💬 FAQs

Most frequent questions and answers

What’s the difference between strategy and consultancy?

Strategy is the plan — consultancy is the ongoing advice and insight to help you execute or adjust it. We offer both.

Is this only for small businesses?

No — we’ve also worked with agencies, marketing teams and multi-brand ecommerce businesses needing external input.

Will you tell me where I’m going wrong?

Yes — kindly and clearly. We believe in honest advice that helps you improve, not just pat you on the back.

Can you help me implement the strategy too?

Absolutely. You can take our plan and run with it, or we can plug in and deliver services for SEO, content, PPC, CRM and more.
