Our services allow you to do what you do best, focusing on running your business. We free up your valuable time by taking control of your financial processes and delivering them in a timely manner to give you peace of mind.
If you are looking at starting up your own business, it is critical that you get off to the best possible start. As with anything, building strong foundations will help to promote strength, success and sustainability in the future. Having the drive, skills and ideas to start up a business is a great start, but that’s not enough. To give you the best possible chances of success, you need to make sure that your business is strategically designed to compete with similar organisations, evolve and grow with changing market designs.
Starting a business isn’t without risk and the main motivation is usually to become profitable as soon as possible. However, while profitability is a primary consideration, it is important that you understand the industry and strategically plan for the future in order to ensure success.

ASSESSING THE LANDSCAPE
At AGP Consulting, we understand the processes involved in setting up a business. We will assess your needs and ask critical questions that will help to assess your business’s viability and optimise your chances of success. These questions include:
Are there similar businesses in the area, and is there space within the market for your business?
Are your finance plans secure?
Do you have trademarks and a registered business name?
Are all legal requirements met?
Do you comply with employment and business law requirements?
Are you appropriately registered with the HMRC (HM Revenue and Customs)?
With so many things to consider, it is easy to overlook an important element; it is equally easy to feel daunted by the myriad regulations and processes that you must complete before you can get your business up and running. Our specialists will help your business to get off to the best possible start, while reducing some of the risks of going it alone.
One of the biggest stumbling blocks that micro and small businesses encounter is scalability. A process that works fine for a one-person organisation is simply not sustainable as you grow. Our strategic planning services will help to ensure that you implement robust, sustainable processes from the word “go”. Making good habits now will save you time and money in the future.
We will look at the feasibility of your business plan, assess your proposed structure and business strategy.
Through our expertise, we will be able to identify any funding gaps and examine profit margins and cash flow management. We will also be able to advise on areas where you can save money by outsourcing operations, such as bookkeeping, accountancy and human resources.
Our honest, experienced, strategic approach will help you to create the best possible chance of success.
