I'm finding growing a consultancy harder than I ever imagined.
Not the client work. I absolutely love that. 💗
It's finding and winning the work that's proving challenging.
We're building a consultancy, not simply an Amazon agency.
We work with brands to understand their addressable market, define their growth ambitions and develop the commercial strategy to achieve them. We then build the internal capability and deliver the work needed to make it happen. From advertising and SEO to creative, conversion optimisation and operational improvements.
We're both strategic advisers and the team that makes it happen.
But growing this kind of business in the current market is tough.
We're investing in relationships, LinkedIn, leadership roundtables and dedicated business development support.
Referrals aren't always easy either. Our clients operate in competitive markets and aren't necessarily going to share who's helping them grow.
I know we're not the only consultancy finding new business challenging
So I'd genuinely love to hear from other consultancy founders. What's working for you?
And from brand leaders, what makes you choose one consultancy over another?
