About 02

Two exits.
Both on my terms.

I started a tutoring hustle out of a granny flat. What followed was one of Sydney's leading English tutoring firms, built from the ground up and sold without a hiccup.

I then built and exited an edtech AI startup, a product that initially had no traction. I transformed the business in six months and negotiated an exit that was nationally recognised.

Both times, the same principle held: build the business to run without you before you ever think about selling it. That shift changes everything about the price, the terms, the timeline, and who holds the power in the room.

"Most founders are building a job and calling it a business. Nobody pays a premium for a job."

I work with founders who are serious about scaling to the next level, or who want to prepare for a clean, premium exit. Either way, you are ready to invest in making it happen.

Three ways
to work together.

Most people start with the audit. It tells you exactly where you are before committing to anything further.

01

Exit Readiness Audit

Single session +

A rigorous deep-dive that assesses your business through a buyer's lens and gives you an honest read on where you actually stand. You'll walk away with a written report and a one-page priority action plan, delivered within 5 days.

  • Pre-session business questionnaire covering financials, operations, and team structure
  • 60-minute strategy session reviewing your business as a buyer would see it
  • Written audit report identifying gaps, risks, and value drivers
  • One-page priority action plan with the most critical moves to make first
  • Follow-up call to walk through findings and answer questions
02

Exit Ready Cohort

6–8 weeks +

A small-group programme built for founders who are serious about the work. Six to eight people. Six to eight weeks depending on whether you are scaling or exiting. Shared frameworks, direct accountability, and access to me throughout. You leave with a business that is genuinely ready for what is next.

  • Weekly group sessions covering each pillar of exit or scale readiness
  • Private Slack channel with direct access to me between sessions
  • Individual audit and personalised roadmap at the start of the programme
  • Guest sessions with M&A advisors, operators, and founders who've exited
  • Final presentation: your business positioned and packaged for what's next
03

Active Exit Support

Ongoing +

I am your personal negotiation gun. If you are in a sale process, I am the person in your corner who has been through it, done it twice, and knows exactly how to get more from a buyer than they planned to give. I am not a broker. I am an advisor who wins when you win.

  • Deal preparation: financials, information memorandum, narrative positioning
  • Buyer identification and outreach strategy
  • Term sheet review and negotiation support
  • Due diligence preparation and management
  • Direct access throughout the entire process. No handoffs, no junior advisors, just me.

Results that
speak for themselves.

Sim completely changed how I thought about my business. I went from thinking I was maybe 3 years away from a sale to closing a deal 14 months later, on terms I never thought were possible.

Founder, B2B Recruitment Agency · Sydney

The audit alone was worth 10x what I paid. She identified three things that would have killed any deal. Things I didn't even know were red flags. We fixed them. The business sold six months later.

Priya M.

Founder, Education Services · Melbourne

I'd had buyer interest twice and walked away with nothing both times. Sim showed me why. Six months of working together and I had a deal that actually stuck at a multiple I'm still proud of.
