Small Business Consulting
SME's resource is often stretched yet developing the longer term business is crucial. This poses a dilemma - how to tackle the strategic development without the additional burden of increasing permanent overhead. KDBC offers that solution.
Brand Licensing
From help in securing a license to strategic planning, KDBC can help make your licensed business more profitable. Getting the right license, at the right time, at the right price may sound a cliche but nonetheless true. Extensive experience in this field counts and my network of contacts is second to none. One client described Gordon as a black belt in licensing, we thought it amusing but aptly and accurately put.
