Business Flow Consulting
End-to-end process optimization that removes friction and creates sustainable momentum. We use Total Quality Management principles to help your business operate with clarity and ease.
The Problem We Solve
You're working harder than you should be. Tasks take too long. Information gets lost. Decisions stall. Your team is capable, but the systems aren't supporting them.
Most businesses live with invisible friction for years — until someone maps it, names it, and redesigns the flow.
What Makes This Different
We don't just recommend changes. We walk the floor with you, watch how work actually moves, and co-design solutions your team will actually use.
No generic playbooks. No consulting theater. Just honest diagnosis and practical redesign.
What's Included
Two-week deep dive into where your business gets stuck.
- Process mapping: We shadow your team and document how work actually flows

- Root cause discovery: Why is this happening?
- Friction Report: A visual map showing exactly where work slows down
Side-by-side comparison of how things work now vs. how they should work.

Who This Is For
You've outgrown informal systems. Things that used to "just work" now require coordination and clarity.
Agencies, studios, consultancies where client work flows through multiple hands and handoffs cause delays.
You're the bottleneck. Every decision runs through you because systems don't exist yet.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. We work around your schedule. Most observation happens during normal business hours, and interviews are 30 minutes each.
If you have 3+ people and recurring friction, you’re the right size. Most of our clients are 5-15 person teams.
You can implement it yourself, or continue with our Flow Rebuild service where we execute the plan with you over 6 weeks ($8,000 total, $5,500 after credit). The $2,500 is credited toward that engagement.
