Why Maju Teguh
What you gain from working with an unhurried advisor
Small business consulting that's shaped around your pace, your decisions, and the practical realities of running an owner-managed business in Malaysia.
At a Glance
Six reasons owners work with us
A written summary every time
Every session ends with a short written note you keep. Your thinking doesn't evaporate at the end of the meeting.
Flat fees in Ringgit Malaysia
Prices are stated in full before any engagement begins. No variable billing, no hidden additions.
Your decision, always
We present options and considerations. We don't push you toward any particular path — that judgement stays with you.
Grounded in Malaysian context
We understand supplier dynamics, local SME structures, and the practical constraints of running a small business in Selangor and the Klang Valley.
Sessions given proper time
We don't rush through a list. Each session is given space for real thinking, and we follow the conversation where it needs to go.
Confidentiality as standard
Everything you share is handled with discretion. A confidentiality statement is part of every engagement from the start.
Professional Expertise
Experience with owner-managed businesses
Our principal consultant has spent over fifteen years working with small and medium businesses across Malaysia — not in an academic or theoretical capacity, but in the day-to-day reality of decisions, constraints, and trade-offs that owner-managers face.
That background means sessions tend to cover the practical territory that matters, rather than dwelling on frameworks that look tidy on paper but don't translate to a business with six staff and a lease that's up for renewal.

Client Service
Accessible and responsive
We keep the process straightforward. You get in touch, we respond within a day, and we arrange a session at a time and place that suits you. For clients on the Progress Partnership, between-session questions can be sent by email and will receive a considered reply.
We work in English and Bahasa Malaysia and are familiar with running sessions in whichever language the client is more comfortable with.
Value and Pricing
Priced for small businesses, not large ones
Our three services are priced at RM 350, RM 830, and RM 1,570 per month respectively. These are flat fees — not hourly rates that accumulate unexpectedly, and not percentage-of-savings arrangements that make our interests different from yours.
The pricing is designed to be within reach for businesses that are still building their financial footing, while reflecting the time and care that goes into each engagement.
What each price includes
-
RM 350 — Next Step Review
One session + short written overview -
RM 830 — Supplier & Cost Review
Two sessions + written summary of findings -
RM 1,570/month — Progress Partnership
Monthly meetings + quarterly summaries + email support

What Sets Us Apart
Features you won't find everywhere
The written summary guarantee
We do not consider a session complete until the written overview is in your hands. This discipline keeps us accountable and gives you a tangible record of what was covered and what options were identified.
An advisor who doesn't need your work to continue
Because we charge a flat fee rather than hourly, we have no financial reason to extend an engagement beyond what is useful. If a shorter interaction would serve you better, we'll say so.
Context-specific, not template-based
We don't apply the same framework to every business. We start by understanding your specific situation — your industry, your relationships, your constraints — before any view is offered.
Bilingual advisory in Selangor
Sessions can be conducted in English or Bahasa Malaysia, or a mix of both — whichever allows the owner to think and communicate most clearly. We don't impose a language on the conversation.
