All projects
We improve and develop our clients’ companies – typically medium-sized and large business owners, as well as startups.
All projects

Our task is usually to identify the best opportunities for a company’s growth, prioritize them, and implement them. These opportunities may lie in the areas of strategy, business model, marketing, sales, HR, digitalization, business process optimization, and more.

Together with the client, we generate both short-term and longer-term results in the form of revenue and profit growth for the company. The company also becomes more manageable and systematic, while its market offering becomes more competitive.

During our work, we carry out a range of supporting tasks related to analytics, market research, assessment of the commercial attractiveness of projects, and more.

Ми працюємо з
We work with:
Large business owners Medium-sized business owners Top management Investors

We regularly help national market leaders (including companies employing thousands of people) undertake comprehensive internal transformations (organizational structure, strengthening the management team, motivation systems, business processes, etc.), as well as refine or completely rethink their market offering or overall strategy.

Most medium-sized business owners seek to scale their companies to the level of large enterprises, and these are the types of challenges we work on most often. We have a number of successful cases where our clients’ businesses grew into national market leaders. The advantage of medium-sized companies is their speed of decision-making and implementation of change, which allows the RAIN team to achieve results even more effectively.

In our work with top management, we focus on solving specific business tasks — relaunching the sales function, developing and implementing marketing strategies, building individual business processes, or conducting market research.

Our clients are often entrepreneurs and investors who have a business idea and want to turn it into a successful company.
Sometimes we begin our cooperation at the stage of searching for the idea itself. We help assess the investment attractiveness of a project and develop and implement an effective business model.
We have a number of cases where, together with the client, we built a business from an early stage that went on to become a national market leader.

Key industries we work with:

  • Food products
  • Healthcare
  • Retail, e-commerce
  • FMCG
  • Defense sector
  • Apparel manufacturing
  • Energy efficiency, renewable energy
  • Real estate
