“Thank goodness we had some local support who understands what we’re trying to do.” – Jackson Payne, Speak Creative
We are proud to highlight the journey of Speak Creative, Business Advisor, Greg Bowers has supported from its inception approximately 12 months ago. The founders faced the challenge of starting their business while continuing their current employment, opting for a gradual, step-by-step approach. This method allowed them to structure and promote their business without undue pressure.
As they put it, “It’s great to be able to check in to make sure we haven’t overlooked anything.”
Business coaching played a crucial role in their development, guiding them on how to seek out and engage new clients in the local region. Their efforts led to significant wins, securing advertising contracts with two well-known and reputable local businesses. These successes boosted their credibility and attracted smaller enterprises to engage with Speak Creative, ensuring a full pipeline in the early stages.
Speak Creative’s ability to secure prominent local clients has laid a strong foundation for continued growth and success in the advertising space, particularly through podcasts and social media. We are excited to see their future achievements and proud to have been part of their journey.
Key Outcomes:
- A planned approach, step-by-step and staying true to the initial business strategy. Managing a work life and family balance, keeping a check on commitments and priorities, making sure they were in the correct sequence.
- Ensuring financial structures were in place prior to commencement in addition to the relevant insurances, business structure and clarification of responsibilities.
- Pricing assumptions for differing packages and client profiles that would ensure adequate margins. This entailed a detailed review of all costs and some financial modelling.
