Stevan Browning
resident, CEO, Business Advisor
As a retired executive with years of experience leading both public and private companies, I now focus on helping small and mid-sized businesses solve problems, grow stronger, and lead with more clarity. I work directly with business owners and leaders to share what I’ve learned and help them move forward with confidence.
My advice is based on lived experience, not merely theory. I work with heart and purpose. I offer practical solutions that meet you where you are—I am a dedicated partner who genuinely cares about your success.

Backed by years of real-world experience, I offer practical strategies—not just theories. I am not just an academic advisor—I am a business-savvy, purpose-driven advisors and coach who guide you through the complex challenges of business management.
My mission is simple—to be the trusted partner that propels your business forward.
I provide comprehensive services tailored to the unique needs of small and mid-sized businesses. My offerings include marketing, business development, management, financial, and leadership coaching, ensuring you receive well-rounded support to develop, grow, and sustain your business.
Advice from an experienced advisor can be a valuable investment for business owners or leaders seeking to enhance their skills, overcome challenges, or achieve specific objectives. Our approach is tailored to your needs, and we encourage you to contact us for a consultation to explore how we can support your journey.
I work exclusively through virtual work sessions.
Working virtually has various benefits, including time savings, cost reduction, increased safety, efficiency, and faster task completion. Moreover, it has opened new avenues for collaboration, enabling us to work closely with entrepreneurs and small business owners with broadband internet connections from anywhere. This fosters a sense of a more extensive professional network, increased efficiency, and quicker task completion.
Discovery
I ask deep, thought-provoking, and sometimes uncomfortable questions to uncover what drives or hinders your business. This discovery process gives us an honest understanding of your operations, challenges, and opportunities. The goal is straightforward: to get to the heart of your business so we can chart a more informed path forward.
Recommendation
Based on what I uncover, we’ll deliver clear, practical, and tailored solutions. If your business grows rapidly, I’ll propose strategies to manage and contain that growth without losing control. I’ll introduce systems and structure to stabilize and streamline operations if internal practices break down. And if you're stagnant, I’ll outline a plan to reignite growth—intentionally and sustainably. Every recommendation is designed to be actionable and aligned with your core objectives.
Guidance & Expertise
You’re doing a lot right, but you don’t have to do it alone. Many business leaders don’t have the time to manage every strategic, operational, financial, or marketing decision. That’s where I come in. I provide ongoing support so you can focus on leading, knowing you have expert backup when it counts. Our role is to help you make better decisions, stay grounded, and avoid overwhelm throughout the consultation and beyond.
