Advisory Services and Training to Optimize Your Business
Identify Your Opportunities + Get Strategic Guidance + Optimize Your Business
The Myth: Business leaders ALWAYS know what to do next.
Really? That’s impossible.
Are you overburdened with business decisions and lack an experienced sounding board?
Do you need your team to “level up” but don’t have a plan to get them there?
Having trouble prioritizing major moves for your business?
Wondering why your marketing and sales efforts don’t get better results?
Business growth shouldn’t be limited by your personal time and knowledge.

HOW IT WORKS
Be guided and supported when and how you need it most.
1. IDENTIFY YOUR OPPORTUNITIES
Without a clear picture of your starting point AND desired destination, it’s impossible to create a plan.
Use provokebetter‘s Optimization Framework to get business clarity through a combination of assessments and good ol’ fashioned conversation.
You’ll know what high-impact actions to take next for steady momentum.
2. GET STRATEGIC ADVICE
Decision overload often kills progress. Urgent tasks constantly crowd out the truly important actions required to move the company forward.
We advise you on which high-value activities to do next, laying out a clear pathway, and providing the first drafts, templates and tools that ease the work.
3. OPTIMIZE YOUR BUSINESS
Your progress shouldn’t stop when our engagement is over.
That’s why we install the systems and knowledge needed for continuous improvement and business growth.
Your in-house team(s) receive coaching and training while they implement, laying the foundation for future breakthroughs.
OUR MISSION
Make Your Work Serve Your Life
I used to feel trapped by the business I built. Not anymore.
You’d think that growing up in a family-owned business would teach you all the best practices. It didn’t for me.
You’d imagine that starting your own company would give you more control over your schedule. Instead, maybe you are wearing so many hats that you have less time. I did.
Maybe you are like me, and think that because you are good at providing a service, you’ll be great at running a service-based business. Well, I wasn’t…. at first.
It wasn’t until I learned how to systematically optimize my business for time and revenue that everything changed. And that’s why I want to help you.
Now, I have more revenue AND more time to enjoy it. In 2023, I:
- Took home six figures
- Went on two international family vacations
- Banked six months of operating expenses for a rainy day
- Donated over 100 hours of service in my community
- and did it all while working about 30 hours a week
You can, too!
When you apply our “cut to the chase” materials and targeted advice, your small business will give you more time for the activities and people you love.

TESTIMONIALS
These clients used our frameworks to power their business growth.
– Academy Member –
Before meeting Whitney, my business was riding the struggle bus.
Through applying what I learned in the Academy, I had a 40% growth in my profit over the last 12 months.
I now have a life I am proud of, not just a business that I love.

I have such a clear path forward that I didn’t have before.
My initial offer can now lead into a recurring revenue scenario, and I’m really excited about that.
