How it works
Three steps to getting real support
01
Free intro call
We spend 30–45 minutes together. You share what's going on in your business, the wins, the headaches, the "I don't even know where to start" stuff. No pitch, no pressure.
02
Build your plan
Together, we map out a 6–12 month plan that's specific to your business. Operations, marketing, team, AI tools, we focus on what actually moves the needle for you.
03
Work together
Weekly or bi-weekly sessions. Sometimes we make something, a process, a strategy, a content plan. Sometimes we just think through a decision together. Either way, you leave with clarity.

I've been where you are.
Donavan Robinson - Small Business Guide, Entrepreneur, Speaker.
I'm not a consultant who studied businesses from the outside. I've owned and operated them.
Over the past 20+ years, I've run a marketing agency, operated a live music venue for a decade, owned and run restaurants, launched the first retail store in Winnipeg dedicated to local gift brands, and grown a popular pizza restaurant brand. Today, I work with teams and leaders to bring play into the workplace through Pop CoLab.
I know what it feels like when cash flow is tight, when your team isn't clicking, when your marketing feels like shouting into a void, because I've lived all of it, more than once.
What I've learned is that the difference between businesses that survive and the ones that actually thrive usually comes down to one thing: having someone in your corner who asks the right questions.
That's what I want to be for you.
