ONE PARTNER. ALL THE PIECES.
You’re the expert
in your field. The business around it? That’s my wheelhouse.
Building a successful business means making decisions about positioning, operations, finance, customers, marketing, public relations, and new technologies. You don’t need to be an expert in all of them.
Business Advisory
You don’t know what you don’t know. And that can be costly.
More advice is rarely the missing piece. Seeing how the whole business fits together is.
I assess what is working, what is getting in the way, and what is missing. Then I set priorities, develop the strategy, and stay involved through implementation.
For more than 35 years, I’ve built, strengthened, and grown businesses across industries, cultures, functions, and sales channels. I bring the strategic thinking large organizations hire consulting firms for, adapted to the priorities and resources of smaller businesses.
My job is to spot gaps, identify traps, find hidden potential, and remove roadblocks so you can spend more time doing what you do best.
What changes when the pieces work together?
Operations
A business that runs like clockwork.
Connected systems and processes that save time and money.
Reputation
A presence that makes sense.
A credible, memorable business across every public touchpoint.
Growth
More ways to generate revenue.
New audiences, additional markets, and overlooked up-selling and cross-selling opportunities.
THREE STARTING POINTS
What does your business need now?
01
Tap My Brain
A question. A decision. A roadblock.
Sometimes you need an independent sounding board. Sometimes you need someone who sees what you don’t. Often, you need both. Choose a Deep Dive, Spot Treatment, or Regular Weeding session.
From thinking to action
A focused conversation can be the whole engagement—or the first step toward a tailored Jumpstart or Booster program.
02
Jumpstart Program
An idea needs a business around it.
Positioning, services, pricing, brand identity, operations, website, and starter marketing assets—built in the right sequence, with white-glove execution.
IN PRACTICE · NORTH SHORE HOLIDAY HOUSE
An annual newsletter assignment grew into 2.5 years as the organization’s outsourced marketing and PR lead, connecting visibility with fundraising and building systems for a smooth leadership transition.
03
Booster Program
Your business is established. Its next chapter isn’t.
Find what is holding you back, strengthen the business, and uncover opportunities for growth. You do, we do, or I do: choose how much of the work you want on your plate.
IN PRACTICE · RECALIBRATE HCM
For Tim Beadnell’s launch, I took ownership of the infrastructure, content, business listings, sales materials, and vendor coordination so he could focus on sales and partnerships.
LET’S START THE CONVERSATION
Let’s find the good, the bad, the ugly—and the missing.
Bring me the challenges, the questions, or the half-formed idea. That’s what the conversation is for.
