New engagements for UK consultancies, won earlier.
Built for UK management consultancies. We watch C-suite changes, funding events, and the moments that bring new engagements in — and make the introduction in your voice at the right moment.
The three moments that bring you new clients.
Every new introduction we send is hung on a public moment that changes what a firm needs. Three patterns come up again and again.
Client companies in expansion.
- Client companies raising funding (strategy, operating-model, integration work)
- Client companies expanding into new sectors or geographies
- Competitor consultancies launching new service lines (signal of demand)
- Senior consultant hires at target client firms
The strongest single trigger: new leadership.
- New C-suite at target corporates — new CEO, CFO, COO
- M&A activity at client companies (integration work)
- Restructures or reorganisations announced
- New strategic plans or vision documents published
Firms facing pressure.
- Profit warnings at listed target clients
- Regulatory shifts creating consulting demand (Building Safety Act, consumer duty)
- Failed transformations (publicly reported)
- PE acquisitions — around 80% commission post-deal consulting work

Observation. Problem. Offer. Nothing more.
Every email we send for a consulting firm follows the same three beats. Specific enough to matter, short enough to read.
Hi James,
Sarah Keating joined Harbridge Holdings as CEO last Monday, replacing Michael Rose after nine years at the top.
First-100-days reviews almost always surface one or two strategic questions the incoming CEO wants answered before committing to the next planning cycle — usually market positioning or operating-model. We’ve run these for around thirty UK mid-market firms in the last two years.
Worth a 20-minute call next week?
David
Thirty minutes.
Ten firms. One real look at what is out there.
Book a call. We will ask what you do, run the service across ten firms in your market, and show you the ones we would contact this week, with a sample introduction for each. If it is not for you, you keep the scan.
