Running Blind Is Expensive

Most business owners have a feeling. Margins tighter than they should be. The team busy but profit not reflecting it. Complaints that keep happening in the same area. Staff turnover that costs a fortune to replace.

The problem isn't that you're doing anything wrong. The problem is you're running blind. No external benchmark. No independent view. No way of knowing whether what you're experiencing is normal for your sector — or a fixable problem costing you £40,000 a year.

The Diagnostic Assessment fixes that. In 5 working days.

The Guarantee

"If after reading your report you don't feel you've received at least £599 of genuine, specific insight into your business — email us within 7 days for a full refund. No forms, no questions, no awkward conversations."

What Lands in Your Inbox

Five tangible deliverables. Every one produced by a consultant, not a template.

Diagnostic Assessment Report

Branded PDF, approximately 20–30 pages. Executive summary, RAG scorecard across all 10 pillars, written findings per pillar, quantified savings or risk figures, and prioritised top 5 recommendations.

Loom Video Walkthrough

10–15 minutes recorded by the consultant. Plain English summary of key findings. What the numbers mean, where the biggest opportunities are, and what to prioritise first.

45-Minute Results Call

Live video call to walk through the RAG scores, discuss findings in depth, and agree priority actions. This is the conversation most business owners have never had about their operation.

Next Steps Menu

Clean one-page PDF listing all Focus Services relevant to your specific findings, with prices. A clear menu of what's available if you want to go further on any red or amber area.

30-Day Follow-Up Call Bonus

A second call, one month after delivery. How has implementation started? What questions have come up? What needs clarifying? Included free this month only.

Six Steps. Five Working Days.

From purchase to report delivery. No site visit. No disruption to your team.

1

Purchase and Onboarding — Day 0

You purchase via the website. You receive an onboarding email with your Client Information Form link, document request list, and your five-day delivery timeline.

2

Client Information Form — Day 1–2

You complete a structured online form covering all business data. Approximately 30–45 minutes of your time. This is the primary input we build the assessment from.

3

Document Review — Day 2–3

You upload the requested documents — accounts, P&L, any existing process documents. We analyse them remotely. No access to your systems required.

4

Independent Desk Research — Day 3–4

We research using publicly available sources: Google reviews, Companies House filings, social media, website analysis, sector benchmarks. This is the external picture most owners never see of their own business.

5

Report Production — Day 4–5

The branded Diagnostic Assessment Report is produced. The Loom video walkthrough is recorded. Both are reviewed before delivery.

6

Results Call — Day 5

45-minute video call presenting findings, walking through your RAG scorecard, discussing priority areas. This is where the report becomes an action plan.

How can you do this without coming on-site?

What we analyse is your data, your processes and your numbers — not your physical space. Your accounts tell us your margin story. Your Google reviews tell us your quality story. Your Companies House filings tell us your compliance story. Your intake form tells us everything else.

One call fills the gaps. We don't need to watch your team work to know whether your systems are letting you down — the numbers already show it.

The report we produce remotely is more detailed than most owners receive from consultants who have spent three days on-site.

P&L
Your Accounts

Margin story. Revenue trend. Overhead ratio. Cash flow gap. Benchmarked against your sector.

★★★
Google Reviews

Quality story. Complaint patterns. Reputation score versus local competitors.

CH
Companies House

Compliance story. Filing history. Director changes. Any legal actions on record.

BM
Sector Benchmarks

How your numbers compare to other businesses your size, in your sector.

MS
Mystery Shopper Test

We test your enquiry response — speed, professionalism, and conversion readiness.

This assessment is for you if...

  • You feel like the margin should be better but can't pinpoint why
  • You've grown but your processes haven't kept up
  • You're handling more complaints, callbacks or staff issues than you'd like
  • You want an honest external view before making a significant investment or change
  • You've never had an independent review of your operation
  • You want to know your numbers before approaching investors, lenders or a potential buyer

Founding-client results — coming soon

We’re onboarding our first cohort of founding clients now. Verified, named results will appear here as those engagements complete. In the meantime, the guarantee below carries the risk, not you.

Who does the work

Carl Trigg

I'm Carl Trigg, founder of Flow Efficiency. I've spent nearly twenty years finding and fixing operational waste — from defence to automotive, manufacturing to storage, and education to the nuclear sector. The methods that save big companies millions rarely reach smaller businesses, and that's what I'm here to change.

Every engagement is delivered personally — which is why availability is limited to 3 new engagements a month.

FAQs

You complete the Client Information Form when you receive it — approximately 30–45 minutes. You'll also be asked to upload some documents: last two years of accounts, most recent P&L, and any existing process documents. That's it. We do the rest.
Under 2 hours total. Around 45 minutes to complete the intake form and gather documents, and 45 minutes for the results call. Everything in between is handled by us.
Email us within 7 days of receiving your report and we will refund you in full. No forms to complete, no questions asked, no awkward conversation. The guarantee is unconditional.
Yes. The findings and the £ figures in the report scale with the size of your business. A £300k turnover business and a £3m turnover business will both receive a full 10-pillar report — the savings figures will reflect their respective scale.
You implement the recommendations yourself, or you choose from the Focus Services menu — specialist follow-on engagements targeting specific red and amber areas. There is no obligation to do anything beyond the assessment. The report stands alone as a complete piece of work.
What happens next

Every engagement comes with 3 months of Flow OS included free — your KPIs tracked and reviewed monthly so the savings stick.
