HOW WE HELP / GROWTH HAS STALLED

Working harder for the same result?

When more effort stops bringing more revenue or profit, the business has usually outgrown the way it's run. We help you find the part that's stuck and fix that first.

BUSINESSES WE’VE HELPED GET GROWING AGAIN

SOUND FAMILIAR?

Signs growth has stalled

  • You're putting in more hours and the revenue or profit isn't moving.

  • Sales are up, but margins keeps slipping.

  • Good months and bad months arrive with no clear reason for either.

  • You've tried more marketing, more staff or a new product, and none of it stuck like it should have.

  • The business feels like it has hit a ceiling.

If you ticked two or more, you're in good company. Most businesses stall at similar points: roughly $1 - 2 million in revenue, $8 - 10m, around $20m and again breaking through $50 million.
The walls are predictable, which means the way over them is too.

WHAT WE DO

Find it, Fix it, Keep it focused

01

Find what’s capping growth

We look across your business to find the one area holding the rest back. Business is having a product or service, that customers buy, for a profit. We call this PCF (product, customer, finance). Most businesses are strong in one, fine in another and quietly weak in the third. The weak one sets the ceiling.

02

Grow customers and sales

We work out who your best customers are, why they buy and where the next ones will come from. Then we sharpen the offer and the sales process so growth stops depending on you making every call and margins get maximised.

03

Fix product, pricing and margin

We find which products and services make money and which only keep you busy. Then we set pricing you can hold in a tough conversation.

04

Build a plan that stays focused

You won't need a complete overhaul. We pick the few things holding you back and the few things working best, put a plan around both, and leave the rest alone.

Businesses we own & run

  • "Before working with Point16, our business lacked clear direction, and as owner-operators, we were caught in the day-to-day grind. Within just a few sessions, we had a defined growth target and a step-by-step road map to achieve it. Five years on, we’ve not only smashed that goal but continue to be blown away by the ongoing support from Point16."

    Jon Harris —  Managing Director, Harper Properties 

  • "Point16 helped us identify the critical areas of our business that needed focused attention. Their team delivered clear, actionable solutions to complex challenges we had been struggling to solve. Thanks to their guidance, we regained structure and started making the most of our contact points and meetings."

    Michaela Hogarth — Ops Manager, Premium Apparel Ltd

  • "We started working with Point 16 at a time where we had grown quickly but were struggling to see direction. Our team was working exhausting hours, and our entire operation revolved around just a few key people. Point 16 helped us identify our challenges and provide a clear, actionable plan. They helped us transform from chaotic growth to a company with clear systems and a sustainable path forward. We can't recommend their business coaching services highly enough."

    Nick Donald — Managing Director, Premium Apparel Ltd

  • "We were struggling to align our team around a clear strategy - everyone was busy, but we lacked a unified direction. We chose Point16 because of their reputation for turning complex challenges into clear, actionable plans. And that’s exactly what they delivered. We not only clarified our priorities but also built buy-in across the team. They helped us uncover solutions we already had, but couldn't see on our own. If you're feeling stuck, scattered, or just in need of a strategic reset, I can't recommend Point16 highly enough."

    Judd Marshall — Founder & Director, AMS

  • "When stepping up our growth at Eversource, Point 16 played a valuable role in sizing the opportunity and enhancing our approach.  They bring a wealth of resources, the ideal mix of specialists to supplement our team and fresh thinking.  We were on the right track. They helped lift our performance."

    John-G Snaith — CEO & Co-Founder Eversource
