Increase the number of suitable new customers entering the business.
Give existing customers clear reasons to return and buy again.
Improve the value of each sale through relevance, trust and better offers.
Strengthen retention, referrals and the value of long-term relationships.
Define what success looks like and why it matters.
Choose the best path after testing assumptions, strengths and constraints.
Translate priorities into scheduled work, clear ownership and realistic timing.
Monitor customer feedback, delivery, cashflow and the measures that signal progress.
Keep what works, correct what does not and refine the plan as conditions change.
Strong planning gives you a sequence: define the target, choose the path, act, monitor and improve.
Clarify what the business is building, who it serves and what it will not compromise.
Set goals, customer priorities, financial assumptions, actions and review dates.
Align people, responsibilities, standards and processes with the plan.

Unicorn Consultants, along with Internet Marketing Service, was founded by Phil Manhire, a business growth facilitator with over four decades of experience advising business owners, family enterprises and high-net-worth families.
Phil’s work spans strategy, growth, exit and succession planning, with a strong focus on practical implementation. He has advised clients in professional services, trade-based businesses, manufacturing, health, agriculture and more.
The common thread? Helping owners build businesses that are both commercially robust and personally rewarding – businesses that support the lifestyle and legacy they want, not the other way around.
If you’re looking for a sounding board who understands both the financial and human sides of business, a conversation with Phil is a good place to start.
When a client needs specialist support beyond core business advisory, these are businesses we are proud to recommend. Each brings a practical, client-focused approach that aligns with the way Unicorn Consultants works.
Practical digital marketing, search visibility and online growth support for service-based businesses that want stronger enquiries and better-quality leads.
