Advisor ping-pong
My accountant said: that's a legal question, ask a lawyer. The lawyer said: that depends on the numbers, ask your accountant. The deadline passed while they pointed at each other.
Owner, 12-person company
Run · Business Advisory
Ongoing advisory, without putting your accountant in a role they cannot fill.
A senior partner on a monthly plan for finance, tax, legal risk, and partner questions: every day, one contact, one invoice. Advisory complements your bookkeeping; it does not replace it.
Thirty minutes, no charge · tier selection happens on the call, not before
“When a business gets complex, the gap is rarely accounting. It's the question no single specialist owns.”
Sulev Pikker · Founding PartnerSound familiar?
The unowned question
We lost our VAT number over a question nobody owned: the accountant filed correctly, the lawyer drafted correctly, and no one looked at the whole.
Cross-domain gap
Decision backlog
Three decisions have been waiting for a quarter: a partner buyout, a holding structure, a key hire. Each needs a different specialist, so none of them moves.
Growing SME
What a month on the plan absorbs.
1
A bank letter you are not sure how to answer
Forward it. You get the reply strategy, the draft, and a record of what was said.
2
Salary or dividends this quarter
The numbers are read together, the trade-offs named, the decision documented.
3
A contract that is almost right
Sulev flags the two clauses that matter and routes the rest to a partner lawyer only if needed.
4
A partner meeting you dread
Agenda, leverage, and wording: prepared before, debriefed after.
Three depths, one model.
Fixed monthly fee · three-month starting term, then month to month · cancel with one month's notice · partner-network access in every tier. A 30-day Intensive pilot is available: one month, no annual commitment.

Not sure between tiers? That is what the discovery call is for. Most owners start at Basic and move when the cadence feels tight.
Advisory complements bookkeeping. It does not replace your accountant for filings, and Sulev does not take a board seat. When lawyers are needed, they join as named partners, not as hidden line items.
Sulev Pikker
Founding PartnerIn business since 1991: entrepreneur, trainer, and mentor. The monthly plan exists because the most expensive questions are the ones that wait, and every Advisory relationship runs through Sulev personally.
Before you book: the practical questions.
CommitmentWhat exactly is the commitment?
Three months to start: long enough to do real work together, short enough to feel safe. After that it continues month to month and you can stop with one month's notice. No annual lock-in and no early-exit fee theatre: if the relationship is not earning its keep, you leave.
HoursDo unused hours roll over?
Advisory isn't sold by the hour. The tier defines cadence and response time, not a bucket of minutes. A quiet month costs the same as a loud one, and a loud month doesn't generate a surprise invoice.
LanguageWhich languages do check-ins run in?
English, Estonian, or Russian: check-ins and written summaries in whichever you choose.
SpecialistsWhat happens when a question needs deep specialist work?
Sulev scopes it, brings the right specialist from the partner network, and coordinates the work. You approve the specialist's quote before anything starts; coordination is included in Plus and Intensive.
BookkeepingDoes this replace my accountant?
No. Your accountant keeps doing the filings. Advisory sits above that: the decisions, the structure, the questions that cross domains.
DirectorHow does Advisory relate to the Director service?
Director is an operational role with statutory responsibility; Advisory is counsel. Some companies need both. They are scoped separately and never bundled silently.
If the shape of help is different.
Fifteen minutes. The right tier, or none.
