we value resourcefulness: taking steps that de-risk and maximize the opportunity

With experience across many entrepreneurial journeys, there’s a broad understanding of how businesses succeed — and where they tend to get stuck. We’re not an engineering firm, but we work with them to create best selling products. We’re not designers, but familiar enough with great design to have won awards for our brands.

What matters is knowing what questions to ask, who to involve, and how to navigate the path forward. The missteps and hard lessons from past ventures now serve as insight — helping others avoid costly mistakes and unnecessary setbacks when launching a business or entering a new market.

  • If you are in the idea stage or have developed a crude prototype and need it to make it commercial, we have travelled the path many times.

  • When we work with brands we get emotionally involved as if they were our own. We like to build brands that will stand the test of time.

  • The engine of any business is sales. We help you get started quickly and to grow with a distribution plan that is staged depending on the opportunity. We make connections, manage sales and have the systems to work with small and large retailers.

  • We need to find your audience, if you haven’t already. And then let them know about you. When needed we establish partners for advertising, PR, trade shows and creative tactics.

  • If you are at the idea stage, some things are going to cost money and you will need to plan for that. We are not a bank, but we can offer guidance and, in some cases, connections.

  • Help secure suppliers, retailers, sales agents, and other customers and vendors.

  • Never have the macro economic shifts been so wild. We have had to navigate covid, war, tariffs, and now even more tariffs. The uncertainty is real but it is manageable.

  • We work with several factories in Asia including China and Vietnam as well as South America. We can help identify a factory that is right for your product.

  • Setting up to get your product to where it needs to be, cost effectively.

  • We’ve worked with the Chinese and Vietnamese. We travel there. We know the people and what makes the cultures so different.

  • Identify storage solutions that meet the business’ needs.

  • Make sure you’re set up to track the numbers.
