I blast through barriers with independent business owners, streamlining their growth so they can move faster and easier. I work with clients to create structures and systems that cause a shift from overwhelm to profit, from scrambling to strategy. The work is unorthodox and the results are dramatic. Clients who work with me consistently report their highest income levels to date.

My background, providing cutting-edge consulting to Fortune 500 companies, translates into keen insights for business development, strategy, organization, marketing, branding and growth.

If you have a business you want to grow or an idea for a business you want to start, I'd love to hear from you. I am not a cookie cutter consultant, nor a feel-good coach. I combine cultural anthropology, brain studies and business and my commitment is that my clients produce tangible results. I work with clients in person or by phone (I have local and out-of-town clients). [less]

  To know Karrie is to both adore and marvel at her intelligence, x-ray insights, "get 'er done" efficiency and speed-of-light strategy shaping with clients. I've been amazed at how she can cut to the heart of things so quickly. Ask Karrie to assess a situation or help you get from point A to point B in your business and prepare to find yourself "blasting through barriers" as promised! Thanks, Karrie!    [less]

  Karrie: Thanks for sharing your many gifts. The work we accomplished during our 4-session package has been instrumental in discovering new clarity and momentum and most of all uncovering a new level of love for music. It's been my experience that it's impactful, invisible work that you do, Karrie, with very definite results. Looking forward to our future collaborations. Until then, know that I am deeply grateful for our work together so far. Thank you, Karrie.    [less]

  Posted Mon, 14 May 2007 by Karrie Kohlhaas

It’s called “biznik” and if you are looking for networking events where people actually want to know who you are, not just whether you are a good client for them, biznik is a great alternative to [...]

  Posted Thu, 12 Apr 2007 by Karrie Kohlhaas

  Kurt Vonnegut died lastnight. He was a great example of someone doing his own thing and being successful with all of his quirks and eccentricities. Vonnegut found a style he could own because it was genuine and a true reflection of his personality. If you do your thing like everyone else does it, you’ll [...]

• Scared of your Customers?

  Posted Sat, 10 Mar 2007 by Karrie Kohlhaas

  Many business owners are afraid of offending their cell phone-wielding customers by posting a “no cell phone policy” in their place of business. They don’t consider that these customers are actually hurting—not helping—business. Customers who will slow your checkout line, damage company moral by treating your employees badly and annoy your other customers—even sending [...]
