Build a business that lasts.

We help founders and operators of $5M–$80M companies tighten the operating model, sharpen the strategy, and earn the next decade of growth. No frameworks. No slide ceremonies. Real work.

What we offer

Three services. Zero fluff.

Built around what actually moves the needle for owner-led companies — and around what we've personally done before, not what a deck told us to recommend.

Strategy sprints

A four-week engagement to lock down the next 12 months — growth bets, capital plan, org shape. Output is a 20-page operator's plan you'll actually use.

Operating fix-it

When the machine is breaking. We embed for 8–12 weeks, find what's actually broken (rarely what you think), and rebuild the process & cadence to ship reliably.

Founder advisory

A monthly retainer for owners and CEOs. One senior partner, two structured calls a month, unlimited async. We've held this seat for nine clients past three years.

How we're different

Operators, not analysts.

Every partner has run a P&L. We don't think pattern-matching from an MBA program is consulting. We think doing the work — and being there when it doesn't go to plan — is consulting.

  • · Partner-led at every stage. No "creative director who never touches your work."
  • · Tight, weekly cadence. Monday standup, Friday demo, Slack between.
  • · 70% of our work is repeat or referred. That's the metric we watch.

Portrait of Renée Boucher, CEO of Northbrook Industrial

"We'd worked with two of the big consulting firms before. Modern Business was a different species — they ran toward the hard problems instead of away from them. Eight weeks in we'd already changed how we forecast revenue, and that change is still paying off."
