The Bottom Line Inc.

As your small business coach, I will help you set goals with realistic benchmarks so you can measure your business’s progress. We’ll identify your strengths and how to capitalize on them. We’ll work together to address your stumbling blocks and plan strategies to either get through them or work around them.

I have owned my own small businesses and rental properties for over 40 years. But even before then, my parents owned a business with ten employees. As soon as I could hold a dust rag in my hand, they put me to work. I literally grew up in a small business.

As an accountant for over 35 years, I have dealt with many small businesses. I’ve seen success and failure.  Prior to being an accountant, I worked as a counselor and therapist, and I am a non-denominational ordained minister.  Combined skills with my 35+ years of experience I will help you on a personal, emotional, and practical level to start, grow and run your small business.

We can meet for one session ($75) if you only have a few questions, or you can buy a block of five sessions for $325. Each session is half an hour.
