Most businesses don't fail because of a bad idea. They stall because the path forward isn't clear.

At CompassPoint Advisory, we work with Australian SMEs to cut through the noise — bringing the kind of strategic thinking and hands-on expertise that's usually reserved for the big end of town, and making it work at your scale.

We're not a generic consulting firm. We're the partner that sits alongside your leadership team, helps you see around corners, and moves with you through the complexity of growing, changing, and competing in a market that doesn't slow down.

Credentials

A selection of organisations and sectors

Founded by Amelia Ghofrany, our work is grounded in 20+ years of senior experience across technology, financial services, aviation, health, retail, energy, and government programs. We help leadership teams align on strategy, tighten operations, navigate change, and adopt AI where it genuinely moves the needle.

Scaling a business shouldn't mean sacrificing control.

Many founders reach a point where passion and momentum outpace structure and strategy. The decisions become more complex, the stakes grow higher, and the gap between where you are and where you need to be starts to feel wider.

That is precisely where CompassPoint Advisory comes in. We bridge the space between entrepreneurial vision and institutional execution, bringing the rigour of enterprise strategy to the businesses that need it most.

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.
