"It's not a marketing problem — it's a friction across the value chain problem"

Most established businesses don’t have a marketing problem, they have friction across the whole value chain. That could be lead flow, conversion, delivery bottlenecks as well as reporting. AI is not the silver bullet, our philosophy is to use automation/AI only where it adds leverage.

Introducing a Hybrid Approach for the Modern Era.

At Hackett & Partners, we do not believe in replacing humans. We believe in empowering them.

We advise on key AI Transformation Systems that automate the low-value, and repetitive tasks (scheduling, follow-up, data entry etc) so your team can focus on the high-value tasks.

Unlike digital agencies run by technicians who have never sat in a boardroom, Hackett & Partners is led by seasoned business leadership.

MBA-Backed Strategy: We understand P&L, margins, and operational efficiency

Battle-Tested: Over 30 years of commercial experience.

Cutting-Edge Execution: We are certified experts in AI automation and CRM infrastructure.

Clients' Voices

Testimonials from our satisfied clients.

"Before working with Hackett & Partners our deal flow was lumpy and we were relying on luck and word of mouth. Mark helped us put in a proper investor pipeline, tighten our numbers and stop wasting time on the wrong enquiries. We’re now closing more of the right deals, faster, and I can clearly see where the next 3–6 months of revenue is coming from."

"Mark didn’t give us a pretty report – he rolled up his sleeves and rebuilt how we generate and manage business. Within three months our sales pipeline was organised, our team knew exactly what to focus on each week, and monthly revenue was up over 30%. It’s the first time in years I’ve felt in control of the business rather than the other way round."

"I came to Mark because I was drowning in day-to-day tasks and knew I was leaving money on the table. He mapped out where we were leaking leads, installed an AI-driven system to catch and follow up every enquiry, and simplified our whole process. The result is more bookings, higher average spend per client and a lot less stress for me and the team."

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Hackett & Partners actually do?

Hackett & Partners helps business owners and investors grow profits, streamline operations and make better decisions. We combine real-world commercial experience with strategic advice and practical implementation of AI, rather than vague “consulting” that sits on a shelf.

Who do you typically work with?

We work with established businesses (typically teams of 5+ and £500k + turnover. who want measurable performance improvements.

How do we get started?

The first step is a review of your business which comprises of an initial call to understand your processes, current challenges and any issues you are facing, We will then do some behind the scenes research, looking at your industry and your competitors. From there, we’ll outline a clear plan of action, timescales and any perceived costs. If you’re happy and want to move forward with us, we move straight into implementation – not months more of analysis.

What makes Hackett & Partners different from other advisers or consultants?

We’ve actually built and run businesses ourselves, so our advice is grounded in reality. We focus on results, systems and execution, not buzzwords. You’ll get plain-English guidance, honest feedback and practical support to implement changes – not just a report.

How do you charge for your services?

It depends on the type of engagement. Some projects are fixed-fee with a clear scope; others are monthly retainers where we work alongside you over a period of time as your AI partner. Before you commit to anything, you’ll know exactly what’s included and what it will cost.

Do you work remotely or on-site?

Both. Many projects can be delivered remotely via calls and online collaboration, which keeps things efficient. Where it adds value – for example, strategy days or on-site reviews – we’re happy to visit your business or location by arrangement.

How long does it take to see results?

That depends on your starting point and the scope of work, but most clients start to see tangible improvements within the first 30 days – whether that’s better lead flow, tighter systems, clearer numbers or more profitable deals.

Can you help with AI implementation, or is it just advice?

We prefer to be involved in implementation, not just advice. That can include setting up systems, helping build processes, working with your team, or overseeing key projects so that agreed changes actually happen.

Is there a minimum commitment?

For most ongoing engagements, we recommend an initial commitment of at least three months. That gives enough time to diagnose properly, implement changes and start seeing outcomes. One-off strategy sessions or reviews can be arranged separately if needed.

How do I know if Hackett & Partners is a good fit for me?

If you want someone to tell you what you want to hear, we’re not the right choice! If, however, you want clear thinking, honest feedback and a partner who will challenge you and help you execute, then we’re likely a good fit. The best way to find out is to book an initial conversation and talk openly about where you are and where you want to be.
