilized right, contribute tremendous value. For starters one can and should add competence typical within marketing, economics, legislative and tech. Secondly one should add ambassadors, door openers and people from the industry. Once there, one needs to have routines on how to make the most of the added expertise.

This can only be avoided with a rigorous compliance.
