01 · Where you stand after an hour
After an hour you know
what you are going to do
This call used to be called the Your Way call. Same hour, same price.
You hang up with an answer to the question that has been coming back for months. And you know what you are going to do.
You tell us where you stand. We ask the questions you no longer ask yourself, because you are too close to it. At the end you know what you are going to do.
Usually it turns out to be something you can do yourself, and then we simply say so.
Different roads, on purpose.

The scan by
Inge van Kemenade
If your question is about numbers, contracts or an exit plan, you speak to Inge. She built up Topshelf and Sportsworld and now leads the fashion brand Circle of Gentlemen.
You fill in a scan beforehand. The conversation that follows is about financing, about your contracts, and about what needs to be in place before you sit down with a bank or an investor.
Afterwards there is a list of what has to happen first.
