Honest advice on what to fix
Not every problem needs new software. Sometimes the process is the bug. We help you see what to change first — and what to ignore.
Straight guidance on what to buy, build, or leave alone — and how to tighten processes that waste time.
Timing. A written recommendation is usually 1–2 weeks after we see how the work actually runs.
What we do
Review tools and workflows, spot waste, and recommend a simple path: simplify, buy, or build.
Good fit when
You are drowning in tools, or unsure whether to invest in custom software yet.
What you get
A clear recommendation, priorities, and a plan your team can follow.
How we work
Listen first. Explain options in plain language. Stay honest if a cheaper path exists.
Good fit
You are about to buy software or hire a build, and you want a plain recommendation first — including “don’t.”
Not a fit
You already know the tool and only need someone to implement a vendor’s script. Or you want a strategy deck with no next step.
Scope
Indicative starting band: about R15,000 for a focused review of one process (buy, simplify, or build). Wider operating reviews are quoted after the first conversation.
Indicative starting bands after a short call — not a price list. We agree a fixed scope before build work starts. We will say if a cheaper path exists.
