Services

Yes. The first call takes fifteen minutes and costs nothing. You tell me what is going on — a clear problem, or just the sense that something isn’t working — and I ask a few questions. By the end we both know whether I can help and what the right next step is: a Consultation, a Business Review, Business Mapping, or sometimes nothing at all. If I am not the right person for it, I tell you, and where I can, I point you to who is.

At the start, simple ones: what the business does, who it sells to, how the money comes in and goes out, who does what, and what made you write now. For a Business Review I then ask for the last twelve months of figures, the key contracts, a picture of who works where and a look at your channels. Nothing needs to be tidy — a spreadsheet, a few exports and an honest conversation are enough to start.

I reply personally within one working day. Most work starts within a week of the first call. When something has already happened — a problem that appeared out of nowhere, a regulator’s letter, a dispute that is escalating — we usually talk the same day, and at the latest within 48 hours.

Yes. On the Test your business potential page there are free calculators: what each client really costs you in marketing, what one hour of your team costs, what happens if sales drop, and a quick check of where money may be leaking. They run in your browser, nothing is sent anywhere, and you see the result straight away. If the numbers surprise you, that is a good moment to write.

An accountant makes sure the books and taxes are right. A consultant usually comes in for one project in one area. As an advisor, I look at the whole business — money, sales, people, tools and reporting — find where it breaks, help you fix it, and set up the reporting so the next problem is seen early. I work alongside your accountant and your lawyer, not instead of them.

A Business Review looks at the whole business, end to end: where the money goes, where sales are lost, who does what and where things fall between people, what gets reported and what nobody sees. You get written findings in plain language — what works well, what needs fixing urgently, what can wait, and what needs a closer look — plus one page with the three or four things that matter most, numbered by what to fix first. Then we sit down and go through it together. A Basic Review takes about three weeks.

Close, but broader. An operational audit usually checks whether processes run as they should. A Business Review does that too, and also looks at the money, the sales, the people and how the company looks from outside — and it ends with what to fix first. It is not a financial or tax audit, and it doesn’t replace your accountant’s work.

The Basic Review shows where the problems are, mostly from your figures, contracts and channels, with one hour of your time to confirm what I see. The Comprehensive Review goes all the way down: I talk to the key people, the rest of the team answers a short anonymous survey that only I see, I come to you as a client as many times as we agree, and I trace the money, the customer’s path and the reporting. You get the costs and leaks in euros, a plan for each person or department, and a check-in thirty days later. Going on to the Comprehensive Review after a Basic one costs less.

Business mapping draws how your business actually works: which people and platforms are involved, where leads come from and what happens to them, the customer’s journey, what is automated and what is done by hand, and what depends on what. On one page you see where you pay for the same thing twice, where work is retyped, and where an enquiry or an invoice gets lost. In one real case the map found about €12,600 a year the business didn’t need to spend.

Mapping fits when the question is how things connect: when the business is growing fast, before a big change — new software, a new partner, a sale — or when you feel you pay too much for too many tools. A Review fits when the business works but isn’t producing what it should and you don’t know why. If you are not sure, the free first call settles it.

A customer journey map follows one customer from the first time they hear of you to paying, coming back and recommending you — and shows where they get stuck or drop away. Yes, it is one of the maps I make, on its own or as part of Business Mapping. Because it shows what happens to an enquiry after it arrives, it is often where marketing money is quietly lost.

Both, but separately. A Review ends with findings — or a plan, if you want one. If you want help putting it in place — reporting that works between departments, templates and trackers, training your team, simple automations — that is Implementation, and each piece is quoted on its own. For complex automations, I write exactly what is needed and a specialist builds it.

It is for owners who want someone to keep an eye on the business once the reporting works. Every month the reports come to me, and you choose: we sit down, or I send you a written review. Every three months we meet for a closer look at one area, and between times I am available as we agree. It runs for a year.

The first fifteen-minute call is free. A Consultation — two hours on one problem — is €250. A Business Review, Business Mapping and Implementation have a fixed fee that depends on the size of the business and what we agree to look at; it is agreed in the free call, before any work starts. I don’t charge by the hour, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

Everything is paid in advance, against an invoice from AdnSol Kft., a Hungarian company. You know the full amount before anything starts.

Yes. You can move it free of charge up to 24 hours before. After that, the time is reserved for you and the fee stays.

I can’t promise a number before I have looked. In my experience, most owner-run businesses carry costs nobody has looked at together — tools paid for twice, work done by hand, enquiries that never get an answer. In one real case, the map paid for itself in under two months.

Yes, always. If you want one before you share anything about your business, send yours or I send mine — it is signed before we go into detail.

Only me. I work directly with you — no junior team, no intermediaries — and nothing goes further without your agreement. Findings come to you as a PDF that belongs to you, not as a shared link sitting in someone else’s system.

Less than most owners expect. For a Basic Review, if you send what I ask for, I work on my own and we need one hour together to confirm what I see. If something is missing, I ask by email or in a short call. In a Comprehensive Review I also talk to the key people, and the rest of the team answers a short anonymous survey.

Yes. Consultations, Business Reviews and Business Mapping can all be done fully online, for a business in any country. I am based in Budapest and meet clients in person here.

I work in English and Russian. Documents, figures and contracts in Hungarian are fine — send them as they are, and I work through them.

Usually owner-run businesses of up to about fifty people — from an owner carrying everything alone to a team with several departments: a shop with an online store, a studio, an agency, a trading or service company, a family firm. Usually the business works, but isn’t producing what it should, and nobody inside can see why.

Yes. If they are already involved, I work with them. If something needs a lawyer, an accountant, a tax adviser or an IT and security specialist you don’t have, I tell you — I work with people I trust, and when I don’t know the right person yet, I find them.

The reasons are usually ordinary and hidden in plain sight: prices that haven’t kept up with costs, marketing that brings enquiries nobody follows up, refunds or discounts nobody tracks, tools paid for twice, or work done by hand that eats the margin. From inside, each one looks small. A Business Review puts them side by side, in euros, so you see which ones matter. You can also start with the free calculators to see where your own numbers point.

Start with what you pay for twice, what nobody uses, and what someone retypes by hand — not with people or quality. Look at every tool and subscription together, check what each one actually does, and connect them where you can. That is exactly what a map shows on one page; in one real case it found about €12,600 a year.

Write to me, and we usually talk the same day. Depending on what it is, I point you to the right specialist and tell you what to ask them, advise you while you handle it, go through the decisions with you — or take the work on myself. How it is priced depends on the situation, and we agree it after the first conversation.

Yes. When something about the company starts to spread — online, in reviews, in the press, or among clients and staff — I look at what is actually being said, where it comes from and what is behind it. Then we decide together what to do, and what not to do. If it needs a lawyer, I tell you and bring one in.

Then you know it, from someone who looked at the whole thing — and you still get my suggestions for what could work better. If you want, we also talk about where you want to take the business and plan for that. It is up to you.

Because it is the same skill. In investigations I follow money through systems built to hide it; a business that underperforms is the same puzzle — somewhere, the flow breaks. Before that, I spent more than ten years working inside businesses: as an accountant, in sales for a large manufacturer, helping owners run their businesses, and running my own. I use all of it to help and advise.

Yes. The calculators run entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to me or stored anywhere — unless you decide to write to me about the results.
