The owner
What you want from the business matters. More profit, less pressure or more time can take us in completely different directions.
A commercial review of how the business really works.
You know your business better than anyone. That is exactly why parts of it are hard to see from where you are standing.
We come in without the history. No assumptions about why something is done that way, and no habit of walking past it. What we bring is experience of running businesses, making commercial decisions and knowing where it is worth looking more closely.
Change one thing in a business and something else often moves. Understanding where that lands matters just as much as spotting the change in the first place.

THE REVIEW
There is no checklist
What we look at depends on the business and what you want from it. Nobody sees everything in their own business. We don’t pretend we would either.
The people
We listen to the people around the business. They see it from a different angle again.
The numbers
Accounts, costs, margins, price and demand can all tell us something. What matters depends on what we find.
And everything else
Customers, reviews, the website, the office, a comment in passing. We have seen enough situations to know when something deserves a closer look.

Six months on.
We come back to see what changed, what worked and what needs another look. The check-in is included with both options.
