Startup Consulting
The startup path
Most early-stage mistakes come from doing the right things in the wrong order. Our startup consulting follows four stages, so effort goes where the evidence says it should.
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 4
Business model design
Investors and lenders don’t fund ideas; they fund evidence that an idea can become a profitable business. We help you design a revenue model, cost structure and growth logic that hang together — and identify the three or four assumptions that matter most, so you can test them first.
The result is a living financial model with clear drivers, scenarios and a runway calculation you can update every month.
Customer acquisition cost, lifetime value, payback period and contribution margin.
How long the money lasts, and what must be true to reach the next milestone.
Investor readiness
Fundraising is a sales process with a long memory. A weak first meeting is hard to undo. Our investor-readiness work covers the whole picture: narrative, numbers, team story, use of funds and the documents investors will ask for during due diligence.
We run mock pitches with tough, realistic questions and give specific feedback — slide by slide and answer by answer. We do not charge success fees or take equity, so our only incentive is to make you genuinely ready.
Founder support package
Alongside the core engagement, every startup client receives practical support designed for small teams with limited time.
A standing 45-minute session to unblock decisions and keep the roadmap honest.
Interview guides, pricing calculators, hiring scorecards, board-update formats and more.
Send questions between sessions and get considered replies within one working day.
Where relevant, warm introductions to accountants, lawyers and technical partners we trust.
FAQ

No — that’s often the best time. A few weeks of disciplined validation can save months of building the wrong product.
We don’t write code or run agencies. We help you define what to build, choose the right partners and manage the build against clear goals.
No. We charge transparent fixed fees so that our advice stays independent of your funding outcome.
We focus on making you investor-ready. Where there is a genuine fit we may suggest relevant networks, but we do not broker deals or guarantee introductions.
