We have a practical and hands-on approach - we don’t just advise, we help our clients do it, providing the benefits of our experience to complement theirs.

We work with our clients throughout their growth journey.

When that is the ambition, we also help them to sell their businesses.

'The Ancora Team provided invaluable support to SDDirect during our phase of sustained growth. Their services to us included coaching and mentoring of our leaders – helping them grow, develop, and face the challenges that comes with growth. They also helped us set-up our first company Board and get a strong governance framework in place to grow the business in a robust way. I highly recommend the team to any business looking to grow in a sustainable way.'
Marc Buchner, Managing Director, SDDirect
'The Ancora Team was instrumental in helping us develop a strong Board, a clear growth strategy, and is now contributing to the achievement of the strategy. They also play a key mentoring role to our leaders. They brought in their experience of growing previous firms, to complement our own experience, and they are central in supporting our growth.'
Ken Grant, Chair of The Majestic Line
'The way Marcia tunes into my goals and every piece of advice aligns to my values is so refreshing and helpful. She is not afraid to challenge my ideas and encourages me to step outside my comfort zone. I honestly don't think Higson would be where it is today without the guiding support of Marcia.’
Augusta Vivian, Founder, Higson
'If you get the opportunity to work with Marcia, I would highly recommend it! She helped me to develop and evolve my business strategy, quickly understanding our unique model and approach, and providing invaluable insight and challenge to really help us move forward and grow the business. I'm looking forward to continuing to work with Marcia over the coming months and years!'
Mark Hastings, Founder, i-10
'I worked with Marcia when she coached myself and fellow leaders in our technology consulting firm through an acquisition process. As founders of the firm this was an intense, challenging time. Marcia's calm input and experience was invaluable in helping us determine the right path forward. Marcia managed to find the perfect balance between letting the team work through decisions themselves and intervening thoughtfully when there was a risk we would go off-track. I would highly recommend Marcia as a leadership coach or mentor in any situation which requires intense collaboration and decision making.'
Jim Houghton, Co-Founder, Olivehorse
'Marcia and I continue to work together as I grow my businesses - her advice and wise counsel is considered and based in reality! She has a wonderful caring, empathetic style and at the same time not afraid to broker her opinion and express her views. She keeps me grounded and focused.'
David Goldstone, Founder of Vocaso and David Goldstone Associates
'A super insightful and successful growth expert with very effective advisory capacities coming from strong experience built over many endeavors.'
Dalia Wahba, Founder, CID Consulting
'Marcia has been working as a Growth Expert for The Consultancy Growth Network for almost a year now. In addition to advising members through our online platform and live events a core part of Marcia's role has been to conduct strategic reviews. The feedback we have had from members has been phenomenal. Marcia clearly has an extraordinary ability to make a difference to consultancy owners in a really short space of time. If you are looking for an adviser that gets to the heart of the matter and can introduce you to key people to help you on your journey then you will do well to work with Marcia.'
Marc Jantzen, Founder, The Consultancy Growth Network
