Strategy, mentorship, and funding advice for entrepreneurs and small businesses — a boutique practice rooted in Bray, Co. Wicklow, working with clients nationwide.
Bray Business Support is a boutique strategy and mentoring practice, built for owners who want a straight-talking sounding board — not a corporate consultancy.
Running a small business is relentless — you're doing the work, managing people, chasing cash flow, and trying to plan ahead all at once. We work alongside business owners as a hands-on strategy and mentoring partner, helping you step back, see the bigger picture, and make confident decisions.
We work with businesses across every sector — retail, trades, hospitality, professional services, and beyond. Rooted in Bray, Co. Wicklow, and working with clients nationwide, we bring the same close, personal approach wherever you're based.
"We started Bray Business Support because we know first-hand what it takes to run a business. Between us — a husband and wife from Bray — we bring backgrounds in retail and in real estate and hospitality, shaped by our own families' businesses. That gives us a practical, lived-in understanding across real estate, tourism, hospitality, retail, and cuisine — and what business owners in those worlds are up against."
Not a big consultancy with layers of account managers — direct advice from the people doing the work, flexed to where your business actually is right now.
Ongoing, one-to-one guidance for owners and founders — working through the decisions that matter, with a team that's seen how they play out.
Practical help getting a new business off the ground — from shaping the plan to avoiding the early mistakes that cost the most.
Clarity on what funding routes and local grant schemes actually fit your business, and how to put together a case that holds up.
Working through a growth challenge, a stuck patch, or a decision you can't quite see your way through alone.
Advice on business expansion strategy and investment decisions, along with guidance through exits, mergers, and acquisitions when the time is right to sell, buy, or bring in a partner.
No lengthy onboarding, no packages you don't need — just a conversation, a plan, and ongoing support if you want it.
We talk through where your business is, what's working, and what isn't. No cost, no obligation — just to see if it's a good fit.
Together we set out the priorities and the practical next steps — specific to your business, not a generic template.
Regular check-ins and hands-on help as things progress, so you've got a sounding board for as long as you need one.
Whatever your business does and wherever in Ireland you're based, we bring the same close, hands-on approach we built our name on in Bray.
Yes. We start with a no-obligation call to talk through your business and see if we're the right fit — no cost, no pressure.
