About David Keir

I am a business coach and entrepreneur and have built values driven companies to scale, raised funds from major investors and created wealth for shareholders. I founded Entrepreneur Purpose to help values and team focussed entrepreneurs scale and grow their businesses. I use Metronomics and other best practice tools to help leaders and their teams exceed their own expectations and find personal fulfilment. I achieve great results for my clients: - One client launched a comprehensive product range and completed a $1.5m fundraising soon after we started workign together. - I identified significant strategy and expense opportunities in the initial session with another client in the retail space. - For several clients we achieve strategic clarity that the whole team strongly backed which unified the company around its goals. Founders and leaders frequently ask how we were able to achieve this and particularly how they can step back from the day-to-day problem solving and work on what really matters to their business. They want to lead their teams with clarity and also have a more balanced life. Some of their key concerns are: - How to make their leadership teams more cohesive- How to clarity of strategy and execution across the business- How to attract and retain A-Players to their team- How to ensure the values and purpose the company was founded on are shared across business. Metronomics is a comprehensive business growth system that leverages the work of numerous leading business thinkers, including Jim Collins. Michael Porter, Patrick Lencioni, Steven R Covey, Alex Osterwalder, Brenee Brown, Liz Wiseman and many others. The beauty of the system is that each of these writers can easily be built into the framework. The clients that I work with love the Metronomics system and can see the results in their business growth, the cohesiveness and quality of their teams and the satisfaction they get from working on their business together. As I built a major restaurant company in China, the obstacles to growth were significant. Finding locations, managing a growing team, franchisees and seeking growth capital. We raised over $100m from major investors and ultimately scaled to become one of the major chains operating in China.

We put in place a strategy for growth using our best practice systems and tools. As I built Domino's Pizza in China, the obstacles to growth were significant. Finding locations, managing a growing team, franchisees and seeking growth capital. We raised over $100m from major investors and ultimately scaled to become one of the major chains operating in China. I learned personal and business purpose gives the belief and resilience to overcome challenging situations through to success. We took advantage of the strong franchise systems we were part of to build a purpose driven yet systemized business. Our approach combines this experience with best practice tools: i. To find purpose, vision and values. ii. Build a strategy that leverages core competencies. iii. Stay accountable to the plan, systemize your business so that it is ready to scale. iv. Achieve a great business sale, or raise funds for further growth. We use best practice tools at each stage of the journey, enabling entrepreneurs to see opportunities and options that they may otherwise have missed.
