Business Consulting

What is your “Point B” and do you really know what you need to do differently to get there?

  • Running a successful business can be challenging with many choices and roadblocks along the way. Sometimes, business owners need an outside perspective to help navigate these challenges. Just like how even Michael Jordan had a shooting coach, seeking guidance from someone with experience can make a big difference.

  • How do you grow, really grow beyond just what the market is doing? Agencies and vendors tend to give you advice through the lens of what their company does and not fully consider the total business. With over 30 years of experience running businesses ranging from small startups to Fortune brands, I founded Spatula to offer cost-effective solutions to business owners. I focus on practical results rather than fancy concepts, helping you define your goals and point your company in the right direction for success. Sometimes that is cutting costs or reallocating funds. Sometimes that is reworking the brand and message and sometimes it is just a real focus on a new channel.

  • I know what it takes to develop and launch new products, expand into new channels, and change strategies to survive as markets get crowded with new competition. I work closely with business owners to assess the current operations, identify areas for improvement, and implement strategic tactics to drive real change. Whether it's managing vendors, developing sales strategies, or leveraging my network of industry partners, I am committed to being a valuable partner in your business journey.

Simple Questions, Years of Experience, Focused Results

Starting with simple questions, I work to absorb everything about the business, the history, and existing challenges. Drawing on over 30 years of experience managing Fortune brands, revitalizing B2B enterprises, founding consumer brands, and spearheading global consumer electronics growth, I have cultivated a problem-solving mindset – how do we get to “Point B”?

In the intricate chess game of business, achieving results is paramount over the journey itself. Fueled by this outcome-focused drive, supported by my network, background, and dedication, I am committed to steering your business towards the goals we define together.
