BUSINESS PROBLEMS?

SIMPLE SOLUTION. RUN RIGHT COACHING.

Big vision? Messy middle? I've got you.


I built my first business through trial, error, and relentless effort. You don’t have to. Now you’ve got the advisor and coach I wish I had back then: me.  I've witnessed the full spectrum of business experiences—the triumphs, the setbacks, and the tough times.


I wasn’t born into a network of entrepreneurs, nor did I have an Ivy League education. I didn’t have a blueprint or a safety net. I had passion, drive, doubt, fear, stress, hard lessons, and an unwavering desire to succeed.


I stumbled. I failed often. I questioned everything.


But I was never truly alone. Mentors, encouragers, angels in human form, appeared when I needed them most, reminding me of my strength when I was ready to give up. They helped me grow through failures, learn from setbacks, and rise with new wisdom and resilience.


Because of them, I didn’t just build a business — I built belief in myself.


Today, with over 40 years of experience in small business and corporate management, I understand that a struggling business owner needs support and encouragement, not judgment or criticism.


Whether you want to launch your business dream, have already launched and need growth ideas, or are somewhere in the messy middle, I’ll stand by you - and with you - providing guidance and expertise throughout your business journey.


I can help you start smart, solve urgent problems, grow purposefully, make informed decisions, and lead with greater impact.


There's no fluff. No formulas. Just straight-up support where it counts.


  • Make smart, strategic decisions
  • Save scads of money on wasted effort
  • Build systems that actually work
  • Grow without burning out
  • Get clear on your finances
  • Lead with confidence


Free yourself from working in crisis mode.


Whether you’re a first-time founder, a seasoned business owner needing a fresh perspective, or navigating a tough season and ready for a breakthrough, let’s tackle it together.


My mission is simple—to be the trusted advisor that propels your business forward, to understand your unique challenges and opportunities, and craft tailored solutions that help you lay the groundwork for sustainability and growth.


Why trust my business acumen?


You don’t—not yet. You shouldn't. Let’s start with a simple conversation. During our chat, I’ll give you an honest assessment of your situation.


Whether you’re just starting your business or looking to grow an existing one, I’m here to listen, understand, and provide tailored advice that can make a real difference. Let's discuss your dreams, challenges, and how to turn them into actionable plans that move your business forward.

Frequently Ask Questions

  • WHY WORK YOU INSTEAD OF A FULL-TIME EMPLOYEE?

    When you require an independent, business-focused perspective to address a problem effectively, I can swiftly offer the comprehensive skills and expertise required to:


    • Quickly size up your business and focus on what needs to happen. Right now. 
    • Save you scads of money and wasted effort on worthless tools and dead-end strategies. 
    • Show you where to focus your limited resources so every last penny pays off. 

    What sets me apart is my hands-on, results-driven approach. Backed by years of real-world experience, I offer practical strategies—not just theories. I am not an academic consultant—I'm a business-savvy, purpose-driven advisor and coach who guides you through the complex challenges of entrepreneurship.


    "My mission is simple yet profound—to be the trusted partner that propels your business forward."

  • WHAT AREAS OF BUSINESS CAN YOU ASSIST WITH?

    Business Startup 

    Choosing the right structure—Sole Proprietorship, LLC, Partnership, or Corporation—is critical. I guide entrepreneurs through these decisions to ensure long-term financial, legal, and operational advantages. The right setup affects everything from taxes and liability to funding options and future profitability.


    Strategic Planning

    Using the OnePage Business Plan, we’ll create a focused, actionable strategy that aligns with your mission and vision. This streamlined approach keeps your business goals clear, measurable, and on track.


    Financial Management

    Profitability starts with clarity. I’ll help you interpret your numbers, identify what's working, eliminate inefficiencies, adjust pricing, and uncover hidden savings or investment opportunities to boost your bottom line.


    Resource Optimization

    When resources are limited, efficiency matters. I’ll help you get more from your people, processes, and technology by streamlining operations and reallocating assets where they deliver the most value.


    Accessing Business Financing

    Traditional lenders can be frustrating—but they’re not the only option. I’ll help you navigate the financing landscape, refine your pitch, and explore alternative funding sources to improve your chances of securing capital.


    Turnaround Strategies

    If your business is underperforming or in crisis, I’ll work with you to stabilize operations, cut losses, and rebuild profitability. My approach is grounded in real-world experience and tailored to restore both financial and organizational health.


