What should I do?

Providing business advice typically uses many of the stages associated with coaching and mentoring to address specific business issues where direction and advice is sought from an external knowledgeable source. Depending on the requirements, I provide both direct advice and, where appropriate, would also recommend working with key partners in professions such as accountancy, financial services, and law.

Advice requirements are many and varied, examples include:

• Raising finance
• Recruitment and redundancy
• Introducing a new business partner, exiting an existing one
• Acquiring another business
• Selling all or part of the current business
• Business valuations
• Legal requirements
