Multi-Location Retail Turnaround
⏱ 12-Month Engagement 📍 35 Locations · Nationwide
Operations Inventory Financial Systems

A 35-location national retail operation was struggling with bloated inventory, rising labor costs, thin margins, and outdated operational systems. The business lacked financial visibility and had no structured process for managing purchasing, scheduling, or vendor relationships.

We conducted a full operational and financial audit, implemented a new ERP system, restructured the scheduling model, built a purchasing control system, and introduced pricing discipline across all product categories. We worked alongside the management team throughout the entire implementation to ensure real adoption.

Regional Operations
Revenue Growth Through Marketing & Systems
⏱ 9-Month Engagement 💰 $16M Revenue
Marketing Operations Supply Chain

A regional supply and service company had plateaued in revenue growth and was relying on inefficient manual systems for purchasing and inventory management. Marketing was ad hoc with no structured approach to lead generation or distributor development.

We developed and executed a comprehensive marketing and sales strategy, built a new distributor network, and designed a purchasing system that substantially reduced waste and improved cash flow. Contract negotiations with key vendors were restructured to improve cost and terms.

Total company revenue growth, 9 months

Also delivered: a new distributor network, two recurring revenue lines that didn't exist before the engagement, and a purchasing system that measurably improved inventory turnover and cash position.

Team & HR
Rebuilding Staff Retention From the Ground Up
⏱ 6-Month Engagement 👥 100 Employees
HR Development Team Systems Culture

A growing service and installation company was experiencing high turnover, with average employee tenure of just 6 months. The constant churn was creating quality issues, training costs, and operational instability across projects.

We built a structured onboarding program, created a comprehensive employee handbook, implemented quarterly performance reviews, and introduced individual short- and long-term goal-setting frameworks. Manager development coaching was also provided to ensure consistent leadership practices.

3x
Average tenure increase (6mo → 2yr)

Also delivered: a structured onboarding program and employee handbook, quarterly performance reviews, and manager coaching — with a corresponding drop in recruiting spend and rework caused by turnover.

Retail Growth
New Product Lines for a Construction Retail Store
🏗 Construction Retail 📈 $60K+ in Month One
Market Research Product Strategy Marketing

A construction retail store had steady traffic but flat growth. Sales were concentrated in the same core categories year after year, and the business had no structured way to decide which new products were worth shelf space — so it defaulted to carrying none.

We started with market research, not guesswork: analyzing what the store’s existing customers were buying elsewhere, where local demand was underserved, and which adjacent categories fit the store’s buyer profile. From that, we identified the specific product lines with the strongest fit, then backed the launch with a strong marketing implementation strategy — in-store merchandising, targeted promotion to the existing customer base, and a coordinated launch push so the new lines didn’t just sit on the shelf waiting to be noticed.

$60K+
New revenue in the first month

Also delivered: a repeatable framework for evaluating future product additions, so the store can keep expanding its mix on evidence instead of instinct.

Food Service
Vendor Negotiations for a Multi-Location Restaurant Group
🍽 Multi-Location Restaurant 🤝 Vendor Strategy
Vendor Negotiation Cash Flow Menu Margins

A multi-location restaurant group was watching food costs climb while menu prices could only move so far. Supplier terms tied up cash, purchasing was fragmented across locations, and the easy answer — cheaper ingredients — would have traded short-term margin for the quality the brand was built on.

We audited every vendor contract and consolidated purchase volumes across locations to negotiate from a position of scale. Pricing was benchmarked against the market, payment terms were restructured to stop starving day-to-day cash flow, and specifications were held constant throughout — the negotiation was about terms and price, never about substituting lower-quality product.

Delivered: improved cash flow from restructured payment terms, and better margins across menu items — with the exact same ingredient quality on every plate. The group kept its standards and kept more of every dollar.
