What Is Business Detective?

Business Detective is a step-by-step system to analyse business and research markets for a high stakes strategy.

I distilled my near 2 decades of experience doing analysis for strategies into a blueprint you can follow to deconstruct business of any size (or maturity).

Most strategy courses out there simply gloss over this critical phase of analysis during the strategy lifecycle. So you are left wondering what and how to get the analytical insights.

The reason Business Detective is different is that it is…

...The first and only course that shows you exactly how to do the analysis on a business and market so you can create relevant, powerful strategy.

This isn’t analysis for analysis sake. This is analysis that needs to happen for a high stakes strategy.

Which is what makes it so special.

I designed the system to compress the time it takes to perform analysis so you can get going on making the strategy.

You will get the cutting edge techniques that practitioner strategists use to conduct business and market analysis for a strategy.

Business Detective is based on 7 dimensions of analysis that is broken down into internal (core, levers, economics) and external (competition, market).

Starting at the core circle on customer and product,
...then the next outer circle have the levers of business performance,
...then the next expansion is the economics of the business,
...after that expand out some more to the competition,...
and then last the outer most circle which is the market itself.

Here is a visual of the concept of the circles and how the 7 Dimensions are organised:

The Business Detective Difference

Analysing business performance and market segments is a big topic...

The old way of doing analysis is archaic and slow. This is because it was taught in a way to apply to everyone, for any context.

No one has yet developed a system that optimises analysis for speed (without missing any important details) that is purpose-built to get valuable insights for high stakes strategy.

Until now...

I have done something special with Business Detective, and that is to:

Simplify + Modernise

Simplify: The 7 dimensions framework is easy to use and remember following the inside-out method of starting with the core of business and expanding out to the market.

Modernise: A fresh take on old concepts, I show practical and up-to-date methods that top strategists use when engaged on a strategy.

It is the only course of its kind because it goes deep into the exact step-by-step method to look at business performance and market segments and use the insights for a strategy.

Business Detective system is designed to help you be targeted (efficient) in your analysis so you can massively shorten the time is takes to analyse business and get quality insights.

VALUE CHAIN

6 Building Blocks of Business

The simple, yet powerful structure of the Value Chain framework which is a pre-analysis tool so you can get an end-to-end snapshot of the whole business before you even start (I use this all the time btw, its my secret hack to examine the building blocks of business, of any size and maturity level).

CORE (D1 & D2)

How To Gauge Business Health

When you start the analysis you need to a fast way to see the health of the business (it will clue you in early on whether this business has real issues).

I use a simple set of techniques to analyse customer and product holding numbers which basically points me in the right direction.

The multi-product holding tactic alone is surprisingly effective in telling us if there is a business gap.

LEVERS (D3 & D4)

How To Analyse Business Drivers

This is the meat of the analysis and where we completely deconstruct the business and look at the drivers of performance.

Its the same method top strategists use for high-end strategy (and I use a real world detailed example to demonstrate this method).

You will know EXACTLY which levers need to be moved to get BIG results.

ECONOMICS (D5)

How To Use Margin And Unit Economics

The unique way practitioner strategists look at profit and economics.

You’ll see the difference between how strategists look at profit drivers (vs. finance’y people) so you understand how to create economic value for your business.

This the way the pros use profit numbers to design strategy that creates sustained growth.

Note, we cut out 90%+ of the noise out there to give you just the vital few financial techniques you need to know.

COMPETITION (D6)

6 Steps To  Scan Your Segment

You’ll learn how to analyse the competitive landscape using my 6-step competitor and market analysis technique.

Its a combination of customer insight analysis and competitor positioning to help you zero-in on the gaps in the market.

You learn to standardise measures so you know (with crystal clarity) who is over and under-indexing and on which specific attributes.

You will be able to scan competitors and find their achilles heel.

MARKET (D7)

How To Take Advantage Of Market Forces

The closest thing you get to having a crystal ball. You’ll get the 4-part market trends framework to look at the market trends impacting your business.

And you will know how to position your business so you can avoid the harmful trends and take advantage of the positive trends.

This is the step that will help you avoid paddling upstream, instead it will give you confidence on your decisions.

Hi there, I'm Shehraz

I'm Shehraz Ishak, an independent strategy consultant based in Melbourne. I create designs and strategies for businesses that want to solve a big problem, execute a transformation or grow customers and profits.

OK OK, I know what you are thinking.

We've been through this before, we know who you are!

You send out all those Overnight Strategist Letters.

But just in case, here's the quick RECAP 😀

I've architected platform strategy to digitise the entire sales and service experience for a suite of products. I've designed monetisation strategy to unlock value from existing assets and create big $ for companies. I've created growth strategies that re-energise brands and turn its customer and sales trajectory to 'way up'.

Business Detective is designed to give you hands-on practical skills analysing business and markets to design a strategy.

I use the same methods for high stake client strategy in Business Detective to rapidly deconstruct business and get powerful insights.

Clients are often surprised how I am able get a handle on their business and market segment so quickly.

I share those analytical techniques so you can do the same using the 7-dimensions framework.

TESTIMONIALS

What Our Customers Say

See what strategists are saying about the Overnight Strategist :-)

"No Fluff, Logically Sequenced"

The Strategist Toolkit is helping me understand what quality consulting deliverables look like, see behind the scenes to develop a solid corporate strategy for clients, and to use visual frameworks and patterns effectively.

My favourite thing about the Strategist Toolkit is the concise yet rich content. It's highly produced and edited.

No fluff and logically sequenced. "Tradecraft Strategy Partners Don't Want You To Know" I'd recommend this program for someone serious about getting into management consulting and wanted to deliver it in a fresh, modern manner.

Eric B.

Innovation Consultant

"Comprehensive, Streamlined"

My name is Amanda and I am currently a consultant, but have struck out on my own and have always seen the world from a more strategic perspective.

I had been looking for a set of frameworks to help me focus my efforts and the Overnight Strategist is legitimately the most comprehensive and streamlined set of tools and instruction I have come across about anything frankly.

I think this product is excellent and wish I had it years ago!

Amanda M.

Independent Consultant

"Very Practical"

Much of my time is spent working directly with Fortune 1000 executives in a value & strategy consulting role.

I use Overnight Strategist as a quick and easy to use sounding board to ensure I am headed in the right direction when things get complex.

I also find it helpful to better articulate and communicate more abstract concepts in a simple way - both internally and externally.

Very practical insights you can start using immediately in most any role.

David K.

Head Of Global Supply Chain Value

"Clear To Use, Actionable

This framing and guidance is clear to use, concise, pragmatic, actionable and allows me to get right on with becoming more effective.

The various formats are much appreciated, short text and videos, not having to sift or follow a wandering path through non-actionable content or fluff.

Thank you again for this resource. It has really helped me refine my approach, given me confidence in the work I did when I was just guessing at how to start this process before I found your tools, and got me unstuck a few times when I truly didn’t know what to do next.
