Services
Six services. One team that knows how they connect.
Use one, or let us look after the whole stack. Every engagement starts with a free 30-minute call and a written scope.
01 · Data engineering and dashboards
Work that ends with a decision, not a deck.
Your numbers in one trusted place, and Power BI or Excel reports people actually use.
Data engineering
- System integration and scheduled ETL
- Migration and consolidation between platforms
- Database and warehouse design, SQL Server and MySQL
- Data quality rules, reconciliation and exception reports
Dashboards
- Power BI reports, datasets and workspaces
- Excel dashboards for teams not yet on Power BI
- Star-schema models, so totals are right under any filter
- Scheduled refresh, gateways and row-level security
Mining and analysis
- Customer and product segmentation
- Trend, seasonality and anomaly detection
- Variance, cohort and profitability analysis
- Plain-language write-ups for boards, and second opinions on numbers
Sounds familiar?
- Month-end takes a week of copying between spreadsheets
- Two reports show two different totals
- You suspect something is in the data but cannot name it yet
The first step
We look at where your numbers come from and what decision the report has to support, then propose the smallest build that does it.
You end up with: A report that refreshes itself, with totals the whole team trusts.

- Files and reports deleted after 7 days
- Book a sit-down with a LaMotheo analyst, or ask for custom work
Sounds familiar?
- You have a sales, stock, fees or payroll export and no time to dig into it
- You want a second look at the numbers before a meeting
- A full dashboard project feels like too much for now
The first step
Open a sample report with no sign-up, then upload your own file. You see data health, headline numbers, the trend and your top performers for free, and pay only if you want the full report.
You end up with: A plain-language report on your own numbers the same day, without hiring anyone.
03 · Excel, Power BI and AI training
The part that makes the rest stick.
Small live classes and self-paced lessons that stick, from first formula to data models and AI at work.
Live classes
- Excel: Novice, Intermediate, Advanced
- Power BI: Novice, Intermediate, Advanced
- Twelve seats at most; the list closes when full and a waiting list takes over
- In Roodepoort or live online
Self-paced
- AI for Business: 24 short lessons, the first four free
- A quick check after each lesson
- Certificates with a code anyone can verify
- The LaMotheo Training app, with lessons offline
For your team
- Private classes for six or more, on-site in Gauteng or online
- Your own files and reports as the exercises
- Course group chat for questions after class
- Free workshops for qualified graduates, listed on the schedule
Sounds familiar?
- Your team avoids reports, or rebuilds the same one every month
- People are using AI tools without guidance
- You have new starters who need Excel basics fast
The first step
Pick a scheduled class, start the free lessons, or ask for a private class built on your own files.
You end up with: People who build their own reports instead of waiting for one.
04 · Microsoft 365 licence administration
Pay for the licences you use, and know who has what.
The right licences for each person, nobody paying for empty seats, and staff set up on day one.
Licences
- Choosing plans per person: Business Basic, Standard, Premium, E-plans and add-ons
- Buying, assigning and renewing
- Regular reviews to remove unused seats
- One clear list of who has what
People
- New starters ready on day one: account, mailbox, Teams, licences
- Leavers handled: access removed, mail kept or forwarded, licence reclaimed
- Shared mailboxes, distribution lists and calendars
- Password resets and sign-in help
Set-up and security
- Multi-factor sign-in and sensible admin roles
- Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive structure
- Email moves to Exchange Online from Gmail or cPanel
- Domains connected and verified in Microsoft 365
Sounds familiar?
- Nobody is sure how many licences you pay for, or who has them
- People who left still have mailboxes and licences
- Staff share passwords or have no multi-factor sign-in
The first step
A licence review: we list every user, licence and mailbox against your staff list and show what can be removed, downgraded or tidied.
You end up with: A clean tenant, a licence list that matches your staff list, and a smaller bill.
05 · Domain management
Your name on the internet, looked after.
Your web address and business email registered, renewed on time and pointed at the right place.
Registration
- New .co.za, .com, .africa and other domains
- Registered in your company's name, not ours
- Transfers between registrars without downtime
- Renewals tracked so nothing lapses
DNS
- Records for your website, Microsoft 365 and other services
- Clean-up of old and conflicting records
- Changes made carefully, with a note of what changed
- Sub-domains for systems like billing and training
Email delivery
- SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up and checked
- Fixing mail that lands in spam
- SSL certificates for websites
- Coordination with your web host
Sounds familiar?
- Your domain is registered in someone else's name or account
- A renewal reminder went to an old email address
- Your emails land in customers' spam folders
The first step
A domain check: who owns each domain, where it is registered, when it renews, and whether your email records are set up properly.
You end up with: One person who knows where your domains are, and email that arrives.
06 · General IT services
IT that runs quietly in the background.
Day-to-day IT handled: laptops, networks, backups, security and a person to call when something breaks.
Support

- Laptops and desktops set up, updated and protected
- Printers, scanners and peripherals

Network
- Office network and Wi-Fi set-up

Sounds familiar?
- Your "IT person" is whoever is least busy
- Nobody has tested whether the backups can be restored
- New laptops take days to get ready
The first step
An IT check-up: devices, network, backups and security, written up as a short list of what to fix first.
You end up with: IT that runs quietly in the background, so your team can work.
Not sure which of these you need?
Describe the problem. We will tell you what it usually turns out to be, and whether it is worth paying someone to fix.
