Problem they solve
FlyThru solve the challenges of collecting high‑quality aerial data where traditional surveying or inspection is too dangerous, slow, expensive, or impossible, including underground where no line of sight it possible.
Growth challenge diagnostic
For the past four months, Business Adviser Alastair Mackenzie from Ambition to Action East Sussex has worked with director and co‑founder Ben Bishop to support the company’s growth plans. Through a structured discovery and growth‑strategy workshop, they reviewed FlyThru’s progress, clarified growth objectives, and applied diagnostic tools to identify key challenges and opportunities.
Specialist advice
This process highlighted the need for clearer strategic direction, succession planning, and a unified long‑term vision. To address this, they developed a one‑page strategy, completed a GROWTHmapper diagnostic, and created a five‑year roadmap with aligned vision, values, and succession plans.
Impacts
The expected impacts during the next 12 months include hiring 2 new roles and a 30-40% increase in turnover.
