Small Business Consulting in Santa Fe, NM

Small business consulting from Kingster Local helps owners identify what’s holding their business back and build a plan to fix it. We’re good at analyzing all aspects of a business, not just technology: operations, systems, efficiency, supply chain, and more. Then our nerds guide you on making the specific changes that matter for your business.

What we handle

You’re great at what you do, but maybe not so great at running a business. Or maybe you are pretty good at it, but there’s areas where you need help.

You don’t have access to a business incubator, or that one Uncle that had a really successful business that helps you with everything and lends you money.

We never did either. The first time we started a business we learned everything the hard way, because we didn’t have anybody that could answer our questions. Over time, we got really good at most things small business, and now we’re here to help you.

What people worry about

“Consulting sounds expensive and unapproachable.”

It sounds that way to us too… so we started doing it our way! Our nerds are super charming and approachable (and devilishly good looking, if we do say so ourselves…). We’re also affordable, and we have flexible payment plans so we fix your money problems before you have to pay us.

“I’ve hired consultants before and got a binder full of advice I never used.”

We don’t just tell you what to do, our nerds actually help you implement the changes. Hands on and in person.

“My business is too small or too weird for this to apply to me.”

There’s no business too small for this, we do everything from startup forward. We can help you at any level, unless you’re a big, evil corporation. We’ve just never been cut out for corporate life. Yuck.

“I don’t even know what’s wrong, I just know something’s off.”

That’s exactly what the free consultation is for. We’ll figure it out for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a small business consultant actually do?

A good consultant figures out the real problem underneath what you think the problem is, then builds a plan you can actually execute with the team and budget you have. If the plan needs a million dollars you do not have, it is not a good plan.

How much does small business consulting cost?

Rates vary widely across the industry, anywhere from a hundred to several hundred dollars an hour, or a few thousand a month for ongoing work. We start with a free consultation so you know exactly what you are getting into before you spend a dollar.

How do I know if I actually need a business consultant?

Common signs are stalled growth despite working hard, decisions that keep getting put off because there is no time to think them through, and feeling like you are too close to your own business to see what is actually broken.

What's the difference between a business consultant and a business coach?

A coach generally works on your mindset and habits as a leader. A consultant digs into the actual mechanics of your business, like operations, marketing, and systems, and helps fix what is not working. Some overlap exists, but the focus is different.
