🗣️ A Word from the Founder

Neil Anderson — Founder, Growth & Search
Practical operator. Big believer in structure over spin.

I built Growth & Search because I know how hard it is to grow a business when you’re time-poor, wearing too many hats, and short on strategic support.

I’ve spent decades working in and alongside small businesses in sales, leadership, operations, and growth. Again and again, I saw smart people doing good work, but without a clear system. Just guesswork, clutter, and unnecessary pressure.

That’s where the idea came from.


Why “Growth’s Magnificent Seven™”?

The name’s a nod to the classic film, a village under siege that calls in seven specialists to defend what matters.

In business, the challenges look different, distraction, complexity, time pressure, but the answer is the same: structure, focus, and the right help at the right time.

So I built a practical growth framework around seven core principles, the ones that consistently drive real progress in small and mid-sized businesses. No fads. Just fundamentals that still work, made easier to act on.


More Than a Framework — A Smarter Way to Execute

We haven’t just built a system that shows you what to focus on.
We also help you act on it through objective search and matching services that connect you with the right-fit partners to implement your plan effectively.

Because picking the wrong provider wastes time and money.
We make sure you avoid that and move forward with confidence.


What This Is — And Isn’t

This isn’t a new theory. It’s a better way to work with what we already know works. The principles in this system are backed by decades of research.  I’ve just filtered the noise and made them usable for leaders like you.

It’s not about building something bigger for the sake of it.
It’s about building something better on your terms.
And it’s free because it should be.

Thanks for being here. I hope Growth & Search gives you the structure, clarity, and momentum you’ve been looking for.
