About Essent Consulting

Essent Consulting assists entrepreneurs to identify and distill what sparks their entrepreneurial drive, and teach them how to transform that spark into a tool for growth.

Many times entrepreneurs get saddled down by the ‘work’ of running a business, and lose sight of the passion that brought them to create it.  Essent Consulting helps figure out how to address the ‘work’ efficiently, while re-capturing and harnessing the passion that started the company.

We love entrepreneurs, and are adept at addressing the operational concerns of small business such as how to find the right tools, the right people, and creating a plan to achieve growth efficiently and effectively.

The website is a resource for entrepreneurs and a blog to discuss 4 favorite topics:

1) Working with entrepreneurs is  often about focusing them on the right path or helping them shift gears from their primary focus to at their self and business through another point of view.  Big picture people need to look at the metrics and details sometimes, and vice versa.

2) Finding and honing strengths and understanding personal and professional limits and obstacles.  Who are you and who do you need to bring aboard? Who do you need to banish?

3) Learning new communication and management styles to suit all occasions – and instilling humor in your work

4) It’s about exploration, and innovation: Relentlessly pursuing how to be better, faster, stronger, more profitable — but in a sustainable way that doesn’t exhaust your/our resources.
