Minnesota Lakes Country!
Established 2020 -- Count on Our Experience
After 37 years of crisscrossing the U.S. serving clients virtually everywhere, Tom decided to focus right here in Lakes Country. Tom is active with the Brainerd Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce, Journey North Church, the Salvation Army, the YMCA, and other important members of our business scene.
Family-held and Closely-held Clients Benefit Most
In order to thrive here in Lakes Country, our little firm "CHUNK" needs to flex to serve a wide variety of clients. Our market focus locally is any family-held, or closely-held business with revenues in excess of $5,000,000. We also network with the many accounting, legal, banking, insurance, and other professional services firms in this community. Together, we can do more.
Buy a Fraction of My Time Annually to Keep Your Fixed Expenses Down
I can be bought. Well, no, not that way. I sell fractional parts of my time for local businesses. If you need the resources of a larger company, but do not want that additional fixed expenses, rent me. I serve some clients for just a certain time of the year. For others, a certain number of days/week. My scope of work for you will always be clearly defined, our chemistry and rapport will always be inspiring, and fees are negotiable. See "My Consulting Services" on this website.
Buy Local, Build Local, Thrive Local, Ya Sure
We heartily support the efforts of BLAEDC and our local Chamber. We support our local newspaper, the Brainerd Dispatch. We give generously to organizations like The Journey North Church, our local area high school sports programs, and even local Girl Scouts. We've been known to Run the Lakes more than once and to ride the Paul Bunyan Trail every morning, weather permitting. Wanna' ride?
