We’re all about helping entrepreneurs take action, build confidence, and turn ideas into reality.

Business Basics is all about helping small businesses thrive—whether you’re just getting started, growing, or adapting to new challenges. From home-based hustles to main street staples, I love supporting entrepreneurs with real advice, practical strategies, and a no-nonsense approach to success. My goal is to make things easier, help you find the right path, and give you the tools to turn ideas into reality. Whatever stage you’re at, I’m here to help you move forward with confidence!

At the end of the day, it's all about helping small businesses thrive. I want entrepreneurs to feel confident, supported, and ready to take action—because when small businesses succeed, communities grow, opportunities open up, and dreams turn into reality.

What types of businesses do you work with?

We support a diverse range of businesses—from home-based startups and solo entrepreneurs to retail shops, service providers, and creative ventures. If you just have an idea, are looking to start or are a seasoned entrepreneur - we are here to help.

What's your experience as a business owner?

I’ve been in the trenches of entrepreneurship, building businesses from the ground up and figuring things out the hard way—just like you. I know the challenges of starting small, working with limited resources, and navigating the ups and downs of running a business. That’s why my coaching is straight-up, practical, and built on real experience—not just theories.

I’ve worked with Small Business Enterprise Centres, Community Futures offices, Business Improvement Associations, and nonprofit organizations to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into thriving businesses. Beyond advising, I’ve owned multiple companies, launched a global e-commerce business back when online selling was brand new, and traveled internationally as a speaker, trainer, and writer.

Bottom line? I don’t just talk about business—I’ve lived it. And I’m here to help you do the same, in a way that works for you

Is coaching worth the investment?

Good coaching isn’t just about advice; it’s about having someone who helps you think strategically, avoid costly mistakes, and move forward with confidence. It saves you from endless trial and error, gives you personalized guidance, and keeps you accountable so you actually implement the right steps—not just dream about them.

For bootstrapping entrepreneurs, every dollar counts. That’s why the right coach should cut through the fluff, focus on what works for YOUR business, and make sure you’re using your time, energy, and resources wisely. It’s not just an expense—it’s an investment that can help you grow faster, smarter, and with fewer headaches.
