Transforming Businesses for Success
Our Mission
Philip Lawson Associates helps support businesses grow with confidence. Through mentoring, business coaching, sales training, and consultancy, we turn two decades of hard-won experience into practical guidance, so you can move past the obstacles holding you back and build something that lasts.
About
Philip Lawson Associates is a business management consultancy built on a straightforward principle: the best advice comes from people who have actually led, sold, and delivered — not just sketched it on a whiteboard.
Our Services
A
Sales Training
Sales training built on proven, real-world results. We've spent years developing successful B2B sales operations, and we bring that practical experience to teams and individuals looking to sell with more confidence and consistency. From sales fundamentals through to advanced solution selling, we help you build an effective sales funnel, understand the marketing that feeds it, and master the sales cycles that turn prospects into long-term clients. Whether you're starting from the basics or sharpening an established team, we meet you where you are.
B
Business Coaching & Mentoring
Business coaching and mentoring grounded in real experience. We've spent years leading organisations and building successful businesses, and we bring that hard-won perspective to the owners, founders, and managers we work with. As an Accredited Business Mentor and Chartered Business Consultant — and through the government-backed Help to Grow scheme — we help you sharpen your thinking, develop as a leader, and make confident decisions about the road ahead. Sometimes the most valuable thing isn't more advice; it's a trusted partner who's been there before.
C
Consultancy
Ad hoc consultancy to support your business where it matters most. With more than fifteen years working in the maritime sector, we bring practical, hands-on insight to the challenges shaping ports today — whether you're developing an energy strategy, navigating decarbonisation, planning for port electrification, or future-proofing your operations for the years ahead. Sometimes you don't need a long engagement; you need the right perspective at the right moment. That's where we can help.
