About Profit Impact

Profit Impact is creating the blueprint for small and medium-sized businesses to operate and grow sustainably. As we develop and grow with our customers, we can identify opportunities that enable companies to change their models over time.

We act as Lead Sustainability Advisor for the ACCA, helping to drive sustainable change for SMEs.

We are helping to shape the future of impact: Our founder has joined King’s College London as Expert in Residence for Impact for new ventures.

Most of us now know the why; the question is how.

Business owners face a myriad of challenges, complexities, and actions daily. You need support and clear guidance from people who understand both the commercial drivers within business and sustainable practices.

The number one challenge organisations face is not a lack of interest in a brighter future. It’s a lack of knowledge, support, and momentum.

Profit Impact is here to bridge this gap. We have worked in business for many years, often in finance leadership roles, and we understand the realities you will face when leading your business.

We’re practical, pragmatic, and 100% in this with you.

We donate 20% of EBIT (Earnings Before Interest and Taxes), or 3% of total revenue, whichever amount is higher, to Tomorrow's Company. These funds are invested in inspiring and nurturing the next generation of entrepreneurs and business leaders.
