You've worked at the top of your industry, and spent decades building expertise, judgement, credibility and connections.  
Now you can put this to work in a business of your own, combining your expertise and the latest AI tools to run your own show.  The Encore Partnership™ helps you find the right commercial opportunity, validate real demand and build a business with serious income potential in 12 weeks. 

TURN YOUR EXPERTISE INTO A HIGH REVENUE BUSINESS 

Experience wins

Imagine work that pays properly, fits the life you want now and puts your experience back at the centre of what you do.

More control. Better clients. Greater freedom. A business built around your strengths, not somebody else’s rules.

I know what that feels like because I’ve built it for myself. I’ve also had the false starts, wrong turns and moments of wondering what on earth to do next.

That's why The Encore Partnership™ exists.



You don't have to figure it out alone.

People struggle on their own for too long

THE ENCORE PROGRAMME™

FOR EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONALS WHO WANT TO BREAK OUT ON THEIR OWN AND GET THEIR BUSINESS SET UP PROPERLY, FAST.

A PRIVATE ACCELERATOR 

When I'm not working with founders, I'm usually knee-deep in an interiors project, chasing down art with a story behind it, or making a case for why AI should be doing the boring bits of your business so you don't have to.

I've founded eight companies, written a book on how to get through the hardest parts of running a start up, and I'm still stubborn enough to think business should work for your life, not the other way round.

I was on my seventh business, was an award winning Founder CEO, running a company with staff, tech, investment, debt and a rather high profile. 

So when it collapsed I was heartbroken and broke, in my mid fifties and after many, many job applications, panicking about maintaining my income and home life. 

So I went back to what I know and love: the skills people have consistently sought from me for years. Business expertise and knowledge built from decades advising startups, SMEs and founders.

And thanks to my own painful experience, I can now help others avoid the mistakes I made running my own show.

I've turned my experiences from running and mentoring businesses, attending and advising world class incubators, accelerators, and venture studios into a set of shortcuts.

I've combined this with my extensive training in AI consultancy, go-to-market, and business management, plus my knowledge of what has worked and what hasn't for literally hundreds of founders I've worked with through my consultancy.

I now deliver these shortcuts personally to my 1:1 clients, and have developed them into a training that will fast track your own Encore.

Three years ago,
I was broke and broken, tired and overwhelmed.

i can help because i've been there

“Honestly, elements of this programme CHANGED MY WAY OF WORKING FOREVER and will enrich my WHOLE LIFE.”

You can’t risk spending the next two years finding out an idea was never commercially strong enough.

You still want to earn well. You just don’t want the old version of work anymore.

You know you have valuable experience. You’re just not sure what to build around it.

challenges you might be facing:

Use what you already know, modern AI tools and expert support to create something commercially strong, relevant and genuinely yours.

A business worth getting excited about

Choose the clients, pace, projects and priorities that suit the life you want now.

More control over how you work

Build something with the potential to pay properly, rather than starting again at the bottom.

Income that reflects your experience

HOW ENCORE WORKS

The Next Move™ Workshop is a free 90-minute online working session for experienced professionals who know they want something more, but are not yet sure what the smartest commercial move is.

You’ll uncover where your experience has the strongest commercial value, what your next chapter needs to earn, which business models fit the life you want now and which opportunity is worth pressure-testing further.

Leave with one opportunity worth testing,
not another list of ideas.

Grab your seat today and find the business hiding in your experience!

four decisions for your next chapter

FREE webinar ALERT!

Think you’ve found it? Now pressure-test it.

The Encore Diagnostic™ pressure-tests your strongest opportunity against six commercial realities: demand, buyer, pricing, income potential, route to market and fit with the life you want now.

You finish with an in depth personal report - your Encore Verdict™: 
BACK IT. ADAPT IT. OR BIN IT.
This identifies the gaps you need to address before investing significant time or money into it.

So you can make the decision with evidence, not optimism.

You have decades of experience and plenty of ideas. The question is which one is actually worth backing with your time, money and reputation.

Test  IF THE IDEA REALLY STACKS UP.

A 12-week implementation mastermind programme designed to turn the right use of your expertise into a commercially validated, high-revenue business with a clear route to the income you want next.

You don't spend 12 weeks learning how to build a business.
You spend 12 weeks building yours.

  3. Design Your Next Chapter™, choose the business and lifestyle that fits who you are today, consulting, advisory, fractional or a service business.

nothing.

Over the years I have seen hundreds of business plans, marketing strategies, AI blueprints, Business Brain docs, business strategy documents, risk registers, forecast spreadsheets and systems and processes for running a business.  It is overwhelming.

I have put together a library of the absolute best versions of these key business documents - the ones that I actually use and give to my clients.  This will save you hours and give you a tool kit to help keep you on track.

This programme is the only one of its kind because you also get to...

continue with Masterclasses, events
and community.  

I'll introduce you to my own network, invite you to be part of a community of your peers - people in exactly the same position as you, help you rebuild the connections you've lost touch with, and point you towards events genuinely worth your time.

Real relationships, built over years, opened up to you.

My network has been a huge part of my own success. Partnerships, collaborations, expert advice, and people I can call when things get tough and I need answers fast.

I'm building this into The Encore Network,
your next step once you've been through the Encore Programme.

You likely already have expertise and a network built over years.

Redundancy or a career change can cut you off from those rooms and relationships, even if it doesn't erase what you've built. This is about reconnecting you, rather than starting from scratch.

No. The AI Advantage™ runs two tracks, one for complete beginners and one for people already using AI tools. You'll be matched to the right level, so you're always building real skill, never starting behind or bored ahead.

Do I need any tech or AI experience to keep up?

You don't need one yet. The first step, the Next Move™ Workshop, is designed specifically to uncover where your experience has real commercial value, so you leave with one opportunity worth testing, not a blank page.

Do I need a business idea already, or does the programme help me find one?

Doing a call with me should ensure you are on the right path, but you've got 15 days from cohort start to try it properly. That's two weeks of sessions.  If it isn't working for you, stop the programme and request a refund, no questions asked. This is a decision you can make with confidence, not one you're locked into.

What if I start and realise it isn't right for me?

Neither is required first. If you already know what you're building and just want the structure and support to build it, you can enrol directly into The Encore Programme™ without the earlier steps.

Do I need to start with the workshop or diagnostic, or can I go straight into the programme?

Yes. The Encore Diagnostic™ works as a standalone step if you just need clarity on whether your idea stacks up. If you go on to join the Programme afterwards, what you paid for the Diagnostic is credited straight off the cost.

Can I do the Diagnostic without committing to the full programme?

The Next Move™ Workshop helps you find the opportunity. The Encore Diagnostic™ pressure-tests it before you commit. The Encore Programme™ is where you build it, over 12 weeks, with full support and structure behind you.

What's the difference between the free workshop, the diagnostic and the programme?

Not at all. Some clients arrive after a redundancy, others simply know their current role has stopped fitting who they've become. Whether that is corporate employment or a different business, what matters is that you're ready to build something that reflects your experience, not what triggered the decision to start.

Is this only for people who've been made redundant or closed a business?
