Why Work With Us?

What sets us apart is simple: you work directly with an experienced founder who has built multiple businesses from scratch across a multitude of sectors. This unique breadth of experience means you get practical, grounded, founder-to-founder support, not generic consultancy advice.

✔ Founder Led Expertise You Can Trust

Your advisor has personally launched and grown businesses in financial services recruitment, e-commerce marketplaces, agri-foods, hospitality, and F&B. This gives you access to diverse experience that translates into stronger, more adaptable guidance.

✔ A Real Life Insight, Not Theory

We’ve lived the start-up journey many times, made the mistakes, learned the lessons, and navigated the challenges. You benefit from honest, experience based guidance that will accelerate your learning curve.

✔ Cross-Sector Thinking That Sparks Better Decisions

Different industries bring different perspectives. Our broad background helps you see blind spots, identify opportunities you may overlook, and approach challenges with a fresh and strategic mindset.

✔ Direct Access to the Expert

As a one-person consultancy, you work exclusively with the founder, no junior advisors, no delegation, and no diluted quality. Fast communication, consistent advice, and a partnership built on trust.

✔ Clear, Actionable Advice That Moves You Forward

Everything we recommend is practical and immediately useful. You’ll walk away with clarity, structure, and next steps that you can implement right away.

✔ Flexible Support Designed for Founders
