SME & Tourism Advisory, Malawi & Southern Africa

Business systems & growth advisor for SMEs and tourism businesses.

Most businesses don't stall from a bad idea, they do stall because there's no system behind the growth. I build the operations, standards, and structure that let a business grow without breaking, drawn from 12+ years designing and enforcing those same standards inside Malawi's national tourism authority

How We Work

A straightforward path from problem to progress

Discover

We start by understanding your business, market, and goals in depth.

Strategize

We turn that insight into a clear, practical plan built around your reality.

Execute

We work alongside your team to put the plan into motion, not just on paper.

Grow

We track results and refine the approach as your business scales.

Why Work With Me

Why work with me

Systems-first approach

The operational backbone gets built before the growth plan, so scaling doesn't break what's already working.

Experienced in tourism & SME advisory

A track record spanning national policy contribution, regulatory enforcement, and private-sector advisory — including three national International Tourism Expos and creating international, regional and domestic market access

A balanced perspective

Every advisory or framework is built from real regulatory, investment and client work, then tested against academic rigour, so it holds up in any business, not just tourism.

Get Supported. This is suitable for businesses that are actively scaling and want an advisor alongside them, not just templates. It includes everything in Foundation, plus a monthly advisory call, priority quotes, a quarterly template customised to your operation, and a direct line for quick questions between calls.

It includes everything in Foundation, plus
Priority quote turnaround — Advisory Engagement scoping and quotes returned ahead of non-member requests, so a Growth member isn't waiting in a general queue when something urgent comes up
One template customization per quarter — an existing toolkit template (e.g. the SOP or Financial Model) adapted to the business's actual operations rather than used generically
Direct WhatsApp/email line between calls for quick questions that don't need a full session
Monthly 45-min advisory call (virtual meeting) — working session on whatever's live that month: systems, compliance, market positioning, or a specific decision the business is facing
