Konektis

Enjoy success by business improvement

Then, enjoy the confidence, comfort and freedom that comes with it.

If others can thrive, you can too...

All of us have been where you are — sifting through fragmented advice, overwhelmed by confusing strategies, and frustrated by consultants who contradict one another…

Keep going this way, and the invisible costs keep piling up — mental health, poor work-life balance, and burnout. 

We’re not just consultants; we’re also business owners, and we know how tough it is to run a business. That’s why we started Konektis. Through integrated advice, our mission is to help you succeed and elevate your business to new heights. We’ve guided countless others through persistent challenges in growth, people and culture, technology, marketing, and efficiency. Now, it’s your turn.

All the advice working together

While traditional business consulting services offer valuable insights, they often lack a holistic approach and hyper-focus on one area (which means the others suffer). We provide a single, unified source of integrated advice across all business areas, giving you integrated, achievable solutions that make up the big picture.

Holistic Impact

Rather than addressing individual issues in isolation, we consider how different aspects of the business interact with each other. This holistic perspective helps business owners identify root causes and implement solutions that have a positive impact across multiple areas of the business, leading to more efficient and effective problem-solving.

Streamlined Decision-Making

You probably face a barrage of decisions every day, maybe without even realising it. Integrated advice helps streamline decision-making by providing a cohesive strategy that aligns with the business's overall objectives. This clarity reduces decision fatigue and ensures that choices made in one area of the business complement those in others.

Optimised Resource Allocation

By considering all aspects of the business, you can prioritise investments and allocate resources more effectively — even when money is tight. This means making strategic choices about where to allocate capital, talent, and time to maximise growth and profitability, ultimately helping you achieve your financial goals more efficiently.

Where do you need support?

A clear roadmap is essential for staying competitive and achieving long-term growth. We empower business owners through a structured framework that identifies purpose, goals, assesses market dynamics, and aligns resources effectively. It ensures that your business strategy is not just a document on paper, but a dynamic tool that adapts to changing circumstances. 

And of course, we know your business is as unique as you are. That’s why we tailor recommendations to your specific industry, market position, and goals, ensuring that the strategy developed is not a one-size-fits-all solution, but a personalised blueprint for success. 

We’ll help you navigate complexities, set achievable objectives, and create a strategic plan that guides day-to-day decisions and leads to sustainable growth. With the right guidance, you can leverage your strengths, capitalise on opportunities, and mitigate risks to thrive in a competitive business environment.

The way a business is structured can impact its ability to thrive in a number of areas like how and when the business or its owners pay tax, the ease or otherwise with which it can bring new investors on-board, the level of asset protection for the business owners against business failure, and the simplicity or complexity of its compliance obligations. In this regard your business structure should be an integral part of your business plan.

A thorough review of your structure enables us to provide insights into how it may work, or not work, for your future plans and strategies. For example, is it the best structure to cope with large scale growth? Does it provide the owners with sufficient asset protection? Is it relatively simple to bring on new investors? Will the banks like it (or understand it) should you be looking to raise capital or obtain business loans? Does it provide the best tax outcomes?

Whilst a business structure with optimal flexibility should be established at the commencement of the business it’s usually not too late to consider a restructure or at least a refinement to what is in place. We can assist you in all these considerations.

Meet the Team

An engaged, motivated workforce is a critical asset, which is why a positive workplace culture and effective human resource management are paramount. We start by looking at yours, understanding that every business has its unique culture, values, and vision. We’ll work with you to create a thriving workplace — an environment where employees feel valued, empowered, and motivated to contribute their best to help your business succeed.

By providing guidance on talent acquisition, employee development, performance management, and more, we’ll help you attract, retain, and nurture the right talent to drive success. We’ll also address challenges around engagement, retention, and productivity to identify pain points and offer tailored solutions that improve workplace dynamics. 

Together, we can enhance employee satisfaction and increase your overall organisational resilience and competitiveness. It’s not just about HR policies and procedures (although those are important); it’s about creating a healthy work culture where each person wants to contribute to business success.

Meet the Team

Technology and systems are drivers of efficiency — and they’re always advancing. As a result, technology can sometimes feel like a burden for business owners, when it should make your life easier. We’ll help by assessing anything you’ve got in place at the moment (such as workflows and processes) to identify areas where technology can be leveraged. 

In doing so, we can improve operations, enhance customer experiences, and boost productivity. Whether it’s implementing new software solutions, optimising data management, or embracing automation, you’re empowered to make informed technology investments that align with your business objectives. Our services also encompass cybersecurity, data privacy, and risk management, building a robust digital fortress where data is protected. 

By staying ahead of best practices, you can ensure your technology and systems meet current needs and also grow with you.

Meet the Team

We know business owners often face challenges in growing an authentic brand and marketing with efficacy. We’ll help you stay ahead of the curve with proven strategies. After we conduct an assessment of your current efforts, we’ll analyse market trends, understand your offerings, target audience, and more. This allows us to develop tailored strategies that not only attract and retain customers but also drive revenue growth. 

