I’m Steven Byler and I am a business builder. I specialize in working closely with entrepreneurs and CEOs to unlock the full potential of their growth story. At Open Road Advisory, I’m passionate about coaching and consulting with CEOs and business leaders, providing them with the tools, frameworks, and strategies to navigate dynamic moves in their growth stories. Prior to Open Road, I co-founded GrowthLab Financial Services, which grew from two founders to a leading cloud accounting firm with more than 45 amazing team members.Leveraging the experience growing my firm, I now focus that energy to assist other firm owners. I provide strategic growth consulting to accounting firms and their owners, focusing on managing acquisitions, tech transformations, and organizational change. (For any familiar with EOS, think of Open Road as fractional integrator services to accounting visionaries!)With over 15 years of experience building businesses, my expertise lies in empowering entrepreneurs and firm owners to achieve their growth targets. I am passionate about creating order out of chaos, fostering strategically-focused growth, and solving complex problems. As a life-long learner, I am always eager to engage with peers to share insights and collaborate. And I know the beauty of streamlined business operations.When I am not geeking out to startups or accounting firm growth stories, you can find me in Rhode Island exploring the outdoors with my amazing wife and our four kids. Let’s connect and explore how I can add value to your business journey.
