Rokstrat Founder · £500K to £5M

You've built something most people never will. Now make it worth everything you've put in.

The fastest-growing and most valuable businesses in the world have peer advisory groups and investor-grade value creation teams behind them. Most founders are building without either. Rokstrat brings both, for the first time.

If This Sounds Familiar

The feelings that brought you here.

"The world is changing faster than ever and I'm not sure my business is ready for what's coming. Other founders seem to be pulling ahead and I can't see exactly how - or what I need to do to get there first."
"I'm figuring this out alone. My team looks to me for answers. My friends don't get it. I want people around me at the same level who understand the weight of what I'm carrying and who can actually help me work through the biggest decisions."
"I've built something good but I know it should be further along than this. It's not delivering the financial freedom or the time it was supposed to. And I'm not entirely sure what's holding it back."
"I'm earning well but I'm not building real wealth. The business feels more like a well-paid job than a valuable asset. If I stopped, the income stops too."
"I don't want to look back in five years and realise I played it too small. Everything is moving so fast right now. I want to be ahead of it, not spending the next few years catching up."
"I want to know what the right moves are, in the right order - and I want people around me who are navigating the same challenges and won't let me hide from the hard questions."
Why This Matters Now

Most businesses are operating at a fraction of their potential. AI is making that gap bigger, faster.

The pace of change has never been higher. AI is rewriting entire industries faster than most founders can track. The businesses that are winning are compounding every advantage: better positioning, sharper offers, faster execution, more visibility. And the businesses without the support structure to make those moves are falling behind, often without realising it until the gap is hard to close.

At the same time, founders are more isolated than ever. Teams get leaner as AI handles more. There are fewer people around you who truly understand the weight of the decisions you're carrying. There's no tool that shows you what others at your level are actually doing. The biggest opportunities in your business are almost always invisible to the person running it from the inside.

You've put everything into building this. The founders who look back in five years and feel proud of what they did in this window are the ones who had the right support around them right now. People who could see what they couldn't. A plan built on the methodology that the best-backed companies have always used. The momentum to keep moving when everything else is accelerating. That's what's available to you here.

What You Get

Your private peer advisory board, working to your plan.

The rigour of investor-grade value creation planning and the support of your own genuine peer advisory board, combined for the first time. Your Blueprint is the golden thread that runs through everything, giving you certainty on what to do next. The room gives you the people to support you through it.

01

The Deep Scan

Four weeks. Your business fully assessed across 10 dimensions. Interviews with you and your key people. It reveals what you can't see from inside the business: where the biggest opportunities are, what's holding you back most, and the highest-leverage moves available to you right now. Every asset mapped. Everything rated by impact and urgency.

02

The Blueprint

Your personalised 36-month Value Acceleration Blueprint, built from the Deep Scan findings. The same investor-grade value creation methodology used by private equity and venture capital-backed companies, the playbooks most founders never get access to. Exactly what to do, in what order, to create the most value from what you've built. Sequenced month by month. Built around what you want from your business and your life. A living plan that adapts as things evolve.

03

The Room

Your private peer advisory board: up to 10 other founders, all working from their own Blueprints and committed to helping each other work through the biggest decisions and challenges of this era. Monthly sessions chaired by Ryan. Every session opens with The Ledger, the accountability record of what each member committed to last time and whether it happened. The room doesn't just grow your business. It grows you as a founder.

04

The Rhythm

The board doesn't stop between sessions. Direct coaching from Ryan when you need it. A direct channel to the founders in your board for ongoing support. Monthly Collective Sessions across all Rokstrat members, what founders and CEOs in the programme are deploying right now, what's emerging in AI, robotics, and automation, and what it means for your business. And Rok, your personalised AI advisory board, trained on your Deep Scan, your Blueprint, and your numbers across all 10 APEX dimensions. Your Rok is yours alone. Available around the clock.

Two Advisory Boards. One Mission.

In the room

You're sitting on a decision about your first senior hire. Too expensive to get wrong. Two founders in the room have faced the exact same crossroads. In forty minutes the fog clears - not because anyone has the answer, but because people who've been there tell the truth about what they did and what they'd do differently.

With Rok

It's 11pm. You've got a meeting tomorrow with a client who represents 40% of revenue but consumes 70% of the team's energy. You open Pulse - the metrics and iteration advisor - and walk through the numbers against your Blueprint. By midnight you have a clear position. You walk into the meeting knowing exactly what you're going to say.

Between sessions

A founder spots a competitor making a move that could eat into their market. They flag it in the board channel that afternoon. Three founders have relevant experience. Ryan connects two of them directly. The response strategy is decided before the next session ever arrives.

How It Works in Practice

From where you are today to a highly valuable asset.

Step 1: The Deep Scan (Weeks 1 to 4)

Four weeks working together. Extended interviews with you about your vision, your ambitions, what you want from your business and your life. Interviews with key team members. Full financial analysis. Customer data review. Operational assessment. Market and positioning analysis. Every asset your business has, mapped and assessed. Everything evaluated across the 10 dimensions of the APEX Value Acceleration Framework, rated by impact and urgency. It reveals what you can't see from inside the business.

