Strategy and business development

Understand the situation, choose a direction and put a plan into action.

Strategy and business development

Where should the business focus next?

We learn how your business makes money, which customers you want more of and where capacity or workflow limits you. Together, we choose goals, prioritise your offer and plan delivery. Websites, marketing and systems are chosen for their contribution to those goals. Results help us adjust the direction as we go.

Awaiting clarification

Receiving an enquiry is just the beginning. First, someone needs to take responsibility.

How it fits together

A plan creates value when it is followed through.

We connect priorities to specific tasks, responsibilities and regular reviews. This makes strategy a practical basis for the people doing the work.

KPIs tied to your goal

What needs to improve?
How we follow up.

Together, we choose a small set of measures. Each report should clarify what has changed, where progress has stalled and what to do next.

01

Enquiries that matter

Relevant enquiries and cost per enquiry

We count sales enquiries after removing spam, tests and duplicates. Costs are assessed for the same period and source.

What this helps us decide

Which offers and channels bring enquiries the business wants to pursue?

02

Control over follow-up

Response time, responsibility and progress

We measure the time from receiving an enquiry to the first personal reply, the proportion with an assigned owner and how long cases remain at each stage.

What this helps us decide

Where does progress stall, and who is responsible for addressing it?

03

Profitable customer relationships

Sales conversion, margin and customer value over time

We follow agreed groups of enquiries through to sales. Where the data supports it, we assess customer value using margin, repeat purchases and the cost of follow-up.

What this helps us decide

Which customers and services offer room for better margins?

Before starting, we agree on the baseline, data source, definition and measurement period. We compare like with like and account for seasonality, budgets and changes in tracking.

How we document results

Questions we often discuss

Before we begin.

What will we get from a strategy project?

An assessment of your situation, clear goals and priorities, and a practical plan for the next period. We also agree how to measure progress and who is responsible for following up.

Do we need to start with a new website?

Our initial review determines what to do first. That might mean clarifying your offer, improving a landing page or following up existing enquiries faster.

Can you help put the plan into practice?

Yes. We can deliver a defined piece of work or collaborate continuously on priorities, delivery and evaluation. The scope is agreed around your needs.

Something in mind?

we are a good fit.
