Trying to run a small business takes a lot of work. Identify the steps you need in order to take action and achieve your goals with a small business action plan!

Like most of today’s business owners, I'm a purpose-driven entrepreneur. I have more than 2 decades of experience as a business consultant, financial skills trainer and profits coach.
I take great joy from helping others learn and utilize the skills and financial savvy that are the building blocks of profitable, easy-to-run businesses.
My first year in business was disappointing. There is such a difference between knowing what to do and HOW to do it. Once I realized what I had missed, I was able to triple my income my second year. The real bottom line is that… the use of simple tools and effective strategies produces profound results.
Since then, I have been able to consistently make informed decisions, rise above my fears, and build a highly profitable business (that has become more than I ever expected it would). I am more confident and have the freedom that time and money make possible. While I still don’t like tax season, it is not a time of anxiety and dread.
For me, there has been nothing more exhilarating and fulfilling than being able to confidently take focused action, make a difference, make money, love my business, and have a life I love. It would be my honor to help you to learn how to do the same.
