We’re Not Your Typical Suit-Wearing, Buzzword-Spouting Business Advisors

Are you tired of business advisors who charge $500/hour to tell you to “leverage synergies” and “optimise your customer journey”? Yeah, us too.

Here’s the thing about small and medium business owners: You’re expected to be an expert at everything. Marketing guru, financial wizard, HR specialist, IT support, customer service champion, and somehow still find time to actually run the business you started. Oh, and maintain a work-life balance while you’re at it.

Trying to be good at everything when you’re already good at something important……That’s not realistic. That’s insane.


The Truth About What We Do

We Have Nationwide Networks of Advisors Who Know Their Stuff

Our advisors across New Zealand and Australia aren’t just flying solo with a business card and a prayer. They’ve got their own hard-earned experience, plus the backing of our entire Prime Strategies team and a resource library that doesn’t suck. Think of it as having a whole business support crew, but without the committee meetings and corporate nonsense.

We help with the stuff that keeps you up at night: business plans that work in reality, strategies that survive first contact with customers, financial management that doesn’t require a PhD, sales and marketing that actually brings in customers, systems that don’t fall apart when you’re on holiday, and recruitment that doesn’t end in disaster.

Our Superpower?

We’re not you. We’re not emotionally attached to your brilliant ideas or your expensive mistakes. We can see the forest when you’re stuck staring at trees, and we’re not afraid to point out when the emperor has no clothes.

But here’s the kicker: We don’t just tell you what’s wrong and then disappear. We work with you to actually fix it. We hold you accountable to do the stuff you said you’d do (because let’s be honest, good intentions don’t pay the bills), and we create measurable ways to know if it’s actually working.

Because advice without accountability is just expensive conversation.

  • Before we started working with Dave, sales were struggling and nobody knew who we were. We had no presence in the market at all. That has completely changed. Sales have increased, our market presence has grown, and our headspace has gone from stressing about cashflow around the clock to figuring out how to get all the projects done that we are winning. We are moving to larger premises, adding machines, and taking on more staff to keep up with demand. We would 100% recommend jumping on with Dave at Prime. It is a bit of a slow burn, so do not expect results from day one, but stick with it. The results do arrive, and they are better than you expected them to be.

  • “Fiona from Prime Strategies Group has been a huge help for me and my business.

    Using some smart systems and ideas, that she provided, things are running much smoother and a lot less stressful than they had been in the past.

    I now have my weekends back and get to spend more time off the tools and working on growing the business.”

  • "I'm told that my industry is in slow decline, but my business is going against that trend and profits are increasing.

    Dave from Prime Strategies Group has introduced more robust systems and sales and marketing initiatives into my business that are getting great results.

    Dave keeps me accountable in these challenging times."

  • Before Dave came on board, the business was chugging along but cashflow and time were always tight. With so much work coming through the door, we never had the headspace to actually stop and look at how the business was running, let alone improve it. Dave didn't look to overhaul everything straight away. The first few months were mostly conversation, talking through structure and helping us nut things out, and once we started properly tracking the numbers, the picture got a lot clearer. The biggest shift has been seeing the figures each week instead of just feeling that things were probably okay, and having the confidence to back decisions we'd been sitting on for years, like finally bringing new people onto the team. If you reckon you've got a solid handle on your business, working with Dave will give you a fresh look and a stronger foundation; if you know you need help, he's probably exactly what you're looking for.
