Are you...

  • at your wits end, overwhelmed by everything coming at you?
  • needing clarity and action steps to take you to the next level?
  • being challenged to grow your organization and create efficiencies at the same time?

Do you...

  • know that what made you successful so far, will not get you to the next level?
  • need an organization makeover to create automation and streamlining?
  • feel great about your business and want to shore up areas for scaling?

or

  • Maybe you run a successful organization and are looking for ways to invest and develop your team.
  • Maybe you have a C-level opening and just need a bridge until you find the right permanent talent.

Whether starting a new business, investing in the one you have,

 or ready to reach the next step in expanding your empire,

I can help.

Business Coaching/Consulting

Together, we create step-by-step strategies based on the unique demands of the business:  forging a path to accomplish the vision and success.   We focus on the greatest current needs with the highest return on investment (ROI) creating time, efficiency, and leverage of the top and bottom line.  The way is then clear for short, medium, and long term actions - focusing on the highest ROI.  Feel better about your business, carry less stress, and watch your business grow. 


Most business coaching starts with a six month contract meeting 1-3 times per month then goes month to month.  I limit my business to ten clients at a time.  If I have no open slots, you can elect to go on my wait list.  If a one-time intensive is desired, check out the Breakthru & Prosperity Session available to new clients in the Getting Started Section.

How it Works

01 ​Are we the right fit?

The first step is to ensure that we are the right fit to work together.  It can be as simple as: do our personalities mesh in a way that will be productive and helpful to you and your organization.  So we start with a brief, fifteen minute, preliminary call to get to know each other.  

02 Next Step

We have a longer meeting which can be virtual (I use Zoom) or in person (at my Sumner, WA office).  I have a set of questions I ask that dive deeper into ensuring I understand what your goals and needs are.  This is also the opportunity to get answers to additional questions you may have.  At the end of our meeting, a course of action is reviewed and we both decide if we would like to move forward.   We review pricing, contract deliverables, and start date.  

03 Getting Started

Once our agreement is signed, information specifically geared to your business and needs are emailed to you.  This may include scheduling and resource links, calendar dates, webinar access, or other items related to your business.  Then we get started moving the needle!
