How I can help
Commercial support that’s built around your business.
Every business is different.
Some businesses need help making one important decision.
Some are looking to improve profitability.
Some know something isn’t quite working but can’t identify exactly what.
Others simply want someone experienced alongside them who understands business and can help them think things through.
That’s why I don’t offer standard packages or fixed solutions.
Every piece of support is designed around your business, your goals and the challenges you’re facing.
Whether we work together for a single meeting or over several months, my aim is always the same:
To help you understand your business beyond the numbers and give you the confidence to make better commercial decisions.
Your whole business
Business Reviews
Gain clarity. Identify opportunities. Move forward with confidence.
Sometimes the biggest challenge isn’t knowing what to do next.
It’s understanding where your business actually stands today.
A Business Review provides an independent, objective assessment of your business from a commercial perspective.
Together we’ll take a step back from the day-to-day running of the business and look at the bigger picture.
We’ll explore what’s working well, what’s holding the business back and where I believe the biggest opportunities for improvement exist.
Rather than focusing purely on financial performance, I’ll consider the wider picture including your processes, reporting, decision-making, commercial performance, business structure and future plans.
Following the review you’ll receive a professional report containing practical recommendations and clear priorities to help you decide what comes next.
A Business Review is particularly valuable if you:
- Feel too close to the business to see the bigger picture.
- Are planning your next stage of growth.
- Want an independent commercial perspective.
- Feel busy but aren’t sure where improvements should be made.
- Need confidence before making an important decision.
- Simply want to understand your business better.
Every review is completely bespoke.
No templates.
No generic recommendations.
Just practical advice designed around your business.
One specific challenge
Commercial Projects
Focused support for a specific business challenge.
Sometimes you don’t need ongoing support.
You simply need help solving one particular problem.
Whether it’s reviewing your pricing, analysing profitability or helping you make an important commercial decision, I can provide dedicated project support without committing you to a long-term arrangement.
Examples of projects include:
Pricing Reviews
Understanding whether your pricing reflects the value you deliver while maintaining healthy margins.
Profitability Analysis
Looking beyond turnover to understand where your profits are really coming from and where improvements can be made.
Cash Flow Reviews
Helping you understand why cash doesn’t always reflect profit and identifying opportunities to improve financial visibility.
Reporting & KPIs
Creating meaningful reports and key performance indicators that help you make quicker and better-informed decisions.
Business Planning
Supporting future planning through commercial analysis, financial modelling and practical recommendations.
Investment Decisions
Considering the financial and commercial impact of significant investments before committing valuable time or money.
Growth Planning
Helping you understand whether your business is ready for growth and what needs to happen first.
Process Reviews
Identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, simplify processes and support better decision-making.
Don’t worry if your challenge isn’t listed here.
Every business is different and many of the projects I support don’t fit neatly into one category.
If there’s something you’re unsure about, let’s have a conversation.
Ongoing support
Monthly Commercial Support
Flexible support that grows with your business.
Many small businesses don’t need another employee.
They don’t need a Finance Director full-time.
And they certainly don’t need to pay for support they aren’t going to use.
What they do need is someone experienced they can trust.
Someone who already understands the business.
Someone they can pick up the phone to when an important decision needs making.
Someone who challenges their thinking, reviews performance and helps keep the business moving in the right direction.
That’s exactly what Monthly Commercial Support is designed to provide.
Unlike fixed consultancy retainers, the level of support is completely flexible.
For some businesses, that might mean a one-hour video call each month to review performance, discuss ideas and work through current challenges.
For others, it may involve fortnightly or weekly meetings, face-to-face sessions, project work, attendance at leadership meetings or simply being available whenever an experienced commercial perspective is needed.
We’ll agree the level of support that works best for your business and adapt it as your needs change.
Whether you need an hour each month or a more hands-on commercial partner, the support is built around you—not the other way around.
Monthly support could include:
- Regular business performance reviews.
- Reviewing financial performance and key metrics.
- Strategic planning sessions.
- Commercial decision support.
- Accountability and action planning.
- Pricing and profitability discussions.
- Growth planning.
- Reviewing opportunities and risks.
- Ongoing project support.
- Acting as an independent sounding board.
Think of it as having your own Commercial Director or Finance Director available when you need them, without the cost of employing someone full-time.
A single conversation
One-off Commercial Support
Sometimes one conversation is all you need.
Not every challenge requires a lengthy project.
Sometimes you simply want someone independent to sense-check an idea before making a decision.
Perhaps you’re considering taking on new premises.
Recruiting another member of staff.
Buying equipment.
Launching a new product or service.
Changing your pricing.
Or maybe you just want another experienced opinion.
One-off support gives you access to commercial advice exactly when you need it, with no ongoing commitment.
Start here
Not sure what support you need?
That’s perfectly normal.
Most business owners don’t contact me asking for a Business Review or a Commercial Project.
They get in touch because they’re trying to solve a problem.
We’ll start with a Discovery Call.
I’ll spend time understanding your business, where you are today and what you’re trying to achieve.
From there, I’ll recommend the support I genuinely believe will create the most value.
That might be a Business Review.
It might be a one-off project.
It could be ongoing monthly support.
Or it might simply be a single conversation.
The recommendation will always be based on what’s right for your business—not on selling a particular service.
