Hire the Best Consultants in Cape Town, ZA

Hi, I’m Robin. ▪️ Award winning brand strategist and marketeer ▪️ MBA from Brunel University ▪️30+ years in marketing and consulting ▪️Helping businesses and independent professionals create brands with substance. Brand strategy is positioning, not logos, colors, typography, and design. Individuals and businesses come to me to define and articulate the core DNA and identity of their brands. Only once positioning is clear, can we translate that into a clear visual identity and relevant marketing, messaging, and content strategies. Without clear brand positioning, businesses struggle to differentiate themselves. Marketing is fractured and inconsistent, messaging is off the mark, and the consumer is left with more questions than answers about your brand. By analyzing your competitors and defining your audience segments, I’ll help you build a differentiated strategic foundation, sharpen your positioning, voice, and value proposition, and create clarity across every customer touchpoint. My approach blends decades of proven thinking and practical experience with modern technologies to balance strategic rigor and logic with commercial grounded creative thinking and ideas. My experience comes from working on global and local brands across a broad range of industries including personal brands, automotive, technology, retail, healthcare, media, consulting, engineering, financial services, energy, real estate, professional services, nutrition, and distribution. I’ve worked with Upwork clients in the US, Canada, Uruguay, UK, Dubai, Netherlands, India, and South Africa.

I help dietary supplement and functional food brands get FDA and EFSA compliant faster, and without the reformulation surprises. As a food scientist, MSc graduate, and active PhD researcher, I review supplement labels, formulation documentation, structure/function claims, and Supplement Facts panels at the intersection of science and regulatory law. Most compliance failures I see come from one place. The label, formulation, and claims were never reviewed together. A panel that looks correct fails when cross-checked against the ingredient COA. A claim that clears FDA triggers an EFSA upper limit. I catch these before they reach manufacturing, Amazon review, or retailer QA.I help dietary supplement and functional food brands identify and correct regulatory, labelling, and product formulation risks before submission, manufacturing, or retail review. My work supports Product Development across Food & Supplements and Food & Beverage categories, with a focus on FDA and EFSA regulated products. My reviews typically cover: - Product formulation and ingredient verification in terms of GRAS status, dosage justification, safety limits, stability considerations - Label compliance and claims review reviewing Supplement Facts or Nutrition Panels, structure/function claims, FDA and EFSA wording - Food science, chemistry, and food engineering alignment to help determine shelf-life logic, nutrient integrity, formulation feasibility. - Technical documentation and traceability including COAs, ingredient sourcing records, substantiation summaries, QA documentation - Product and recipe development support to support formulation refinement, nutrition alignment, and early stage risk screening for new or revised products. Each engagement follows a structured, scientific, and regulatory evidence-based process. Findings are documented with clear regulatory rationale and practical correction steps, allowing teams to move forward efficiently and with confidence. Most of my clients use my findings to: - Finalize FDA-compliant labels with minimal or no revision - Clear internal Quality Assurance, regulatory, and retail compliance checks - Support investor, auditor, or partner review during product development or scale-up Here is what previous clients have said: “Sihle went above and beyond to resolve our isomalt cooking and storage issue. The solution was practical, technically sound, and delivered quickly.” “Her label compliance review was detailed and well-explained. Each recommendation was supported by regulatory reasoning, and all questions were addressed clearly. Highly recommend.” I offer targeted compliance reviews, including a 24-hour Compliance Snapshot that identifies high-risk regulatory, formulation, or labelling gaps and provides clear guidance for corrections before launch or submission. If you need a decisive compliance assessment grounded in food science, chemistry, and FDA requirements with documentation you can confidently defend, feel free to reach out and let’s review your product before it becomes a problem...

Hi there, Thank you for stopping by my profile! I’m Zabe, an Operations and Client Experience Lead who builds structure behind how teams serve, retain, and grow their clients. My background combines client success, systems design, and leadership across SaaS, fintech, and marketing environments, helping teams move from reactive to organized, and from busy to truly effective. I’ve single handedly built entire support and operations departments from scratch, consolidating communication, automations, and reporting into unified CRMs such as (but not limited to) HubSpot, Zendesk, and GoHighLevel. I’ve designed workflows that guide clients from sales handoff to onboarding, retention, and renewal with clear accountability at every stage. My work often extends into training and management: hiring and mentoring teams, writing SOPs, and building dashboards & KPI frameworks that make performance measurable and transparent. I’ve collaborated directly with leadership to identify inefficiencies, improve retention, and create systems that give clients a better experience while giving teams more clarity. I simultaneously work in client growth and have a background in sales which is experience that has taught me how to listen, communicate, and design processes that actually align with what clients value most. That mix of empathy and structure still guides how I build systems today. I enjoy building things that last , operations that make sense, communication that feels human, and systems that scale without losing quality. If you’re looking for someone who brings both structure and empathy to client operations, I’d love to connect. Best, Zabe
