IOAN EVANS helps business owners to CHOOSE LIFE: to create a business that sets them free to live on their own terms, through a remodelling process of "Business By Design". Since founding Catapult in 2004, he's been injecting capital and driving change to bring massive growth for companies across the board - SMEs to FTSE100s. In these pages, Ioan offers the investor's perspective, and shares some insider secrets that will ramp up your valuation.

RYAN BLANCHE joined Catapult in 2014. After 7 years in business development for a large multi-national, he'd set himself a new challenge: to bring "ordinary" companies extraordinary results. As a consultant and investor, he gets deep inside the transformation process, from strategic change to developing people and the workplace culture. Here, for the very first time, he's sharing the business turnaround process that's brought him huge returns and given owners back control of their lives.
