As a small business owner and operator, at the end of the day or week, when your brain is fried; you neither
have the energy, the time nor the inclination to think about strategy and the future. My approach to being of service to the small business owner is similar to my enterprise approach in that I meet you, the business owner, where you are by getting to know you and your operations.
The good news is, you’re not alone!

Coaching & Mentoring
The INNOVATE Coaching Model: INNOVATE is about thinking differently, behaving differently, learning, recreating and transforming. It’s about challenging status quo thinking, “That’s the way I’ve always done it”, so you can take your business to the next level! I’ve been an entrepreneur for many years and can understand what you’re going through! Sometimes it takes another set of eyes and ears to help you uncover what’s blocking your way.
