A Personal Message from our Founder, Storm Aki
You won’t find me hiding in an office. I believe in being with my customers, right there in the trenches with them.
That philosophy has guided everything I do since founding Crowded Igloo in South Africa in 2011. We began as a specialist software development company, creating tailored solutions that saves owners in trades, facilities management, engineering services, and light manufacturing from operational chaos – so you gain complete visibility, eliminate costly downtime, and maximise asset performance and return on investment throughout every lifecycle.
Our core platform – still the heartbeat of everything we deliver today – empowers you to manage your entire operation from any device, anywhere, with real-time metrics, automated workflows, and a refined interface that boosts team productivity and lets you focus on growth rather than firefighting daily issues – that has earned us long-term partnerships across businesses of all sizes.
In 2021, we began expanding to the United Kingdom to better support ambitious UK businesses just like yours.
Through years of close collaboration with clients, one truth became unmistakable: even the most efficient operations struggle without a steady pipeline of high-value customers. Every owner we spoke to shared the same frustrations we had experienced – the feast-or-famine cycle, unpredictable cash flow, and wasted effort chasing inconsistent enquiries.
That realisation drove us to expand our integrated platform. We added proven inbound lead generation (using psychographic targeting and self-qualification) to deliver a consistent flow of ready-to-buy prospects, plus trust-based sales training that helps you close higher-value contracts at premium prices with far less resistance.
The result is the complete attract-win-manage-grow system you see today – built on our battle-tested software core and now enhanced to give you predictable revenue, smoother cash flow, higher margins, and the freedom to build the stable, profitable business you deserve.
I’m personally involved every step of the way, especially during your critical first 60 days. I will be the architect of your success, working directly with you to ensure rapid implementation and measurable results from month one.
This hands-on commitment is why we intentionally onboard only 4 new clients at a time – so you receive the focused attention required to deliver the guaranteed 5–12× ROI.
My own journey taught me the hard way: I wasted over £500,000 on ineffective marketing that delivered nothing… in one year alone. That painful lesson became my vow – to ensure no other dedicated business owner endures the same strain on their business, their team, or their family.
Here’s to your success!
