How GDP works

Begin with the business and a useful next step

Start with what matters to your business, not a technology package. A free private preview helps you assess the relevance before agreeing paid work or a live connection.

Understand the business first

We look carefully before we recommend

Every business has things worth understanding and protecting. We can start with your business name and website, looking at what you already share publicly: your website, business profiles, customer feedback and other relevant sources.

We look for what customers value, what your team does well and anything that might leave people confused. Then we bring you a few useful observations and questions, not a long list of things to buy.

Your knowledge completes the picture. What would you like more of, less of, or to keep just as it is? Any recommendation should fit those priorities, your capacity and the people already helping you. Sometimes the useful answer is to keep doing what works.

A better result does not always mean more business. You might want a better mix of work, sounder margins, fewer unsuitable enquiries, steadier work or more time away. You might simply want to protect something that already works.

More enquiries can also mean more time quoting or extra pressure on your team and the quality of your work. We ask what would be worthwhile for you, rather than assume that more activity is the goal.

What you receive

For an agreed research report, you receive a readable summary of your business's strengths, key factual questions and up to three possibilities worth discussing, or none if the evidence does not support them. Source references, dates and any gaps make it clear what we found and what still needs checking.

If there is a useful role for GDP, we explain it separately, with a small optional next step. Agreeing that a fact is correct does not approve a change, and receiving a report does not commit you to a service.

We agree the research scope and any cost before starting. A full research report is not automatically included in the Free Private Preview. See how we handle evidence and permissions.

  1. Choose the priority

    Discuss the business, customer needs and a practical outcome.

  2. Confirm the evidence and permissions

    Establish facts, permitted source material and who can approve the work.

  3. Review a private example

    Agree a limited preview and consider what is useful or needs changing.

  4. Agree scope, cost and responsibility

    Confirm deliverables, supplier charges, allowed actions and human support.

  5. Test the approved implementation

    Check connections, messages, destinations and fallback arrangements in a bounded pilot.

  6. Review the evidence

    Assess delivered work and observed outcomes without claiming unsupported causation.

Important boundaries. A private example is not a live customer system. Paid work, customer contact, connection and publication each require the relevant agreement.

Ownership, available exports, support and handover arrangements are confirmed for the selected platforms and agreed deliverables.

See a relevant example before deciding what should proceed

Start with review responses, a video concept or a private customer-assistance demonstration. We agree the preview scope and permitted material before preparing it.
