Today, we’d like to introduce you to Amani Wells-Onyioha.
Hi Amani, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today.
As a former Chief Operations Director at a political start-up that grossed 5 million dollars in sales in just three years, I learned a lot about business operations and how it is the silent but mighty key to keeping business running smoothly. I worked on political campaigns all over the country, from US Senate races to municipal races and every race in between. I’ve always had a passion for helping people, and I thought politics was the way to do it. Over time, I realized that what really brought me joy was that moment when I could see that relief on a client’s face. When I could see the stress of a co-worker melt away because of an idea I had that could make their day run smoother. I found that helping people get more peace in their day was what was the most meaningful to me. Smooth operations are the key to that. So, I decided to leave that company and start a consulting firm. My firm’s primary focus is helping small businesses get the profits they want while maintaining the peace they need.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It’s been much smoother than I thought it would be. I was so nervous initially. Starting over can be so scary. Self-doubt creeps in, and you wonder to yourself, “Can I really do this?” But over time, you see that those worries aren’t real, and as long as you believe in yourself, as corny as it may sound, you really can achieve what you want.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about AJW Operations Consulting?
AJW Operations Consulting is a woman and minority-owned company that specializes in helping small businesses reach their full potential through streamlining business operations and implementing strategies that increase profits and save time. Inefficiencies cost companies 20-30 percent of their annual revenue. I’m here to help businesses have peace of mind and find the money they are leaving on the table.
I offer Operations Consulting, where I meet with clients on a weekly or biweekly basis and help them find the holes in their business and strategize ways to alleviate stress through streamlined and efficient systems.
I offer an Operations Intensive for clients who are looking to make major sweeping changes in their business. It’s a 4-step process that includes an Audit, Strategic Planning, Implementation and Off-Boarding. Auditing a business initially is the key to efficiency. It’s like being an ER doctor. Figuring out what’s wrong, why, how the problem got there, and using that data to create a more streamlined path forward for success. I’ve worked with dozens of small businesses and entrepreneurs and helped them find the money they were leaving on the table due to the inefficiencies in their business.
I also offer Virtual COO services. I will run the business’s day-to-day operations so the client doesn’t have to. I encourage clients to stop working in their business so they can start working on their business. My Virtual COO services help keep their business consistently streamlined, efficient, and profitable. Freeing up their time to focus on the most important aspects of their business.
