FAQs. tl,dr.

“Le Chéile.” (pronounced – “leh shy-il”).
It's a Gaelic phrase that has no English language equivalent, but the feeling is universal. Literally, it means “together”.
-
We have several unique offerings we’ve perfected with our clients for proven success.
From [affordable] DIY visual reporting tools, interactive & custom financial tools, and hands-on strategic and consulting, we have something for all service-based businesses/entrepreneurs scaling toward or beyond 1M.
We also offer bookkeeping support and one-off projects. Simply get in touch, and we’ll navigate it together!

We support all creative entrepreneurs but our specific niche is boutique creative agency founders.
Our retained consulting clients are most often minority founders and tend to make 450K-2M annually with a mix of 2-20 subcontractors and employees.
-
Our consulting engagements begin with six months but most often clients continue indefinitely.
Within the first month, we gather your data — revenue and expenses — and my team sifts through all the numbers. Then, we build a custom cash flow tool for your business which gives you visibility into your finances (because who consistently checks their Quickbooks?)
With your data at our fingertips, we develop a roadmap to reach your goals. We create a clear and actionable plan to scale sustainably by breaking down your operational and profit goals.
Once we’ve set a path within our first month, we take the steps together. Whether your goal is to scale your business, determine how much to pay your team, or determining rates that will bring you profit, we’ll create a data-backed system to get you there.

By the numbers, our clients have seen 427% quarterly profit growth, 257% profit margin increase, and 45% revenue growth.
93% of our consulting clients see a 2X in profit within our first six months together.
They’ve also gained the confidence to act as CEO, say no to projects for the sake of money, pay themselves fairly with profit-sharing systems and bonus structures, and start charging profitable and competitive rates.
