Business Consulting

Business consulting for owner-managed businesses

A practical review of your turnover and, more importantly, your profit, with clear suggestions to improve both. Plus an honest SWOT analysis, a business plan a lender or Business Gateway will take seriously, and operational improvement from 40 years of running sites, teams and projects.

Who it's for

Owner-managed and growing businesses, start-ups looking for funding or grants, and established firms that have outgrown the way they work.

Why us

We’re not a big FTSE management consultancy. Scott McMartin started as an apprentice and worked his way up to managing director. Along the way he has grown two businesses, and he is now creating a third, Saltire Spaces. We work alongside you, not from a distance.

What you get

Turnover is good. Profit is what matters.

Plenty of businesses grow their sales and still struggle for cash. We look at where your money comes from and where it goes, then show you what to change.

Not a big consultancy. Someone who's been there.

We’re not a big FTSE management consultancy with a team of graduates and a standard report. You work directly with Scott McMartin, who started as an apprentice and rose to managing director. He has run businesses, not just advised them.

What you get on paper

Illustrations of the documents we produce. Every SWOT and plan is written for your business.

A SWOT analysis, worked through with you and your team.
A business plan written for lenders, investors or a grant application.
