Firebird Business Ventures Ltd. management consulting services helps manage by creating a plan for growth and long-term sustainability. This is done by having an invested interest and partnership in the business. This invested interest and partnership can consist of providing direction at a CEO level, Business and/or Management Consulting, Marketing, Sales or a Financial Investment depending on the business opportunity.

We have experience in managing and building successful business models at all levels…start-ups to multi-million dollar companies.

Firebird Business Ventures Ltd. helps guide the company by developing effective relationships, strategies, short and long term goals by filling a void in the market or a competitive advantage. The network of Firebird Business Ventures Ltd. spans from Investors, Finance, Sales, Marketing, Senior Managers, Business People and Entrepreneurs etc. that can be accessed if need be to help the partnered business. This network and business knowledge mix is part of the components for the business ventures success.

Firebird Business Ventures Ltd. focuses on the fit of partnering business and owners and the opportunity everyone can create. Everyone can have a plan, but how that plan is executed produces results. We have the experience to know which opportunities we can partner with or which opportunities should be referred to another firm, entrepreneur or person.

We don’t partner with everyone, but we do spend the time with any business to see if a fit exists. That can be as simple as a phone call or a face to face meeting to discuss the business venture. Here are a few examples of questions / items that determine the chance of us working together:

The business idea? What is it? Who are your competitors? What overall opportunity does this business have in your market?
Do you have experience in your business we are discussing?
How much do you have invested? How much sweat equity? How much money is invested?
Do you have a business plan? What is your strategy? How do you plan to implement these?
What stage are you at with this business? Is it an idea? Business plan stage? Start-up? Been in business a few years, 3-5, 10 years etc.?
What are you hoping to get out of this partnership? What do you want from us?

Firebird Business Ventures Ltd. will work with companies at all levels; start-ups to multi-million dollar businesses. If it makes sense for all parties involved we are interested in discussing further.

Mike's philosophy is simple: The things you don't see in a home are more important than the things you do, and addressing these critical details today protects your investment, saving you time, trouble and money tomorrow.

"The HOLMES Approved Homes Program is about integrating the right building products with the right technology, using the right building practices to build you a home that goes beyond residential standards, from construction to final inspection"

The result? Simply a better built home.

BETTER INSPECTIONS

A HOLMES Approved Home undergoes a series of home inspections including onsite field reviews by approved Mike Holmes Inspectors, which serves as a thorough, transparent record of the quality and value that exists behind the walls.

BEST TECHNIQUES Tested building techniques and practices are used in the construction of every HOLMES Approved Home to beautifully support and protect your investment—today and tomorrow.

LATEST TECHNOLOGY All Mike Holmes Inspectors are accredited Level 1 Thermographers that have been trained to use specialized equipment, like thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters, to make the most of the information these tools yield.

A SAFER HOME From the walls to its systems, a HOLMES Approved Home is safer, stronger and more durable thanks to superior construction practices and a strict adherence to proper code in every level of construction.

FOR YOUR PEACE OF MIND The HOLMES Approved Homes Program delivers confidence in your investment, so you can feel secure in your choice of a better, more durable home built right from the ground up.

Venture Market by Rethink And Diversify Securities Inc. was formed to bring PRIVATE CAPITAL INVESTMENT opportunities that ACTUALLY diversify your portfolio.

​Rethink and Diversify recognized an opportunity for a regulated online direct investing portal. We wanted to provide the do-it-yourself investors with an opportunity to research and select opportunities to best suit their needs. Venture Market provides that suitability requirements must be met before an investor can complete their investment in the product chosen. Venture Market is a regulated online crowdsourcing portal that is registered to conduct business in the following jurisdictions: British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

For the investor - they go to the website (www.venturemarket.ca) and fill out information to register. They then can browse and research all the investment opportunities that are available to them based upon suitability. After this, the investor can initiate the investments and complete the online investment forms for the investment of their choice. At this step of the process, the trade will be submitted to compliance for review. Pending compliance approval, the investment will be made in the opportunity chosen. This again goes back to investor suitability. The financing closes and all appropriate documents will be forwarded to all the investors. Congratulations you now own you’re very own private capital investment (most investments are RRSP and TFSA eligible).

​For the issuer (investment) - they go to the website (www.venturemarket.ca) and they fill out information to register. They will then be contacted by a Rethink and Diversify (venturemarket.ca) representative to begin their due diligence review. Pending approval of the review the issuer will be listed on the portal for investment. Some of the documents requested from the issuer depend upon industry standards and help to determine investor suitability. Once the minimum investment is reached, the financing can close and the investment dollars are transferred to the company. Congratulations go and execute on your business and strategy!!

​Some of the investment opportunities that venturemarket.ca will be targeting are business sectors such as: tech-companies, real estate, land, farm land, construction companies, start-ups, established businesses, mortgage investment corporations (MIC), bonds and debentures, real estate investment trust, royalties and limited partnerships. This can vary from the pharmacy on the corner of the street to a tech company needing to do a multi-million dollar raise.

So if you are interested in either investing in a business or....if your business or idea needs an investor/capital for any reason....go to: www.venturemarket.ca

This has been the culmination of Rethink and Diversify’s vision that began in early 2016 and could not have been achieved without the combined efforts of Jason Park, Roger Grona (Firebird Business Consulting Ltd.) and the Rethink and Diversify Securities Inc. shareholders. We are looking forward to 2017 and beyond.

Exciting times ahead…..

Neechie Gear® Is A Lifestyle Brand On A Mission To Empower Youth Through Sports!

Founder and CEO, Kendal Netmaker, grew up on Sweetgrass First Nation, Saskatchewan. He was single-parented, came from a low-income family and had little opportunity to be involved in any extra-curricular activities as a youth.

It wasn't until in elementary when he had met a life-long friend from South Africa who literally changed his life forever. His friend noticed Kendal was skilled in soccer and wondered why he wasn't playing on the same sports teams that he was playing on. Kendal had told his friend that he had no way of paying the registration fees and had no means traveling to and from the games/practices.

Soon after, his South African friend pulled him aside and said, "Kendal, I told my parents what you told me and they want to pay for your fee to play on my soccer team and we can even drive you to the reserve after all games/practices". Kendal was astounded that someone so kind would do this for him and accepted the opportunity. This allowed Kendal to be part of many sports teams and continue with his education.

This family eventually gave Kendal's family a running vehicle which enabled him and his sisters to become involved in sports that carried them through high school and into university. Kendal has been part of, and witnessed what sports can do for youth by developing elite athletes and future leaders!

Without his friends' help, Kendal wouldn't have a landed a college volleyball scholarship after graduating high school, finish university and create an award-winning company!

Today, Neechie Gear is committed to giving a portion of proceeds to help underprivileged kids to play sports! Together, we can change many lives through sports!
