Founder, The Global Small Business Collaborative
For over 40 years, I’ve lived and breathed the world of sales. I’ve worked through market crashes, pivots, technology shifts, and everything in between—and I’ve helped build businesses from the ground up, often one hard-earned sale at a time.But somewhere along the way, I started noticing a shift. Small business owners—the backbone of every community I’ve ever loved—were falling behind. Not because they lacked talent or grit, but because the game had changed.
Technology moved fast. Customers became harder to reach. And most business tools out there? They weren’t built for real people running real shops.
So, I decided to do something about it.I created The Global Small Business Collaborative as a place where store owners, service pros, and independent entrepreneurs could come together—not for fluff, not for likes, but to share what’s actually working. I wanted to build a space where you didn’t feel alone, overwhelmed, or left out of the modern economy. Just supported, heard, and equipped to grow.
Then we built Bella, our 24/7 voice assistant that answers every call you miss and follows up so you don’t lose another sale while you’re helping a customer—or taking a well-earned break.And finally, we created Eli, your behind-the-scenes AI marketing partner. Eli writes your emails, builds your campaigns, analyzes what’s working—and makes marketing one less thing on your plate.I’m not here to sell hype. I’m here because I know what it’s like to wear every hat and still feel like you’re falling behind. If you’ve ever felt like you could do more if only you had the right help, then what we’ve built is for you.
This isn’t about staying busy. It’s about building smarter. And we’d be honored to do it with you.
The Global Small Business Collaborative is an online membership community for boutique and specialty store owners who are tired of doing it all alone—and ready to grow smarter.
