General business consulting focuses on mindset, strategy, and goal-setting. Profit Acceleration is a financial diagnostic process. We go directly into your numbers to find the specific places where profit is being lost, calculate the dollar impact of each gap, and build a corrective action plan you can implement right away. The work is precise, measurable, and tied to your actual financial performance, not general principles.
I work with women who own businesses in professional services, wellness, healthcare, and consulting. My clients are not startups. They are established owners who are generating revenue but are not keeping enough of it. If you have been in business for at least one year, have a consistent revenue coming in, and a sense that your bottom line should look better than it does, you are likely a strong fit.
Most clients identify their first profit opportunities within the first session. The Profit Acceleration process is designed to surface immediate, actionable findings rather than produce a lengthy report you file away. Implementation timelines vary by client, but the goal is always to put corrections in motion quickly so the financial impact begins as soon as possible. We measure results by what actually changes in your numbers.
No. Many clients come to me before they are ready and that is exactly the right time. Loan readiness is something we build together. I help you understand what lenders are actually evaluating, how to structure your financials for the strongest possible presentation, and which lending products make sense for your stage of growth. Starting early means you are positioned to move quickly when an opportunity arises rather than scrambling to prepare.
Come prepared to talk about your current revenue, your biggest financial frustration, and what you believe is holding your profit back. You do not need to bring documents to the first session. That conversation gives me enough to identify where we should focus and whether the work is a strong fit. If you want to come more prepared, having a general sense of your monthly revenue and your top three expenses is helpful.




Shawnita is a very knowledgeable, experienced and compassionate person that has used her years of experience to help business owners, especially those in private practice. If you are needing help with your numbers and figuring out YOUR path to success, then you should definitely reach out to Shawnita. You will not regret it!
