CLARITY. CONTROL. SCALE.
exit ready by design
We help service-based SME founders build a business that runs smoothly, scales cleanly, and isn’t dependent on them to function, so when the times comes you can exit smoothly.
Services
If your business is successful on paper but still leans heavily on you day-to-day, you’re exactly who we work with.
Our role is simple: to help you create a business that is operationally strong, strategically clear, and designed to run without you being the bottleneck.
Everything we do is practical, structured, and built around our proven approach.
We start by getting clear.
Using the Forj Diagnostic, we assess your business across the 10 pillars of scale. You get a straightforward picture of what’s working, what’s strained, and what needs focus.
We create systems your team can actually use.
Together, we build your Forj Blueprint Operating System: processes, delivery pathways, structure, accountability, and rhythm. No jargon. No complexity. Just clean, usable systems.
We embed the new ways of working.
Inside our Forj Consultancy Retainer we guide your team through implementation, helping you create smoother, cleaner operations without overwhelming anyone.
You step into a strategic role - by design.
As the business becomes systemised and scalable, our Forj Partner Programme helps shift decision-making away from you and into the structure so you are exit ready by design.
A boutique consultancy designed for founders, not corporate egos.
We built Forj because so many founders are running successful businesses that are completely dependent on them, making growth exhausting and exit almost impossible.
Our belief is straightforward:
A business should give you freedom, not trap you in the day-to-day and it should be intentionally designed to scale, not held together by heroic effort.
We bring the rigour and thinking you’d expect from a top-tier consultancy, delivered with the warmth, practicality, and partnership founders actually want. Human, approachable, and deeply operational, but still serious about results.
If you want a business that’s stable, systemised, and genuinely exit ready, we’re here to help build it.
