The Flywheel – How we work

Most SMEs in Africa struggle to raise capital—not because they lack potential, but because their business story isn’t visible to investors.

Testimonials

Through peer-to-peer sessions and one-on-one coaching, I gained valuable insights into tracking inventory effectively. I’m now building scalable systems that go beyond survival, positioning my business for sustainable growth and efficiency.

Financial discipline became a key focus for me. By separating personal and business finances, and improving my transaction tracking, I’ve seen significant improvements in cash flow management. This new level of discipline not only enhanced my financial operations but gave me the confidence to scale my business and think bigger.

With support from mentors, I digitalized our production and sales records, refined our business story, and developed collaborations with farmers to scale production. I’m already implementing these strategies to address bottlenecks, and they’re already making a tangible difference in how we operate.

Before, I felt stuck and overwhelmed by the financial side of my business. I had the vision, but lacked the structure and insightsto scale effectively. Through the guidance I received, I gained clarity on breaking down complex business challenges, learned how to position myself as a brand that resonates with customers, and discovered new ways to innovate and solve supply chain issues.

The current system wasn’t built for African SMEs. It’s slow, paperwork-heavy, and disconnected from how you actually run your business.

Banks ask for polished financials. Investors ask for 3-year projections. But most entrepreneurs are busy producing, selling, delivering, and figuring it out along the way.

We believe growth shouldn't require perfect spreadsheets—it should come from real activity, made visible.

We believe MSMEs are the backbone of sustainable economies. Therefore we are building a global ecosystem to equip them with the skills, resources and assets they need to thrive and scale.

Because their success, drives change.

About BoC

At Blocks of Change, we’re a team of passionate ecosystem developers with diverse backgrounds from both Africa and Germany. Many of us are former founders or have worked closely with visionary entrepreneurs. We’ve seen how mentorship, tools, and networks can unlock growth. But realizing that in Africa, so many entrepreneurs were working with half the resources, despite having twice the talent. We know that had to change.The difference isn’t talent—it’s access to strategies, networks, and capital.

That’s why we founded 54scales and Blocks of Change. Having experienced both sides of the river, we know that when African SMEs are equipped with the right tools, they don’t just compete—they dominate.

Our mission is simple: Empower visionary African founders to scale their businesses into the giants of tomorrow.

Your business isn’t just another venture—it’s the start of Africa’s next success story. Let’s build it together.
