A 1:1 business mentoring programme with Tom Lebor that systemises your business, so it is in a place where it can scale.
Organisations Tom has worked with
Sound familiar?
Here's the truth: no one tells you how to run a business, so you make it up as you go. This programme fixes that: clear roles and standards, processes your team actually follows, and a management rhythm that lifts productivity without you chasing it.
Case studies
Creative agencyThe challenge: Growing fast, wrong people in the wrong seats, no repeatable new business process
"Tom helped me to double the revenue of my business through our sessions, helping me to put the right people in the right seats and create an effective new business engine."Founder, Sprint Creative

Client logoWhat founders say
"They audited our fundraising operation, met the key people, analysed the KPI data and gave us clear recommendations. We implemented them and the operation went on to be more successful."
"I had a couple of problem issues I had been procrastinating on for years. They finally got actioned within a couple of weeks."
"Tom helped us use our time more effectively and put processes in place so we could become more productive. That led to year on year growth in sales and profitability."
"Focusing on where I was spending my time has enabled me to be far more judicious. Relatable concepts applied to everyday problems, and worth the investment."
"Bespoke, analytical and practical. It framed what is important to me as a leader and how to use that to strengthen my organisations."
The programme
Not a course, not group coaching. You work one to one with Tom in person in Manchester, building the team structure, standards and processes your business needs to grow without you in every decision.
The investment
No long tie in, no hidden extras. Most founders start on Scale, because a full day a month is where the real change happens.
For smaller teams getting the basics right.
For £2M+ businesses with a leadership team to build.
Meet your mentor
Tom has spent 20+ years starting, scaling and leading businesses. He's been in the seat you're sitting in: the cashflow wobble, the difficult hire, the culture that drifts the moment you take your eye off it.
As an approved delivery partner for the GM Business Growth Hub in Greater Manchester, Tom has mentored dozens of founders through the exact stage you're at, and out the other side. He works with a maximum of 8 clients at a time, in person, so the depth is real.
Is this for you?
Tom works with a maximum of 8 founders at a time. If this sounds like you, the strategy call is the next step.
What happens on the call
The 30 minute strategy call is genuinely useful whether we end up working together or not. Here's exactly what to expect.
We map your team, your processes and what's draining your week. Honest picture, no judgement.
If the next year goes well, what does the team, the output and your own week look like? We get specific.
Tom will tell you straight which processes, roles or standards he'd fix first, and what he'd leave alone, based on what's worked across hundreds of similar businesses.
You leave with a sharper plan. If the programme is a fit, we'll talk about it. If it isn't, Tom will tell you that too.
Common questions
There are two options: Foundations at £1,500 a month and Scale at £2,500 a month. Most founders choose Scale because a full day together each month is where the real change happens. If a minimum of £1,500 a month isn't right for you yet, this programme won't be either.
No. Tom works with B2B and B2C founder led businesses. The problems we fix, people, culture, quality and operations, are the same either way.
No, and that's deliberate. The value is in the systems you put in place, not in ringing Tom every time something comes up. You leave each day with clear actions, then run them with your team and review progress at the next session.
Yes. Tom only takes on 8 clients at a time, so the call is genuinely about whether there's a fit. You'll leave with a sharper plan either way.
Monthly sessions run in person in Greater Manchester. The strategy call can be in person or on video, whichever suits you.
Most clients make meaningful changes inside the first 60 days, from leadership structure to standards and process. The compounding effect on profit and your own time typically lands in months 6 to 12.
One honest conversation about your team, your processes and where the time is going. You'll leave with a clearer plan, whether we end up working together or not.
