I partner with small business owners who are eager to grow but stuck in the weeds–stretched thin, buried in daily tasks, and unsure where to start.  


For those determined to make a change, we implement a custom system from a proven framework that eliminates uncertainty, focuses effort, tracks what matters and drives real growth.  

We don't just get stuff done -- we create better work.

WORK WITH ME

6 effects on a businesses without a performance system.

How we secure your growth potential:

1) Clarity: Strategic Direction

First, we clearly define and document objectives alongside the structures and processes that will get you there. Using simple frameworks, we’ll document and organize your ideas into a focused and actionable strategy. Without this clarity, we risk reacting to daily demands instead of proactively leading our business with intention.

2) Calendar: Strategic Plan

Next, we implement a four-part strategic calendar that drives your effort toward your objectives all year. There are specific things you need to be thinking about at the right times throughout the year to stay on track, stay productive, and make the best use of your time and resources. To support this, we’ll implement a custom calendar designed to keep you focused and drive progress toward your business goals.

3) Conversation: Strategic Thinking


Finally, and most importantly, we establish strategic conversations. The worst thinking we do is alone in our heads, while the best thinking happens out loud with a trusted strategic partner. In this phase, we define the type and frequency of strategic discussions you need to support your focus, decision-making, and accountability—ensuring you are ready to be the best leader you can be for the work that truly matters.

WORK WITH ME

fron•tier

noun. The edge of understanding and achievement. 

aka... "So, what do we do next?"

You see where you want to go and set objectives in that direction while navigating the day-today grind, knocking out endless behind the scenes tasks, and addressing the “urgent” needs of everyone around you.

It takes a high degree of focus to weave these strands into a smooth operation that thrives. This type of frontier is not for everyone. You know that. You started because you know it is thrilling and meaningful to create something of value, not because it would be easy.

For 15+ years, I thrive when I partner with people that take on "frontier" level work and ambitions. I’ve helped them transform chaos into clarity, freeing them up to focus on what matters most.

Meet Jeremy Rivers


For the last 15+ years I've been a team leader, operator, strategist and "the other guy".  I like being "the other guy". A role where I get to partner with someone with high-potential, setting them up for high-peformance and success. It's how I'm designed, wired, and where I thrive. Do you have "the other guy" in your line up? 

I've experienced firsthand the stress and pressures of not having enough time and money, juggling endless responsibilities, ambitious objectives, and teams that rely on you. We could probably swap some fun stories.

My services address these tensions by focusing on two key areas: operational effectiveness and building strong team leadership.  

Bottom line... I discover, provoke, support, align and empower the God-given potential in people and ideas. Who do you have keeping you accountable to what you're capable of? 

Below you can read more about my story and experiences.

MY STORY

I can confidently say Jeremy is one of the most insightful and impactful individuals I’ve ever worked with. What truly sets Jeremy apart is his ability to operate at both the 30,000-foot view and in the trenches. His knack for connecting dots others might miss, combined with his gift for asking insightful questions, is nothing short of a superpower.

Since working alongside Jeremy for nearly a decade as a soloprenuer, my business has grown substantially, thanks to partnering with his strategic insights and practical solutions that inspire and drive meaningful change. His experience, track record of success, and deep relational approach make him both relatable and highly effective.

Over the years, Jeremy has been my boss, my coach, and my friend. He's the real deal. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Not only will Jeremy help you take your operational effectiveness to new heights, but you will find that his guidance enables you to see that you are capable of so much more than you thought. You can't put a price tag on that.

By prioritizing relationships, I saw a renewed sense of purpose and fulfillment in my leadership. Jeremy’s influence has truly brought heart into the fabric of our organization."

Jeremy is a right Good Will Hunting when it comes to organizational leadership!  His ability and expertise have helped me grow as a professional and seek success beyond what I thought possible for myself.  Under his coaching, I began to see the potential I truly had, and it was Jeremy who had pulled that out of me.  My friends and family ask how I’m able to do the things I’m now doing, and I credit Jeremy with unlocking that path forward for me.  He took what I had, helped me see how to be better — exemplified it even — and gave me the tools to make it happen for myself.  I cannot recommend enough working with Jeremy to maximize your professional and personal advancement!
