Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes a brand and management consulting service rather than a scalable technology product. Claims regarding audience reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product') are heavily exaggerated and lack verifiable evidence. Technical innovation is absent, as the core offering is purely management consulting. Due to the lack of evidence, exaggerated inputs, and non-tech nature of the project, it receives a low score indicative of minimal verifiable traction.

Project Details

Description
Inspiring purpose-led leaders and their teams to make more out of their brand’s purpose, direction and communications, that raises impact that in turn grows bottom lines. Many purpose-led organisations underplay the emotive power of their brand, because their natural focus is on delivering impact. My job is to help understand, identity and amplify your brand, transitioning it beyond where it is today. To make it more profitable both internally throughout the entire team and externally to users, benefactors, customers and investors through consistent and relevant communications across all platforms and channels. I’ve 25+ years of experience guiding leaders to build more powerful brands, from the Big Issue to Government departments, global multinationals to around 4,000+ start-ups – so long as you’re striving for better outcomes for people and planet I’m keen to learn more. Recent projects include, redefining Just Park and modernising Flex-Legal both for acquisition, plus the launch of a new charity retail AI tech company.
