Who We Work With
We’re a good fit for…
Early Stage / Start Up Founders
• You're passionate and purposeful, but starting to feel overwhelmed, lacking direction, and growing pains in your business.
• You have limited strategy or operational frameworks in place, and you're unsure how to articulate your business model and impact.
• Value we create for you: clear guidance, simple strategy tools, and growth setting without the fluff.
Mid-Stage Plateaued Founders
• You’ve outgrown your current strategy or feel like it’s out of sync with your purpose.
• Your business is growing, but you and your team are hitting walls and roadblocks.
• You're struggling with brand/mission drift, team misalignment, or complexity creep.
• Value we create for you: team alignment, strategic prioritisation, clarity, and brand reset.
Founders in Transition (Pivoting or Repositioning)
• You've experienced a business change — market shift, burnout, crisis, loss of direction, or structural transformation.
• Your values are still strong, but your business model, brand or team no longer align.
• Value we create for you: strategic reset, business clarity, accountability, and alignment.
Meet Our Founder
Our secret to success relies on our talented team.
James Meldrum
Founder & CEO
For over 20 years, I’ve founded many businesses and successfully launched multiple brands and products in the FMCG/CPG space.I’ve scaled, led, and exited. I’ve also experienced failure and realignment. My business Nourish Foods was one of the first certified B Corporations in Australia.Warp & Weft is built on everything I’ve learned the hard way, combining practical strategy with values-led leadership, founder resilience, and decision-making you can actually live with.I don’t offer hype. I offer clarity, structure, and direction – in a way that works for you.
The Meaning Behind Our Name
We integrate responsibility into strategy.
In weaving the warp threads run straight and taut, giving cloth its shape and strength. They stand for the conviction that first inspired you: mission, values and the impact you want your business to make.The weft threads cross the warp, adaptable and expressive. They represent strategy, experiments and daily execution—the moving pieces that turn intent into performance.Either thread on its own unravels. Woven together they create fabric that lasts.Warp + Weft applies that principle to business. We unite the steady warp of purpose with the flexible weft of strategy so founders can scale profitably without losing their why.

How We Work
The Warp + Weft Method
At Warp & Weft, we work with purpose-led founders who feel stuck in the space between where there are and where they want to get to.We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all planning. We use diagnostic tools, founder-first strategy sprints, and practical advisory support to meet you where you are, and help you move forward with clarity.We use a robust yet flexible method that combines two core frameworks:
The Responsible Business Model Canvasâ„¢ (RBMC)
A practical tool to connect your business model to your values, purpose, and growth path.
The Responsible Growth Strategy Systemâ„¢ (RGSS)
A structured, five-part framework to assess and realign your strategy across purpose, prioritisation, people, practices, and performance.
