Helping small and medium businesses improve their profit and reduce workload

Flexi Partners can join your team on a flexible, no-commitment basis

What is Flexi Partners?

Flexi Partners brings the professional skills and rigour of big business to small and medium enterprises across Australia.

Our team combines skills honed through years of finance, strategy and other experience at larger corporates, with a toolkit designed specially to target the opportunities and pain points faced by small and medium businesses.

Our Business Partners can join your team on a fractional basis, channeling their specialised knowledge to grow your business and reduce your workload - all without the hassle and commitment of hiring someone full-time.

Our Services

Our talented Business Partners can help propel your business forward with our specialised toolkit, or assist with ad hoc project management and financial / strategy analysis.

What's in it for you?

Discover new opportunities for sales and profit growth
Track business performance with in-depth reporting and clear metrics
Free up time by offloading burdensome projects and improving processes

If you want to take your business to the next level but are not sure where to begin, our Strategy Support program may be right for you.

We’ll work with you to tease out your business goals, uncover your strengths and weaknesses, and put together a clear, concise and actionable strategy. Our recommendations focus on helping you to improve profit, reduce workload and achieve your business goals, and an accompanying financial deep-dive ensures your goals are well thought-through and achieveable.

But we're not like regular consultants and our work doesn't stop there. After Strategy Support, one of our Business Partners can actually join your team on a fractional basis and help you implement your action plan.

Note: Strategy Support is a stand-alone program separate to our Ongoing Business Partner offerings
