Who We Are

With 25+ years of business advice experience, we know how we can help your business grow.

John Owens, an experienced business adviser since 1997, has worked with many firms in that time. Amongst a wide range of business advice qualifications, he holds an MBA from the Open University and is a "Fellow of the Institute of Enterprise and Entrepreneurship".

This means that his qualifications and experience help him to enable client firms to focus on their challenges - and then bring a broad range of his and others skills into play, together.

If a project requires specialist talents and expertise (e.g. HR), we bring in and manage our best Associates with those talents.

These are all well experienced consultants in their own right: we manage them as part of the team for your benefit.

What We Do

We can help you with everything you need to start and grow: from a start up, through to if you've been in business for many years.
