What can Business Advice & Consultancy help with?

One of the key benefits of business advice and consulting is that it can help businesses to identify and address any challenges they may be facing. This can include challenges related to finances, marketing, operations, and more. By working with a consultant or advisor, businesses can develop a customised plan to overcome these challenges and achieve their goals.

In addition to identifying challenges, business advice and consulting can also help businesses to identify new opportunities for growth and expansion. This can include opportunities related to new markets, new products or services, and more. By working with a consultant or advisor, businesses can develop a plan to take advantage of these opportunities and achieve their growth objectives.

Another benefit of business advice and consulting is that it can provide businesses with access to a wealth of knowledge and expertise. Consultants and advisors often have years of experience working in the business world, and they can bring this experience to bear on the challenges facing their clients. This can provide businesses with a new perspective and a fresh set of ideas for addressing their challenges and achieving their goals.

Business advice and consulting can also be valuable for businesses that are looking to streamline their operations and improve their efficiency. By working with a consultant or advisor, businesses can identify areas where they can reduce costs, improve processes, and enhance their overall productivity. This can help businesses to operate more effectively and efficiently, and ultimately achieve their goals.

Client Story

Unsticking

A leading video production company with household name clients had become 'stuck in a wall'. Turnover and profits had remained the same for a number of years. I carried out a RealityCheck® and helped the CEO develop a strategy to drive the business 'through the wall'. The company went on to grow substantially over many years.

"I needed help with development of funding plans and projections. Working with Alan enabled us to successfully raise the funds required. He also guided me on who and where we should go for the funding, and how we should approach it politically. Alan is an unusual combination of being both analytical and creative. He has a holistic and distinct approach. Alan is very good! He's a solid chap, funny and listens."

Client Story

First Round Funding

An early-stage SaaS (Software as a Service) business was ready for first round funding. I supported the business by advising on the creation of its first Investment Memorandum, including clarifying its proposition and explaining what was required from potential investors’ points of view. This resulted in a crowdfunding round which beat its targets. The company is continuing to grow significantly, disrupting the sector in which it operates.
