Running a business shouldn't mean carrying all of it yourself.
We work alongside founders who've built something good but ended up as the most overworked person in their own business.
A lot of founders arrive at a point where the business is doing fine, but they're not.
The gap between the two is what we work on.
Revenue is coming in. Your team is delivering. Clients are happy. But it still feels like a lot to carry.
‍
There's a version of running your business that doesn't require you to be the last one standing at the end of every week. One that pays you properly, fits your life, and doesn't need you to be everywhere at once.
‍
Some founders want to scale fast and sell. That's a fair goal, but it often comes with a hidden heavy cost and we're probably not the right fit for them.

If you want to build something you actually enjoy running, we should talk.
We’re a perfect fit when…
You're a small established B2B business
We work best when you're around three to eight years in and under twenty people. Usually the business is an agency, consultancy, studio or specialist service selling expertise to other businesses.
Your business is running you, not the other way round
You’re firefighting, overloaded, and nothing moves without you being involved. You might not always be working long hours, but your mind is never free from the business. You need headspace before anything else.
Your team’s great but everything still needs your input
Projects spill over, information is scattered, and everyone’s working their own way. You need repeatable ways of working that don't always need you to oversee them.
Your clients love you but growth still feels unpredictable
Work comes in feast or famine waves so you're either flat out or worrying about when the next project is coming. It is hard to feel relaxed or think strategically when your pipeline is rough.
You want to be more in control of your role in the business
You didn't build a business to become the most overworked, underpaid employee. You want your role to feel clear, enjoyable and sustainable again.
You're not fixated on selling and escaping
Not chasing a quick exit, not trying to be bigger for the sake of it. You're trying to make the thing you've built work better, for you and the people in it. And you'd love to enjoy it more as it grows.
