The current Hub is a resource library. What I'm building toward is something more useful โ a decision-support platform purpose-built for experienced professionals monetizing expertise. The first tools are in development now.
| 1 |
Expertise Positioning SystemTranslates your corporate background into modern consultant language โ so you can articulate what you do in a way the market actually responds to. |
| 2 |
Second-Act Business Model CanvasMatches your lifestyle constraints โ hours, travel tolerance, tech comfort โ to the right delivery model. Consulting, coaching, or course/cohort/community. The decision made with data, not guesswork. |
| 3 |
Pricing Intelligence PlatformBuilt on real market data with self-employment tax modeling included. No other pricing tool in this space accounts for what a CPA actually needs to know. |
I'm building this in real time and documenting the process in the newsletter. If you want to follow along โ and get early access when tools launch โ subscribing is the best way to stay connected.
