You Will Wish You Hired Me Sooner!
"Nothing beats big league experience." - Darlene Ziebell
Defying the Odds: My Journey to Success
The Big Leagues are made up of small businesses that reach 7 figures or more in annual sales per year. There are more than 31 Million small businesses in the USA. Here's how many make it to the top.
- Less than 10% of them ever reach 7 figures
- Less than 4% of women-owned businesses reach 7 figures
- Less than 1% of all small businesses reach 8 figures
I reached the top four times in my career. Today, I share with you how my experience stands out in a crowded market of business mentors and why my expertise is valued at over $56 million.
Check out my testimonials.
Overcoming the Odds:
85% of all startups in the USA fail by their fifth year in business.
What are the top reasons so many small businesses fail?
- Lack of capital
- Poor management team
- A business model that targets every and any customer
- Inadequate marketing plan
- Unable to differentiate from the competition
I have personally experienced each of these challenges and through determination and resilience I never gave up learning how to succeed.
There is no need for you to struggle when I share the planning methods that helps you navigate the many challenges all businesses face.
Why not learn from someone who has been in your shoes?
Beating the Competition
I learned early in my career how to build a business with little or no outside funding. I began with a small scale and plan to reach my next level within two years. Typically to 7 figures or more. I learned how to:
- Begin with a small target audience
- Surround myself with the strongest team of people
- Learn which management skills are required for small business success
- Build a business model with a targeted marketing plan
- Then sell, build and grow
I share with my clients how to start local, but think global. I've reached the odds to 7 figures per year in sales in less than two years of a new strategic plan. Are you willing to spend two years to make your business grow beyond your biggest dreams?

My Experience is Valued at $56M
People often ask me why my experience is measured at so much value. Basically its because I started from the bottom, learning the hard way.
I have more than 30 years of business experience owning my own companies. During that time, one of my businesses, a management consulting firm, grew to more than 8 figures per year. Over the life of that one company, sales measured over $40M.
By advising more than 20% of the Fortune -1000, growing my own businesses and advising hundreds of other small business owners, I developed techniques that major corporations use combined with mentoring small and mid-size business owners on how to use these same techniques but at a much lower investment.
All of the mistakes I made along the way, turned into valuable lessons helping you reach your goals.
