Would you drive through an unknown territory without directions? Running a business without a plan carries similar risks. To compound this uncertainty, Digital disruption is rewriting the rules of business and competition. Fortunately, disruption also presents opportunities to grow your business faster than your competition.
UNDERSTAND YOUR CHANGED MARKET. GET ORGANISED. GROW SALES
Business owners and leaders have endured tremendous disruption in recent years. Few companies have fully prepared for the structural changes taking place.
- Your customers have ready access to extensive online information, giving them the advantage.
- Customers demand more customised products and services, at lower prices.
- Upstart competitors are using new channels (e.g. digital) to sell at ever-lower prices leading to margin erosion.
This is why having a roadmap to navigate your survival and plot your growth trajectory is vital. This roadmap is a Growth Plan.
SETTING BUSINESS GOALS – WITHOUT A PLAN – IS JUST A WISH
Use the 9 Step Blueprint in the growth plan to set your strategy, monitor progress and hold yourself accountable. Having a plan also mitigates against failure.

How GROW Strategy helps
ACCESS THE SMART MAP AND EXPERT NAVIGATION
GROW|STRATEGY is a structured and modular software platform that enables Business Owners to combat disruptive changes by using a smart map (our online platform is like the sat-nav) to plot sales growth using a Growth Plan. Together with our business partners, we also provide the navigation (our consulting expertise) to help you make smart choices to help grow your business.
Many companies develop a Business Plan – mainly for external review, in order to gain funding. This Business Plan then ends up gathering dust as its primary purpose is a one-off event. Few invest time or have the skills to develop a viable Growth Plan, to manage their revenue line by providing answers to:
- What is the market potential in terms of sales revenue?
- Is my market share growing too rapidly? What strategy should I choose to manage this growth?
- Who are my main competitors? How to convert weaknesses into strengths? How will my business compete and grow?
The online GROW Strategy Platform answer these questions and delivers a competitive advantage to your busines. Whilst others are using a traditional map, the Platform helps drive your business growth using the correctly programmed sat-nav. It helps you reach your goals faster.
