Stumped or overwhelmed?

Profit faster

I’m dedicated to your success

Are you seeking business support for your potential business?

If you are a start-up or new small business owner, you’ve come to the right place.

I’ve experienced the passion, the doubts, the challenges, and frustrations that are part and parcel of entrepreneurial ventures. I’ve very likely made the mistakes that you may have already made or are about to make. I’ve also grown companies, fattened their bottom line, and helped them thrive.

I created Startup Connection especially for you. You can be better. You can avoid expensive mistakes. You can build a company that thrives.

I don’t have to tell you why you started your business. In fact, I want YOU to tell me why.

Then, I want you to tell me WHAT your business does or should do, so I can show you HOW. That is, if you are serious and the right candidate to receive my customized hands-on guidance, my unique business tools, and my executive leadership. If you have any vision of what you want to create, we can help reduce blind spots that impede growth and profitability.

I have four decades of business experience and success that will be utilized to advance your business past the grave early development stages that cripple most new companies.

Bottom line: I will save you time and money.
