After years in strategic and operational management roles across a wide range of businesses and industries, Stefan recognized a common challenge among small and medium enterprises: Business Owners were drowning in ideas and conflicting information, but starving for practical help to make the changes their businesses actually needed. While there are plenty of advisors, coaches, and consultants out there, all too often they leave the hardest part, actual implementation, entirely on the Owner's shoulders.

Bismuth Advisory was founded in 2025 to help Australian SMEs reach their potential by combining strategic advisory and management expertise with hands-on implementation skills of an experienced operator. We believe that business consultants and advisors should treat their clients like they were a part-owner of their business. That means, prioritizing the best outcome for the business, standing by their advice, and being prepared to step in to help in when things go wrong.

So, that's exactly what Bismuth Advisory does. We work alongside Business Owners to identify challenges, prioritize improvement projects, and stick around to help them deliver and monitor the changes to make sure everything is actually running better.
