Your Partner in Building a Business That Works for You

I’m Chat, and I’m glad you’re here

You’re Not Alone in the Journey of Scaling Your Business

The main purpose of my business consulting/ coaching practice is stated in the name of my business, to help small businesses “Accelerate Profits Now!” As fellow business owners, we all know this is the bottom line, literally and figuratively, for our businesses. We don’t have time for moral victories, we don’t need participation trophies, we must have REAL WINS as measured in MORE NET PROFITS!

Guiding Business Owners with Real-World Experience

Bottom line, I get it! I grew up in a family-run small business, a general store. As a child growing up in London, I watched my mom and dad work hard every day for 10 years to sustain their business, through good times and bad. Over the decades, I’ve started several businesses myself. My wife has built her own successful business. And 3 of our kids have started their own “side hustles.” It’s just in our blood!

And I’ve been in the trenches – with start-ups, established businesses, and multinational firms. For 30+ years, I’ve helped business owners just like you break through barriers, find solutions, and accelerate profits. I don’t do cookie-cutter plans! I offer hands-on, personalized guidance built around what matters to you.

Then

R-L, dad, mom and grandad, me, aged 5 with my hand puppet, and my brother, doing his best Homer Simpson impersonation (“D’oh!”) long before Homer ever existed; and in the background, our family-run small business.

Now

The same spot, 31 Station Road, Harlesden, more than a few decades later – our store is now a Portuguese restaurant! We lived in the apartment above the store, a common arrangement in London at that time.
