The business model
Oatmeal is a collection of talented individuals who together, have a breadth of experience and capability that enables a systematic approach to growing companies. Oatmeal takes a holistic approach at board level, identifying gaps and bringing in expertise from its divisional units to remedy the solution. To maintain a low cost base, flexibility and a model of accountability, Oatmeal operates on a flexible firm concept, where non business critical expertise is outsourced to preferred associates. Under this model operates two tiers, partners who own the company and are targeted against contribution, and associates who do not hold equity, and operate alongside partners at an operational level. Associates are categorized as platinum, gold, silver and bronze, denoting their contribution and commitment to Oatmeal with asscoates proving their mettle quickly moving up the scales to partner status.
Associates are actively encouraged to help develop the business, and in return Oatmeal will allocate a geographical area based on their expertise / preference and fully support associates in developing the business through strong branding and on line activities. Remuneration is based on experience, geography and associate level.
