Your coach
Hi, I'm Alan Wick
If you’re like most founders I work with, you didn’t start your business to obsess over spreadsheets. You started it to build something meaningful.
In 48+ years, I’ve started, scaled and sold 5 businesses, raised over £5M, worked in 30+ countries, and coached hundreds of founders.
And there’s one pattern I see time and again:
Smart, capable founders avoiding their finances because no one’s ever shown them a way that feels safe, simple, or relevant.
I'm helping business owners develop the confidence to understand their numbers, make informed decisions and build businesses that are both profitable and sustainable.
This lesson is taken directly from Alan Wick's Business of Finance® programme, created to help founders become more confident making financial decisions.

Finances leave you cold? Listen in. In this short video, I’ll show you how to feel more confident in your finances and lead with clarity.
