Our Approach
We partner with family and small businesses to turn strategic goals into actionable plans. Each semester, from October to December and February to April, teams of 5 to 8 student consultants deliver tailored solutions across strategy, operations, marketing, and finance.
​
Every project is built around your unique business needs; we never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Our goal is simple: empower you to do more with limited bandwidth. Whether you're tackling a new initiative outside your core expertise or need dedicated research and analysis on a critical decision, we provide the support and strategic thinking to achieve your business objectives.
Project Structure
Projects run for about 10 weeks during fall and spring semesters, with each consultant dedicating 3 to 5 hours per week to your project. We maintain regular communication throughout the semester whether through email updates or meeting, we adapt to your preferences and project needs. Midway through the semester we present our initial findings to gather your feedback to confirm we are on the right track. The semester concludes with a presentation and a comprehensive deliverables.
