What we do

Four pillars, one practice.

Strategy, cloud, custom software, and brand — for the kind of company that's outgrown spreadsheets but doesn't need an enterprise SI.

Business Consulting

Strategy and operations advisory grounded in three decades of hands-on consulting — applied to your real SMB problems, not textbook ones.

AWS for SMB

Cloud architecture, migration, and cost optimization at SMB scale. No enterprise sprawl. No consumer shortcuts. No vendor lock you can't afford to unwind.

AI-Powered Custom Solutions

We interview, we understand, we build. Modern AI lets us deliver custom software far faster than traditional development — at prices SMBs can actually pay.

Brand & Marketing

Brand strategy, creative, and campaign execution. We help SMBs build a brand worth remembering — and run the media to make sure people do.

How we work

Requirements first. Delivery second. Iteration built in.

Good consulting starts by actually understanding the business. Modern tools handle the delivery. That's the whole method.

1

Interview

We start where good consulting always has — inside your business, listening.

2

Requirements

Three decades of practice at translating messy real-world needs into concrete deliverables.

3

Build

AWS and AI compress delivery cycles dramatically. Software, cloud, or process — whatever the problem calls for.

4

Iterate

Real users use what we ship. We watch, we listen, we adjust.

More on our approach
Who we serve

Built for the SMB that's outgrown its tools.

The 10-employees-and-up SMB. Roughly $1M to $10M in revenue. Owner-led or founder-adjacent, still close enough to the operation to make decisions — but running into the ceiling where spreadsheets and ad-hoc tools stop scaling.

Any industry. What matters is the shape of the business, not the SIC code. If you're smaller than that, we may still be a fit — the marketing just isn't aimed at you.

Signals we work well together

  • 10+ employees, typically under $10M revenue
  • Owner-operator or growth-stage leadership
  • Any industry — the method translates
  • Ready to invest in modern tools (AWS, AI, custom software)
  • Prefer a small, trusted advisor over a big consultancy
