Microconsulting

Business Coaching for VSB's & SME's 

A Quick Business Turnaround

 

Business turnaround is when:

​

"A business recovers financially from a period of poor performance".

​

Turnarounds represent renewed stability and profitability after a prolonged span of financial hardship, ineffective business strategies, or mismanagement. 

​

Why Microconsulting was created

Very Small Businesses (VSBs) owners recruit locally, pay bills to their neighbors, and circulate and distribute wealth. Their earning go back to society, not to an investor or shareholder. They are the bloodline; they pay for sustaining small communities, islands, towns, and villages.

 

VSBs together with Small to Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) account for over 90% of any country's economy.

 

I come from, and live in a place like this. And I see the challenges. But also opportunities.​​​​

 

​

The Challenges

​

VSBs & SMEs face several challenges when it comes to getting support.

Some of those are:​​​​​

 

Cost Misalignment

  • Traditional consulting fees are too expensive for small business budgets

  • Implementation costs of recommended solutions are often unrealistic

  • Long project timelines drain limited resources

Resource Reality Gap

  • Consultants don't account for owners wearing multiple hats

  • Solutions ignore severe time and staffing constraints

  • Recommendations require resources small businesses don't have

Scale Mismatch

  • Solutions are designed for large corporate structures

  • Recommendations assume multiple departments and specialized roles

  • Programs are too complex for simple organizational structures

Implementation Challenges

  • Lack of dedicated staff to execute complex recommendations

  • No bandwidth for lengthy implementation processes

  • Limited capacity to manage large-scale changes

Cultural Disconnect

  • Corporate consulting language doesn't resonate with small business owners

  • Complex business frameworks feel disconnected from daily operations

  • Solutions often feel too theoretical rather than practical
