How I work

No big strategies to start. Just clarity, then structure.

Most owners I meet aren't short of work. They're short of a clear view of the whole business. That's where we start.

The process

How we'll work together

  1. A free 30-minute call

    We talk about what's going on in your business and whether I can help. No obligation.

  2. Get everything out of your head

    Your cash, your team, your time and how it all connects goes on paper, often as a drawing, so you can see it clearly.

  3. See what's really going on

    Where you are now, where you want to be, and what's stopping you getting there. Once you can see it, decisions get easier.

  4. Build the structure

    We build around what actually matters: better decisions, a team that runs without you standing over it, and your time back, with clear actions to take away each time.

What's stopping you going from A to B?

Where you are now, where you want to be, what's in the way, and the actions for this week. This is what a first session looks like.

Planning

A first session

From A to B, on one page

This is a real session map. On the left, where the business was: £1.36m turnover, in and out of the overdraft, 3.4% profit and working too much. On the right, the goal: £2m turnover, a £30k buffer in the bank, 20% profit and a three-day week.

In between sit the challenges, the solutions in order, and three actions for that week. Simple enough to stick on the office wall.

What we work on

Cash, team, time and clients

Every business problem I see comes back to one of these four. We look at all of them together, because they're connected.

Cash

  • Incoming
  • Outgoing
  • Profit

Team

  • Roles
  • Capacity
  • Accountability

Time

  • Where it goes
  • What matters
  • What drains

Clients

  • Right work
  • Right price
  • Right fit

The cherry on top: finance

Big profit sits on solid layers: knowing your numbers, tight credit control, invoicing on time, tracking jobs, quoting correctly and attracting grade A clients.

Profit is the cherry on top

You can't judge a business by its bank balance. Real profit sits on solid layers underneath: knowing your numbers, tight credit control, invoicing correctly and on time, tracking jobs, quoting properly and winning the right clients.

Get the layers right and the cherry takes care of itself.
