## Key pages
- [Home](https://victoriabusiness.ca/): VictoriaBusiness.ca helps owner-run companies across the capital region decide what to grow, where to spend on marketing and how to run the work so more of each dollar stays in the business.
- [Services](https://victoriabusiness.ca/services/): Pick the service that matches the question you are stuck on. Most owners start with one defined piece of work, then keep a monthly session once the first decision is made.
- [Areas](https://victoriabusiness.ca/areas/): We advise owners in all 13 municipalities and three electoral areas of the Capital Regional District, and we plan around the real differences between them: travel time, customer mix and seasonal demand.
- [About](https://victoriabusiness.ca/about/): VictoriaBusiness.ca is a Canadian business consulting service for Greater Victoria owners, led by Ali Sedighi, MBA, and part of the Sedighi.ca and SAZ.ca group of companies headquartered in Vancouver, BC.
- [Results](https://victoriabusiness.ca/results/): Our case studies are results from our HVAC work with Canadian heating companies. They are not Victoria retail, trades or hospitality results, but the planning and tracking methods behind them carry over.
- [Pricing](https://victoriabusiness.ca/pricing/): Consulting starts at $175 an hour, projects at $3,500 and retainers at $2,500 a month, in Canadian dollars with 5% GST added for BC clients. Your first 30-minute consultation is free.
- [FAQ](https://victoriabusiness.ca/faq/): Short, direct answers about cost, contracts, timing, ownership, reporting and results, written for owners who have been burned before and want to know exactly what they are buying.
- [Contact](https://victoriabusiness.ca/contact/): Call, text or email Ali Sedighi, MBA, at (604) 632-4959 or Ali@Sedighi.ca. Office hours: Mon–Fri 9–6 Pacific. We usually reply within one business day.

## Services
- [Advisory sessions](https://victoriabusiness.ca/services/advisory-sessions/): Owner advisory sessions give you time with Ali Sedighi, MBA, for decisions that can't wait for a full project, and each one ends with a short written note of what was agreed.
- [Growth plan](https://victoriabusiness.ca/services/growth-plan/): We rank what you sell, who buys it and where in the capital region it pays best, then turn the top choices into quarterly targets and a scorecard you can keep yourself.
- [Marketing strategy](https://victoriabusiness.ca/services/marketing-strategy/): We line up every marketing cost against the enquiries and paying customers it produced, then write a plain plan for where the next year's budget should go.
- [Operations review](https://victoriabusiness.ca/services/operations-review/): We trace a sample of real jobs or orders through your business, time each hand-off, and give you a ranked list of fixes with the hours and cash each one should free up.
- [Seasonal planning](https://victoriabusiness.ca/services/seasonal-planning/): We build a month-by-month model of your revenue, payroll and spending so you can see your lowest cash point ahead of time and decide when to hire, save or promote.

## Coverage

## Guides and articles
- [Guides](https://victoriabusiness.ca/guides/): Three practical guides with worked numbers: how to draft a one-page growth plan, how to set a marketing budget from your own figures, and how to decide how far across the region to serve.
- [Service-area guide](https://victoriabusiness.ca/guides/expanding-across-greater-victoria/): Work out what an hour of travel really costs you, decide which areas to serve at standard price, which to serve on set days or with a travel charge, and when a second base starts to pay.
- [Marketing budget](https://victoriabusiness.ca/guides/marketing-budget-from-your-numbers/): Start with the revenue you want, divide by your average sale and close rate to find the enquiries you need, then decide what you can afford to pay for each one. The budget follows from that.
- [One-page growth plan](https://victoriabusiness.ca/guides/one-page-growth-plan/): Rank your work by margin per labour hour, pick three targets, write down what you will stop doing, and track six numbers monthly. That is a growth plan you will actually use.
