Building new businesses is a core part of the practice, at three scales: founders taking their first steps, established companies launching ventures, and companies of my own. The questions are the same at each scale: is there a market, does the plan hold, and who runs it afterwards.

Three scales of new business
- Founders
Start-up consulting and preparation for people going into business: a plan that holds, a market analysis, an independent review of the plan for funding bodies, banks or investors, and coaching on the first steps, from the offer and pricing to processes. Delivered under the Gründungspilot brand.
- Companies and investors
New businesses inside established groups: platform and proposition for a new energy retailer in the UK, and a UK solar and battery business taken to board approval. For financial investors, commercial due diligence on mid-sized manufacturers. The same questions as with founders, with a board or a fund as the investor.
- Own companies
Three so far: an e-commerce company with €1m+ revenue and 10+ staff (RP-Fashion GmbH, brand niki-orange), Gründungspilot, and an AI learning start-up built with partners.
Start-up consulting for founders
Start-up consulting and preparation is a core service of Ryter Unternehmensberatung, delivered under the Gründungspilot brand.
- Business plans
- Developed together with the founder: market, offer, financial plan and the reasoning behind them.
- Market analysis
- Market size, competition and positioning, so the plan rests on more than an assumption.
- Independent reviews
- A second opinion on a venture’s viability for whoever has to decide: funding bodies, banks and investors. That includes expert statements for the start-up grant, plan reviews for bank financing and commercial due diligence.
- Coaching
- From the first idea to the first customers: positioning, pricing, processes and the steps into self-employment.
