Still spending hours pulling reports together?
Still exporting from SQL, copying into Excel, fixing formulas, and chasing down missing figures?
That’s not reporting. That’s firefighting.
Here’s where a Power BI consultant can change everything - and free your team up to focus on what actually moves the needle.

What does a Power BI consultant actually do?
A good Power BI consultant doesn't just build dashboards. They:
Connect your systems (Xero, Shopify, Excel, SQL)
Automate your reporting so it updates daily without anyone lifting a finger
Design visuals that help you and your board see what’s working - and what’s not
Train your team so you’re not reliant on one person with Excel wizardry
They take your messy, siloed data and turn it into a single source of truth.

Why it’s a game changer for your business
Here’s what I hear from clients after we’ve worked together:
“Month-end now takes a day, not a week.”
“We finally trust the numbers.”
“The board actually use the dashboards!”
“We spotted a margin issue we never saw before.”
You save time. You spot risks earlier. You make better decisions. You sleep better.
What kind of problems can we solve?
If you’re wondering where Power BI can add value, here’s a few examples:
Want to know if your promotions are actually working?
We’ll track ROI by product, channel, and region.
Want to understand your pricing strategy?
We’ll analyse margin, competitor pricing, and price sensitivity.
Want to improve sales performance?
We’ll break it down by rep, product, and customer to show where the gaps are.
And if you’re just looking for help understanding your data - we do that too.
Not just a dashboard. A smarter way of working.
This isn’t just about making your reports look better.
It’s about giving you and your team time back.
It’s about reducing risk.
And it’s about giving finance and business leaders the confidence to move faster.
