Frequently asked questions.

1. Why should I hire a consultant?

Because even the best business owners need fresh eyes to find opportunities and solutions. Think of me as your behind-the-scenes ally, helping you work smarter, not harder.

2. I’ve never worried about inventory turns before. Why now?

Because cash sitting on your shelves isn’t helping your bottom line. Together, we’ll turn that inventory into income.

3. I think I’ll wait until I get more organized.

Waiting to get organized before fixing your business is like waiting to clean your house before hiring a cleaner. Let’s fix the chaos together.

4. Can’t I just run my shop on passion?

Passion got you this far, but strategy is what gets you to the next level. You deserve a business that doesn’t rely solely on your hustle.

5. I don’t have time to gather all the information.

You’re busy. I get it. That’s why I do the heavy lifting. You’ll get clear steps with minimal disruption to your day-to-day.

6. How much does it cost to hire you?

Less than the cost of missed opportunities and unoptimized operations. Plus, my goal is to save you money, not spend it.

7. My finances are a mess. Will you judge me?

No way. Messy finances are part of the job. I’m here to help clean them up, not make you feel bad about them.

8. What’s the first step if I decide to work with you?

We’ll start with a conversation to figure out your goals and challenges. Then I’ll create a plan tailored just for you. No cookie-cutter solutions here. Let’s find some time.

9. Will this be a ton of work for me?

Nope. My job is to simplify, not complicate. I’ll focus on actionable solutions while you keep doing what you do best.

Absolutely. Whether it’s social media, email campaigns, or in-store promotions, I’ll help you connect with customers in ways that actually drive sales.

Most clients start seeing improvements within a few months. Some changes happen faster. It all depends on your goals and how ready you are to roll.

12. Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

No. I offer flexible options—whether you need a quick fix or ongoing support. You’re in control.

Yes! From writing job postings to interviewing and onboarding, I’ll help you build a team that supports your vision.

Not at all. I break down the numbers into simple, actionable insights. You’ll understand exactly what to do without feeling overwhelmed.

16. My store is doing okay. Do I really need help?

“Okay” is good, but why stop there? I’ll help you uncover hidden opportunities to make your store more profitable and less stressful to run.

17. Do you only work with bike stores?

Bike stores are my specialty, but I’ve helped other small businesses, too. If you own a retail or service business, I can help.
