Where owners who
earn
become the savvy business manager
they need to
succeed
your (not-so) silent partner in business.
My speciality is helping small business owners in small towns to LIVE their dream, while awake.
I do this by becoming your business accomplice - we work together towards what you want and need one step at a time, making a solid plan, bringing forward my experience in business development and financials. We progress as partners in your success, adding the right skills at the right time to amplify your ideas and expertise, helping you to make one clear decision at a time.
I have spent the last decade helping small business owners just like you to find a way to live the dream they dreamed when they bought or opened up their company. So many of them found themselves buried by the workload of ownership and feeling like they have to know and do everything themselves.
LEARN MORE
I know that pride and penalty of ownership, too.
Having built and developed (sometimes the hard way) several businesses in my life, I know all too well how, despite my degree in business, I still didn’t have all the tools I needed to succeed.
I know that because of my experience there were and are more small business owners who are learning it as they go, just like I did. And in small towns and rural communities? Well, we face different challenges that can’t always be solved by reading the latest business development book.
Building the skill set to become your own ideal business manager is hard without help. Small business owners can feel like they have to be good at everything and know it all to stay on track. The truth is, you can learn what matters most, but doing it with patchy instruction or invalid advice feels even harder.
What to do next?
What do I not know?
What am I not seeing?
These questions are often asked inside your head.
What if you could ask them out loud without feeling judgement and actually get a simple, clear answer to reflect on, so you can make your own decision?
What if someone could pose important questions and present ideas you didn’t see before, helping you to take opportunities and find solutions previously out of reach?
I’m here to tell you that of the dozens of clients I have helped, every single one of them just needed someone to bounce ideas off and get clear on their next step to feel confident about their business decisions and activities. Once they had that resource in me, as someone that won’t overlook the realities of their life and deeply cared about what they actually want out of business, it changed everything for them.
Some people call me a coach for this reason. I am honoured to accept that title. Coaches are the person you train for when you can’t find your own motivation. They are the ones who bring you knowledge and support. Coaches work with you on your goals but never overtake them with their own view of your potential. They also know how to push you gently and hold you when you can’t move forward.
I also produce dandy spreadsheets and numbers that many owners find overwhelming to create. Nerd/Coach. What can I say? Even in my swim coaching career, the numbers matter just as much as the relationship between athlete and coach.
The cool part is, although my clients may refer to me as their coach, they actually describe me as their business partner (without equity shares).
I’m the person they turn to to co-develop ideas, get clear on the right opportunities, and make informed decisions about their best path.
Sounds like a partnership to me.
When we work together, I develop a deep understanding and connection with you and your company, just like it was my own.
And when we’ve completed the project or built the skill set? I set you free as the badass business manager you just developed in your own company.
And when you’re ready to grow again? Call me. We pick right up and get you set for that next phase of business you want for you and your family.
