Appalachia Land Services, LLC | Application Preview
Appalachia Land Services, LLC is seeking government grants due to significant financial losses, with only $12,000 in income since February. The company initially suffered from a downturn in the Oil & Gas industry and faced further challenges when their primary client, Ridge Top Capital, ceased operations due to the virus. As a result, the business had to lay off abstractors who were critical to its operations.
With over 30 years in the field and strong industry connections, the owner plans to reinstate a team of 10 well-regarded individuals to enhance service delivery when the market improves. By leveraging updated software and maintaining client-focused relationships, the business is poised for a turnaround.
The application emphasizes the company's core values of honesty, integrity, and deep knowledge of the Appalachia Basin. Unlike larger competitors such as Landex and Purple Land, this business aims for a personalized approach, avoiding overbilling and ensuring direct communication with clients. The owner's experience and established relationships with environmental agencies in West Virginia and Pennsylvania serve as a competitive advantage, making a compelling case for funding approval.
