Does it feel like running your business has become more about surviving than thriving? Rising costs, a tough market, and uncertainty about what really works—it’s no wonder so many business owners feel stuck. You’re working hard, but you’re not seeing the growth you know your business is capable of. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And the good news? It doesn’t have to be this way.

At Waggle Dance Ltd, we are a business consultancy focused on revenue generation. Based in the heart of Bristol and serving Bath and the surrounding areas, we understand the challenges you’re facing. Whether you’re struggling to bring in enough customers, relying too heavily on a few big clients, or trying to manage an underperforming team, we’ve been there. The truth is, the problem isn’t that you’re not working hard enough—it’s that you need the right strategy and direction to move your business forward.

The Waggle Dance Difference

Our approach is inspired by one of nature’s most efficient and effective teams: bees. Bees use the waggle dance to communicate precise directions to their hive, ensuring the entire swarm works together to achieve success. At Waggle Dance, we do the same for your business. Instead of leaving you to figure things out on your own, we provide clear, actionable guidance to help you grow and thrive.

And here’s where it gets even more unique: our methods draw from the lessons of training for an Ironman (Full Distance Triathlon 140.6 miles). Just like training for an endurance event, especially over 3 disciplines, growing a business requires a mix of steady, strategic efforts and bursts of high-intensity focus. We’ve broken our approach into several key components including:

• Zone 2 Sessions: Strategic, steady efforts that build strong foundations, such as optimising your marketing and sales processes.

  
  

• Sprints: Targeted, high-impact actions designed to deliver quick wins, like improving lead generation or closing deals faster.

  
  

• Hills: Tackling big challenges with determination, such as scaling your business or leading your team through change.

  
  

With over 20 years of experience in business development, sales, and marketing, we know what good looks like. And more importantly, we know how to get you there.

Why Business Owners Like You Feel Stuck

Let’s face it: the world of business can be overwhelming, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Bristol, Bath, the South West of England and across the rest of the UK. Many business owners struggle with:

• Marketing efforts that don’t generate enough leads.

  
  

• Over reliance on a handful of large customers, creating a risky revenue model.

  
  

• Sales teams that aren’t delivering results—or having no sales team at all.

  
  

• Managing people and creating a motivated, high-performing team.

  
  

On top of that, you might feel hesitant about growth. It’s a big step, and without the right guidance, it can feel risky and overwhelming. That’s where we come in.
