Your business has outgrown the way you run it.
I help owners of £1M–£15M businesses build the team, the priorities and the management rhythm needed for the next stage of growth without being the bottleneck.
The habits that got you to £1M+ won't get you to the next stage.
You have built a successful, profitable business through hard work, sharp commercial skills and total commitment. But as the business has grown, the complexity has outpaced your current way of working.
Everything comes back to you
Decisions stall on your desk and team members wait to be told what to do.
Working on the urgent, not the important
Firefighting dominates the week, leaving strategic initiatives on the back burner.
Too many competing priorities
You improve processes, but they don't stick, and momentum gets lost in the noise.
No time for true growth
You are too close to the operations to step back and see the structural changes needed to scale.
Shift from founder-led firefighting to system-driven growth.
You don’t need another heavy management framework or generic advice. You need an independent partner to challenge weak decisions, separate the root issues from day-to-day noise and establish a disciplined management rhythm.
Together, we address the three levers of scalable growth:
The team:
Clarify ownership so decisions sit where they belong and your leadership team steps up.
The priorities:
Cut through the confusion to focus strictly on the top three actions that drive profit and valuation.
The rhythm:
Build regular review cycles and independent accountability so agreed changes actually stick.
Find the "Thing Behind the Thing" in 45 minutes.
Value proposition focus.
Our tool puts the focus on the jobs customers need help with where your business is a great match. Understanding the answer positions your business with a buyer’s desires.
Marketing review.
Using the FAB process to ensure you are speaking to customers in their language. We will unpick the ‘What’s In It For Me’ messages that cut through information overload.
Business plan assessment.
Mapping the nine key aspects of successful businesses, we will identify areas of strength and weakness, providing you with a check list of cash-generating priorities.
Five-year plan.
Every business has a success story the leader needs to communicate. Working this out will help you to ensure 90-day and 12-month goals all add up to your eventual success.
Find the "Thing Behind the Thing" in 45 minutes.
When you are too close to the business, it’s difficult to see what is really holding you back. The Strategy Triage is a rapid, structured diagnostic designed specifically for owners of £1M–£15M businesses.

Success stories
Regular meetings with Nick helped keep me accountable and focussed on the issues that matter. As a founder, every day of work feels like you're pushing in the right direction, but it's easy to go off track. My conversations with Nick were some of the only times I could stand back, think and talk through my progress and priorities. Nick challenged me by forcing me to look beyond the natural biases of work preferences, to face up to critical business issues and to work through the solutions. Sometimes you just need someone independent, who is rooting for you, to help you see beyond your blindspots in the business.
Nick challenges me to make time to think about the bigger picture and review strategic priorities, which is important to keep things on track and maintain a good perspective. Nick is friendly, approachable and listens—from the start, I felt able to discuss sensitive and challenging management issues. I really value having somebody outside the business with whom I can discuss my thoughts and who will act as a sounding board.
I highly recommend having Nick on board to help you through your business journey. He took time to understand our business before helping to put together a structure and growth strategy. His focus and attention to detail was exemplary and he was always on hand to offer advice on all matters. His approach and thought process to decision making helped me see things in a different light and helped me in making sure I took the correct path without rushing into anything. Our business is in a much better place and we are achieving our goals and targets which we set when we began working together.
Nick is easy going and not judgmental. Entrepreneurs like me, feel shy to say ideas because many people are judgmental and criticise. Nick is adaptable and encourages people like me to share many ideas. You can easily speak in front of Nick, ask any sort of question and he is always enthusiastic, encouraging to invest in your ideas and putting you in a pipeline for success. He challenges me by asking questions, getting me to focus on discipline and open my mind to new ideas and to see things from a different point of view. He will challenge you on the business, not in it. He has helped me to delegate and put trust in my team, hire the right people, get the systems and processes in place rather than having everything in your head. When we started sales were hovering around £1 million. Now they are around £10 million. That is how his challenge works.
