Founder

Hi - I’m Dan,

There are two ways I can help you unlock potential in your manufacturing, engineering or industrial business.

I have a zero-fluff approach, so let’s go:

(01) Fast Value:
An 8-week targeted value creation sprint to identify and execute high-impact opportunities in your core business.

(02) The Simple Strategy:
A strategy development and execution programme that takes you end-to-end.

We’ll avoid the pitfalls of (non)strategic planning by building a growth strategy around:

1. Optimising the core business
2. Growing through logical extensions and adjacent markets
3. Exploring & innovating future products, services and business models

I focus on bridging the gap between strategy and execution, guiding you through the critical decisions required to align the day-to-day activities with the long-term strategic direction.

Send me a DM to discuss if you want to drive growth and innovation in your business.

Here's what my clients say:

“Richard was recommended to me as I was looking for someone to help me launch by new company.  He helped me strategise, bounced ideas around, mentored and continues to support me as my business moves forward. Without Richard and his ability to really understand business, I wouldn’t be where I am today with my company.  As things move forward I am so pleased that he continues to be there and support me whenever I need some extra guidance and strategy!”

“We really enjoyed working with Richard. His coaching and 'Connect with Impact' course is set-out in a clear, pragmatic and easy to follow style. He is easy to work with as well as energetic and enthusiastic; the added value to our business was more than worthwhile and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any SME.”

I work with the leaders of interesting, technically-focused businesses, helping them to scale up for a brighter future.

So who do I actually help?  

Well if you're the founder or leader of a business in any of the following sectors:

✅ Engineering
✅ Design
✅ Sustainability
✅ Architecture
✅ Built environment
✅ Professional services

...then I'm sure your life is pretty damn busy!  

So thinking about how to grow your business for future success is just another problem not getting enough time or attention!  

❓ What are the big challenges your business will face in the future? 
❓ How well-equipped is your team to deal with them?
❓ Where will your hoped-for growth come from?  
❓ How will you engage with new, target clients?

And so on.  And so on.

That's where I help.  I bring my years of experience working for and developing technically-focused businesses to help you and your team.

By choosing to work with me, I’ll make sure you have:

⭐ A thorough assessment of the current state of your business and your readiness for the future
⭐ An actionable plan for the future growth of your business
⭐ Robust processes and procedures for business development
⭐ Hands-on support to deliver your plan

If I've just described you and your company, then feel free to get in touch.  I don't do the "hard sell" and will tell you if I don't think I can help.

But maybe there could be the chance to build something brilliant together?
