Saul Rans

Director, The Strategy Builders

Saul Rans is a Director of The Strategy Builders, a boutique London-based advisory firm serving startups and small businesses. He founded the firm with his business partner earlier in 2023.
Previously, Saul spent 25 years in equity research analysing small, mid and large companies across multiple sectors, most recently at Morgan Stanley. He is also a Chartered Accountant and a graduate of Cambridge University.
The Strategy Builders provides advice across four pillars: business strategy, marketing strategy, financial control systems and productivity tools.
The firm aims to distinguish itself from other advisory firms in three ways: (1) Holistic: we build an all-round understanding of your business and your goals before designing advice (2) Listening: we listen to your needs and aspirations rather than imposing our own opinions (3) Bespoke: we provide advice tailored to your business – we never push copy-and-paste solutions.

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
