Supporting the Success of Others 

Here is a brief sketch of some of the places we've served in recent the years:

We helped the founders at Grantbook mature their approach to sales by introducing pipeline management best practices, including forecasting and closing opportunities. We provided coaching and mentoring of both leadership and key staff. 

We helped the founder at Switchboard mature operational processes as well as improve and streamline proposal development. We also coached and mentored leadership and key staff  addressing some internal communication challenges and some company culture issues along the way to improve transparency. 

We worked with the leadership team at Total North Communications as part of their Business Advisory Board, helping them with strategic planning toward their next level of growth. Here's what they said about working with us: "Bonnie was an exceptional asset to our Business Advisory Board. From her C-level visionary capacity to her exceptional eye for marketing detail; it was a pleasure working with a consultant that took the time to fully understood our brand and goals before embarking on the strategic exercise. We've implemented a number of Bonnie's ideas and they are taking our company to the next level!" Josh Clark, Vice President

Working with Yukon College's Cold Climate Innovation we supported the founder of Frostbyte Software Design, the creators of borealist, a Yukon centric online classified service, to help evaluate the site's commercial viability. Marko needed to explore his ideas and goals for the site to help him make important decisions. Here's what Marko says about working with us: "It was outstanding - Bonnie was able to communicate everything about my business in such a clear, matter-of-fact manner, much better than I could ever dream of. The things I had in my mind but couldn't quite articulate, Bonnie could figure them out and write them down so concisely. I feel I now have a greater understanding of how my business could develop and grow. Thanks again!"  Marko Marjanovic, Owner

Working with Yukon College's Cold Climate Innovation (CCI), we supported the founder of Boreal Compost Enterprises (BCE) to help him transition the company from years of R&D to commercial readiness. This ground breaking innovation which was supported by CCI during the R&D phase has just completed its testing, secured a patent allowance and was already in discussion with a US agricultural equipment manufacture interested in a global licensing agreement with Boreal Compost. Working directly with the inventor, we secured Economic Development funding, developed a working project plan and created the outline for the beta testing program. Here is what Garret says about his experience:  "Bonnie, thank you for everything. I could not have done it without you..." Garret Gillespie, Owner

​The founder at d1zi hired us to develop, launch and run a summer sales program that expanded their client base and grew revenues. We hired staff, structured compensation and mentored leadership.

ADVISORY 

Advisory work is  often much more strategic and typically involves working closely with leadership. It is foundational work that evolves the business' awareness of itself (where it is and and where it's going). Focusing on  vision while supporting it with clear communication of priorities.

CONSULTING

Consulting tends to be tactical, rolling up one's sleeves and staying focused on what needs doing. It typically involves improving business processes (mostly in sales) with an eye on alignment, priorities and execution. In order to achieve business outcomes it is important to understand where you are going and in this sense, advisory and consulting work benefit each other.

​We've been supporting others a long time...

In addition to the stories above, we've supported some great consulting, technology, services and software companies over the years. A strong technical aptitude, process centric thinking with a focus on prioritization and execution, enables us to easily move across industries and concentrate on building strong foundations...
