FOR OWNER-LED AND SME BUSINESSES

You have built the business. Now it needs to perform beyond you.

Pivot Point 360 works with established owner-managed, founder-led and family businesses that have real revenue, real customers and real operational complexity, but are no longer getting the performance their effort should be producing.

We help you identify what is holding the business back, strengthen the commercial and operational foundations and build the accountability needed for the business to perform with less dependency on one person.

From investor briefing to embedded results.

The Pivot Point 360 Breakthrough Framework is a structured five-phase engagement model developed from 30 years of executive leadership across multiple industries and market contexts. Every portfolio company engagement follows this sequence adapted to the specific asset, investment thesis, and value creation timeline.

Phase 01

Diagnose

Uncover the absolute business truth: profit leaks, sales gaps, pricing gaps, structural accountability deficits, and margin erosion.

Phase 02

Stabilise

Immediately address operational volatility, cost leakage, workflow duplication, and leadership capacity constraints.

Phase 03

Strengthen

Embed commercial habits, structured management rhythms, KPIs, and collective executive accountability.

Phase 04

Scale

Establish the governance, leadership depth, and market focus required to expand without destabilising the core business.

Phase 05

Embed

Institutionalise new management behaviours, performance standards, and systems as permanent components of the operating culture.

HOW WE ENGAGE — 4 STEPS

1

Introduction call

30 focused minutes. We listen. You decide if there's a fit.

2

The Diagnostic

We look inside the business — numbers, operations, sales, team, leadership and commercial model — to identify the real constraints.

3

A clear plan with measurable outcomes

You receive a practical plan with clear priorities, specific outcomes, timelines and accountability. No ambiguity. No generic recommendations.

4

Execution alongside your team

Where needed, we work with you and your leadership team to implement the changes, strengthen accountability and embed better ways of operating.

IF THESE ISSUES FEEL FAMILIAR

You are in the right place.

Sales are coming in, but cash is still tight.

Growth does not always create profit. We help identify where margin, cash and control are being lost — then fix the structure behind the problem.

The business still depends too heavily on you.

Owner dependency limits growth, value and resilience. We help build the systems, accountability and leadership rhythm needed for the business to run with less reliance on one person.

Your team is busy, but execution is inconsistent.

Activity is not the same as progress. We help create clearer ownership, better follow-through and stronger accountability across the business.

Revenue has plateaued and you are not sure why.

Growth ceilings usually have causes. We diagnose whether the constraint sits in sales, pricing, operations, leadership, accountability or execution — then build the path forward.

SENIOR PARTNER DESK

Senior advisory support for business owners who need more than a once-off plan.

Some business owners do not need another report. They need a senior thinking partner who understands the business, stays close to the numbers, challenges the thinking, and helps keep execution moving.

The Senior Partner Desk is a retained advisory relationship for owner-managed and founder-led businesses that need consistent senior input without appointing a full-time executive.

It is designed for business owners who want sharper decisions, stronger accountability, better follow-through and measurable improvement in business performance.

This is not coaching.
It is not a fractional role.
It is not generic mentoring.

It is senior business performance advisory, structured around the real issues inside your business.

What's included

Depending on the needs of the business, the Senior Partner Desk may include:

Monthly business performance advisory session

Review of key numbers, priorities and pressure points

Support between sessions on key decisions

Quarterly business review with the leadership team

Accountability rhythm around agreed priorities

Commercial scorecards, templates and practical frameworks

Support with profit improvement, owner dependency, execution and team accountability

Annual planning session to set the next 12-month direction

Investment

From £5,999 / month

Senior Partner Desk engagements are scoped according to the level of support required.
Most engagements are structured over 6 to 12 months, with clear outcomes, review points and agreed priorities. We work with a limited number of advisory clients at any one time so each business receives the senior attention it deserves.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF

01You are still the person everyone comes to for the difficult decisions.

03The business is growing, but profit or cash is not where it should be.

05Your leadership team is capable, but accountability is inconsistent.

02You are making too many important decisions alone.

04You know the business needs to move to the next level, but the path is not clear.

06You need senior thinking inside the business, but not a full-time executive appointment.

HOW IT WORKS

The Senior Partner Desk usually follows the Business Performance Diagnostic.

We first understand what is really holding the business back. Then, where there is a strong fit, we continue alongside the business owner and leadership team to help implement the priorities that matter most. This keeps the advisory relationship practical, focused and connected to measurable business improvement.

The first step is a clear conversation.

A conversation costs nothing. Staying stuck costs everything.
