Ways to work together
You may know exactly what you need. Or you may simply know that something in the business needs to change.
I help home care owners clarify the real issue, decide what will make the biggest difference, and then turn that into a practical solution.
FOCUSSED BUSINESS REVIEW
Understand what needs to change and what to do about it.
A structured review for owners who need clarity on a problem, opportunity or decision before committing to a larger piece of work.
Typical areas include growth, private-pay development, marketing, operations, CQC, workforce, profitability, systems or reputation.
From £995
IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT
Turn the agreed direction into something that works.
Hands-on support to design, build or implement the solution once the direction is clear.
This can include private-pay growth strategy, website redevelopment, positioning and messaging, referral development, business planning, operational improvement, regulatory preparation or implementation of recommendations from a review.
Projects from £2,500
ONGOING ADVISORY
Experienced support as the business grows and changes.
Ongoing strategic and practical support for owners who want experienced input without creating another senior employed role.
This can include regular strategic review, growth planning, problem-solving, commercial challenge, marketing input, regulatory support and help with important business decisions.
From £1,500 per month
Not sure which is right for you?
You do not need to arrive with a finished brief. Often the first part of my work is helping you to understand what you actually need.
