growthwheel_logo_with_tagline_high_res_.jpgGrowthWheel® is a visual toolkit designed to enhance dialogue and decision-making between business advisors and entrepreneurs. By focusing on action, it helps businesses grow through a process that mirrors the way most entrepreneurs think and operate. For advisors, GrowthWheel® provides a structured checklist to maintain a 360° perspective, saving time and empowering clients to take charge. Organizations benefit from a unified approach, ensuring clarity in the counseling process. Whatever the business stage or size, GrowthWheel® breaks down key challenges—business concept, customer relations, organization, and operations—into 20 focus areas, guiding companies to pinpoint and prioritize critical actions for success.

When startups or growth companies struggle to launch or expand, it often signals that attention is required in one or more focus areas. GrowthWheel emphasizes the importance of prioritizing efforts by identifying the most critical areas to concentrate on first, rather than overwhelming oneself with plans for everything at once.
