Having run and owned various businesses since 1972 including start ups, buying and selling businesses and advising businesses I bring an experienced pair of outside eyes to your business. I continue to learn from every business I work with and can often offer new ways of doing things more effectively or more efficiently, new markets for products or services and new products or services for an existing client or customer base.
Business Planning is an important part of my work with most businesses. This involves reviewing strategic plans and often I am able to suggest changes which increase profits and help the business grow faster.
We can work on a regular retained basis or on a specific project basis.
