BizSmart® gives business owners “wings” through a rock-solid, proven system for scaling up and building value. We call this Flight Academy®
Fundamentally we are about helping business owners of small and medium sized businesses – typically with 2 to 30 employees) to create the business success that allows them the freedom and control they were looking for when they decided to strike out on their own – and ultimately gain the quality of life they were seeking. So, it is about helping business owners to spread their wings and soar gracefully!
Our philosophy is based on an old African proverb…
“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together”.
Our business support is based on our structured scale-up journey and value methodology, delivered largely through peer-2-peer groups facilitated by an experienced “Chair-person”. We are disrupting the market for SME business support with our innovative and proven approach that provides real value for owner managers. We are an exclusive franchise and will select only the very best people to join us.

SUCCESS STORIES
Clare Vale, MD of Sign Solutions
Since working with Kevin and joining the first cohort of SmartBoards®, Sign Solutions has experienced incredible growth, enabling us to double both turnover and headcount. Both BizSmart and the SmartBoards® concept have proved incredibly valuable to me and I genuinely believe that all business owners would find the additional direction and support extremely beneficial.
David Lynes, MD of Unique IQ
In joining SmartBoards® I quickly learnt the benefit of peer-to-peer learning and support, where the introduction of quarterly plans and targets have proved really important to us. As a result, 99% of our revenue is now recurring (formerly Ad Hoc) , we have employed 11 new people and are recognised as an industry leader within our sector. Without the coaching, advice and support from BizSmart®, we genuinely wouldn’t be where we are today.
