Small Business Consultant

Your fast-track path to
a less stressful business

Your fast-track path to a less stressful business

Hi I’m Kate

Your tea-drinking, cheesecake-loving, rosé sipping mum of one wild little boy called Oliver (yes, my company’s namesake!).

I’m a small business consultant and your fast-track path to a less stressful business.

If you’re here, I’m guessing you’re drowning in business chaos and verging on burnout.

Let’s get that sorted.

We are tech women in white font.
Business gamechanger magazine in white font.

Because let’s be honest:

you’re sick of Googling questions that barely make sense to you- you don’t know what you don’t know!

I can help you get specific answers that get you unstuck FAST- that’s what small business consultancy is.

I provide solutions to your online service based business.

ClickUp verified power user badge awarded to business strategist Kate Kurdziej

Been there, done that. Exhausting, right?

And even after watching them all, I’ll bet you still have a million and one questions that need answering, like:

I just want life to be simple – which platforms do I even NEED?!

I don’t have the time to research- isn’t there someone who can just tell me all the answers?

You need to get unstuck FAST, so you can get back to serving your clients!

I spent my corporate career deep in systems and processes, creating new streamlined methods of client and task management.

Now that our businesses are online, I bring all my real-life experience and serve it up in my role as a small business consultant.

BUT with a twist – how to crack the online systems and tech that leave you feeling totally lost.

What my clients say

“…clients are happy and taken care of…”

“It’s a wonderful feeling that everything works in the background without me doing anything. The clients are happy and taken care of and everything is in order ready for me to work on.”

Lucy Wheeler
Lawyer

So that’s what I do at Olivier Consultancy.

I stopped offering done-for-you services and started advising and training online service providers just like you to design and build out your own systems.

A timeless, high-quality approach which leaves you feeling calm and back in control of your business.

To be honest, I find the online boss babe thing tiring.

Hustle, grind, meditate, take pictures of your avocado toast and green smoothie.

Who has that sort of time?!

Since I became a mum to my little boy during lockdown, definitely not me!

And having helped lots of female entrepreneurs, as a small business consultant, I know that the real goal for women like us is having enough flexibility to take time off, without having to panic about how you’ll secure enough clients this month to pay your bills.

In 2021 I moved my family to France, achieving a long-held dream and I’m now on a mission to unlock your own work/life balance.

It all starts with your systems.

And a deeper understanding of how your business runs.

This isn’t a done-for-you service.

It’s business consultancy done with you, so it’s totally personalised to your unique business needs.

I help you deepen your understanding of how your own business works, gain clarity on your structure and longer-term goals, and find confidence to get out there and win more clients safe in the knowledge your business is efficient and profitable.

No more Googling or YouTube videos late at night.

Just refined and targeted systems guidance for online service providers ready to get serious, make money and be able to take time off without the guilt.

Intensive, exciting and just what you need to take back control of your business.

What my clients say

“…I wish she had been there from the start.”

“Kate’s really helping me get some structure and organisation in my business and I wish she had been there from the start.”

Medical Consultant

  • *FYI digital products include lead magnets*😱  I know you don't know what the GPSR is. 
You haven't even heard anyone say these letters in this order before.
And the thought of tackling EU 🇪🇺 legislation makes you want to stick your head in the sand.  But you sell digital products😬  And ignorance of the law is no defence when the EU begin to fine those businesses who aren't complying.  I remember when I was Data Protection Officer in the UK-  managing a business whose clients had reduce capacity following brain injuries and couldn't give consent to process their data- when the GDPR came into force.  The authorities were very understanding until they suddenly weren't anymore and starting issuing fines:  😭LinkedIn €310 million
😭British Airways €22 million
😭Amazon €746 million  Are you likely to be funded multi millions? Probs not.  But currently regulators of the GDPR can fine uo to €20 million or 4% of annual turnover whichever is HIGHER so either way it would be financially devastating for you to think this doesn't need your attention.  I know this feels scary, but I'm here to help.

  • So it starts NOW🌴👇  You’re the kind of coach who doesn’t just want a sold-out retreat. You want an experience that blows your clients' minds, has them raving about you on socials and has them rebooking before the week is even over!  Most people plan a retreat a few months in advance and hope it pays off.  WRONG, so WRONG.  I'll show you how to plan with precision 12 months in advance and walk away with multi 4-figure profit margins before you’ve even landed at the venue  You already know the impact your retreat will have. The only thing standing in the way is a high-level plan and a specialist who knows how to execute it flawlessly.  Imagine having access to all the resources you'll need to plan, fill and deliver your vision-board retreat?  Comment PROFIT and I'll share with you exactly what you need so you can focus on creating THE experience of a lifetime for your clients🌴  #businessretreats #retreatsinspain #spanishretreat