Step 2: The Blueprint (Your 36-Month Value Acceleration Plan)

From the Deep Scan comes your Blueprint. Built on the same investor-grade value creation methodology used by private equity and venture capital-backed companies, the playbooks most founders never get access to. It maps the 5 to 10 highest-leverage moves available to you, sequenced month by month, based on exactly where your business stands and what you want from it and your life. Not a long list of generic recommendations. A clear, prioritised plan with expected impact at each stage. A living document that adapts as things evolve.

Step 3: The Room

You join a private peer advisory board of up to 10 other founders, all working from their own Blueprints. Everyone knows each other's businesses and biggest challenges. Monthly sessions chaired by Ryan. Before each session, every founder brings their biggest win of the month, how they fared against The Ledger, their biggest current challenge, and the one thing they want the room to help them work through. Ryan knows where everyone stands because he knows their business and their plan, so everyone arrives prepared. The Ledger opens every session: what you committed to last time, and whether it happened. Then the deep work. You leave with clarity, a decision made, and a commitment on record.

Step 4: The Rhythm (Continuous)

The board doesn't stop between sessions. Between meetings, every member has direct coaching from Ryan when they need it, a direct channel to the other founders in their board for peer support, and Rok, their personalised AI advisory board trained on their own Deep Scan, Blueprint, and the APEX Value Acceleration Framework, available 24/7. Your Rok is yours alone: no other member has access to your data or your Rok. Monthly Collective Sessions across all Rokstrat members cover the most pressing topics in the market right now. You're always moving forward against the plan.

What It Feels Like

People who've got your back.

Ten other founders and Ryan. People who know where your business stands, what you're working on, and what your biggest challenge is right now. They celebrate your wins because they understand exactly what it took. They challenge you because they've committed to the same standard. They share what's working in their own businesses because your success makes the room stronger.

And underneath it all, your Blueprint: the personalised plan built on investor-grade value creation methodology, giving you certainty on what to do next even as things change around you. New challenges come up. New opportunities land on you. You work through them with people who've got your back, and you keep moving forward on an accelerating path rather than reacting to whatever's loudest.

This isn't networking. This isn't a community bolted onto a course. This is your own private peer advisory board, and you're not building the most important thing you'll ever build alone.

Certain. Supported. Not alone.

The Transformation

From founder running a business to founder leading a highly valuable asset.

Before

Doing it alone. Making the biggest decisions without people at the same level to work through them with. Business depends on you. Revenue comes in but real wealth doesn't build. Feeling left behind as the world accelerates. Not sure what the right moves are or in what order.

After

Certain and supported. A clear plan, month by month, built on investor-grade value creation thinking. Business becoming a highly valuable asset. Real wealth building alongside the revenue. Becoming the go-to authority in your space. Surrounded by founders at the same level who've got your back, supported by Ryan and Rok every step of the way.

Common Questions

Frequently asked.

How is this different from coaching or consultancy?
Most coaching programmes apply the same generic framework to everyone, regardless of where your business actually is. Most consultants hand you a report and walk away. Rokstrat starts with a full assessment of your specific business and builds a personalised Value Acceleration Blueprint from what it finds, built on investor-grade value creation methodology that most founders never get access to outside of private equity. You then have ongoing support, from Ryan, from your peer advisory board, and from Rok, to actually execute against it month by month. The combination of a personalised plan and people genuinely committed to helping you deliver it is what makes it fundamentally different.
How is this different from other peer groups?
Most peer groups give you the room but no personalised plan as the backbone and no assessment depth underneath. The options available to founders today were built for a slower, simpler time. Rokstrat was built for this one. Every member has been fully assessed before they enter the room, and every member has their own 36-month Value Acceleration Blueprint. Sessions are built around helping each other make progress against a real plan, working through the decisions and challenges in front of you right now. The Ledger opens every session and holds every member accountable to what they committed to last time. It's a working board, not a talking one.
What's the time commitment?
The Deep Scan takes four weeks and requires meaningful input from you: extended interviews, financial information, and access to key data. That investment is what makes the Blueprint genuinely specific to your business. After that, monthly sessions run for approximately three hours, plus the monthly Collective Session. Between sessions, the commitment is yours to shape: direct coaching from Ryan, peer support from your board, and Rok available 24/7.
Which tier is right for me: Rokstrat Founder or Rokstrat CEO?
Rokstrat Founder is for businesses doing £500K to £5M. Rokstrat CEO is for businesses doing £5M to £20M+, where the decisions are more complex: M&A, exit positioning, capital allocation, larger leadership teams. If you're between £3M and £7M, register your interest and we'll have a conversation about which room is the best fit.
What happens if I want to leave?
Rokstrat is a monthly rolling membership after your initial commitment. You keep your Deep Scan and your Blueprint regardless. We'd rather have founders who are fully committed to getting the most out of this, so if it's not right, we'll part well.
