Build the
company that
survives you.
Twenty-two years operating. Two companies built, one sold. I advise eight founders at a time on pricing, sequencing and the decisions that cannot be delegated.

Positioning
Most advice in this category comes from people who left the arena a decade ago. I still run a company. That is the entire difference.
Expertise
Four areas where I am useful
Pricing & Margin
Repricing programmes, packaging and the delivery work that has to follow.
Sequencing
Turning an agreed strategy into an ordered plan with owners and dates.
Senior Hiring
Scorecards, final-round interviewing and the first ninety days.
Founder Transition
Moving from operator to owner without breaking the company on the way.
Work with me
Three engagements
Scoped to a decision or a period, never sold as a package. If none of them fits, I will say so.
