Small Business Consultation

In addition to my own ventures, I've had the privilege of reviewing dozens of business plans and observing a diverse array of business models and methods.

I can help your business answer the following questions

I know I need a business plan, but I don't know where to start.

Business plans aren't just for entrepreneurs seeking investors or applying for loans. It's critical that you lay out a concrete strategy for success, and a business plan is the best way to make sure that your thoughts are on paper.

How important is a search engine to my business?

Sure, search engine's are important, but there's more to it. Search engine's are an area even experienced business people find confusing. The question is, what investment will be cost effective for your particular business model?

Is a website a worthwhile step?

You'll be hard-pressed to find a source that doesn't strongly recommend a web presence. Nonetheless, not every business will benefit from a website.

Together, we can find a solution that invests the proper amount into a website to achieve your particular marketing or commerce goals.

How much capital do I need to start my business?

It's true, more is almost always better, but we can take a look at your mission and find a reasonable investment that will get your foot in the door with a solid first step.

How much money should I put towards marketing?

This is a hard question for an inexperienced entrepreneur to answer. Together we can find an answer tailored to your model, to make sure that every single one of your dollars hits its mark.

How do I find more capital?

Sure, you know that you can get a loan or find an investor, but where do you find more capital? Who do you talk to about investing? How do you approach a bank?

I'm not sure my web developer knows his stuff, can you check it out?

It's hard to know what you're paying for when you have no idea what you're paying for. I'm happy to take a look at the files your developer is providing you to make sure that everything is on the level before you cut the last check.
