High-Impact Strategies
For Startups
Faster decisions
Aligned execution
Measurable progress
We help you create
immediate and long term value
The shift we help you make
Before
Too many initiatives, no decision rules
“We have a strategy” (but it lives in a deck)
Busy team, weak alignment
After
3–5 strategic priorities that drive yes/no.
Strategy built into your tools, meetings, and metrics.
A 90‑day plan with owners, measures, and a stop‑doing list.
Bloom Business Lab helps founders who are done firefighting and ready to make a few sharp choices about where to play, how to win, and what to stop doing.
❊ How we work
Diagnose
We map your current strategy and operating reality, spot the bottlenecks, and name the decisions that matter.
01
Design
We make the hard calls: where to play, how to win, what to stop, then turn it into a plan your team can run.
02
Deliver
We embed a light operating rhythm (cadences, metrics, rituals) so progress is visible and repeatable.
03
What you’ll get
-
Where to play, how to win, and what you’re stopping. One page your team can remember.
-
Clear direction, outcomes, and the handful of bets that define the year.
-
A disciplined mix of core improvements, new bets, and a small number of bold experiments.
-
The next 90 days: priorities, owners, milestones, and success measures.
-
A simple way to track if you’re executing, and where the plan needs a reset.
-
Cadences, dashboards, decision forums and rituals, mapped to the tools you already use.
Who it is for
Best for
Seed–Series B tech startups with traction but messy growth
Teams who need clear priorities across product, GTM, and hiring
Founders who want decision rules, not more opinions
Teams ready to move in 30–90 days
Not for
“Just advice” with no owner, no follow‑through
Teams who can’t share basic context (numbers, customer reality, constraints)
Anyone looking for a quick deck that won’t change how the company runs

Bloom uses one core strategy framework and adapts it to where you are now: from newly funded to scaling fast.
Strategy Check
A fast, structured assessment that reveals what’s unclear, what’s missing, and what to fix first.
Best for: Founders who feel “busy but not aligned” and need clarity before committing to a bigger plan.
What we do: Diagnose strategy clarity, market reality, focus, and execution readiness - Identify the one bottleneck holding the business back - Recommend the shortest path forward (Sprint or Reset).
What you get: Health Snapshot (1 page): what’s working / what’s not / what to prioritise - Focus Score (simple scores + notes): where clarity breaks down - Next Best Move (1 page): the recommended engagement + why.
Success looks like: You can explain your strategy in 30 seconds - The team agrees on the #1 priority and what’s not happening right now.
Strategy Sprint
A high-intensity build that turns a good direction into a clear strategy and a 90-day plan.
Best for: Founders with momentum who need focus, choices, and a plan the team can run.
What we do: Clarify the Big Idea (what we’re building towards) - Make the hard choices (where to play / how to win / what we won’t do) - Turn it into a 90-day plan with measurable outcomes.
What you get: Strategy One-Pager: Big Idea + choices + trade-offs + measures - 90-Day Plan: priorities, owners, milestones, and weekly rhythm - Scorecard: 5–7 metrics that tell the truth (monthly review).
Success looks like: The strategy is clear enough to repeat, sharp enough to guide decisions - The next 90 days are obvious, owned, and measurable.
Strategy Reset
A focused rescue for strategies that aren’t working, realigns the business around a new, credible path.
Best for: When growth has stalled, priorities are chaotic, or the plan no longer fits reality.
What we do: Identify what broke (assumptions, positioning, execution system, or market shift) - Remove noise: kill or pause low-value initiatives - Rebuild the strategy around the most credible growth route.
What you get: Reset Narrative: what changed, what we’re doing now, why it will work - Recovery Portfolio: stop / start / double-down decisions - Turnaround Plan: 30–60–90 day stabilise and rebuild roadmap.
Success looks like: A realistic strategy that fits the market and the team capacity - A clean plan that stops the bleeding and restores momentum.
