STRATEGIC BUSINESS ADVISORY.

I'm a business consultant who actually gets the built environment.

Whether you're running a scaffolding company, engineering firm, tiny home builder, or any business that shapes our physical world - I understand your challenges. Early starts, tight margins, weather delays, labour shortages, compliance headaches. I've been there with dozens of businesses like yours.
Here's what makes me different: I don't just give advice and disappear. I become part of your team, implementing solutions alongside you. When your project manager can't figure out the new system, I'm there. When you need backup in a tough negotiation, I'm there. When shit hits the fan at 6am, I'm there.
I only work with good people who treat their teams well and want to build something meaningful. Life's too short to help dickheads get rich.

Everything You Need to Grow Properly

Business Strategy & Planning
Figure out where you're going and build a realistic plan to get there. No 50-page documents - just clear direction that works with your reality. Quick wins, long-term vision, and everything in between.
Operations & Systems
Select and implement the right software (CRM, project management, whatever you need). Build processes your team will actually follow. Make technology work FOR you, not against you. Efficiency without losing the human touch.
Sales & Marketing That Works
Build sales processes that don't feel sleazy. Train your team to have commercial conversations. Price properly (stop leaving money on the table). Get known for the right things in your market.
Team & Culture Development
Keep good people and attract more. Create clear career paths. Handle the hard conversations professionally. Build a workplace where people actually want to show up.
Plus whatever else you need - from succession planning to community programs. I'm your strategic advisor, sounding board, and backup when things get real.

From Chaos to Control: A Construction Success Story

"Nikita helped us grow 25% while I actually started taking weekends off"
Revenue growth in 12 months
25%
Reduction in overtime costs
40%
Staff retention (was 60%)
90%
This business was successful but killing its founder. Working 70-hour weeks, good people kept leaving, profits were thin despite being busy as hell.
We started with the basics - fixed their pricing model so they actually made money. Implemented a CRM that site supervisors could actually use. Created systems that worked with muddy boots and early starts.
But we didn't stop there. The founder wanted to tackle the industry's mental health crisis, so we created an apprenticeship program with life skills coaching. We hired an ex-chippie and trained him to become their top salesperson.
The result? They're making more money, the team's happier, and the founder actually takes weekends off. Plus they're genuinely helping young blokes build better careers.
That's what happens when you fix the business AND build something meaningful.

Not Your Typical Business Consultant

1
We Actually Talk

No stuffy boardroom presentations. We jump on Google Meet and have real conversations. I get to know you, your business, your team, your struggles. We brainstorm, laugh, sometimes you vent. I ask lots of questions. We figure out what's really going on (hint: it's usually not what you think).

2
Plans That Make Sense

I go away and put together my thoughts - what needs to happen first, what can wait, what quick wins we can grab. Nothing fancy, just practical steps based on your actual budget, your actual team, your actual time. No MBA bullshit.

3
I'm In It With You

This is where I'm different. I don't hand over a report and disappear. Regular catch-ups, crisis support ("Nik, shit's hit the fan!"), meeting backup ("Can you join this call?"), random calls ("Nik, I've had an idea!"). I become part of your team.

4
Keep Getting Better

We track what matters, learn from what doesn't work, and celebrate the wins. Your business keeps evolving, and so does our approach. No set-and-forget - just continuous improvement that actually sticks.

Straight from the Horses Mouth

"When our industry's biggest supplier went under, Nikita helped us launch a replacement business in weeks. Website, CRM, marketing - all sorted. We kept the best staff employed and customers supported. Couldn't have done it without her."
Manufacturing Services Director
"I was drowning in quotes and working weekends. Now I have proper systems, a sales team, and actual free time. Revenue is up 40% and I'm working less. That's the kind of business consultant every trade needs."
Technical Services Founder
"Nikita transformed how we track and manage projects. We can finally see where we're making money and where we're not. Best business decision I've made."
