Consultancy, £750 per hour |
William has experience across the whole spectrum of
business, from inputting into strategies of large
corporates to delivering a marketing brand for small
start ups. William has founded 4 companies and firmly
established them with significant market share. William
has also dealt with numerous investors and successfully
sold one company for a significant sum.
William is passionate about helping business and feels
he can offer most value around these areas:
Systems
William has found that one of the best ways to
increase the performance of a company is with effective
systems. These include managing the workforce through
automated internet systems that deliver KPI in realtime,
allowing the management to focus on analysis and
efficiency. Integrating and optimising the entire
business process from customer acquisition to fulfilment
to after sales support.
Marketing
William has successfully evolved several innovative
marketing techniques around SEO, PR and several other
subtle branding tools. In the increasingly competitive
world where barriers to entry are dropping, marketing is
increasingly becoming a key area for most businesses.
Lose this battle and potentially it doesn't matter how
good you are in other areas...
Strategy
William has overseen the strategic development of
several businesses (from literal 'idea in a pub' to
award winning growing companies with significant market
share and profit margins).
PLEASE NOTE:
Due to extensive travel and other commitments, all
consultancy is done via phone. Typically clients prefer
to engage William in a general role to give feedback on
possible strategic and tactical solutions to problems.
William can then identify areas of concern and/or offer
ideas for innovation or improvement. All conversations
will be recorded and the client will receive a copy of
the recording along with a transcript of the main
points.

| Non
Executive Director, £2000 to £5000 a month |
William is available as a non executive director.
This will typically suit start up companies that need
sharp concise input into a business which has a
management team that is lacking in skills in either
systems or marketing.
William can also be a sounding board for general
strategic feedback. All too often companies make
strategic or tactical errors that can cost a significant
amount of money and/or lost opportunity. Williams brief can be to
identify these if they are already in place or to spot
them before they occur.

Funding/Investment |
William is interested in investment opportunities.
Typically these need to fit this profile:
-B2C (business to consumer)
-Niche (there is a clearly defined target market)
-Need (there is a clearly defined need)
-Experience (the founder must have mastery of the skills
needed in the proposed company/idea, however they do NOT
need to have a track record of success in business
generally).
-Commitment (the founder must be able to prove that they
are committed to 'the cause')
William tends to only invest in very early stage
companies/concepts (e.g. idea or feasibility testing).
