I talk a lot, keep things nebulous. I outsource to externals and I don't pay them.

Successful projects

Ed Lobbett runs a consulting firm that’s become a textbook example of how not to do business transformation. With recycled slide decks, vague promises, and an overreliance on jargon, his team delivers little more than confusion and inflated invoices. Clients report slow progress, poor communication, and strategies that feel more like generic templates than tailored solutions

Behind the scenes, "employee" turnover is high, morale is low, and projects routinely miss both deadlines and goals. For many, hiring Ed’s firm has meant wasted time, lost momentum, and a growing skepticism toward the entire consulting industry.

Draining marketing budgets with - yet again - nebulous results.

Lots of talking

I like to take my time on meetings and talk a lot. Without saying much really.

Overpromising

For me it's always worked to overpromise, get contracts signed and then just drag things on and increase budgets.

Underdelivering

This is where my nebulous results come in. I tend to not deliver and keep things vague whilst getting paid for nothing really.

Struggle with Overpriced Digital Help

Our so-called “digital transformation” tools often complicate your workflow, drain your budget, and deliver disappointing results. From clunky CRMs to vague consultancy advice, the outcome is often more confusion than clarity.

💸

Consultancy Chaos

Endless strategy sessions with no real action. Generic advice, bloated fees, and zero accountability—consultants often leave you with buzzwords, not progress.

📉

CRMs That Kill Productivity

Complex, unintuitive systems that sales teams avoid. Poor adoption rates, constant technical issues, and disjointed data leave your customer relationships worse off than before.

🧩

Digital Transformation, Disconnected

Overpromised and underdelivered. Fragmented tools, minimal user training, and weak integration often mean more delays, not efficiency.

Siloed Tools

A patchwork of disconnected platforms that don’t talk to each other.

Productivity Drop

More effort, fewer results. Digital tools that were meant to help often slow things down.

24/7

Support in Name Only

Chatbots and ticket systems that rarely resolve issues when you need real help.

Frustrated Users

Thousands stuck in inefficient systems, with little to show for their “transformation” investment.