    Regulatory Compliance

    Government regulations can be confusing and constantly shifting. I’ll help you stay compliant with tax laws, licensing, employment rules, and industry-specific requirements—saving you time, money, and legal risk.

  • WHAT IS YOUR BUSINESS BACKGROUND?

    Decades of Business Management Experience


    My diverse experience as a leader spans more than 30 years. I’ve worked in several industries in different positions across various business environments, including small business startups, midsize companies, and major corporate players. Launching multiple successful companies on my own, my perspective is unique because I view opportunities and challenges as a small business owner would. At the same time, I also clearly understand what it takes to meet marketplace and governmental requirements.


    My first company, a telecom business, experienced rapid growth that initially overwhelmed me. After years of struggle, I realized I needed to transition from a doer to a leader and embrace external guidance and support. After 18 successful years, I sold the company and moved into the corporate world, working with companies such as International Claims Administration, Custom Branded Networks, Envision Media, and Visa USA.


    Having retired from corporate enterprise, I have transitioned from my corporate career to business and financial coaching. I utilize my skills to help startups and established small companies resolve urgent problems, improve management practices, develop, and grow successful, sustainable enterprises.


    At this juncture in my career, I prefer to work in-depth and one-to-one with small companies. I enjoy this aspect of business management because I can cultivate relationships, which often evolve into long-term partnerships and friendships, as well.

  • HOW DO YOU DELIVER YOUR SERVICES?

    I work exclusively through virtual meetings, telephone calls, emails, and online chats.


    Due to the global pandemic, I have entirely changed My work setup and switched to virtual work.


    This decision has various benefits, including time savings, cost reduction, increased safety, efficiency, and faster task completion.


    Moreover, it has opened up new avenues for collaboration, allowing us to work closely with entrepreneurs and small business owners who have broadband internet connections from anywhere. This fosters a sense of a larger professional network.

  • WHAT IS YOUR WORKFLOW PROCESS?

    Discovery


    I ask deep, thought-provoking—and sometimes uncomfortable—questions to uncover what’s really driving or hindering your business. This discovery process is designed to give me a clear, honest understanding of your operations, challenges, and opportunities. The goal is simple: to get to the heart of your business so we can chart a smarter path forward.


    Recommendation


    Based on what we uncover, I’ll deliver clear, practical, and tailored solutions. If your business is growing rapidly, I’ll propose strategies to manage and contain that growth without losing control. If internal practices are breaking down, I’ll introduce systems and structure to stabilize and streamline operations. And if you're stagnant, I’ll outline a plan to reignite growth—intentionally and sustainably. Every recommendation is designed to be actionable and aligned with your core objectives.


    Guidance & Expertise


    You’re already doing a lot right—but you don’t have to do it all alone. Many leaders don’t have the time or bandwidth to manage every strategic, operational, financial, or marketing decision. That’s where I come in. I provide hands-on, ongoing support so you can focus on leading, knowing you have expert backup when it counts. My role is to help you make better decisions, stay grounded, and avoid overwhelm—throughout the consultation and beyond.

  • WHY DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO?

    It’s not just a job for me; it's a personal journey


    It’s my firm conviction that I advance through helping others advance. Let’s face it - startups and small businesses have limited time, budgets, and resources. I know this because I’ve built two successful companies myself - one was acquired, and the other was publicly listed on the NYSE. I understand what’s needed to maximize results while realizing dreams. I’ll teach you how to eliminate inefficiencies that can pull on the bottom line and hold you back from your true potential. 


    Helping others achieves lasting happiness and success. After decades of continuous success in assisting corporate enterprises in their growth and expansion, I’m returning to my roots—my startup roots—with a clear focus on problem-solving, building processes, and increasing profits for small businesses.


    My objective is to make your journey smoother and more rewarding. I want to be the advisor I wish I had when I started—someone who can provide clear, actionable insights and compassionate support.


    • I believe in the power of generosity and sharing my knowledge to prevent others from struggling.

    • I strive to build genuine connections with my clients, ensuring that our conversations are professional but also meaningful and supportive.

    • With my extensive background in strategic planning, issue identification, debt resolution strategies, and more, I bring a comprehensive toolkit to help you overcome obstacles and achieve sustainable growth.
