For programme partners
Programme support is usually timed by the calendar, not by need, because nobody can see where each company’s selling is actually breaking. The Closing Score changes that: an 8-minute diagnostic, white-labelled for your programme, that shows where every company is stuck, why, and which support will move it.
Portfolio wide visibility. Evidence based routing. Your brand on the front.
Who we work with
1
Prove revenue traction earlier and route the right founders to the right help.
2
Give members support they can feel, and see which ones need it.
3
Turn support budgets into evidenced outcomes, jobs and GVA.
Workshops and programmes land when they’re scheduled, not when a company needs them. The company that needed qualification help in March gets a pricing webinar in June.
Without a common way to see where each company is stuck, generic help goes to specific problems. Good founders get the same content as everyone else.
Attendance and event counts don’t tell a board whether companies can now sell. Budget gets harder to defend every year.
Each company answers plain-English questions about how their selling actually runs, about 8 minutes, no deal data, no system access. The score does the rest.
Where their growth is stuck, which KPI is under pressure, what to fix first, and three actions. Genuinely useful on its own, which is why founders complete it.
Every company banded Red, Amber or Green, the primary problem named in plain English, and a recommended route, with human override where judgement should win.
Portfolio heatmaps by stage and sector, where the red spots cluster, and evidence for where to put time and budget next.
The portfolio view. Illustrative, with sample data.
We run this today for Climb, as the Climb Growth Score. Same engine, their brand, their programme, their founders.
Work out what to fix or build first.
Build repeatability into how each company sells.
Hard-wire it into CRM, deal inspection and the week.
Every route below is one of these three phases, matched to what the score found.
Companies in the green get self-serve guides and tools. No cost, no noise, and they stay on your radar.

Scoped on the Partner Call.
Live, operator-led cohorts: one for founders still closing every deal themselves, one for founders making their first sales hires. Runs across a cohort at once.
See the bootcamps →A 40-day sprint that turns a trade mission or showcase into qualified pipeline, with a partner dashboard across the cohort.
Five days inside one company to work out what to fix or build first, ending in a blueprint and a 90-day plan.
See 5 Days to Scale →Design, Enable and Run installed until the new way of selling holds in live deals and the forecast.
See how we work →GamePlan is an event-to-pipeline sprint. It turns a trade mission, conference or portfolio showcase into inspectable, sales-qualified pipeline, instead of a stack of business cards that goes cold the week after. You can run it across a whole cohort at once.
Targets, research and a pitch card per founder.
A three-line routine and one shared capture sheet.
A meeting-first cadence, days 1 to 14.
Weekly qualified-lead reviews and an ROI report.
A cohort dashboard rolls up event impact across the portfolio: leads, meetings, qualified opportunities, pipeline and won value, one view per company.
Live, operator-led cohorts plus a 30-day sprint so the habits hold after the room empties. Run either across a cohort at once; the score tells you which founders need which.
“Shifted our mindset in one day.”

Marketing Manager, Sero
“A no-brainer for non-sales founders. It changed how I think and how I sell.”

Founder & CEO, Ontime
6Before you book
A white-labelled score that reads the whole portfolio in minutes, a routing view that points each company to the right support, and portfolio reporting you can take to your own stakeholders, plus the delivery to back it: 121s, Bootcamps, GamePlan, 5 Days to Scale and the full install.
It starts with a Partner Call to map the portfolio and how value is shared. From there we pilot the score across one cohort or portfolio slice plus one routed intervention, then scale across the ladder with a joint case study. The mechanics are agreed up front so it’s clean for everyone.
Programme support works best for founders and scale-ups with a product or service they can sell, who need clearer commercial priorities, stronger qualification habits, better event follow-up, more practical GTM planning or more confidence in how to turn growth activity into qualified pipeline. Stage and sector matter less than commercial readiness to act.
