Our purpose as thexton armstrong business mentors 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. As the business grows, the realities set in – not every business owner is born an entrepreneur. 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 seeking stronger results, the Business Acceleration Plan provides a clear, proven path to profitable, sustainable growth.
Built on our Profit Leakage Analysis, it identifies hidden opportunities and converts them into measurable performance gains, stronger accountability, and increased long-term value.
For franchise partners, it forms the backbone of a scalable advisory practice that delivers tangible results for SMEs while building trusted, recurring client relationships.
Even the most capable business owners can become caught in the day-to-day. The Business Mentoring Plan provides the clarity and structure owners need to step back and lead with strategy, purpose, and vision.
Through a trusted mentoring relationship, thexton armstrong mentors act as both sounding board and catalyst — strengthening leadership, sharpening systems, and building resilient, future-ready businesses.
For franchise partners, it creates lasting impact: a proven way to deliver meaningful client value.
Exiting a business is one of the most defining — and often emotional — moments in an owner’s journey. The Business Exit Plan provides the clarity and structure owners need to navigate this transition with confidence.
Through expert guidance, it helps protect the value built over time, prepares the business for succession or sale, and supports owners as they move into their next chapter.
For franchise partners, it delivers lasting impact: enabling you to support clients from growth through to exit while strengthening trusted relationships.
Across every market, SMEs are not losing profit through lack of effort — but because owners are consumed by the day-to-day. Working long hours in the business leaves little bandwidth to step back, analyse performance, and make deliberate strategic decisions.
This is where profit leakage occurs. Value is already being created, but it quietly slips away through overlooked inefficiencies, reactive decisions, and a lack of structured oversight — not because owners don’t care, but because they rarely have the time or perspective to see what’s really happening inside their business.
For our franchise partners, this creates a compelling opportunity: a proven framework that enables your network to help business owners step back, regain control, and systematically recover hidden profit — while strengthening enterprise value and long-term resilience.
Now imagine this impact at scale, across SMEs in your region. That is the opportunity 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 United Kingdom — empowering SME owners and transforming local business communities.
We offer master franchise opportunities in selected markets. 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.
