From strategy to execution that delivers result.
A senior advisory firm for brands that need to move the market — not another slide deck. We diagnose, decide and deliver, from the boardroom to the shelf.
Operators, not observers.
The Breakthrough is a boutique advisory built by senior commercial leaders with two decades inside global FMCG, consumer health and digital platforms. You work directly with the people who have run the brands — not a pyramid of juniors billing hours.
We bring the outside market view and the inside reality of getting things executed — pricing, portfolio, go-to-market, media and shelf. Big-firm rigour, without the big-firm distance or overhead. Every engagement is judged on one thing: the result it moves.
Four walls we help you crash.
Strategy & diagnosis
Where the brand really stands, where it is losing, and the strategy to build a position competitors can't easily take back.
Pricing & marketing finance
Pricing architecture and portfolio P&L that stop the profit leaking, fix the mix, and find where margin can grow.
Go-to-market & shopper
Route to market, category and shopper plans that win the battle where it is decided — at the point of sale.
Consumer connection
Distinctive communication and media that cut through — built on the right brief, spent on the right plan, online and offline.
If any of these sound familiar, we should talk.
The brand is losing share and no one agrees on why.
A price war is eroding margin and discounting isn't a way out.
The innovation pipeline is busy, but nothing actually lands.
Two portfolios just merged and the P&L is a maze.
You're entering a new market or channel and can't afford to learn it the hard way.
A launch has one shot — and it has to be right.
Results, not references.
Sized to the problem, not the invoice.
Diagnostic sprint
A fast, senior read on where you stand and the three moves that matter most. Low commitment, high clarity.
Strategy project
The full strategy and marketing plan — pressure-tested against competitors and built to be executed, not filed.
Interim leadership
When you need the strategy run, not just written, we step in and lead the function until it holds.
Advisory retainer
A senior sounding board for the CMO and the team — on the decisions between the big projects.
A firm sized to the problem.
Senior-led, always
You get the people who have carried the P&L and the launch — from first diagnosis to final decision.
Team assembled per project
We build the right expert team around your problem — no fixed overhead, no bench you pay to keep warm.
Boardroom to shelf
Strategy on paper is half the job. We can stay on to implement — including interim leadership — until it works.
