Our job is to act as an extension of your organization, providing the leadership and experience that can be difficult to find or too expensive to have on salary.

How we help

As objective outside participants, we bring a view to your business and sector that is unique to us. We bring a fresh perspective, free of the biases that often negatively affect business objectivity.

It is our ability to research, analyze and implement actionable plans for businesses stuck in a rut – that is our value. We have a long history of success doing this, which we are happy to discuss with you.

We’ve been successful and can help

We started with little, then worked hard for over 30 years, building great businesses and careers. We went from zero to over $22mil in annual revenues.

Running a business can be tough

We are well familiar with the quiet desperation of owning a business. Lonely rests the crown of the small business person. Sleepless nights. Staff. Bankers. Profitability. Stress. Holidays (lack thereof). We’ve been there and we can help.

How we work

Our work is driven by client needs. Every opportunity is unique, therefore, we adjust our process accordingly. That said, we have an absolute commitment to:
> Listening
> Questioning – not challenging
> Learning
> Thinking
> Researching
> Sharing
> Adjusting
> Planning
> Executing
> Accountability
> Laughing

Whether a short-term contract for research, planning and initial execution, or a long-term engagement, we work to your needs. There are no minimum requirements with respect to working with us.

What we believe

> That integrity drives results.
> That clients’ needs come first.
> That laughter is important.
> That people are inherently good.
> That your success is our success.
> That our handshake is our word.

Our commitment is to conduct business on a foundation of loyalty, respect, performance and mutual benefit for all involved parties. We believe that reputation, accountability and reliability are paramount to long-term success.

Despite our relaxed culture,

we are anything but relaxed about your financial success.
