Why I Love Consulting
There is nothing more rewarding to me than sitting down, getting to know a small business owner (AND their business) – then helping them grow.
To me – it’s like giving back. (and sometimes I even get paid for it 
To me – it’s being an integral part of our Free Enterprise System that I love so much.
My tenure at Ace Hardware centered around business consulting (my title was “Retail Consultant”) – where I helped hundreds of Ace franchisees grow their businesses – all over the great state of Texas. The store owners and I worked on all aspects of their business – utilizing a week long business plan process including – Employee Training – Advertising – Marketing – Merchandising – and Financial Management – with monthly follow ups.
Growing up in the family Ace Hardware stores in Houston, Texas helped open many doors in my Ace career. I owe it all to my mentor and the “Ultimate” retailer – my Dad.
Today – I am offering readers my consulting services. Drawing on my 33 years on the “front line” and in the trenches of small business – I can take a holistic view of your business and help you strategize for your online growth.
I can only consult with folks who have read the book and made their notes on the blank lines at the end of each chapter. I usually tell folks “We can be 100 times more effective – if you have read the book and made your notes before our initial conference.
So – what makes me unique from all of the other “Gurus” out there preaching Search Engine Optimization. Two things:
1. I have walked in your shoes and understand small business from the inside out (I currently own three small successful businesses) – I speak your language – in layman’s terms.
2. You can rest assured that there will be no pressure (other than my expectations that you get proactive in your online business growth) – I am not trying to sell you anything – No long term contracts – No Web Design services – Nothing. In fact we will probably only need one initial (2 hour) meeting to get you pointed in the right direction – I can make recommendations and referrals, if you need an “Internet Specialist” to come in and help you on an ongoing bases.
