The GAP Method

Groundwork. Assets. Payoff. It shows you which way is forward from where you're standing. It isn't something you buy: it sits underneath every programme Katie runs.

  1. G

    Groundwork

    Where you really are. Your current reality, and the gaps in your time, money, skills and support.

  2. A

    Assets

    What you've already got, and how to use it. A good idea isn't a business until it has a model.

  3. P

    Payoff

    Where you're heading, and why. Your 12-month destination, and the route for the next 90 days.
