intro
At any one time, I hold a small number of advisory roles that are carefully selected as those where I can truly add value. This enables me to partner with clients, add something that isn’t already there, or use my experience to bring together a stronger business using the bits it already has.
Founder support
Being a founder or an entrepreneur isn’t always what it’s made out to be, and it isn’t easy. Beyond the glossy exterior there’s often lack of structure, lots of late nights, lost sleep wondering how to pay staff salaries, and doors slammed in your face to mention a few.
You’re not alone.
When building businesses and investing ahead, I can’t tell you how many of these nights I’ve had, or months where I'd draw down my mortgage to ensure my staff get paid. I understand the unrelenting pressure and the often clouded judgement that these scenarios entail - however I also know how a little help goes a looooong way.
I can help. Just as I had advisers in my ventures.
The ‘additional CEO’
Many of the CEO’s I talk to tell me that they have a huge list of priorities however only have the capacity to focus on one or two. This provides an amazing opportunity…. Imagine you had another you? Someone with a bunch of experience to draw on to focus on one of those other priorities that would make a profound impact on you business… here’s where I can help.
I’ve worked with CEO’s on a range of “projects”, including (but definitely not limited to):
Hiring a new marketing director
Implementing new sales technology make the sales organization more effective
Run a new brand positioning project
Review and recommend changes to the organisation structure
Review our agency partners and be sure we have the right partners for growth
Review and make recommendations to our pricing strategy
Review and make recommendations to our GTM strategy
And many more…
