How often have you met someone who might be able to help your business but you were just not sure if doing business with that person would be a smart move? How can you propose to do business with someone who you don?t really know anything about, right?
There are so many ifs and buts in business. Wouldn?t it be great to be able to make decisions knowing that whoever you are dealing with is trustworthy?
Who Needs Corporate Private Investigations?
The best candidates for corporate private investigations are those who have already been taken advantage of. They know what is at stake and how painful it is to be duped, especially after finding out how easy to prevent being taken advantage of is, if only they knew better earlier.
Doing your homework on people is of the utmost importance more so when you?re putting everything on the line just by dealing with them. Remember that in some cases, merely being business partners with unscrupulous individuals or businesses can mean that you or your business can be held responsible from whatever consequence connecting with such persons or companies may bring. One false move can mean losing everything you?ve worked hard for, and yes, even for something that you are not directly involved in.
End point is, whoever you are dealing with, be it just a nanny or a high-stake business deal, you need to know such things as:
- Any record of bankruptcies
- Blogs and other written records online
- Possible criminal history
- Evictions, if any
- Foreclosures
- Finances, especially business related
- General reputation and/or community standing
- Judgments
- Liens
- Media reports
The Corporate Private Investigation Advantage
The private investigator that you hire should be able to give you a comprehensive spot-on report. He/she should be able to find out if someone is vulnerable and what their vulnerabilities are because human nature dictates that someone will almost always use their vulnerabilities as a motive to do something which they will not normally do or indulge in. For instance, if someone is financially weak, that person may use an opportunity to address that vulnerability even if it means hurting your company or you financially. The person may not be a bad person but due to the perceived needs, was driven to be someone else at that moment.
