Business Planning For Growth

Our expertise of over 20 years is in working with all sizes of business. During this service, we offer one-on-one and group collaboration workshop for business owners and organisations wishing to grow.

Whether you're launching new products / services or you're building on existing foundations, we offer independent analysis that takes a holistic view of the areas for improvement, including what works and what doesn't, culminating in a robust and realistic plan for success.

Working closely with you and your team, we'll examine existing processes, challenges and opportunities.  This will facilitate discussion to determine aspirations, potential for expansion, strategic goals and general direction.  Furthermore, we consider possibilities for new revenue streams, the leveraging of existing strengths and what tactical adjustments could help maximise the results you seek. All together, this will form the basis for solid next-step planning, where together we will define a clear pathway towards how to achieve the agreed outcomes.

We'll assist you to implement clear plans that are unique to your business, vision and goals. By providing structure, guidance and support to you throughout the journey, through to execution, we'll also be in a position to follow up with optional evaluation and additional ongoing support if desired.

I am very happy with Purple Dog Design and would definitely recommend them for their professional and efficient services.

We engaged Purple Dog to provide us with a full range of services and they did not disappoint.

Briin and Sol were very diligent, kept to their agreement and did not over-promise or under deliver, which makes a change!

Despite a couple of hiccups (that was not Purple Dog’s fault), the overall experience has been great and this was a very worthwhile investment.

Education Website design

I first approached Sol to help me with ecommerce advice for my educational consultancy business in early 2018. We met frequently during 2018 and through till October 2019 when we launched.

During these meetings I always found Sol to be knowledgeable, amicable and very helpful. We would brainstorm ideas (often instigated by him) and he would action them for me until both of us felt comfortable with the results. I have had excellent feedback from colleagues all around the world who have found our offering ‘exciting’, ‘accessible’ and ‘very comprehensive’.

I am very proud of this and I thank Sol for that.

Sol has also helped me develop multiple resources some for sale and some free. I have drafted resources but he has been very adept at editing them, formatting them (especially for consistency) and making them technologically accessible. I continue to develop resources with Sol.

Thank you Sol. I couldn’t have developed my ecommerce services and all it contains without you and I am grateful for that.

Knowledgeable, amicable and very helpful
