I work with small business owners to take the next step. Whatever that step may be. As a team, we review the existing challenges, while working to uncover the ones that may not be so easily recognized. We collaborate, goal set, develop a strategic plan, implement achievement processes and manage resources to stay on track. As no two owners or companies are the same, neither are their challenges, their goals or the plan it takes to get them there. www.OptionalThinking.comServices:- Organization Structure & Process Improvement- Strategic Marketing & Business Growth- Pricing and Product Development- Special Projects

Wish Wood was started by my Grandfather when I was a kid. As he would chop wood for the fireplace, my cousins and I would pick up and carry the chips inside. We would then gather around the fire, picking out the right chip. Then we would use our crayons and write our wishes on them. One by one, we would press our wish into the chip and toss it into the fire. From there, the wishes were released to the universe.Today, I have the pleasure to carry on this tradition by being able to pass it along to other families and friends. Learn more about this cool tradition. www.GiveWishWood.com
