SME Advisory & Consultancy
For small and medium businesses. We help you see where growth comes from, simplify how the business runs, and adopt tools your team will actually use, so progress comes from clarity rather than more effort.
Get in TouchOur work comes from nearly two decades of running planning, pricing, and process inside a global business, across markets from Lagos to London. That means recommendations shaped by what actually happens on a Monday morning, not what reads well in a report.
Most businesses we meet do not need more activity. They need a sharper view of where the return is, and fewer things getting in the way of it.

We produce fewer recommendations and more clarity. One well-reasoned decision at the right moment is worth more than a comprehensive report delivered too late.
The first question is rarely what to add. It is what to remove. Complexity is the quiet tax on small businesses, and reducing it usually pays before any new initiative does.
We favour practical change over polished decks, and we stay long enough for it to stick. The measure of good advice is whether it can be acted on, and whether it improves the outcome once it is.
01 / Growth
Most growth problems are not effort problems. They are clarity problems. Not understanding who you actually serve, what your services are worth to them, or where the next pound of revenue actually comes from.
We work through the market, the pricing, and the plan together, because in a small business they are the same decision. Pricing in particular is the fastest lever most SMEs have, and the one most often left untouched for years.
Positioning tells you what to say. If the missing piece is a reliable way to say it, week after week, to the people you want to reach, the Content & Visibility Sprint builds the channel, the ideas, and the production system.
02 / Operations
As a business grows, process accumulates quietly. Approvals that made sense at five people and not at fifty, a product list that expanded into overlapping and confusing offers, handoffs nobody designed.
None of it looks like a problem on its own. Together it slows everything down and costs margin.
We look at how the work actually flows, then remove what is not earning its place.
03 / Systems
Software rarely fails because the technology is wrong. It fails because nobody defined what the business needed, tested it properly, or helped the team change how they work. The same is now true of AI tools.
We bring the discipline that makes adoption stick: clear requirements, structured testing, reporting that leadership actually uses, and the change management that turns a purchase into a habit.
We take on a small number of advisory engagements at a time. The common thread is a willingness to question assumptions and act on the answer, rather than commission analysis for its own sake.
Established businesses past the start-up stage, where the founder is still close to every decision and the next phase needs more structure than instinct.
Practices and agencies with good delivery and an unclear commercial picture, looking to sharpen pricing, positioning, and how the work runs.
Companies trading between the UK and African markets, navigating two operating environments, two cost bases, and two sets of customer expectations.
