Hire the Best Business Consultants
in the United States

A high calibre PMP-certified professional with 20 years of experience in project management, sales, operations, product development and marketing, serving clients as a consultant or fractional resource.

You do not need another task-based virtual assistant, nor do you need a tech consultant pushing hype from an ivory tower. You need a seasoned, battle-tested operator who will roll up their sleeves, get your poop in a group, and give you the total operational clarity you need to actually lead your company with modern infrastructure. I am Matt. Over the last 20 years, I have bootstrapped, scaled, and optimized healthy, highly profitable businesses up to $10MM in revenue, managing hundreds of employees across multiple states. I have lived in the operational trenches. I do not just consult. I dig in, do the heavy lifting with you, and get shit done. I know firsthand that great companies are built on great people and strong team culture. But over the last 3 years, I have transformed my own businesses by pairing that human-first leadership with cutting-edge AI and practical automations. I use modern technology to eliminate friction, bring order to back-office chaos, and give owners crystal-clear visibility into their entire operation. And to do the things that are not getting done but should be. My mission is to give business owners total clarity and purpose. I construct the modern infrastructure that lets your team execute at a high level, freeing you up to actually lead the company. Here is what I bring to your leadership table: * Operational Clarity & Getting Shit Done: When your business feels chaotic or stuck, I bring order. I help business owners cut through the noise, untangle complex issues, organize messy processes, and gain absolute control so they can scale with confidence. * People, Team & Culture First: Tools and systems fail if your people do not buy in. Having managed hundreds of employees, I build accountability structures and team frameworks that foster high performance, clear communication, and pride in execution. * Modern AI & Smart Automation Execution: I bring 20 years of battle-tested business wisdom into the modern era. Over the last 3 years, I have personally built hands-on automated systems that boost sales conversions, automate follow-up, optimize CRMs, power custom HR learning management systems (LMS), and generate real-time executive dashboards. * Scaling Operations & Fractional Leadership (1 to 3): Whether stepping in as an Acting CEO or Fractional COO, I specialize in taking messy growth and professionalizing it. I establish clear accountability metrics, stabilize cash flow, handle compliance, and fix operational bottlenecks. * Startups (0 to 1): I help bootstrapped founders identify core goals, build robust business plans, design go-to-market strategies, and construct the initial operating frameworks required to launch cleanly. * Platform-Agnostic Systems & SOPs: Whether your team runs on Google Workspace, Slack, HubSpot, ADP, Trello, Asana, Monday, or EOS/Traction, I adapt to your stack. I build practical automated workflows and clear, easy-to-follow SOPs so your team actually executes them. To be radically transparent: I am a C+ at building complex manual pivot tables, but I am an A at rolling up my sleeves, organizing messy businesses, and establishing the operational clarity that stops leadership drag. If you are ready to transition your business from chaotic survival to a clear, highly controlled, and profitable growth engine, let us set up a 30-minute call to see if we are a fit. Matt from PA
