Where are you now?
We work together to rapidly produce an overview of your venture, as a Free service to you. By quickly establishing how your business model works and the progress you have made to develop the key functions, we can determine the sustainability of your existing venture and areas to investigate for growth.
The Enterprise Status Assessment is a simple but powerful questionnaire to check your progress across key functional aspects of your venture. The questions are scored out of 3 and each aspect out of 9, to give quantitative view of your progress. These assessments should be carried out by discussing the questions with someone who has a critical business viewpoint.
Once we receive the questionnaire results we produce a Progress Radar to illustrate what your functional development looks like, for easy reference. We use your details to send this to you, ready for further discussion. All for FREE.
We ask you to produce a Business Model Canvas to describe the key functions of your venture and we use the Strategyzer, Business Model Canvas as the basis for this overview. The purpose of this review is to understand your ventures’ activities and how they fit together with your ‘secret sauce’. It is quick and easy, if you are familiar with business terms and activities.
Your Vision
The Enterprise Status Assessment and the Business Canvas Model allow us to ‘get on the same page’ with your activities and we are better informed to talk to you in more depth about your Vision. What do you want to achieve? This is our shared goal from now on and our commitment to get you there.
Through probing into your current situation and understanding your vision we identify broad areas that will need further development. A way forward can then be established based on your resources and budget.
If this is all alien to you, don’t worry, we can guide you through the process to ensure there is clear picture of your business. Implementing your vision, produces results.
Where do you want to go?
Where do you want to go?
Once we have a common understanding of your venture and where you want to progress, we look in more detail at the key components that will make that happen. We want to establish a clear picture of the viability of the new business development. We do this by looking in more detail in the following areas.
- Market Analysis
- Customer / Product Fit
- Cost / Revenue
- Target Viability
The questions we are intending to answer are:-
- Where does your venture fit into the existing world?
- What value does it bring to customers?
- How do you find your customers?
- Will prospects buy this product?
- Can you make money out of this development?
Where possible, the minimum viable product (MVP) approach is used to identify real customers and learn from their engagement. The Lean Method of working cuts down on wasted product and service development time and reduces spend and resources.
Save time, worry and wasted energy, going in the wrong direction.

Whilst the services we offer focuses on growth planning, our skill set covers a broader spectrum of problem solving, planning and delivery of concepts. Every business is different with their own operating environment and areas for improvement. Get in touch with your query now and we can discuss how we can help.
Our Approach
Our overall goal is to move your business forward and we do this by first, critically assessing Where are you now? We are your critical friend, so we won’t be always agreeing with you or accepting your explanation or reasoning. By challenging and probing and looking for real evidence we can together get to the essence of the issue and assess the impact of any transition.
Only when we have clarified the issue can we start to build a robust and practical way of moving forward. For younger ventures we use the four session Where do you want to Go? service. More advanced ventures that are up and running, we use a more tailored and specific service that suits your needs How do you get there?
Our Products
Our initial Enterprise Assessment is a free service unless you need help having a critical viewpoint when filling out the questionnaire or you have trouble understanding the terms in the Business Canvas Model.
There are three pricing products, Executive, Manager and Mentor that we use to cost out our work with you. They are used to quantify the cost of the work undertaken and we use variations of these to quote on a Scope of work that we produce for you.
Mentor services are on a one to one basis and can be used for individual sessions or on a regular basis to talk through issues.
Manager services have set session contents and outcomes where we look at your business or business expansion to determine its viability. The session rate are applied for contact and non-contact hours depending on the business size and complexity of the task.
Executive services are costed on an estimate of the work to be undertaken and can be multiples of all three product rates.
We use an external Payment service provider so we have no direct information about your financial details. This allows us to comply with all statutory regulations regarding your privacy and data handling.