Our tactics include branding, digital marketing, web development, SEO, design, and more. You’ll discover how to harness data and analytics to make informed marketing decisions, so you can target the right audience with the right message at the right time

Altogether, you’ll maximise marketing investments, increase brand visibility, and build positive customer relationships. It’s about giving you the tools and knowledge you need to stay competitive and thrive in your market.

Success starts with three steps

A thriving business is closer than you think.

We’re intentional in who we work with — it’s how we ensure success — and it all starts with The Pulse Check.

1. The Pulse Check

It’s free, and the fastest way to give us a big-picture view of your business so we can uncover what’s working and what’s not. This is followed up by a 30-minute phone call to discuss your Pulse and let you know if we can move forward together.

2. Actionable Ideas

We’ll immediately email you actionable ideas that address your business challenges — big and small. We’ll work alongside you to keep things moving towards success.

3. Deep-Dive Meeting

Next, a Deep-Dive Meeting where we share insights, discuss the intricacies of your business, and decide which of the business areas (all or any combination) we should focus on.

Frequently asked questions

Traditional consulting businesses might offer good advice, but they often lack a holistic perspective. Konektis is driven by a team of strategic thinkers and offers integrated advice across five core business areas. This ensures that solutions address multiple aspects of your business, rather than hyper-focusing on one or two areas. This big-picture approach leads to more comprehensive and efficient strategies, without losing sight of the small details.

Absolutely. We tailor our business advisory services to your industry, market position, challenges, strengths, and goals, ensuring that the advice is not one-size-fits-all but a personalised blueprint for success.

The Pulse Check is a free initial assessment that provides you with immediately actionable recommendations and provides Konektis with a big-picture view of your business. Specifically, it’s a 23-question multiple-choice survey where you show us where your business sits within certain areas. It’s super easy, takes around 30 minutes, and there are no right or wrong answers.

After we review your Pulse, a 30-minute phone call is scheduled to discuss the results and determine if Konektis is right for your needs.

That’s a tough one — results vary depending on the complexity of the challenges and the specific areas of focus. Some changes might reap immediate benefits, and others might be a slow burn. On average, most business owners begin to see positive changes in their operations and performance within a few months of engaging Konektis.

Yes, Konektis’ integrated advice is designed to benefit SMEs across all industries, even if you have a very specific niche within your industry. Our flexible and customised approach allows us to deliver effective support tailored to your business.

Some business owners have a rough idea of which areas need the most attention, and others are completely lost here. Both are normal and okay! The areas will become clearer after you do The Pulse Check; it might be all five, just one, or any combination.

Yes, we’re happy to work alongside any other advisors or business consultants you might have on your team, whether they’re in-house or third-party.

Konektis offers tailored pricing based on the specific services required and the complexity of the challenges. We are completely transparent with pricing and the details are discussed during the phone call following your Pulse Check.

Both. We’re based in Melbourne and Sydney and can meet with you in person if you’re also based here, otherwise, we’ll conduct everything remotely. We work with businesses across Australia.

Meet Ruth

A turn for the worse.

Ruth poured her heart and soul into her retail business, and for a while, it really was thriving. However, as her business expanded, she opened multiple stores across Sydney and struggled to keep up with the growth. Turning to traditional consultants and her own research, Ruth found herself piecing together fragmented advice that was difficult to understand, and often contradictory. This led to stagnant growth, burnt-out employees, and increased stress levels for Ruth.

Choosing Konektis.

Ruth was drawn to Konektis because we’re business owners as well as consultants, which meant we understood the unique challenges she faced. We assessed Ruth’s business and it became clear that Ruth needed support and advice in three key areas: Structure & Advisory, Technology & Systems, and Sales & Marketing.

The power of integrated advice for Ruth.

With Konektis by her side, Ruth streamlined her organisational structure by reshuffling internal roles and redefining job descriptions, resulting in better workflows. She also created a new “Team Leader” position for her largest store to support her Manager.

To improve operational efficiency and boost productivity, Ruth introduced new software to manage shifts, onboarding, and inventory, and swapped to better-suited accounting software. 

Finally, Ruth revamped her marketing approach to create a robust digital presence. She stopped relying on word-of-mouth marketing, built an eCommerce website, and used Google Ads to attract new customers. 

Thanks to our integrated advice, Ruth has achieved a healthy work-life balance, seen her mental health improve, and her business is on a trajectory towards even greater success. 

“Before Konektis, I was obsessed with my business in the worst way. I felt like I was barely treading water, and spent every moment thinking about how I could swim again. It was so reassuring to ‘hand over my business’ in a sense, and work with the team to revitalise it from the inside out. They always ensured I understood every strategy and never tried to upsell me with strategies I didn’t need. 

Now I feel totally confident in my business because I know where I’m going and how to get there.”
