Initial Consulting - Hospitality and Small Business Development

Initial Consulting

The Story Begins...

In 2002 Managing Director, Mark Pugh, established Initial Consulting to fill a recognised void in the market. Small business owners and operators were unsure about where they could go for support and guidance as many were not comfortable going to traditional consulting firms many of which appear targeted more towards larger businesses.

With the experience of having delivered business and tertiary level programmes and services to businesses and individuals both in New Zealand and overseas for over 15 years and with a growing number of business owners and operators requesting support directly, Initial Consulting limited was established. Initially the range of services included support and coaching for SME's plus contract management for larger organisations.

With specialist experience in the hospitality industry the Initial Consulting Hospitality division was soon established providing hospitality businesses with valuable skills knowledge and experience gained from many years experience in a range of hospitality businesses around the world.

From humble beginnings Initial Consulting now has a team of experienced consultants and advisors and external specialists who work in a collaborative environment to provide a full range of business services.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to "Achieve through Collaboration". We believe that rather than one business trying to cover all specialist areas and being good at what they do it is far better to develop strategic alliances and collaborate with the very best.

By following our mission we not only provide a one stop shop for business owners and operators but we ensure products and services are not simply good, they are the best the market has to offer. We have done the hard work shopping around so you dont need to.
