Overview

BusinessQuests delivers tailored business advice and facilitation exploiting specilized capabilities for privately owned businesses in Europe.

The end objective is to ensure our customers' projects, innovation and aspirations become reality in a way that makes sense for each individual customer. BusinessQuests has a number of core beliefs that shape our service away from traditional consulting. The difference? 

• Consultants provide answers delivered with unwavering conviction, thick (and expensive) reports and "best-practice" solutions.
• BusinessQuests contributes deeply meaningful questions, uses practical experience to help you navigate through them to reach your own answers and facilitates the emergence of tailored solutions.

If you'd like to get a better grasp of our general approach, we suggest Small Giants, Maverick, Scrum and XP from the trenches and Fooled by Randomness.

Business Planning Facilitation

Business Planning Facilitation (BQ-BPF) aims at facilitating the emergence of your perfect business plan, helping you shape it in a rigorous way and making sure the plan is able to evolve as you go about running your business. At BusinessQuests we like dynamic stuff and we don't think a business plan should ever be static for too long even though the foundations stay pretty stable. Business planning is the combination of this stability and market driven agility. 

For a better feel of our approach check The Art of the Start, The Plan as you Go Business Plan and High Tech Start Up.

Work done as part of BQ-BPF services includes:

1. workshops aimed at allowing your business vision and intent to emerge
2. workshops aimed at addressing the various interrelated facets of your plan
3. preparation of business plans
4. financial modelling and business scenarios to allow you to assess the impact of your decisions on distribution, pricing, product versioning, hiring, geographical locations,use of sub-contractors, use of near-shore or off-shore teams
