Strategic Mentors

► What We Do Differently?
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
We 𝗮𝗰𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲 companies, 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿 with owners, or 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗿 individuals to build high-income, high-value companies. We structure them so as business grows life becomes easier, not harder. 

We help founders 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 so they're financially set for life for the rest of their lives. 

Whether post-acquisition, or while partnering or mentoring, we use this framework:

🔸 𝗣𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝟭 - 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗲
→ Starting position: there's a revenue ceiling, and roller-coaster income pattern
→ New outcome: consistent leadflow, high conversions with 'pull' rather than 'pitch'
→ Breakthrough the ceiling, stay at the new level, continue to build

🔸 𝗣𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝟮 - 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝘁
→ Starting position: delivery capacity is limited, constraining growth
→ New outcome: unblock the model to expand capacity at higher profitability
→ Cashflow consistently building as constraints on scale and profitability fixed

🔸 𝗣𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝟯 - 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
→ Starting position: business depends on founder, hence locked-in and low valuation
→ New outcome: evolved business no longer depends on founder
→ Founder is now a Profit Orchestrator, no longer locked-in to the hamster wheel

1️⃣ Helping turn Founder Businesses into Sellable/Freedom Businesses - from "I'm busy in the business" to "I own this brilliant asset", with the option to keep or sell 2️⃣ Investor & Mentor

For B2B service business owners who've hit six figures but found themselves working harder than ever: there's a different path to seven figures that doesn't demand more of your time and energy.

This isn't just theory - it's wisdom gained from experience....

I've spent 20 years building, exiting, and helping others scale their businesses. But my greatest business lesson didn’t come from financial success—it came from personal tragedy.

When my wife was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumor, I had to reimagine everything. With young kids at primary school, business had to fit my life—not the other way around. Money wasn’t the issue. Time was.

After losing her, I had to rebuild with new boundaries. Limited working hours forced me to think differently. The surprise? My business performed better than ever.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗠𝘆 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗗𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁?
Most six-figure businesses grow through addition—more revenue, more clients, more complexity. They hit a ceiling because their business depends on them.

Instead, I help business owners become Multipliable—so as the business grows, it gets lighter, not harder to manage. 

Breaking the £1M barrier changes everything—we use surplus cashflow to build a £2M Freedom Fund for true financial independence.

❯ Multiply results while reducing stress—grow without more work.
❯ Retain control while lightening the load—protect your autonomy.
❯ Build financial independence—a business with profits, not pressure, and £100K+ in passive income for life.

𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗜 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵:
1. B2B service-based business owners ready for sustainable, intelligent growth.
2. Founders who want their business to fund their freedom, not consume their life.
3. Leaders who know success isn’t just about more money—but more choices.
