We’re here for the long haul and we’ll tell you why…having been in your shoes…we know this is what we would have wanted back when we started…someone to hold our hand…listen when the going gets tough…roll their sleeves up get stuck in…not just tell you what to do…that’s way too easy.

The 3 key ingredients for growing your impact…
It’s not rocket science…but it can be tricky to see the wood for the trees when you are trying to make a difference. We believe there are 3 key areas to a business:
- Your business model – how you make a profit so you can reinvest to make even more impact. What are the products or services that you sell and to whom? What helps you to be sustainable? How is the revenue you generate, intrinsically linked to your impact?
- Your structure – a well-run organisation will achieve greater impact. From the outset, you need to have the right legal structure in place, the right skills and oversight, and a clear vision and mission that keeps you on track.
- Your impact – how do you create impact? Can you prove it? What measures are in place to capture the right information and how do you tell the world? Stories on their own are not enough…
We work alongside you to help you achieve greater impact…
If you’re not sure where to go next with your business…give us a shout. We’re very happy to chat over a cuppa and discuss your challenges…more than likely we’ve faced the same things in our careers…because we are not management consultants who have never seen the factory floor or done something from the ground up! We are genuine social entrepreneurs who have started up, grown, exited and failed!
