Workshops from £750
New clients typically start by booking an initial low cost workshop to help them map out and explore the problems and challenges they face before they jump into hiring a fractional business advisor.
This approach is two-fold:
It allows you to try-before-you-buy, get actionable insights in to your business straight away and can act as a discovery tool to identify what really needs doing in the business
It allows us to showcase our expertise across a broad range of subjects, and demonstrate how we would work with long-term, without any pressure.
Whilst each workshop is bespoke in composition, we use tried and tested methods and frameworks to get the best out of you in the shortest amount of time possible, so we maximise the output you get and ensure a return on the money you invest in the session.

How does it work?
We have a preliminary call to discus the challenges in your business and advise on best approach for a bespoke workshop.
Once agreed, we’ll send you an information request list and/or access to your finance systems so we can get to know your business ahead of the workshop through our desktop research phase - this is also when we design the workshop agenda.
We’ll schedule a time to get together and do the face-to-face session.
After the workshop we’ll write up all the findings and provide a written report alongside the workshop outputs.
