What's included
Everything in one tier. No upsells.
Slack and WhatsApp access
Between calls, when the question is small but the moment matters. Quick reads on proposals, sense-checks before a difficult meeting, sounding board on a hiring decision. Reply windows during UK working hours.
Full frameworks library
Every Move at Pace framework: the Owner Extraction Method, the Delegation Ladder, pricing tools, sales process templates, retainer structures, hiring playbooks. The same library used inside the £18K Strategic Growth Programme.
What we work on
Six areas, picked in your order.
You drive the agenda. These are the topics that come up most often, in the order most founders surface them.
Pricing and positioning
Move off day rates, structure retainers that compound, defend higher prices without losing the next pitch.
Sales pipeline
A repeatable process that does not rely on the founder being in every meeting. Inbound, referral, outbound balance.
Profitability
Where margin is leaking, which services to keep and which to kill, monthly management accounts you actually trust.
Team and delegation
Who to hire next, in what order, how to delegate so things ship without you holding every decision.
Systems and SOPs
Documenting the top five processes so delivery survives illness, holidays, and the next hire. Useful immediately, valuable on exit.
Owner independence
Building the agency so it runs without you in the chair every day. The work that makes the business worth running, and worth buying.

FAQ
Before you book a call.
Who is Scale actually for?
Creative agency owners generating £100K+ in annual revenue who want a coach in the corner without committing to a 7-month structured programme. The fit is best when you have a clear constraint to work on (pricing, retainers, hiring, owner extraction) and the autonomy to act between calls.
How is this different from the Strategic Growth Programme?
SGP is a 7-month structured transformation at £18K, built for £300K+ agencies committing to a full rebuild. Scale is rolling monthly coaching at £1K to £1.5K per month for founders who want a sparring partner, not a sprint. Many Scale clients started with the Intensive or SGP and stayed on for the long term.
What actually happens on the monthly call?
Two hours, 1:1 with Connor, on whatever moves the most for you that month. Pricing a new retainer, structuring a hire, working through a difficult client conversation, building a 90-day plan. You drive the agenda. Connor brings the operator experience and frameworks.
Why £1,000 to £1,500, what changes?
Cadence and scope. Some founders want one focused 2-hour call a month with light async support. Others want richer Slack involvement, deeper review of proposals and management accounts, and the option of a second call mid-month. We agree the right level on the discovery call.
Is there a contract or minimum term?
No. Month-to-month, cancel any time. The relationship works because it is wanted, not because it is locked in.
What if I am under £100K?
Start with the free Agency Health Scorecard and the Selling Creative Services course (£400 value, free with the Scorecard). Most of what holds founders under £100K is pricing, positioning, and not enough pipeline. Both are covered in the course. Come back to Scale when revenue clears £100K.
