We work with owner-managers of knowledge based, creative and marketing agencies helping them achieve their long term strategic (and personal) goals.
We help owner-managers create viable exit strategies by identifying and improving the things that make them valuable and eliminating the things that don’t.
We do this by creating, in particular:
• stretching but achievable strategic goals
• business plans
• succession plans
• actions for developing new business pipelines
• strategies for improving client/agency relationships
These activities don’t just improve your businesses’ performance and profits but its value as well.
Our clients range from start ups to national groups working in all disciplines. Uniquely our consultants combine commercial and psychological tools (and fun) to help you achieve your long term goals!

This involved psychometric tools, interviews and workshops. As a result Millennium now understands the Board’s strategic and management capabilities, and the agency Board better understands each Director’s preferred management styles and strengths and weaknesses. To help facilitate the workshop we used the full complement of specialist Neuland PinPoint facilitation equipment which is specifically designed to ensure that all members of the team are engaged, breaks down barriers, provides new ways of thinking, gains commitment, saves time and money and is fun!
