Susan was amazing to work with. One of many things she help me with was showing me where we were missing out on thousands of dollars in our estimating process and it made a huge impact to our profit margins and bottom line.
I highly recommend her. She knows business and she's a great problem solver.

Susan has been instrumental in helping us grow our bottom line and get more organized.
We received excellent advice, and she was a great sounding board for talking out ideas and issues.

We came to Susan during a tumultuous time for our business, and I'm not sure we would have survived it without her.
Her advice got us through this hard period and is continuing to ensure we grow and improve, not only to help navigate future challenges and avoid the ones we can but to enjoy the good times as well.
We are very fortunate to have found Susan when we did and are very thankful for her guidance and expertise.

Susan's knowledge, experience in the construction industry and clear investment in her clients' success is apparent.
In a short time, she has already brought a clarity of the issues that have been stagnating our general contracting business as well as is helping us implement effective solutions to make our company far more profitable.
She is great and we recommend her highly!

You are very welcome

Hiring Susan was the best thing I could have done for my plumbing business.
She has guided me in directions I would never have known to take and helped me implement processes that are allowing our company to grow with a lot less stress and overwhelm.
Additionally, Susan took the time to show us how to better estimate and price our services along with providing us with a solid understanding of our financial situation and how to use that knowledge going forward.
She is very knowledgeable about the construction industry, kind and really cares about her clients.

Working with Susan has been incredibly helpful.
As a self-made entrepreneur with no background in business, Susan’s guidance has been invaluable in rebranding my business.
Susan’s “tough love” approach is exactly what I need, as I often struggle to find people willing and able to challenge me to grow.
I’ve been able to achieve so much more than I ever could have imagined with Susan’s help!

Susan is simply the best!
She is very professional, knowledgeable, has great ideas, and is quick to help set a path forward.
I was struggling with getting organized with my growing business and needed help navigating all the changes, and it is amazing how much easier it all is with her expert eye and advice on what to do and how.
Thanks to her advice and help, my business is thriving!

I really enjoy working with Susan.
I appreciate that she talks with me, not at me.
She helps me see my business through a new set of eyes, and develop strategies to avoid paralysis by analysis.
Every session results in some kernel of knowledge that is directly applicable to helping me become a better small business owner.

Susan changed the course of my business.
I was burnt out, stressed from losing clients (because we're in a pandemic), and scrambling to start a new passive income product line.
My social media director suggested I find a business coach to help me align my goals and stay focused.
Meeting with Susan was exactly what I needed to get my butt off the ground and start rebuilding my company.
She set up small, easy goals for me to accomplish on a bi-weekly basis with email check ins throughout the week.
Susan and I worked together to increase the bottom line of my business (I doubled my business within the first month) and to help me launch my passive product line- all within 5 months of working together.

Thank you Suzanne. You are the reason for the speed of your success. You committed to doing the work and it payed off quickly.
Alexis Mantione
Susan has been my anchor. I have a small business that I was running entirely on my own and it was time to scale up. I spent hours on zoom and attending “free seminars” that made me even more conflicted. I was not looking for a cookie cutter approach and honestly did not make any connection with someone I felt knew their stuff and was willing to share their full knowledge with me. After watching a few of her workshops I knew Susan was the person I wanted to get me moving in the right direction. She really is a no B.S lady. Additionally I have now hired Susan as my “personal advisor”, although she is really like carrying around my private CEO in my pocket. It’s clear that Susan wants me to be successful and grow my business as if it were her own. She makes time for you and is extremely accessible. I have a niche product line which she researched and learned about before giving blanket advice. My fiber arts business has become easier for me to handle because I now have step by step actions to follow instead of haphazardly selling without thinking of the complete picture.. She tells it like it is, so don’t plan on having a “yes lady”. You are paying for her guidance and she sincerely wants you to get all the value you can for your money. Being a solopreneur can be scary and lonely at times, but I no longer feel like I am on my own. I would say that’s an A* recommendation from me. More...

Thank you Alexis. I love being your "personal advisor" and the CEO in your pocket.
Denyse Jackson
During Covid I signed up for Susan's boot camp. I was impressed. My position at my job was eliminated. I decided that it was important to join her Edge program. It is a breath of fresh and she doesn't BS you. In joining this group, do I not only have support, yet also Susan. She is available, open and makes you think and sometimes make hard decisions. I am taking it slow, however with her and the edge group, my business that started as a hobby will be a success. Thank you Susan. More...

Louisa Jovanovich
When Susan says no BS she means it. Yet she is the most loving, compassionate, smart, knowledgeable person ever. I am honored working with her. I couldn’t be happier having Susan help me launch my business. Sometimes we just get extra blessed in life. She’s very special and I’m beyond grateful. More...
