Reliable, unconditional support for SME founders

Not every business owner is born an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurship is a whirlwind ride that’s full of challenges — both expected and unexpected.

With the right guidance, we believe every business owner can be a successful entrepreneur. We help founders accelerate, without losing control. The key?

We support the person behind the business, not just the business itself.

We help founders accelerate, without losing control

Our network of mentors supports SME founders when they need it most: the acceleration phase of their business journey.

Many entrepreneurs find this the most challenging stage of their business journey, juggling roles and decisions that take them away from the beating heart of the business. Time and time again, we’ve seen founders benefit from expert guidance to navigate – survive and enjoy – these growing pains.

Our Approach

You are as important to us as the company. After all, you are the entrepreneur. That is at the heart of everything we do to help you improve, grow, recover and sell your business.

This is at the centre of everything we can help you with when it comes to business growth, restructuring and transfer. We always start with a profit-loss scan.

Ever heard of Profit Leakage?

Ever heard of Profit Leakage?

Profit Leakage = profit from existing business activities now leaking out of the company, expressed in euros. In nine out of ten SMEs, money leaks away unnoticed.

Any idea what that is like for you?

Profit Leakage: what about you?

Our Service offering – aligned with your business journey

Business Improvement

our Business Acceleration Plan

The basis of our approach is ‘business acceleration from the Profit Leakage analysis. But of course, your business may already be doing well. Your main question is: how can I profitably(er) achieve further growth? Or you – for whatever reason – want to exit your business.

Business Mentoring

our Business Mentoring Plan

We understand better than anyone that owning your business is a great challenge, but we also know that it can be very lonely at times. After all, we are entrepreneurs ourselves. You have your business well in hand, with all the ups and downs that come with it. Despite having made improvement and development plans in place and your annual budget well in hand, you regularly feel that your business is simply “catching up” with you.

Business Divesture

our Business Exit Plan

Selling your business. It is a certainty that almost every entrepreneur will face at some point. For many it is a very important moment. It is often your life’s work, built up with a lot of blood, sweat and tears. It is an emotional process and the moment when ‘the rest of your life’ begins. Which business owner has (a lot of) experience in how to manage this important event?

We can boast about how good we are, but we prefer to leave that to the entrepreneurs we have already helped.

We needed an outsider. The thexton armstrong business mentor quickly immersed himself in our organisation like a chameleon”

“I had to constantly re-define our course and think about a successor in due course. I had so many strategic questions and needed a sounding board. That was the moment I got into contact with a thexton armstrong business mentor”

“In the hustle and bustle of day-to-day operations, it is often impossible to avoid a certain degree of business blindness. The thexton armstrong business mentor held up a mirror to us in a very pleasant way”

My advice to other SMEs is to be open to change and improvement. An outsider’s fresh perspective in identifying and capturing areas for improvement and implementing improvements is very valuable to your business”
