Sometimes you just need to stop and review your own business to move forward in a more effective and sustainable way.
Over time, every business evolves organically based on existing processes and techniques to get things done. However, there comes a time when things just aren’t working as effectively as you need or expect. This is where we help. We are an experienced external pair of eyes who can look at your business objectively and come up with practical solutions for business growth.
We are independent business advisors, very 'hands on' and strongly believe that actually sitting together and using a relevant set of proven Management tools; combined with your existing knowledge of your own business, we can jointly tailor a growth plan. This can either be implemented for you by developing your existing team, or by injecting the tools and skills as needed to progress. We offer a ‘value add service’ to align all activities within your business to grow profitably.
We are here to help you 'Learn' about your own business and work with you to create a sustainable strategy for growth, unique to your business, which is measurable and realistic.
What is our LEARN strategy?
L = Listen. The most important part to listen to what our clients want to achieve and their view on their own business. Our partnership begins by listening to you.
E = Evaluate. We look at the 'current state' of the business and work with you to explore and identify potential areas for improvement. Some are 'quick wins' while others require more detail to identify the opportunity for change.
A = Articulate. We work closely with our clients to get to know them and their teams; tailoring our communication to suit the audience, where everyone's input is valuable.
R = Reason. Each solution is unique. We share our results and recommendations via simple clear presentations to be sure all involved have the same understanding as we enter the 'transitional state'. It is important to qualify what can be done and why it is important to the 'future state' of the business.
N = Numerate. It is so important to look at what the 'numbers say' they may discredit or support findings; but importantly we all know what they say and can then review the full potential for the 'future State' of the business and continue with knowledgeable implementation!

Useful for #Strategists #retailers #manufacturers and #marketers It feels good to ‘give back! Paul went along to a student mentoring event recently at Titus Salt School supported by Ahead Partnership.
As Paul says so well “I was very pleased to be asked to support ‘student business mentoring’ locally. I think it invaluable to share knowledge that benefits our future. I really enjoyed the session at Titus Salt school and thought the students engaged really well. The staff are obviously committed to assisting their students which needs credit. Feedback received has been really positive and I look forward to future events”

It is often said, if you don’t measure, you can’t manage
There is some truth here but we believe it goes much deeper than that. Blog: https://lnkd.in/gqjQg8Q
Have you noticed a trend for ‘round’ or ‘square’ shaped logos recently? Well it’s more than a ‘trend’ it’s a requirement, especially if you have social media accounts or interact within business forums. We believe every business should have a ‘suite’ of logos to help represent their brand via all required formats or forums online and off.
Here are some examples of logos we have designed or reformatted for purpose.

If you think ‘exporting’ might be the next step for your product and business, you might want to consider the following points as a guide before you begin your plan. Blog: https://lnkd.in/eQUwxd6
Anyone who has had experience of exporting also knows what a minefield it can be and that mistakes can be costly not only in money, but time too!
