Entrepreneurship is a whirlwind ride that’s full of challenges — both expected and unexpected.
Our purpose is to help SME business owners to become more professional entrepreneurs so that their businesses become more resilient, more profitable and being a business owner more rewarding and enjoyable.
Every business begins with a spark — a skill, an idea, a passion to build something meaningful. But as the business grows, the realities set in. Not every business owner is born an entrepreneur, and what starts as an exciting vision can quickly become a demanding juggle of cashflow, people, customers, and decisions that feel far removed from the original passion.
That’s where we come in.
We walk alongside business owners through every stage of their journey — from those early pioneering steps to acceleration and growth, into a smooth operational flow, and ultimately toward a confident, well-prepared exit.
Because with the right support, every business owner can grow into the entrepreneur their business needs.
Our network of mentors supports SME owners at the moments that matter most — the moments that define their journey.
when the day-to-day pressures begin to cloud the passion that first inspired them, and clarity, structure and a steady guiding hand make all the difference
as they work to stabilise operations, strengthen financial performance, build confident leadership, and open the door to new opportunities
when it’s time to prepare both the business and the owner for a successful exit — creating a smooth, considered transition and a future shaped by choice, not chance
We believe every business owner has the potential to succeed with the right help and mindset.
Time and again, we’ve seen entrepreneurs rediscover their confidence, regain momentum, and move their business forward with renewed purpose.
Because the entrepreneurial journey wasn’t meant to be travelled alone — and with the right support, even the toughest chapters can become turning points.
Whether a business is thriving or striving for stronger results, the Business Acceleration Plan gives owners a clear, proven path to profitable and sustainable growth.
Grounded in the insights of our Profit Leakage Analysis, it uncovers hidden potential and turns it into measurable progress — strengthening performance, building accountability, and increasing long-term enterprise value.
For our franchise partners, it becomes the engine of a scalable consulting practice: a structured, repeatable process that delivers real results for SMEs while creating ongoing, trusted advisory relationships and recurring revenue.
Even the most capable entrepreneurs can feel overwhelmed or trapped in the day-to-day. The Business Mentoring Plan gives business owners the clarity and structure they need to step back from the noise and lead with strategy, purpose, and vision.
Through a trusted mentoring relationship, thexton armstrong mentors become both a sounding board and a catalyst for continuous improvement — strengthening leadership, refining systems, and building resilient, future-ready businesses.
For our franchise partners, this plan offers a proven way to create lasting impact: delivering meaningful value to clients while developing a network of professional mentors who elevate and transform their local SME communities.
Exiting a business is one of the most significant — and often emotional — moments in an entrepreneur’s journey. Most owners experience it only once, and many are unsure how to navigate such a defining transition.
The Business Exit Plan brings clarity, structure, and expert guidance to this pivotal stage — helping owners protect the value they’ve created, prepare their business for succession or sale, and step confidently into their next chapter.
For our franchise partners, this phase offers a powerful opportunity to make lasting impact: supporting SMEs from growth through to a successful exit, and building trusted relationships that elevate the reputation and long-term success of your national thexton armstrong network.
Our research shows that SMEs around the world are unknowingly losing a substantial share of their profits — not because they aren’t working hard, but because hidden inefficiencies quietly drain value from the business.
Profit Leakage is the money a business is already earning, but not keeping. It slips away through unclear processes, missed opportunities, and a lack of strategic oversight — often without the owner ever noticing.
For our franchise partners, this creates a powerful opportunity: helping business owners uncover and recover these hidden profits while strengthening the long-term value and resilience of their companies.
Now imagine this impact at scale — across hundreds of SMEs in your region.
That is the potential you unlock when you lead thexton armstrong in your market.
We let our work speak for itself—through the business owners we’ve helped:
“We needed an outside perspective — someone who could truly understand our business from within. The thexton armstrong mentor blended in seamlessly, like a chameleon — quickly becoming part of our team and helping us see what we couldn’t see ourselves.”
“I kept redefining our business direction while preparing for succession. There were strategic questions I couldn’t answer alone — I needed an experienced sounding board.
That’s when I reached out to thexton armstrong.”
“In the day-to-day hustle, we lost perspective. Our thexton armstrong mentor held up a mirror and helped us see clearly again.”
“My advice to other business owners? Be open to change. A fresh pair of eyes can reveal opportunities you didn’t even know existed.”
We invite driven business professionals to join us as franchise partners across the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, and the UK — empowering SME owners and transforming local business communities.
In selected markets, we also offer Master Franchise opportunities. As a Master Franchise Partner, you lead your own exclusive region: recruiting, supporting, and developing a team of independent franchise partners while making a meaningful impact on the SMEs that depend on you.
It’s a chance to build a scalable business, shape a thriving regional network, and play a vital role in strengthening the SME sector.
