IDEAS FOR GROWTH
ABOUT US
The get started group is a boutique, privately owned consulting business. We specialise in assisting start-ups and small to medium sized companies in the creative industry. We help them build their businesses, find partners to collaborate with and, 'get started' on their journey to success.
​
We draw on our decades of experience to help your business flourish.

WHAT WE DO
Managing a small business in the creative sector is exciting. You're in charge and, you make all the decision... and there can be a lot of them!
This means, that from time-to-time, you might need a little help.
At the get started group, we provide an expert perspective on your business plans for growth.
​
With our trusted network of partners, we will work with you to deliver what you need. From business consulting to media. From digital and social solutions to public relations… and everything else as required.
​
We don't aim to re-invent the wheel and then charge you for it. Our goal is to understand your issues and then, provide you with realistic, helpful, and actionable advice that will make a real difference.

UNDERSTAND
Context is everything. Whilst we understand the creative industry really well, we don’t yet know your business. How it works, its strength and its weaknesses So, our first step is to 'have a coffee' and get to know the people behind the name - you and your team.
When we've done this, we're better placed to advise you.
