Your next growth engine. Built to run.

This is the actual product. Branding and marketing are the instruments. I come in as a fractional growth partner, build the engine that brings in customers, partners, and money, and run it with you until it runs without me.

What the engine did

Four different businesses, four different industries. Four different engines. Each with unique problems requiring unique solutions, which is where I come in.

Hemp Flower Naturals

Sell sheet and a store shelf go here

100+ accounts and $1.5M in 18 months

The problem
A $110K seed that had to be repaid in a year, and a product nobody had heard of.
What I built
The wholesale channel end to end: the manufacturers, the sales team, the sell sheets, the account management, and the e-commerce channel alongside it.
What happened
Seed repaid in year one. Wholesale into more than 100 stores carried about 80% of revenue.

ReSource Network

A member event photo goes here

An Asheville pilot became 3 cities, 200+ businesses, and $500K in trade

The problem
Nobody joins a barter network until there's someone else to trade with. Every owner said the same three things: not enough businesses yet, the accounting sounds hard, I need cash.
What I built
Two rules for who to sign next (Noah's Ark: two of every kind of business; the Domino Effect: whoever a new member needs to buy from), weekly events where people could watch a trade happen, and the Chattanooga network, launched by myself.
What happened
200+ member businesses and 500+ users across Asheville, Chattanooga, and Austin traded more than $500,000 in 16 months.

Unique Places to Save

The pipeline view, numbers redacted, goes here

A B2B partner pipeline run by one person

The problem
A conservation nonprofit that needed mitigation banks and corporate partners, with no development team.
What I built
The list, the right person at each company, personal outreach at a scale one person can't do by hand, a HubSpot CRM that's actually used, and the content that makes the follow-up land.
What happened
Stewardship fund up 50%. Projects completed up 82%. Now the largest US nonprofit holding mitigation conservation easements.

CanvasPrints.com

The print floor goes here

A B2B channel with two global companies in under a year

The problem
A canvas print shop selling one product to one kind of customer, with a big print floor that could do more.
What I built
White-label printing for two global print-on-demand companies: CanvasPrints printed and shipped under their brands. I built the relationships and got the agreements in place.
What happened
Both agreements in place by March 2021, with a total estimated first-year value of $2M. Operations grew to 24 print-shop staff at peak to keep up with demand.

Growth happens when strong fundamentals and good processes meet.

The offer and the price

The fastest lever, and the one nobody touches. Half the businesses I've looked at are selling the right thing too cheap or the wrong thing to the right people. We fix that before we spend a dollar finding more people.

The pipeline

A defined buyer, a list that's real, a reason to reply, and a cadence that doesn't quit after one email. AI does the list and the research; the message is written to be answered by a person.

The partners

The two or three relationships that open a hundred doors: the distributor, the association, the referring practice, the sponsor. I find them, make the case, and structure the deal so it lasts.

The operating cadence

Weekly reviews, tools that are needed and used, and none that aren't. SOPs that respond to market and internal needs, and regular reporting set to the rhythm of your business.

What I run and what it costs

Growth Blueprint $2,500

Two weeks. Credited toward any engagement.

The teardown of the business: offer, price, funnel, pipeline, partners, with a ranked list of fixes, each tied to recoverable revenue, and a 30-day and 90-day plan.

Lead Engine $3,000 setup, $2,000/mo

Live in 30 days.

The outbound machine that grew Unique Places to Save: domain, inboxes, warm-up, buyer definition, custom target market list, sequences, tooling, and monthly management.

Fractional growth partner $5,000 to $10,000/mo

One to two days a week. Three-month minimum.

I own the number. Pipeline, partnerships, offer and pricing, the marketing that feeds it, and the weekly cadence, run with you and your team.

The Bigger Version from $60,000

Six months.

The full rebuild: brand, model, and go-to-market, with me as the operator through launch and the first ninety days. This is what Apotheca was. For the right business, part of the fee can be upside, documented before I start.

Who this is for

Established, owner-operated businesses with real revenue and far more potential than they're capturing. Owners who are excellent at the work and know growth is the gap. Nonprofits that need partners and funders and don't have the headcount to chase them.

Probably not a fit if you're pre-revenue, you want the cheapest hands, or the business isn't good for the people it serves.

Why one person can do this now

Five years ago this took a development team or a sales floor. Now AI does the volume: the lists, the research, the drafts, the reporting. What's left is the judgment, the relationships, and the discipline to cut what doesn't work. That's one senior person's job, and it's mine.

Questions people ask before they call.

What's the difference between this and marketing?

Marketing brings people to the door. Business development is the whole engine: who we sell to, what we sell them and at what price, the pipeline that finds them, the partners that open doors, and the follow-up that closes. I'll run your marketing as part of it. I won't run marketing for a business with no engine behind it and call it growth.

Do you make the sales calls?

I can, but I shouldn't do it for very long. I build the pipeline, run the outreach, and sit in the first meetings so the pitch gets fixed fast. Then your team closes, or you do, with a process that doesn't depend on me being in the room. If you have no one to close, that's a hire we make together and I'll say so up front.

How fast does the pipeline fill?

Outbound gets replies in the first two weeks and meetings in the first month. Partnerships take a quarter to land and years to pay. A real pipeline, the kind a board can see, is a ninety-day build.

What industries?

Independent practices, local service companies, B2B firms, product brands going into wholesale, and nonprofits that need corporate partners. The mechanics are the same; the buyers are different. What I won't take is a business that isn't good for the people it serves.

Will you take equity or revenue share?

Sometimes, for a business I'd bet on, and only with the agreement written before the work begins. I've built value for other people without securing my side of it. I don't do that anymore, and I won't ask you to either.

Start with the free call.

Sixty minutes. I'll ask a lot of questions, tell you what I'd do, and tell you what I think it's worth. Within 48 hours you get a written playbook you can run with or without me. No pitch, no obligation.
