Unlock Commercial Growth For Your Business
Helping hospitality brands, members' clubs, events venues, sustainability ventures and hotel businesses unlock commercial growth.
"Your business has potential. I help you unlock it. From growing venue’s annual revenue from £200k to over £3m annually, I bring hands-on experience and a focus on turning potential into measurable growth."
Solving your growth challenges
Jonny Bann Consultancy helps businesses overcome hurdles in commercial growth, strategic positioning, and establishing lasting partnerships. Many organisations possess powerful ideas and strong brands, but often struggle to convert these into consistent revenue streams, valuable collaborations, and a distinct market presence. I bridge that gap by combining strategic insight with practical, hands on relationship-led growth solutions.
Interim / Fractional Leadership
Your business has growth potential, but you need experienced commercial leadership to turn it into results. I work alongside owners and leadership teams to unlock revenue, sharpen priorities and drive progress without the cost of a full-time commercial director.
Wedding Venue Consultancy
Getting enquiries but not enough bookings? I help wedding venue owners improve conversion, strengthen their commercial positioning and identify new revenue opportunities to build a more profitable, sustainable business.
Rural Diversification
Your land, buildings or existing business may have untapped potential, but knowing what is commercially viable comes first. I help landowners and rural businesses assess their assets, identify opportunities and evaluate potential before committing to investment.
Strategy, Advisory & NED Support
Facing a major decision, planning your next stage of growth or looking for independent commercial expertise at board level? I provide practical strategic advice, focused business reviews and ongoing advisory support, alongside Non-Executive Director opportunities.
Speaking Opportunities
Looking for a speaker or panellist who brings real-world commercial experience and an honest perspective? I speak at industry events, conferences and on podcasts about hospitality, wedding venues, rural diversification and sustainable business growth, sharing practical insights that challenge thinking and inspire action.
What do my clients have to say?
"Jonny has been a great support in developing sales and marketing strategies for both our existing venue and our new sauna business. His positive, fun approach to consultancy is rare, and it made our sessions with him genuinely effective. His breadth of experience in hospitality means he can wear many hats when it comes to building new revenue streams. I’d recommend Jonny to anyone looking to grow their profitability."

About Jonny Bann Consultancy
Unlock your businesses potential from commercial strategy, growth and leadership for ambitious hospitality, wedding venues, events, membership and hotel businesses.
I help businesses identify where their greatest opportunities lie, unlock new revenue, strengthen commercial performance and turn good ideas into strategies that actually deliver.
With more than a decade of senior leadership experience, I have worked across some of the UK's most interesting hospitality and destination businesses from attractions and prestigious estates to members' clubs, hospitality groups and purpose-led ventures.
I've built commercial functions from the ground up, led multimillion-pound P&Ls, developed new markets, repositioned brands, launched new experiences and built high-performing teams.
Now, through my Consultancy, I bring that experience directly to businesses that want to grow. Where I can help
Commercial Growth
Identify opportunities, develop new revenue streams and build a clear commercial strategy for sustainable growth.
Diversification & New Markets
Find new audiences, markets and revenue opportunities that make better use of the assets, people and capabilities you already have.
Commercial Brand Positioning
Clarify your proposition, strengthen your positioning and make sure your business stands out for the right reasons.
Interim & Fractional Leadership
Senior executive expertise when you need it without the commitment of a permanent executive appointment.
My experience that goes beyond the boardroom. My career has included senior roles with The Conduit, Heritage Venues and leading hospitality and destination businesses, alongside experience in attractions, events, estates and membership organisations.
At The Conduit, I helped deliver more than £1m in additional annual revenue while balancing commercial and impact and managing a community of more than 3,000 members.
Across two prestigious manor estates, taking them from several hundred thousand a year I helped build them into award-winning, multi-million-pound businesses hosting more than 300 weddings each year, opening accommodation, while developing new corporate, wellness and diversification opportunities.
I was part of the original team that launched LEGOLAND Windsor’s first Christmas experience, creating a new revenue-generating proposition during what had traditionally been a closed period for the park. It was an early example of how diversifying an existing destination and making better use of its assets can create new demand, extend the trading season and unlock a multimillion pound revenue stream.
Today, I also serve as a Non-Executive Director of the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre, bringing my commercial, strategic and leadership experience to the board.
Practical experience. Commercial thinking. A focus on results. I don't believe businesses need more theory. They need clarity on what matters, a strategy that fits their business and the experience to turn it into action.
If your business has more potential than it's currently achieving, let's talk.

What could your venue be achieving commercially?
In my recent conversation with Guides for Brides, I share a little more about how I approach commercial growth, uncover new revenue opportunities and help venue owners turn ideas into action.
