Expert Help for the Challenges Holding Your Business Back

Every engagement is built around your specific situation: no templates, no generic advice. If you're asking any of these questions, you're in the right place:

  • "How do I grow my revenue without burning out my team?"
  • "Why do I keep running out of cash even when business is good?"
  • "How do I make my operations more efficient and stop putting out fires?"
  • "Can AI actually save me time and money, and how do I get started?"

Business Strategy & Growth

Not sure which direction to take your business next, or how to stand out from the competition? We help small business owners build a clear, actionable growth strategy and a real plan to execute it.

  • Business growth planning and revenue strategy
  • Competitive analysis and market positioning
  • Go-to-market strategy for new products or services
  • Evaluating acquisitions, partnerships, or new business lines
  • Scaling from six figures to seven and beyond

Financial Modeling & Capital Advisory

We take the mystery out of your numbers. Whether you need to improve cash flow, raise capital, secure a business loan, or just understand your financial health, we build the models and tell the story that gets results.

  • Cash flow forecasting and cash flow management
  • Financial modeling and business financial planning
  • Capital raising, business loans, and investor readiness
  • Investor pitch materials and financial presentations
  • Profit margin analysis and revenue optimization

Operations & Business Efficiency

You didn't start your business to spend all day putting out fires. We find what's slowing you down and where overhead and margin leaks are coming from, then build leaner, more profitable operations.

  • Business process improvement and workflow optimization
  • Cost reduction and overhead management
  • Scaling your business without scaling your headaches
  • Vendor and supply chain cost optimization
  • Building systems so the business runs without you in every room

AI & Business Automation

Most small business owners are spending hours every week on tasks a computer could handle. We identify where AI automation creates the most value for your business, implement the right tools, and make sure your team can actually use them.

  • AI readiness assessment for small and medium-sized businesses
  • Automating repetitive, administrative, and manual tasks
  • AI tool selection, setup, and team training
  • Reducing administrative overhead and labor costs
  • Gaining a competitive edge before your rivals catch on

About the Founder

Wall Street Discipline.
Small Business Heart.

Alex Vlamis, CFA founded Kriton Advisors to give small and medium-sized businesses direct access to the same caliber of financial and strategic advice that powers Wall Street's largest institutions.

Alex spent 17+ years working in financial services, most recently as a senior investment banker, where he led structuring, planning, and execution for over $5 billion in capital projects. Earlier in his career, he served as a strategic advisor and consultant to state and local governments, helping design affordable housing programs across the country, and built large-scale financial data systems at a large investment bank.

He holds an MBA with dual concentrations in Quantitative Finance and Financial Instruments & Markets from NYU Stern, a BA in Mathematics from Northeastern University, and is a Chartered Financial Analyst. What drew him to this work, though, goes much deeper than any degree or designation.

Alex's grandfather immigrated from Greece and built his life around a diner, a small business that fed a community and raised a family. His father carried that entrepreneurial spirit forward as a freelance writer, helping small businesses tell their story. Growing up surrounded by people who bet on themselves, Alex knows firsthand the courage it takes to own and run a business, and how much the right advice at the right moment can change everything. That is why he does this work: to help small business owners reach their potential.
