ALASTAIR DRYBURGH

The Strategist For Those Impatient To Do Great Things, and Frustrated With The Usual Methods


Case Study: Zero to £20k Per Month, For Work We’re Already Doing, In A Pandemic

Here’s a case study of how a client, Curated Digital, was able to secure a substantial retainer for work it was already doing for free, while its client’s shops were closed in the pandemic.

The pandemic could have been a problem, but you can see here how it turned into an opportunity. The bigger problem was:

How do you sell the idea of “we’ve been doing this work for you for free, but now you need to start paying us serious money for it’?

Have you ever come to realise just how much your work is worth but find you have painted yourself into a corner and already set expectations that now look far too low? I know I have, repeatedly. This is one of the solutions. I wish I’d found it earlier.

What would you do with a similar boost to revenue? Would you;

  • Reward your key staff?
  • Hire extra people so that you can do only what you are best at, and enjoy most?
  • Invest in developing new services?
  • Invest in expert help to improve the business?
  • Or just keep the extra money as a safety buffer and sleep better at night?

What Other People Say

“Our one hour session with Alastair was enlightening – he opened up our minds (and his which we thank him for) to different ways to monetise our business – definitely recommend.”

Sadie Groom, Founder and CEO, Bubble Agency

“Alastair kindly offered an intro call for an hour to start understanding where we are as a business, and how we could take the opportunities we spot within customer experience and present the value back to clients in different ways. His ability to strip back the unnecessary bloat that generally comes from these types of conversations, and apply simple persuasive logic was great. “

Tom Downing, Strategy Director, Freestyle

“Alastair is an extremely astute strategic advisor who cuts to the core of an issue and misses out the fluff. His direct approach is very refreshing and his advice is excellent – taken from real life experience and expertise. I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone to take a look at their sales strategy with fresh eyes. “

Adam King, CEO, Swipestation

What Other People Say

“In the first month, not only did the adjustments we made pay for Alastair’s fees, we identified enough opportunities to pay for the engagement 30 times over the next three years.

We unearthed highly valuable and unique skills that we had been underselling, and now have an entirely new vision for the future of the company. 

We made more progress in an hour a week with Alastair over 4 months than we had in the previous 4 years.”

Sarah Lafferty, Round Earth Consulting

Working with Alastair has had a massive impact already. Moving away from billing hours and £s towards focussing on value has been liberating. It has removed a lot of the noise and given us a lot more confidence in ourselves and the value of what we do. We’re looking forward to the results from 3-4 proposals we have out which are at much higher prices than before.”

Jo Hind, Bird Soup Consultancy

“At Curated we have an ability to look into our clients’ businesses and see things that they can’t because they are too close. It was amazing how an outsider was able to do the same for us, particularly an outsider who draws on multiple different sources. I have never met anyone like Alastair who can bring ideas from psychology, sociology, philosophy and even management theory to bear productively on business issues. We can’t properly calculate the ROI on our work with him because many benefits are still to come, but we are already beyond 10x”
