David J Wood · Over £400m in cumulative revenue · Two exits · 30 years inside B2B businesses
If the business is growing but feels harder to run than it should, this call is where that conversation starts.
In 20 focused minutes we will look at where the business stands, what is creating the most pressure, and what the structural fix looks like. You will leave with clarity on what needs addressing first, whether we work together afterwards or not.
No pitch. No agenda. Just a direct conversation with someone who has built, lost, and rebuilt businesses at scale and knows what structural weight actually looks like from the inside.
You do not need more activity. You need clarity on what to fix first and in what order.
This is not a general chat or a tactics session. It is a focused diagnostic conversation about the structure behind your growth, with someone who has lived the same pressure you are carrying right now.
In 20 minutes David J Wood will work through five areas with you.
One of three things happens. All three are good outcomes.
1. You leave with clarity and implement independently.
You have a clear picture of what needs fixing, what order to fix it in, and why. No further commitment required. The 20 minutes was worth your time regardless of what comes next.
2. We begin a 30-Day Commercial Growth Reset.
A fixed-scope four-week engagement at £3,000. David J Wood works directly with you and your senior team to rebuild commercial visibility, identify and fix the structural pressure points, establish execution rhythm, and deliver a clear 90-day roadmap
3. We discuss a longer-term Fractional COO partnership.
For founders who need ongoing senior operational leadership embedded in the business. David J Wood works alongside you and your leadership team on a monthly retainer basis from £4,000 per month.
There is no obligation and no pressure. If there is not a clear fit, that will be honest and direct, and you will still leave with something useful from the conversation.
David J Wood is a UK-based Fractional COO and Business Growth Advisor with 30 years of experience building, scaling, and exiting B2B product businesses. He started with £3,000 and grew a business to £24m ARR before selling it. After losing everything in the property crash, he bought the same business back at £8m ARR, losing £500,000 a year, and rebuilt it to £31m ARR before selling again. Across both journeys, he has contributed to over £400m in cumulative revenue.
He is not a consultant who studies businesses from the outside. He has carried the payroll, managed the stock, protected the margin, and lived the same pressure that founder-led B2B businesses carry. That is what he brings to every Growth Clarity Call.
