Our Story

Building financial confidence for Australian businesses since 2018, one conversation at a time.

Where It All Started

Back in 2017, I was working with small business owners across regional NSW who kept asking the same questions. How do I read these financial reports? What does cash flow actually mean for my day-to-day operations? Why do profitable businesses sometimes struggle with money?

These weren't complicated businesses with complex structures. They were cafes, retail shops, trades services – real businesses run by real people who just needed someone to explain finance without the jargon.

That's when olyntherave was born. Not as another consulting firm promising overnight transformations, but as a place where business owners could finally understand their numbers and make informed decisions.

2018
Started with basic financial literacy workshops for local business owners. Five attendees at our first session – all asking brilliant questions.
2020
Expanded to online education during lockdowns. Discovered that business owners everywhere were struggling with the same fundamental questions about finance.
2022
Launched comprehensive business finance courses. Started seeing real results as clients gained confidence in their financial decision-making.
2024
Introduced one-on-one consulting alongside group education. Sometimes you need personalized guidance for your specific situation.
