Michael Kiernan · Independent Business Adviser
Start with the business, not the website.
I help business owners understand what's really going on, identify what actually needs attention and decide what makes sense to do next — before they spend money solving the wrong problem.
30+ years in business. 15+ years online.
I've spent more than three decades building businesses, developing projects and working across business, management, hospitality and music — with around fifteen years also spent online, across websites, search, e-commerce and digital strategy. That breadth is what sits behind the judgement.

You're starting something and want to get the foundations right.
Something in the business isn't working as well as it should, but you're not sure where the real problem is.
The business has stalled, outgrown the way it currently works, or you're considering a significant change.
You're facing an important decision and want an experienced, independent view before deciding what to do next.
Nothing complicated.
Understand → Investigate → Recommend → Implement where appropriate
Sometimes clear advice is the whole job. Where action is needed, the people already inside or working with the business will usually be best placed to carry it out. I can stay involved as an adviser, work alongside them where useful, or become more practically involved when there is a genuine reason to do so.

If any of this sounds familiar.
A short email is enough to start. Tell me a little about the business and what's on your mind, and I'll give you an honest view on whether I can help — I take on a small number of clients, so if I'm not the right person, I'll say so.
