BRAINSTORM NEW IDEAS

You know when you have a spark of an idea. Either for a new business, or for a new product / service / strategy for your existing business.

But you have doubt. Perhaps a friend or partner raised an eyebrow. Perhaps you totally believe in it, but don't know how to bring it to life or to monetise it

That's where we come in. We can:

• Facilitate an ideation session (with you / your team)
• Brainstorm monetisation opportunities
• Teach you brainstorming techniques 
• Lead a design thinking session to take your idea to a product

We love nothing more than a good whiteboard session (physical and virtual). We can facilitate the session, and help you with the output and documentation afterwards

EXAMPLE 2

UNDERSTANDING YOUR MARKET AND CUSTOMERS 

With over 20 years of strategy consulting experience, looking at market strategies, customer segments and competitor benchmarks is second nature to us. We can bring that expertise to your business and coach you on: 

• Market analysis and data collection 
• Macro and Micro market trends and how they affect your business 
• Competitor Benchmarks and Peer Journeys 
• Building up SWOT Analyses to identify strategic imperatives 
• Identifying your ideal customers, building personas and developing customer journeys from awareness to advocacy

We'll not only help you do this stuff, but we'll teach you how to do it for the future. And give you a load of tools and templates to keep up your sleeves for next time.

ROADMAPS AND BUSINESS PLANS

If you know where you want your business to go, you might be struggling with how to get there. We can take your aspirations and help you build a plan. From assessing the opportunities and initiatives to prioritising and sequencing. This could look like sessions that:

• Build out a portfolio of opportunities or actions to take
• Understanding prioritisation techniques to get the greatest return on your time / investment 
• Sequencing initiatives and understanding interdependencies into a practical plan that you and your team can follow
• Building up a business plan or financial model that gives you insight into what you need to do and when (we love a bit of excel here at the GrowthPod)
• Set up a performance management system for you to measure progress against the right targets 

Because it's always easier to achieve something if you have an idea of HOW you are going to do it, right?

DIVE INTO YOUR BUSINESS CHALLENGES

Sometimes we just need some external perspective on a challenge to reveal what we need to do.

Even just talking about it seems to make it seem less insurmountable. Here at the Growth Pod, we're here to listen, and to help you see the light at the end of the tunnel.

We've got a tonne of simple tools that can get to the root cause of your challenges, which will help you choose the right course of action. A challenge session could cover: 

• Under performance review and turn around actions 
• Operational issues and process challenges 
• Root cause analysis and solution brainstorming
• Mindset work to help you see the positives in the issues you're facing 

We're here to roll our sleeves up and help you fix what needs fixing.
