Life’s varied and interesting working with businesses of all shapes and sizes. What all the businesses that I work with have in common is that they recognise they have the opportunity to perform even better, and create a stronger, more profitable and sustainable business. My role is to help them achieve that. It’s a testing time for business, but it’s the same for you and your competitors. Those businesses that thrive have a robust and considered plan for success built on marketing understanding and strategy. Many businesses feel they can answer key questions but when we talk I find they are only looking at a very shallow level at these issues. I have developed a range of ways of working that allows me to be heavily involved with some, provide only guidance and an external perspective to others and everything in between. I bring a strong mix of financial, marketing, digital marketing, management and sales and combine those with experience from playing top-level sport and studying performance. A powerful combination to help make your business stronger, more profitable and sustainable. I am engaged by clients in a number of different ways – sometimes on a project basis, sometimes providing occasional coaching and sometimes by working on a regular basis inside a business. Typically clients talk to me because they: = have a specific communications issue = feel under threat from changes in the trading environment = are not creating the sales they need = need to create new markets and opportunities = have opportunitiues but haven't had chance or don't know how to exploit them = know they could be doing better If you feel you business is rolling on month after month (not necessarily losing money) and you need to give it a boost then get in touch for a chat and straightforward, pragmatic and actionable advice to make you business stronger, more profitable and sustainable.
