Vantaggi
What was a personable business that put customers first and at the center of the business. Behind the scenes it wasn't the most organised or efficient but ultimately it delivered and Timico was loved by its customers.
Svantaggi
Too many acquisitions, and a new CEO that has no former experience of being a CEO but running off of the Alternative Networks success. I love the fact he remains a shareholder and non exec of a competitor. What I think most people thought to be a difficult time ahead has grown to be the laughing stock of the industry. I think most people are beginning to wonder if you purposely set out to ruin a company could you do it so well so quickly. Last straw has to be pushing the COO out because she ultimately took too much on and became ineffective. She took everything on because no one else did. My favourite before leaving has to be the strategy of buying the remains of a distressed business (built on many many acquisitions) their is a theme here! All excitement lies in the purchase of this business that no one else wants, yes it's cheap but suffers from the same issues as Timico. Recently re branded due to such poor reputation, Timico is planning the same. So in short the savior of Timico is: Buy distressed business that is suffering from the same issues as Timicio Re brand to try and hide away from the current perception CEO that has ruined the business to date and will now take on the purchase and make that a success... Good luck!
