The Consultancy Growth Network (TCGN) is a vibrant community tailored for consulting business owners and their teams. It aims to provide invaluable insights, strategic introductions, and actionable advice, facilitating a growth-centric environment for consulting firms ranging from £500k to £30m in revenue. This network is designed for leaders who are ambitious, keen to expand their network, and eager to learn from peers who have navigated similar growth challenges​​.

Initially introduced through The Agency Collective, Total Growth Ownership has been a strategic partner of The Consultancy Growth Network for more than three years. As the official Marketing Positioning Sponsor of the network, Total Growth Ownership is committed to educating, supporting and propelling consultancies towards remarkable growth.
