About
Sunday Roast Studio is a London-based consultancy, working worldwide with founders who think in high-level company direction.
We establish the internal logic that enables peace of mind, operational grace, and long-term legacy.
Our approach is direct. We set the direction and enforce the trade-offs. We interrogate until the essential truth emerges. We name the things being avoided. We don't just solve problems; we build structures designed to endure our eventual absence.
Our non-negotiables:
Clarity over comfort
Perspective over granularity
Respect for creative authorship
Stewardship, not dependency
Integrity without exception
A world where companies grow by design, not chance.
We are not for founders looking for motivation, validation or outsourced thinking. We are for those prepared to make definitive decisions and shape what happens next.
Clients choose us because they want fewer decisions, made with greater precision. They require an observer capable of seeing what they cannot.

Hello, I'm Nil Yabanli.
I'm a strategist with a particular fondness for Sundays and a personal lore that has become its own complex mythology. Nonetheless, the story goes like this.
I was born in Istanbul, educated in the French academic system, and trained in art design in Tokyo. Since 2011, I've followed a scent working in public relations, retail, hospitality, food and beverage, fashion, jewellery, specialty coffee, and events. I've built businesses from the ground up across several of these, designed products and systems, which means I understand the texture of founding, not just advising. This range is what allows Sunday Roast Studio to sit above function and view the entire ecosystem of a brand.
When not advising, I'm busy building my own ventures, which ensures my counsel remains grounded in reality rather than theory.
