You’ve opened your doors. You’ve tried things. You’re busy.But customer traction feels fragile — unpredictable, inconsistent, stressful.When customers slow down, everything feels exposed.Yes Ahead is for solo business owners in Lisbon who want to stop guessing and start moving forward — with clarity, support, and real momentum.
You try ideas because someone suggested them.You post, tweak, wait — and nothing changes.Customers don’t come back. Walk-ins are random.You don’t know what’s working or what to fix next.There’s no place to talk this through properly — only isolation, overthinking, and hoping the next month will be better.
Yes Ahead is a small, committed mastermind for Lisbon-based solo owners.Twice a month, you focus on what’s slowing your business down.You work through it with familiar faces who run businesses too — openly, honestly, without judgment.This isn’t networking.It’s collaboration with heart — and progress you can feel.
Your Yes Ahead membership:• We meet twice a month on Zoom for focused 2–3 hour sessions
• Each session centres on real business obstacles — not theory
• Honest feedback from peers and answers to questions you've always wanted to ask
• Accountability and communityEverything we share stays in the room.This gives you the chance to share problems and get things off your mind — safely.

I'm Thomas Pao. I’ve been a business owner for 15+ years and understand the highs, lows, and isolation it can bring. I previously ran this group in Berlin and have also co-hosted events for solo business owners.You’ll make progress every month — with people who actually want to see you succeed, and I'll be there to keep everyone connected.Membership is €75 per month + VAT. Founding members can secure their place today with 50% (€37).
Yes Ahead gives you space to think clearly again.To test ideas before trying them live.To learn why things didn’t work — and what to try next.You leave sessions lighter, sharper, and more confident.Not because someone told you what to do —but because you’re no longer carrying the weight alone.
Yes Ahead is capped at a limited number of members to protect trust, focus, and quality.If you run a service business in Lisbon and customer traction feels fragile, this is for you.Reserve your place: 50% / €37

"When looking for services, I pay attention to reliability, trust and the final result. Thomas was very easy to work with, attentive, professional and at the same welcoming from the beginning. These small details make a big difference." — Giulia Cappello, graphic designer"If you need someone to support your business, I would recommend Thomas to you. His approach is clearly structured, he knows what he is doing and you are being guided really well by his process. I always had the positive feeling that I am working with a friend." — Michael Mai, web agency owner“Thomas holds no punches in getting your goals into shape. He also constantly reassures you that these are his thoughts, and that I am free to control or execute them. This gave me options to choose from and was very much appreciated.” — Zell Liew, tech coach
