Integrated into our easy and effective model is the 80:20 principle developed by Pareto in 1897, which refers to the underlying pattern that 80% of results or outputs come from just 20% of causes. Our proactive approach allows our clients to share in the success that applying this rule has brought to many businesses such as IBM, Microsoft and Filofax.

The 80:20 Market
The Statistics
According to statistics published by the DTI in August 2005:
At the start of 2004, SME’s accounted for more than half of the business turnover and employment in the UK.
Of the 4.3 million businesses, 99.3% were small, 0.6% medium and 0.1% large.
UK business enterprises employed an estimated 22 million people, 46.8% of which in small businesses.
The estimated combined turnover of the 4.3 million business enterprises in the UK was £2,400 billion with small businesses accounting for 37% of this.
The Reality
While there is no doubt that our market is huge, one of the key benefits of the 80:20 model and one that our franchisees appreciate most, is that you only require a small number of clients. Unlike many consultancy businesses that are transaction or project based, and therefore, need to continually find new clients. We focus on building a long-term relationship with our clients and we know that it works by the number of referrals we receive.
