How to work with me
What I can offer
I can provide advisory services in the areas of business modelling, proposal writing, due diligence, financial planning, bookkeeping, budgeting, financial management, digital marketing, data analysis and visualization as well as training and capacity building.
My expectations for a successful mentoring relationship
My expectations are to see the ideas I share with entrepreneurs are used effectively and my greatest joy would be to hear or read their testimonials.
I will also be excited to see them grow their figures and business value.
How entrepreneurs can prepare before we start
I expect an entrepreneur to make a note of the areas s/he will want us to discuss.
However, I will like to grow with an entrepreneur right from the business idea stage.
