About ATP:
Ascent to Progress (ATP) is a free financial consultancy dedicated to empowering small business entrepreneurs. Whether you're launching a new venture or looking to expand, we work with you to identify areas of growth and strengthen your business. Our approach is inspired by microfinance—but instead of direct lending, we provide strategic guidance, networking opportunities, and access to financial resources. We meet with entrepreneurs, take a genuine interest in their businesses and lives, and stay committed to their success. For us, consultancy is more than advice—it’s a pathway to financial independence, confidence, and long-term wealth creation. Many entrepreneurs lack access to formal financial education, and that shouldn’t stop them from building something great.
ATP exists to bridge that gap.
Our Strategy
We empower small businesses through a three-pronged consulting strategy focused on innovation, marketing, and financial management. We help businesses stay competitive by fostering creative solutions, strengthening brand presence, and optimizing financial strategies for long-term sustainability. Combining these pillars, ATP equips entrepreneurs with the tools they need to adapt, grow, and thrive in an ever-changing market.
