Business Strategy Consultant
My mission as a business strategy Consultant is to help 200 businesses become better stewards of their resources by 2031 because everyone deserves to enjoy peace and contentment when we base our actions on the truth and wisdom of God’s Word.
As an entrepreneur for over 30 years, I want to use my skills as a business strategy consultant to show people that running a business can be meaningful and rewarding. My purpose in life and in business is to glorify God by serving His people.
My family has been an integral part of this business from the beginning. At one point or another my wife and children have lent a hand to business success. Even our family dog, Prima, serves as the Director of Shredding and, much to my chagrin, often voices her opinion during Zoom calls.
Did you know that there are over 2300 verses in the Bible about money and business?
“Do you want to be counted wise, to build a reputation for wisdom? Here’s what you do: Live well, live wisely, live humbly. It’s the way you live, not the way you talk, that counts.
James 3:13
