THE PROBLEM: The Ugly Truth About Investing in Indonesia (That No Government Website Will Tell You)

Indonesia is the world’s 4th largest population and a G20 economy. The opportunity is massive.

But here’s what destroys foreign investors:

  • “Ghost Companies” – Businesses that look profitable on paper but are hollow inside
  • “Friendly Partners” who vanish with your capital
  • Permits that mysteriously stall unless you know who to call
  • Due diligence reports that miss the real problems buried in the culture
  • Post-acquisition chaos when the “loyal” team suddenly quits
  • Regulations that change without warning or logic

Most global investors fail here not because of a bad product, but because of Execution Failure.

You don’t need a fancy report. You don’t need a seminar.

You need a General on the ground.

THE OFFER: Two Ways I Can Help You Win in Indonesia

TRACK A: GREENFIELD ENTRY (Building from Scratch)

You have a vision. I make it operational.
  • Zero-to-One Execution: I handle all licensing, incorporation, and government relations.
  • Organizational Design: Lean, Agile, Digital, Low cost high-output
  • Talent Architecture: I recruit and train a “Special Forces” team. I keep headcount low and output high using Meritocracy Management, AND Industry 4.0 relevant elements.
  • Automated Systems: Implementation of Industry 4.0 operational structures ensuring you can monitor the business from London, New York, Sydney, or Dubai in real-time.
  • Launch your Sales & Marketing: Multi-channel, Locally optimized, Global Competence
  • The Handover: I run the ship. I train your replacement. I hand over the keys only when the engine is purring.

Timeline: 6 months to operational; to build a factory from scratch takes longer.
Your Role: Approve. Fund. Receive reports. Make decisions.
My Role: Execute everything on the ground.

 

TRACK B: M&A TURNAROUND (Acquisition)

You want to buy. I make sure you don’t buy a disaster.
  • Target Identification: Based on YOUR criteria
  • Initial Screening: I talk to owners before you waste time
  • Negotiation Support: I know local tactics
  • Forensic Due Diligence: Financial statements can lie. Operational realities do not. I go physically on-site to expose hidden debts, labor issues, “skeleton” assets, AND cultural
  • Ruthless Valuation: We determine the price based on actual value, not the seller’s fantasy.
  • Post-acquisition Turnaround: The most dangerous phase. I implement immediate “Low Cost, High Output” restructuring to stop the bleeding and maximize EBITDA. Uncover what was hidden AFTER the deal. Keep the good, remove the rot
  • Meritocracy Implementation for Culture Reset: I filter the existing workforce. Only the performers stay.

Timeline: 6-12 months to stabilized, profitable operations
Your Role: Make final decisions on price and contracts. Fund
My Role: Everything else.

FAQ: Questions Smart Investors Ask

Q: Why should I trust someone I’ve never met?

A: I’ve worked with CEOs of Fortune 500 subsidiaries in Indonesia. My reputation is my business. One scam, and I’m finished. I have 28 years invested in being trustworthy.

Q: How much does this cost?

A: It depends on scope. My standard rate is $20,000/day or $3,000/hour. But for Fractional CEO & Strategic Proxy assignments, we negotiate based on complexity and duration. Let’s discuss your specific needs first.

My personal note:

If I feel comfortable with you and am optimistic about your assignment, then I am willing to make a special arrangement for you:

Fractional CEO – Build Track: 6-month minimum engagement.
  • Monthly Retainer Fee $12,500 – $25,000/month, based on scope
  • + 3 Months Fee Success-linked Bonus upon operational launch, and handover of company operations to the person you appoint.

Fractional CEO – Acquisition & Turnaround Track: 6-month minimum engagement.

  • Monthly Retainer Fee $12,500 – $25,000/month, based on scope
  • + 3% to 5% Success Fee for successful legal and operational acquisition
  • + 10% to 20% Success Fee of acquired EBITDA improvement post-acquisition performance milestones for the next 12 months. The specific percentage can depend on several factors, including the project’s complexity, and the amount of money saved

“All operational budgets are proposed by me, negotiated and approved directly by you with vendors, and managed through your transparent dashboard. My incentive is your success.”

 

Q: What if my business fails anyway?

A: Business has risks. But with proper due diligence, the right structure, and local expertise, we dramatically reduce preventable failures. Most failures happen because Investors DIDN’T have someone like me.

Q: Can I start with something smaller before committing to a full engagement?

A: Absolutely. I offer a Strategic Assessment Engagement – a focused, professional analysis of your specific Indonesia opportunity.

  • For Market Entry “Indonesia Market Entry Viability Assessment” : I assess regulatory feasibility, market opportunity, realistic costs, timeline, key risks, and provide a clear Go/No-Go recommendation.
  • For Acquisitions “Indonesia Acquisition Target Pre-Assessment” : I evaluate your target against your criteria, identify preliminary red flags, estimate valuation range, and map out what due diligence would be required.

 

Deliverable: A comprehensive written report (15-25 pages) plus a 2 hours consultation call to discuss findings.

Investment: Starting from US$5,000 to US$10,000

This allows you to experience my work quality and judgment before committing to a larger engagement. Many clients use this as their first step.

JOHANES LIM’S FINAL WORDS:

I’m not interested in simply being a consultant for you offering business advice, as you can find that anywhere.

If it’s just business advice, even a free AI can provide suggestions that most regular consultants can’t think of.

Johanes Lim not only wants to provide solutions for you, but wants to BE THE SOLUTION FOR YOU:

  1. The Insider Your Proxy (not just another consultant, but someone who is YOU when YOU can’t be there)
  2. The Protector (against Indonesia’s hidden dangers)
  3. The Executor (not just advice -full implementation for Sovereignty & Speed)
