Our Services

Individuals we equip. Entrepreneurs we empower. Our vision has always named two kinds of client, and we have built a division for each. One business, two divisions, one promise.

The Corporate Division gives you your week back, and runs your operations properly.

  • Executive Assistant Services
  • Personal Assistant Services
  • Property Management Services
  • Recruitment Services
  • Accounting, Bookkeeping & Payroll Services

The Creative Division builds a premium position in your market, made to be handed over and kept running.

  • Branding & Graphic Design Services
  • Website Development Services
  • Communication & Social Media Services
  • Videography & Editing Services

Most clients start with one division and end up using both.

ABOUT US

 

Coco Corporate was developed to help solve the never ending struggle of not having enough hours in the day. Business owners, of both established and start- up companies, can easily find themselves caught up in the urgent matters, while the important ones remain at bay. However, the investment cost of full-time employees doesn’t seem to solve the problem.

We decided to create something new with a specific goal in mind: to develop a complete solution where all lifestyle, corporate and creative needs are met.

The function in between

Every founder-led business hits the same two walls, usually at the same time. There are not enough hours in the day, and the marketing still depends on the founder personally. The work that would fix either one is exactly the work there is no time to do.

Hiring for it is premature. A freelancer buys hands, not a system. An agency buys a plan you then have to run yourself. Coco Corporate is the function in between, and we run it as two divisions. We set the system up, we run it, and we document it as we go so it can be handed over.

Three things we can evidence on request

01. We build it to be handed over.

Every engagement ships with a service level agreement, a written operating manual, training and a handover. The test of our work is that you could replace us and nothing would break.

02. We will talk you out of it.

On a live engagement we recommended a certified platform at a fraction of the cost of the custom build the client had budgeted for. It reduced our own scope. It was still the right answer.

03. Two divisions, one accountable team.

Named people, weekly time reports and a monthly portfolio report. When the other half of your business becomes the bottleneck, you are not starting a new supplier relationship to fix it.

Who we work with, and who we do not

FOR

Founder-led businesses and the people who run them. Past the point of doing it themselves, not yet at the point where a full-time hire is justified. Twenty-one industries so far, because the pattern is stage, not sector.

NOT FOR

Businesses that already have the function in-house; anyone shopping purely on hourly rate; anyone who has the thinking handled and wants a pair of hands. Saying this out loud is what makes the rest credible.

Questions founders ask us

What does Coco Corporate do?
Coco Corporate is a Cape Town firm with two divisions: Corporate, which gives founders their week back through executive support, property, recruitment and accounting; and Creative, which builds their position in the market through brand, websites, content and video.

Who is Coco Corporate for?
Founder-led businesses and the people who run them. Past the point of doing it themselves, not yet at the point where a full-time hire is justified. We have worked across twenty-one industries, because the pattern is stage, not sector.

Why not hire a full-time person instead?
Hiring for it is often premature. A freelancer buys hands, not a system. An agency buys a plan you then have to run yourself. We are the function in between: we set the system up, run it, and document it so it can be handed over when you are ready to hire.

Can I use both divisions?
Yes. Most clients start with one division and end up using both, and both are run by one accountable team, so you are not starting a new supplier relationship when the other half of your business becomes the bottleneck.

Where are you based?
Our office is on Floor 1, The Business Exchange, 3 Dock Road, V&A Waterfront, Cape Town. We support clients in person in Cape Town and remotely elsewhere.
