Micro & small businesses and organisations

You’ve grown your business but it’s stuck or there are cracks

You’ve done the hard work and built a successful business (or non-profit)

You’ve got a team and the balance sheet is decent (turning over high six or seven figures) - but there are cracks in the foundations

And you’re worried.

You need to make changes, but you don’t know where to start, let alone have the staff to implement improvements.

But you need to be ready for the next phase.

I know exactly where you are, and now is the perfect time to sort it.

Let’s chat.

Any of this resonate?

    • You’ve got staff, roles are loosely defined, and you’re not doing the day-to-day work any more.

    • You have a strong team, but there are 1 or 2 “bad eggs” who cause a few challenges, and this means you are generally the one to sort it.

    • You need to hire another person, but you're unsure exactly where it’s needed.

    • Your staff are telling you they are at capacity, but are they?

    All these niggles have made you realise that there are cracks in the foundation, and they need to be sorted - quickly.

    • The admin and all the back-office stuff that happens. It works, but it is a bit of a mess.

    • Things have been added on along the way, and it’s all cobbled together. 

    • One or two people know how to do everything, and you’re not one of them.  

    • And maybe you even feel a bit of a fraud because it’s not oh-so-slick. The operation doesn’t match the turnover.

    • Complaints have increased, bigger problems are happening, and balls are getting dropped left, right and centre.

    You want to improve it, you’re ready, but this is not your area of expertise, and it doesn’t exist within the business either.

    • Stuck in the daily grind with no time to think. And the to-do list keeps growing.

    • You're tired of figuring it out alone -  it’s exhausting.

    • You need someone who isn’t “inside” the business to share the worries, problems, and ideas with.

    • An impartial person who can see past the “that’s how we do it” and isn’t going to let anything “slip” to the team.

    • You want someone to guide you and help you make the next important decisions.

You know there is a lot of wasted time, sticking plasters that are hanging by a thread, and dare you say it out loud… There are risks in the business.

You are ready to invest and work with a trusted consultant to move your business forward through its next growth phase.
