The model

A whole growth team, in one board

Five specialisms most founders would hire five people for. You get them all, pointed at one outcome.

Tap any specialism to see what it means

Tangible results

Executive coaching

The work on you. Founder performance, decision-making and headspace, so the business stops running on your bandwidth.

Operator mentorship

Guidance from people who have built and sold service businesses, applied to the calls you are making this week.

Strategic advisory

The board-level view. Where the business is heading, the plan to get there, and the milestones that keep it honest.

Commercial & revenue

Sales, pricing, positioning and pipeline. The engine that makes growth repeatable instead of down to luck.

Ops, tech & AI

Process, systems and automation, including where AI genuinely takes work off your plate, so the business runs without you in every loop.

Sound familiar?

You're the bottleneck

Most decisions still run through you. You might call it "standards". In reality, it's control. The business can't move unless you do.

You're overworked & stressed

Revenue's up but energy's down. You're earning well but you've got less time for yourself, your health, or the stuff that actually matters. Sleep's sometimes a luxury. Fun is often on hold.

You really own a job, not a business

Take a month off and it all grinds to a halt eventually. Clients still want you. Staff still need you. Freedom? Not yet, because the machine only works when you're in it daily.

You're managing, not leading

You might have built a team but not an engine. You're often still approving, fixing, firefighting. Leadership isn't about being everywhere. It's about building people and processes that don't always need you.

You're drowning in decisions

Every choice feels heavy. Pricing, people, priorities. You're exhausted from overthinking and under-delegating. It's often not a workload issue. It's a decision-making system issue.

You've built chaos, not capacity

Things look busy but not always better. More clients, more people, more moving parts, but often no more clarity. Growth without structure just multiplies stress.

You're addicted to the grind

You tell yourself you love the hustle, but you're secretly knackered. The adrenaline's become the drug. And often a win now comes with a hangover.

You've lost sight of why you started

Somewhere between invoices, email threads and late nights, you forgot the point of it all. Freedom, family, fun. You built this for a better life, not a busier one.

Why Most Service Businesses Hit a Ceiling

To grow properly, a B2B service business typically needs access to commercial leadership, operational leadership, technology and AI strategy, and founder performance support.

Hiring those roles full time would cost somewhere between £390k and £550k per year. Most SMEs simply cannot justify that level of leadership infrastructure. So founders try to do everything themselves. That is where growth stalls.

£390k to £550k to hire that team full time

The Impact Board Solution

Impact Board installs a growth team and board structure around your business. Instead of hiring those roles internally, you gain access to that expertise through a flexible advisory model.

How Impact Board Works

Every membership is built around two things.

Monthly Board Review

Once per month we run a 1 hour board review. This is the operating rhythm that keeps the business on track. We review revenue and financial performance, sales pipeline and growth activity, delivery performance, team capacity and structure, key client health, and strategic priorities for the next month. Think of it as your monthly board meeting.

Bespoke Support

Beyond the board review, specialist support is available on request. Where a piece of work needs more than the monthly rhythm, rebuilding the revenue engine, designing sales processes, hiring key roles, pricing and positioning, fixing operational bottlenecks, or implementing AI and automation, we scope it and build a bespoke proposal around what your business needs.

What Else is Included

Playbooks and Frameworks

50+ proven playbooks covering revenue, sales, marketing, hiring, delivery, and leadership.

WhatsApp Support

Message your advisory team directly between sessions.

Peer Founder Network

A curated network of other B2B service business owners.

Founder Events

Quarterly face-to-face peer events plus an annual strategy retreat.
