Helping Founders Win More Sales
and Retain More Customers
With 35+ years across the UK, US, Canada, and Asia diagnosing and fixing the structural issues behind missed follow-ups, misaligned sales execution, broken handovers, and inconsistent retention. I find the leak. Then I fix it.
35+ Years of Operational Execution · Zero Fluff
Where Good Businesses Lose Ground
If your revenue isn't scaling with your effort, one of these three gaps is the cause.
The Sales Gap
Leads come in, but follow-up is inconsistent. Whether it's the wrong person or the wrong approach, "qualified" opportunities are quietly disappearing before they close.
The Handover Gap
Work is sold one way and delivered another. This friction between sales and operations kills client trust in the first 30 days and forces you to step in to "save" the account.
The Retention Gap
You are losing customers as fast as you win them. Without a strategy to protect and grow existing accounts, you're stuck on a treadmill, working harder just to stay in the same place.
Built With You. Not Just Handed Over
I work as your Operational Partner to eliminate friction and capture lost revenue in four key areas.
1. Sales Execution
Establishing a methodical, repeatable science of sales that wins more customers and sets high-integrity expectations.
2. Clean Handovers
Raising the bar on internal procedures to ensure your clients immediately know they made the right choice in partnering with you.
3. Onboarding & Success
Designing comprehensive onboarding that turns early-stage friction into the foundation of a lasting, high-LTV relationship.
4. Retention & Growth
Implementing customer-first strategies that don't just reduce churn but provide the feedback loop needed to inform your product.

Customer Journey Matters
Where AI Fits In
AI amplifies what's already there. Good journeys get better. Broken ones get louder. Worth sorting the journey before layering anything on top.
Practical AI, Applied Correctly
I help founders figure out where AI actually belongs in their business.
I'm not a developer. I'm the operator who understands AI and sees the end-to-end business. I know where automation helps, and where it just speeds up a broken process.
What I Do
Identify the specific friction points in sales, handover, onboarding, and retention where AI creates real leverage, not noise. Map the workflow. Define the outcome.
What I Don't Do
I don't build the systems. I don't write the code. I work with the right technical specialists when implementation is needed, once the strategy is clear.
Why That Matters
You get the operational judgement of 35+ years plus technical build quality from people who do nothing else. No wasted subscriptions. No half-finished automations. Just the right AI in the right place.
The cost of AI in the wrong place is higher than the cost of no AI at all.

What People Say
Questions founders actually ask
How is this different from hiring a business consultant?
Most consultants hand you a report and disappear. I work alongside you inside your business until the results are real. The difference is implementation not just diagnosis.
What kind of business do you work with?
Founder-led service businesses typically between 5 and 30 people. Businesses where sales conversations matter, work gets handed into delivery, and the founder is still too involved in keeping everything moving.
Since you work internationally, does that affect how we work together?
Not at all. I have been working remotely across the UK, US, Canada and Asia for over 25 years. Every engagement runs via video, messaging and your client portal. Working remotely has real advantages that most people do not consider. It is less intrusive on your team. People behave more naturally when there is not a consultant sitting in the corner of the office. And after 25 years of reading situations through a screen I have developed a sharper ability to pick up on what is really being said and what is not.
How long does the Founders Audit take?
The audit typically runs over 20 to 30 days. We agree on boundaries and approach prior to engagement and the audit progress will be updated in your online Client Area throughout. You get a clear written report at the end. What it takes from you and your team is honest answers, transparency and a willingness from you as the founder to hear the truth about what is actually happening.
Do I have to commit to all four phases?
No. The Discovery Call works out what you actually need. Some businesses need the full sequence. Others need something more focused. We agree the scope before anything starts.
I have used consultants before and it did not work. Why would this be different?
Because most consultants only solve the surface problem they were hired to solve and leave. I take a universal approach. During the Founders Audit I check the integrity of the full chain — lead flow, sales, handoff, delivery, customer support and retention. After the Audit you have a clear picture of what is actually happening and you are in control. You can choose to move forward with a 30 to 40 day Priority Sprint, then Ongoing Support if you want to keep building. Quite frankly it is up to you.
