Business Strategy Consulting

We don’t do vision boards. We do numbers with a plan behind them.

Northfield & Rowe works with owner-operators who’ve outgrown gut instinct but haven’t got a strategy team. We find the one decision that’s actually holding you back, then build the 90-day plan to fix it.

What We Do

Three ways we get you unstuck.

01

Strategy Diagnostic

A two-week deep dive into where the business is actually losing time, margin, or focus — not where you think it is.

02

90-Day Growth Plan

A single, sequenced plan built around the one bottleneck that matters most right now, with owners assigned to every line.

03

Quarterly Advisory

Ongoing sessions to keep the plan honest as the business changes — not a report nobody reads.

For Business Owners

If you’re steering by feel, we can help.

01

Operators, not theorists — We’ve run P&Ls, missed forecasts, and fixed the fallout ourselves.

02

In the room — We sit in your actual meetings before we suggest a single change.

03

Named owners — Every line of the plan has a name on it, or it doesn’t leave the room.

How It Works

Short, because the first two weeks should find the real problem.

STEP 1

Diagnose

Two weeks inside the business — meetings, numbers, and the conversations nobody else gets invited to.

STEP 2

Plan

One sequenced 90-day plan around the bottleneck that matters most, with an owner on every line.

STEP 3

Run it

Your team runs the plan on a Monday morning, not a consultant from the sidelines.

STEP 4

Stay honest

Quarterly check-ins to keep the plan alive as the business changes underneath it.

They didn’t just hand us a deck. They sat in our Monday meetings until the plan actually stuck.

Let’s find the bottleneck.

One conversation is usually enough to tell you whether we’re the right fit. No deck, no pitch — just a straight look at what’s actually going on.
