Hello, I'm Nika Tole, and I'm thrilled to be your coach for the Financial Empowerment Program for Small Business Owners.

I know first hand the immense passion and dedication you pour into your business. You're the visionary, the marketer, the operations expert… and often, the accidental CFO. I understand the worry about cash flow, the uncertainty of financial planning, and the desire to price your offerings to truly reflect your value. I've seen countless business owners feel stuck in this cycle, just trying to keep their heads above water. You are not alone in facing these challenges.

My background is in accounting and finance, where I've worked across diverse industries like retail, logistics, manufacturing, gaming, and services for notable companies. I'm a double-qualified accountant with two master's degrees. But early in my career, even with climbing the ladder, I felt that relentless grind and something missing. I realised that true fulfilment – and indeed, true profitability – isn’t about doing more, it’s about doing things differently; it’s about smart, strategic clarity.

I truly love data because there are so many insights you can generate from a limited amount of it. Let me share a quick story: I worked with a small business providing beauty services at clients’ homes. They were struggling with declining profits, even while adding more services. We realised that many hadn’t reviewed their pricing in years. With just their sales and customer information data, we helped them create a dynamic pricing list that maximised their profits. For instance, we accounted for peak and off-peak times and developed promotions to maximise geographical areas – because the last thing you want in that industry is to travel an hour for your next appointment. We even helped them establish effective referral programs and customer reporting, allowing them to promote other services that really resonated with each customer (what’s better than a 50% discount on your birthday for a service you’ve never tried before? Oh, i know - your friends buying it for you).

It's this 'mad scientist' knack for deconstructing financial challenges and building clarity from raw numbers that I bring to your business. For example, in a recent billing project, I built a report from just invoices and payment data that generated over 39 distinct insights! This included everything from sales by period and service type, to amount paid by payment method, key open invoice metrics, total sales by lead type, average days to pay, and even detailed invoice distribution by payment method over time, complemented by trend charts. In fact, in my last businesses, I built working financial files and reports that are still in use 5 and 7 years later. Thats the impact of processes built right.

My philosophy, and what I bring to this program, is simple: to truly lead your business, you must first lead its finances. You can't take your business on a journey to sustainable growth if you don't confidently understand its financial roadmap. It’s about equipping you to be comfortable with cash flow predictability, strategic pricing, and confidently making decisions, transforming financial anxieties into empowered growth.

Through proven strategies, I've personally achieved significant results by doing things differently, including a 227% income increase, dedicating over 2,000 hours to personal development, and maintaining work-life balance with regular mini-holidays. These are the very principles of clarity and strategic action I bring to your business.

This Financial Empowerment Program is meticulously designed, drawing on my high-impact experience and the latest research in financial strategy. It’s built for ambitious small business owners like you, ready to move beyond financial firefighting and unlock your true potential.
