    Founder and DNAsix Managing Director David Taylor talking about the three key challenges facing both SMEs and enterprise support organisations

  • A new age of business advice

    Enterprise support, like any other area of business, is having to change .... fundamentally! Gone are the days of simply focusing on a client's P&L, target customers and USPs. Today's business advisers now also need know a wide array of business processes - from understanding algorithms and data usage through to creating dynamic content and managing brand ambassadors.

    Making life simpler

    With all these extra complications, it is vital that a business adviser can quickly diagnose where the issues lie with their client, identify practical and cost effective solutions then make sure these are implemented.

  • How can DNAsix help?

    We have a range of solutions to meet the needs of different organisations:

    1. Advisor licence

    Designed for business coaches, advisors or enterprise support organisations whose goal it is to help SMEs grow or adapt to the changing marketplace.

     

    In addition, it can provide extra services to accountancy or bookkeeping practices.

     

    DNAsix provides you with all the materials and expert training to ensure you can upskill and educate businesses in your area through a mixture of face-to-face and e-learning, diagnostics, assessments and modules.

     

    • Our extensive training programmes will equip you or your team with everything you will need to get clients started with the high level of support required in today’s fast-changing business landscape.
    • We help you to gain and sustain clients – quickly diagnosing where the pain points lie within your client's life - be they personal, financial, structural or marketing-based.
    • We have a massive range of resources available so you can plug any knowledge gaps. Plus, we can help navigate your clients to further support using our network of specialists.
    • Our platform allows you to monitor the progress of your clients online, prepare reports and to benchmark performance against KPIs or delivery targets.
    • DNAsix includes a CRM enabling you to keep track of your clients, while our calendar booking system takes the pain out of arranging 121s and mentoring sessions.
    • Finally, using our assessments, you can ensure your client is making the necessary progress to reach their goals.
    For those running their own consultancy business, a DNAsix licence can even take the pain out of invoicing your clients, as the platform includes Stripe billing. This also comes in handy for those enterprise support organisations who wish to charge their clients or move to a membership scheme.

    2. DNAsix Franchise

    Do you have a background in marketing, sales, consultancy, accountancy and are looking to set up your own business?

     

    Perhaps you are newly retired and are looking for a fresh challenge. If so, a DNAsix franchise could provide you with the perfect opportunity.

     

    We offer:

    • 5-year renewable Licence Fee
    • A comprehensive training programme
    • Use of the innovative DNAsix e-learning platform complete with assessments, business tools, a CRM system, marketing collateral including videos, exclusive infographics and resources
    • Comprehensive Operations Manual
    • Thousands of pounds worth of high quality, start-up training
    • A range of high quality affiliates
    • Regular on-going mentoring and support
    • The opportunity to become part of an award-winning dynamic, forward-thinking consultancy business with global aspirations

    3. Small and medium sized enterprises or charities

    If you are an ambitious organisation looking to take your business to the next level, a company which wants to stay ahead of the competition or you are just keen to futureproof your business to compete in today’s uncertain world then DNAsix includes everything you will need to make the necessary changes to achieve your goals.

     

    1. We focus first on what you want to do with your life and where your business fits into this. Too often business owners lose track of what they're trying to achieve personally, at a massive cost to their health and relationships.
    2. Next comes a financial plan, which should form the cornerstone of any plans you have for your business. What do you need to pay yourself, what turnover will you need to achieve this, what should your pricing strategy be and how much do you need to set aside for tax?
    3. Your business plan should then be the strategy you put into place to achieve these personal and financial goals. This includes a range of factors including target audiences, channels to market, resources, network of contacts, elevator pitch and long term goals.
    4. Marketing has now come so much more complicated in today's multi-channel, multi-generational world. It is vital that you have a proper strategy which properly aligns with your business plan.
    5. A key element within marketing is now content. What type do you create, how often, where should it be used and where do you get your ideas from? We can help you with all of these.
    6. Then we get data. This is the basis of all modern organisations. Where does your data sit, what do you do with it, how can get the most out of it, how secure is it and can you interpret the data around you?

    Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose 
    January 18, 2023
    The French have a phrase - plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose. Literally translated it means ‘the more things change, the more they stay the same’. As we reach the end of Web 2.0, I believe we are witnessing a shift back to something approximating the pre Web 1.0 age. Like all revolutions...
