A career dedicated to growing businesses 

The most powerful way of growing your business is to understand and serve the needs of your customers. After gaining an MBA (with distinction) I have spent 20 years at consulting firms developing customer-led strategies for leading brands including BP, Disney, O2, Orange, Unilever, Staples, Call of Duty, News International, The Prudential and more. The techniques used to grow these firms are applicable to your business irrespective of which sector your operate in.

 

Expertise across key business functions

Accelerating the growth of your business requires expertise in multiple disciplines which I can offer. In your firm this might mean:

• Optimising marketing and sales activities for massive improvements in lead generation and conversion;
• Having confidence that you have got your pricing right and that you are not leaving money on the table;
• Great time management so you work a sensible number of hours;
• Team and systems building so your business runs smoothly whether you are there or away on holiday!

 

Scientific training

“You can’t manage what you don’t measure.” My Ph.D. in the sciences was rooted in a ‘test and measure’ methodology and I believe this approach is fundamental to driving business growth. I work with business owners identifying their Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). These might be rates of lead generation, sales conversions, and incidences of repeat business. We then we use ‘test and measure’ methods to continuously improve them. Multiple adjustments that drive many small incremental changes across your KPIs will collectively have a massive impact on the growth of your business.
