Real People, Real Results
We started flilunoviara because we kept seeing the same problem everywhere – business owners drowning in spreadsheets, making decisions with outdated information, and losing sleep over cash flow uncertainty.
The Problem Became Personal
After watching too many good businesses struggle with basic financial visibility, Celestine left her corporate role to focus on what actually matters – helping business owners understand where their money goes and why it matters. The initial goal was simple: make financial control accessible without the corporate overhead.
Testing What Works
The pandemic taught everyone about financial resilience the hard way. We spent two years working directly with Darwin businesses, learning what actually helps when cash gets tight. No theory here – just practical systems that work when everything else falls apart.
Building Something Better
Bronwyn joined the team, bringing her expertise in cash flow systems. Together, we refined our approach based on what we learned from working with over 200 businesses. The focus shifted from just providing reports to building genuine financial understanding.
What We Know Now
Seven years in, we understand that financial control isn't about perfect systems or complex software. It's about having clear information when you need to make decisions, understanding your numbers well enough to spot problems early, and having someone who can explain what the data actually means for your business.
How We Actually Work
Plain English Always
Financial jargon helps nobody make better decisions. We explain everything in terms that make sense for your business, not our industry. If you can't understand it, we haven't done our job properly.
Solutions That Stick
We build systems you'll actually use. No point creating beautiful reports that sit in email folders. Everything we do has to work with how you already run your business, not against it.
Long-Term Thinking
Quick fixes don't work in finance. We focus on building systems and understanding that improve over time. Our best clients are the ones we've worked with for years, watching their financial confidence grow.
Honest Assessment
Sometimes the answer is that you don't need our help, or that fixing the real problem requires changes you're not ready for. We'd rather tell you the truth up front than waste everyone's time.
The People Behind flilunoviara
We're not a massive firm with layers of hierarchy. Just two people who understand financial systems and enjoy helping businesses make sense of their numbers.
Celestine Ravenscroft
Principal Financial Strategist
Spent 15 years in corporate finance before realizing that most businesses need practical help, not complex theories. Has a talent for spotting cash flow problems before they become crises and explaining financial concepts without the usual jargon.
Bronwyn Ashworth-Clarke
Senior Financial Analyst
Brings deep expertise in building financial planning systems that actually get used. Previously worked with manufacturing and retail businesses, so understands the realities of inventory management, seasonal cash flow, and rapid growth challenges.
Our Methodology
Seven years of working with Australian businesses taught us that financial control comes down to three things: understanding what happened, seeing what's happening now, and having enough information to make good decisions about what comes next.
Current State Analysis
We start by understanding how money moves through your business right now. Not what the books say, but what actually happens when invoices get paid, expenses come due, and cash needs to be managed day-to-day.
System Design
Build reporting and monitoring systems that work with your existing processes. No point creating beautiful dashboards if they require data entry that never happens or reports nobody has time to read.
Implementation Support
Work alongside your team to make sure new systems actually get used. This means training, troubleshooting, and adjusting approaches based on what works in practice rather than theory.
Ongoing Partnership
Financial control improves over time as you learn what questions to ask and how to interpret what the numbers tell you. We stay involved for as long as it makes sense, adapting our support as your confidence and capabilities grow.
