Over the years, we’ve performed projects for client companies and individuals in industries from material distribution, manufacturing, construction, and marketing. Many of them were simple cases of analyzing a need and filling it. Others involved massive efforts performing nearly impossible tasks. Our desire in sharing these cases with you is that you understand that no project is too small, nor too large. Every client is important, as we’ve been in their shoes and know that to them, THEIR business is the most important one. That is how we treat it.
The Bookkeeper Who Stopped the Bleeding
This client had a history of struggling to place a competent bookkeeper — the pattern was that the people he hired ended up embezzling from him. We recruited, interviewed, and helped onboard an excellent candidate, building a checks-and-balances process into the position itself so the bookkeeper no longer had signing authority over accounts. That hire stayed with the company for twenty years.
Forensic Analysis for Litigation
As an established expert in the construction industry, our founder has performed forensic analysis of contracts and project documents many times, assisting litigators in preparing for witness examinations.
Serving on an Attorneys General Task Force

From Worst to Top 5% — Senior Living Turnaround

From Losing Money to $30K/Month — RV Park Turnaround
In twelve months, we turned an RV park from losing money every month into $30,000 per month of pretax net profit.
Project Management at Every Scale
Our teams have managed thousands of construction projects — from small remodels to multi-million-dollar fast-tracked industrial projects, virology labs, and computer clean rooms.
“Yes. Make Money.” — An Eight-Year Turnaround
A division of an iconic Northwest construction company had lost money every year since its inception, eight years before we were engaged to turn it around. During the initial interview, we asked the owner if he had a business plan. His reply: “Yes. Make money.” After four months analyzing the accounting system, estimating process, project management, and labor force, we built a real business plan with 360° feedback — from marketing through to financial performance reporting. Within twelve months, revenue was up 300%, with a 30% pretax net.
A New City in Oman
An existing client asked if we could take on a project in the Middle East: an international consortium needed a $15 billion city — including a seaport, desalinization plant, oil refinery, and 20,000 buildings of mixed use — and needed an organizational outline, including proposed companies and expert employees, in two weeks. We delivered, bringing in firms from Brazil and six U.S. cities, along with a full development management team outline.
Building a Global Marketing Team
A global company needed a marketing team built from the ground up. A year later, we had delivered a team of 15,000 people across 50 nations, complete with communication systems and organizational hierarchy.
A $10 Billion Startup, From the Ground Up
A more recent project involved building a ground-up business plan for a $10 billion technology startup. If launched, it would be the largest business startup in world history — tens of thousands of employees and vendors, with more than 2 million square feet of manufacturing floor space.
Social Media Monster Results
When an author needed help promoting his novels, managing 20 social media platforms, a blog site, hosting a podcast, and doing all of the audio video work was preventing him from doing what he loved, crafting amazing stories. He tried using outside vendors, but they performed poorly. Finally, in desperation, he turned to some colleagues from a past global marketing team and some of his nieces, and within a few weeks they had produced thousands of followers, and were ranked in the top ten in performance for content creators their size in both TikTok and Pinterest. Even more impressive is the video production work and creativity that this team displayed. The author of course is Val Campbell, and you can view two of those videos here!
