Our difference

Why Australian SMEs Choose CompassPoint Advisory

We're not a generalist consulting firm. We're not a freelance marketplace. And we're not a coaching program that hands you a workbook and wishes you luck. We are a dedicated strategic partner — one that rolls up its sleeves, learns your business deeply, and works alongside you to drive real, measurable outcomes.

01

Enterprise experience, SME focus

20+ years of senior corporate expertise, now exclusively focused on SMEs.

02

Melbourne-based, nationally active

In-person, remote, or hybrid across Australia.

03

Results-first, not hours-first

Every project scoped around your outcomes — not billing targets.

04

Built for the $5M–$20M business

Designed around the specific challenges of this growth stage.

05

AI-ready advisory

We stay at the leading edge of AI and digital transformation so you don't have to.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on how we work, who we serve, and how to get started.

A business consultant works alongside SME owners and leadership teams to solve strategic, operational, and organisational challenges. At CompassPoint Advisory, we help Australian small and medium businesses build growth strategies, improve their operations, manage change, and adopt AI and digital tools - giving them access to expert thinking previously available only to large corporations.

Fees vary depending on scope, duration, and engagement type. CompassPoint Advisory offers flexible models - from project-based engagements to on-demand hourly advisory - so SMEs can access support without a large upfront commitment. We offer a free discovery call to understand your needs and provide a tailored proposal. Consider consulting fees as an investment - the right advice at the right time can unlock revenue, reduce waste, and accelerate decisions.

If you're experiencing rapid growth without systems to support it, a clear ambition but no strategic roadmap, operational inefficiencies eating into margins, a major change underway, or leadership challenges affecting team performance - consulting support could be transformative.

The first step is a free, confidential discovery call with our founder, Amelia Ghofrany. In 30 minutes, we'll explore your goals, your challenges, and whether we're the right partner. Book directly via our Calendly link - no commitment required.
