Clarity and Freedom from Working on Your Business

It happens to every owner good enough to get busy. The work fills the day. Pricing, marketing, cash flow and hiring wait for a quieter week that never arrives.

The Lumora Advisory

An advisor in the business with you, every month rather than once. Not a course, not a workshop, not a report that arrives and gets filed.

  • A scheduled session. In the diary, same time each month.
  • Written actions. Who does what, by when, after every session.
  • Your numbers reviewed. The same short set each month, so you see the line and not just the dot.
  • Contact in between. When something comes up you ask, rather than waiting 3 weeks.
  • One monthly fee. Agreed in writing before anything starts. No hourly billing.

Does This Sound Familiar?

  • You're the bottleneck

    Nothing moves without you, and you know it.

  • Doing admin at night

    You catch up on the paperwork after hours or on Sunday, most weeks.

  • Busy but not paid more

    You could not say with confidence which work actually makes money.

Our Framework

We work with you on each stage of our proven process.

  1. 01

    Illuminate

    Have a real conversation about your situation. We look inside your business. The margin, customers, capacity, and where your time goes.

  2. 02

    Focus

    Cut through distractions and turn your attention onto what actually gets results.

  3. 03

    Action

    Work the plan properly and you don't need shortcuts. Measure performance and see what works and what eats your time.

  4. 04

    Sustain

    Build the habits so the business starts working for you instead of you running the business.

Why Business Owners Choose Lumora

  • Experience, not theory

    15+ years owning and running companies across real estate, property management and operations. Advice from people who have had to meet a payroll.

  • You get the truth

    We tell it straight, including when the honest answer is that you do not need us. We would rather lose the engagement than take money for work that will not move anything.

  • A small client list

    We work with a limited number of businesses at a time. When we are full we say so. That is the trade for knowing your business properly.

  • We actually care

    Your business is not a line on an invoice to us. We are still there in month 6, when the plan meets reality and most of the real work happens.

Advisory From Operators

Lumora Projects Co is a business and marketing advisory working with small businesses across Australia and the Asia Pacific.

The firm was founded by Alicia Williams, who spent 15+ years building and running her own companies before advising anyone else's, across real estate, property management and operations. Hiring the team. Carrying the payroll. Making the calls you only have to make when it is your name on the lease.

That is the whole difference. Advice from someone who has had to meet a payroll lands differently from advice out of a framework.

Questions Owners Ask

What does it cost?

Engagements run on a monthly retainer. The amount depends on how much of the business we work across and how often we meet. You get the number in writing before anything starts, and it does not change without your agreement.

I don't have time for this. That's the problem.

That is the most common reason people wait, and it is the reason to start. The commitment is one scheduled session and the actions that come out of it. The point is to give you the week back, not to fill it.

Is this coaching, consulting, or accounting?

Advisory. Coaching tends to work on you. Consulting tends to hand over a report. This is neither. We work on the business with you and stay while it gets done. We are not accountants, auditors or tax agents, and where you need one we will say so.

How long is the commitment?

Most engagements run in blocks of 3 to 6 months, because nothing meaningful changes in 4 weeks. You can end an ongoing engagement with notice, and the terms are in writing before you start.

Do you only work with property businesses?

No. The founder's operating background is property and operations, but the work of pricing, marketing, cash flow, process and hiring is much the same in most small businesses.

Why is my invoice from Hong Kong, and why is there no GST?

Because the company is incorporated in Hong Kong and is not registered for Australian GST. Nothing about it is hidden. Your accountant may want to note it, and we are happy to talk it through.

Enough Thinking. Start Moving.

Nothing changes by waiting for a quieter month. There isn't one. The first consult is free and takes 45 minutes. If we are not the right fit, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
