About Us



Our solutions are focused on helping entrepreneurs to overcome the main challenges they face in starting up and staying in business. We provide entrepreneurs and small business owners business advice and support to help them start, grow and improve their business.

99% of businesses are small, and their owners are passionate about what they do. We believe in small businesses, and we are dedicated to helping business owners achieve their goals.

We aim to provide them with kind of business support that is not usually available to small businesses. Our consultants have worked in large businesses and want to bring the business management techniques found in large businesses to small business at a fraction of the cost.

We help small businesses and startups to improve and grow by helping them to manage their business more effectively by implementing continuous business improvement, market & competitive analysis and product development.

We achieve results through our Business Framework which analyses the key elements of a business, and the market that they compete. It then provides you with areas of improvement for your business and a clear plan for growth.

We help business owners to grow their business and reach even the most ambitious of targets. We help small-business owners manage their businesses effectively, helping them to understand their business performance, analyse current & future market conditions and their competition to help them make informed business decisions.

Agility is a core component of the Business Framework. Small businesses are in a fantastic position as they can react to market and customer changes far quicker than larger businesses, we give them the tools to identify opportunities and make proactive rather than reactive decisions.

We use a mix of powerful business analysis tools and systems to identify opportunities, risks and issues. Our core concepts of reinventing Strategy, Reinvigorating Culture & Improving Performance are the driving force behind our business analysis and business improvement methods.

The core concepts are supported by nine focus areas we use to assess and improve businesses.

Our Business Framework is the driving force behind our services. We have analysed many successful businesses, most of them possess the same five characteristics.

  1. They have a strategic direction and a clear plan for how they will achieve their goals.
  2. They monitor performance regularly to identify and solve problems in the business.
  3. They have the resources and infrastructure to keep ahead of the competition by analysing the market and reacting to it before their competitors.
  4. They are continually improving its processes to save money, improve products and create a better customer experience.
  5. They are making a positive impact on the community, employees and customers.

We'll work with your company until these targets are achieved.
