Welcome…

I'm Adam Cotton and my business is Project August. I am a business owner, coach and advisor to founders and owner managed businesses.

Project August is something I have always worked towards and been able to accomplish.

Project August means to have a summer, working from wherever and spending quality time with my family and friends.

Irrespective of my label, what I do is help ambitious business owners unlock their full potential, remove blockers and help businesses scale and become ready to exit.

Most business owners have two goals. To scale and to exit (one day).

The truth is that only 1 in 5 SMEs are sellable.

My work begins with the now. By using a 12- point framework, I will uncover the truth in your business – your strengths, your weaknesses, the hidden challenges and the big opportunities.

From there, together, we focus on what will make the difference whether the goal is scale or exit.

Are you ready to scale or exit? Complete the 12- point Sale or Exit Ready Scorecard to find out…

YOU ARE IN GOOD COMPANY…

  • Having had coaches at various stages during my career, I have to say that Adam "get's it". The experience of running a business is unique so a coach that has been there is refreshing.

    MD, Packaging Business

  • I wasn't sure what to expect when I signed up, I just knew the business wasn't where I wanted it to be. Working with Adam helped me regain my love for what we do and our sales revenue has grown 150% in the last 6- months.

    Co-Founder, Manufacturing Business

  • I can't tell you how grateful I am! Your initial business analysis showed me just where I needed to focus. We are now turning a corner and my team are much more engaged.

    Owner, IT Business

  • Adam has had the most remarkable impact on the way I view my business. He helped me understand habits and behaviours that were not obvious to me and gave me the tools to improve moving forward. I could not recommend him more highly. His passion for coaching is infectious. He is a natural role model through the strength of his character and the conviction of his action. I’m honoured to have such a strong working relationship with him. His support is incredibly important to me. I’m really grateful to have him in my corner.
