What WE Consultants does

WE Consultants is a private strategic business consulting firm founded in 2021 and headquartered in North Carolina, USA. The firm specializes in international market entry advisory, business growth strategy, and startup advisory, with a stated focus on helping Latin American companies — particularly Brazilian firms — enter and scale in the North American market. The company operates with a lean team of 1-10 employees under founder and Business Strategist Adriano Schneider, who functions as the principal consultant and likely the central delivery asset.

The firm's offering is delivered through a professional services / consulting engagement model rather than a software product. Engagements appear to be project-based strategic work covering positioning, go-to-market planning, and growth execution for startup and growth-stage clients. Named client engagements include youRH (HR Tech), an International Trading Company (for which WE Consultants publicly claims a 517% revenue growth outcome, from $1.2M to $7.4M), a Health-Tech Sleep Tech firm, and a Brazilian Tech Company. The firm does not disclose a proprietary technology platform, AI/ML capability, or productized service offering, and no external funding rounds have been reported.

WE Consultants' go-to-market is primarily digital and founder-led, relying on LinkedIn outreach, Calendly-driven scheduling, and email communications for client acquisition. There is no evidence of a formal sales team, partnership channel, or referral network, which is consistent with a sub-10-person boutique advisory practice. The combination of a narrow cross-border corridor focus, a small named-client footprint, and reliance on the founder as the primary delivery and sales asset means the firm's capacity, revenue predictability, and competitive positioning are tightly coupled to its principal consultant.
