Who we are *

Avenor Solutions is owned and run by Steven Short, a qualified accountant with 40 years of financial management experience, working with hundreds of SMEs.

He understands how frustrating it can be for small business owners to waste hours struggling with spreadsheets and paying high fees for software that doesn’t quite fit. This led him to create Avenor Excel Templates. These are practical, professional tools designed specifically for SMEs.

Each template is built with:

  • Clarity: Easy to use, not clutter or confusion

  • Accuracy: Formulas and dashboards you can rely on

  • Professional design: Board-ready reports at a click of a button

Whether you need to manage risk, create accounting or HR reports, create a dynamic dashboard, or plan ahead with confidence, Avenor’s templates are designed to save you time and help your business grow.

How we Work

A hand carefully balancing a stack of smooth stones on a white surface, symbolizing stability, focus, and mindful precision.

Our Approach

At Avenor Solutions, we help SMEs bring clarity, structure, and confidence to the everyday running of their businesses.

From HR administration and compliance to operational systems and processes, we support business owners who want things to work properly — without unnecessary complexity or overwhelm.

We believe that well-designed systems should make business feel lighter, not heavier.

At Avenor, we help SMEs:

  • simplify complex processes

  • stay compliant without chaos

  • reduce risk and admin overload

  • and build clear, repeatable ways of working

To reflect this way of thinking visually, we introduced Byte and Pixel

They are not mascots in the traditional sense, but visual representations of how we approach business.

  • Byte represents calm, structured thinking and clarity in complexity.

  • Pixel represents precision, insight, and the ability to make complex things beautifully simple.

You’ll see them appear across our content, tools, and resources as gentle reminders of what we stand for.

Why This Matters

When systems are clear, businesses feel steadier.

  • Decisions become easier

  • Compliance feels manageable

  • Teams work with more confidence

Our role is to help SMEs create that sense of stability ; quietly, thoughtfully, and effectively.
