Serious Scale
Strategies to go global

About

Vision. Strategy. Execution.

Let's grow.

Holly Bounds founded Serious Scale LLC to combine her love of culture and travel with her knowledge and experience in growing businesses from start-ups to Fortune 15 companies.  Ask yourself: As an entrepreneur, do you have free time? We bet not. Like you, Holly values efficiency and effectiveness; having received length reports from expensive consultants sadly lacking in actionable recommendations, she resolved to always provide her colleagues and clients with well-considered options accompanied by anticipated outcomes. We do not bury you with mountains of data and leave you to make a decision all alone. We conduct the due diligence required to understand your business and give you actionable directional recommendations that help you make the right moves to grow your business. Globally.
