Detailed description of your products and services offering

Market Research & Competitive Analysis (Editable)

The business consulting market in Greater London is valued at approximately £4.2 billion annually, with strong demand from SMEs seeking to improve operational efficiency and profitability. Our target market of businesses with £500k-£5m annual revenue represents approximately 12,000 potential clients in the Greater London area. Whilst the market is competitive with established consulting firms, we differentiate through our focus on practical, affordable solutions specifically designed for SMEs. Our pricing is 30-40% below larger consultancies whilst maintaining high service quality through our lean operating model and technology-enabled delivery. Market research indicates that 68% of SMEs in our target segment report dissatisfaction with traditional consulting offerings, citing high costs and lack of practical implementation support.

Analysis of your target market and competitive positioning

Sales & Marketing Strategy (Editable)

Our go-to-market strategy focuses on three key channels: personal networking through business groups and professional associations, a strong online presence through our website and social media platforms, and strategic partnerships with complementary service providers. We allocate £6,930 annually to marketing, with emphasis on digital marketing (£3,000), professional website development and hosting (£2,040), networking activities (£1,440), and printed marketing materials (£450). Our sales approach centres on consultative selling, where initial free assessments demonstrate value and lead to project engagements. We expect 60% of revenue to come from project work in year one, transitioning to 70% retainer-based revenue by year three as we build long-term client relationships. Our customer acquisition cost is estimated at £850 per client, with average client lifetime value of £12,500.
