About Breton - Business advisor Waikato
Empowering Kiwi Businesses for Sustainable Growth
With over 25 years of hands-on business management experience (and 25 years before that building a successful career in marketing and brand communication), I’m passionate about helping small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across New Zealand unlock their full potential. I believe that every business, regardless of its size or stage, deserves the guidance and support needed to thrive, not just survive.
My Mission
Empowering Business Owners & Improving Business Performance
My mission is simple—empowering business owners to take control of their future and achieve a balance between business success and their personal and family lives. I understand that running a business is not just about profits; it's about creating a legacy, maintaining a healthy work-life balance, and building a team that shares your vision.
As a business owner myself, I know how challenging it can be to juggle every aspect of the business. That’s why I provide not only expert business advice but also a listening ear, someone who understands the emotional side of entrepreneurship. My goal is to be a trusted advisor and a true partner to you.

Business advisor Waikato

Meet the wise old owl
With a career spanning over 50 years, I have journeyed from marketing and brand communications to becoming an experienced business advisor.
While co-founding and building a successful retail franchise group along the way. My true passion now lies in giving back to the SME business community. Including those just starting out on their own business journey.
My counsel, often likened by clients and others to "speaking with a wise old owl," draws from observing and assessing, before imparting practical advice with an empathy beyond simply a client’s business. This analogy resonates deeply with me, reflecting my proactive, supportive and reassuring approach that leads to long-lasting and productive client relationships.
Outside of work, I find balance in playing golf, observing humanity, and staying current with global and local affairs. I also have a passion for history, both discovering and learning from it. My dedication to my clients' business and life aspirations remains as strong as ever. Their success is my success.
In partnership with
Since 2016, I’ve proudly partnered with Prime Strategies Group, a team founded on a genuine passion for helping small business owners succeed, where we not only advise but live the values of business success and work-life balance ourselves.
Breton's attention to detail and his ability to communicate succinctly has been very valuable. He has great knowledge and is very professional in all his activities with us. We have managed to achieve goals, which we have set with his help, which may not otherwise have been achievable.
Definitely an asset to our business.
