Why hire a Business Growth Consultant?

Focusing on business growth is vital to ensure your company has continued success and a long term future. Not only does it allow businesses to expand their reach to new markets or develop new offerings, but it also allows them to increase financial resources. As a result, it enables companies to invest in research and development and additional marketing - this in turn continues the businesses growth trajectory. So, where does a business growth consultant fit into this?

There are many different ways a business can expand and grow. Where small-medium sized companies usually get stuck is either not having a clear and executable plan in place, not having the expertise in a certain area, or not having the personnel to get everything done. A Business Growth consultant can help with all of these areas.

Planning

A business growth consultant can help develop strategic plans for the businesses future. They will help to determine what the companies strengths and weaknesses are, and ways to improve them. Additionally, what the goals of the organization are and help to implement steps for achieving them. Actionable plans that have organizational buy-in will help to provide direction and focus to the team.

Expertise

Often we develop our own companies because we are good at what we do or we notice a gap in the market. Chefs start a new restaurant and mountain guides build adventure guiding companies. Or we look for a service and it doesn't exist e.g. I need to get from A to B and there is no bus available - so we build a transportation company. Because of your passion, industry know-how and specialized skill set, these small businesses often start strong. When growth starts to falter however, it's often due to a lack of expertise in certain areas. Sales and Marketing, developing targeted marketing campaigns, understanding the customer, building sales channels, improving your digital presence and online sales. Team & Leadership development, building a strong culture, developing your leadership team, creating a place that staff want to work. These are all areas that a Business Growth consultant can help you with.

External

It’s easier to spot avenues of business growth as a consultant as they aren’t entangled into the daily operations of the business. Sometimes you need someone from the outside looking in to spotlight key areas for growth or areas that need improvement.
