"We came to Propel with stagnant revenue and a leadership team that couldn't agree on priorities. Within six months, we'd restructured our decision-making framework and grew quarterly revenue by 31%. The coaching wasn't motivational fluff — it was operational clarity."
— D. Hargreaves, Managing Director, Lumen Logistics Group
6-month engagement 31% revenue lift Leadership alignment score: 4→9
"Propel helped us stop chasing every opportunity and start building a real growth engine. The fit-check process alone was worth the first conversation."
— K. Ó Briain, Founder, Coastline SaaS

Is Your Business Ready for Coaching?

Not every business needs a coach right now. Some need a system. Some need a hire. Some need to slow down before they speed up. Answer five honest questions and we'll tell you where you actually stand — no sales pitch attached.

How We Work With You

We don't follow a script. But every engagement passes through these phases — adapted to your pace, your industry, and your ambition.

01 — Diagnostic Conversation

A candid 90-minute session where we map your current reality: revenue architecture, leadership dynamics, operational bottlenecks, and strategic clarity. No preparation required — just honesty.

02 — Priority Architecture

We build a decision framework together. What to pursue, what to shelve, what to delegate. This alone has transformed several client businesses before any coaching formally begins.

03 — Execution Cadence

Fortnightly structured sessions with accountability checkpoints. We work on real decisions — pricing, hiring, market positioning, partnership terms — not abstract theory.

04 — Review & Recalibrate

At the 90-day mark, we reassess. Some clients accelerate. Some pivot. Some graduate. The coaching adapts to what's actually happening, not what we predicted.

Coaching Pathways — Choose by Situation, Not by Package

We don't sell tiers. We match the engagement to your actual circumstances. Here's how different situations map to different coaching modes.

Your Situation What You Likely Need Engagement Shape Typical Duration
Revenue plateau — can't break past a ceiling Revenue architecture review + pricing strategy Intensive sprint: weekly sessions 6–8 weeks
Leadership team misalignment Decision framework + facilitated alignment sessions Team coaching: fortnightly with leadership group 3–4 months
Founder overwhelm — doing everything Delegation architecture + role clarity mapping 1-on-1 coaching: fortnightly 3 months
Preparing for investment or acquisition Strategic narrative + operational readiness Advisory retainer: monthly deep sessions 4–6 months
New market entry or pivot Market validation framework + go-to-market coaching Intensive sprint: weekly sessions 8–10 weeks
Post-growth chaos — scaling too fast Operational stabilisation + systems thinking Embedded advisory: weekly + async support 3–5 months

Why Most Coaching Fails — And What We Do Differently

The business coaching industry has a credibility problem. Too many practitioners sell inspiration without implementation. They run workshops that feel productive but change nothing. They offer frameworks borrowed from contexts that don't match yours.

At Propel Biz Guidance, we start from a different premise: coaching should be indistinguishable from high-quality advisory work. Every session ends with a decision made, a priority clarified, or a bottleneck dismantled. If a session doesn't move the needle, we restructure the engagement.

"I'd been burned by two coaches before. Propel was the first one that felt like having a sharp, honest co-founder in the room — someone who challenged my assumptions instead of validating them." — R. Tanaka, CEO, Meridian Health Tech, Belfast

We work primarily with founder-led businesses between £500K and £15M in revenue. Not because smaller or larger businesses don't deserve coaching, but because that's the range where our methods produce the most dramatic, measurable results.

Signals You're Ready

Coaching works best when the timing is right. These are the patterns we've seen in clients who get the most from the engagement.

You've outgrown your own capacity

The business depends on you for too many decisions. You know delegation is the answer but haven't built the architecture for it.

Revenue is growing but margins aren't

You're busier than ever but profitability hasn't kept pace. The pricing model or cost structure needs strategic rethinking.

Your team is talented but misaligned

Good people pulling in different directions. Meetings generate heat but not light. Strategic clarity is missing at the leadership layer.

You're facing a decision you can't undo

Acquisition, market exit, major hire, product pivot. The stakes are high and you need a thinking partner, not a cheerleader.

Common Questions

Consultants typically diagnose and prescribe. We do some of that, but the core of our work is building your capacity to make better decisions independently. We're not here to create dependency — we're here to make ourselves unnecessary.

Engagements typically range from £2,800 to £9,500 depending on duration, intensity, and whether we're working with an individual or a team. We'll give you an exact figure after the diagnostic conversation — never before we understand what you actually need.

Yes. About half our clients are elsewhere in the UK, and we occasionally work with founders in Ireland and mainland Europe. All sessions can be conducted remotely without any loss of quality.

We'll tell you. Honestly. The diagnostic conversation is designed to surface whether coaching is the right intervention. Sometimes the answer is a fractional COO, a better accountant, or simply more sleep. We refer out when that's the case.

Most clients report a noticeable shift in decision-making clarity within the first three sessions. Measurable business outcomes — revenue changes, team performance, operational efficiency — typically emerge between weeks six and twelve.
