Building Better Business Stories

We started avahaaurarteus because too many brilliant business ideas get lost in poorly crafted presentations. Every company has a story worth telling – we help them tell it right.

How We Got Here

Back in 2019, I was sitting in yet another boardroom watching a CEO struggle through slides that made their groundbreaking product look boring. That's when it hit me – brilliant businesses were failing because their presentations weren't doing them justice.

What started as helping a few local startups in Leeds has grown into something much bigger. We've worked with everyone from tech companies preparing for Series A funding to established firms pitching to new markets.

"The best business presentation isn't about perfect slides. It's about connecting your audience with the real value you create."

What We Actually Do

Presentation Strategy

We help you figure out what story you're really telling and how to structure it so investors, clients, or stakeholders actually listen.

Financial Communication

Making complex financial data accessible and compelling. Because numbers tell stories too – when you know how to present them.

Stakeholder Engagement

Building presentations that create genuine connections with your audience, whether they're potential investors or long-term partners.

Real Results, Not Just Pretty Slides

We've seen too many presentation consultants who focus on making things look good without thinking about whether they actually work. Our approach is different – we start with your business goals and work backwards.

Whether you're raising funding, entering new markets, or just trying to communicate better with your board, we help you create presentations that move people to action. And yes, they look professional too.

Meet Our Team

Zendaya has spent the last six years helping businesses communicate better. She started her career in corporate finance, which gave her a deep understanding of what investors actually want to see in presentations.

What sets our team apart is that we've been on both sides of the table. We know what it's like to pitch for funding, present to skeptical boards, and explain complex business models to people who don't have all day to figure them out.

  • We believe clarity beats complexity every time
  • Real business value matters more than flashy design
  • Every presentation should serve a specific purpose
  • Honest communication builds lasting relationships

How We Work With You

Our process isn't complicated, but it is thorough. We take the time to understand your business before we start building anything.

Discovery & Goals

We start by understanding what you're trying to achieve. Who's your audience? What action do you want them to take? What obstacles have you faced before?

Content Strategy

Then we work on the story structure. What information does your audience need, in what order, to make the decision you want them to make?

Design & Refinement

Once the content strategy is solid, we create presentations that support your message instead of distracting from it.

Practice & Feedback

The best presentation in the world doesn't matter if you're not comfortable delivering it. We help you practice and refine your approach.
