We work exclusively with the "Complexity Ceiling" ($1M - $50M) where the Founder has become the bottleneck. Other scenarios may also apply as we work solving and optimizing the “high complexity” space.

ESM offers the intellectual capital of a senior executive immediately, without the six-figure burden or equity cost of a permanent hire to maintain forward flexibility.

We combine a thoughtful, intrapreneurial turned entrepreneur perspective through 30 plus years of real life founder owner situations with tactical experience to achieve reliable results. It’s not just what we do—it’s how we do it that sets us apart.

You hire the Principal, you get the Principal. We deliberately cap our active client roster to ensure Ed Wong is personally driving the architecture of your business. We do not leverage junior associates for high-stakes strategy.

Transformation is not an overnight event, but impact should be immediate. We structure engagements in 90-Day Sprints. You will feel a shift in operational cadence within the first 30 days, with structural implementation typically complete by Month 6.

Our goal is obsolescence. We build the systems and train your internal leaders to run them.

We consider an engagement successful when you no longer need us daily, transitioning often to a quarterly advisory retainer cadence.

You can reach us anytime via our contact page or email. We aim to respond quickly—usually within one business day.

We offer Fractional Advisory and Retainer Based that is flexible pricing based on engagement & project type and complexity. This approach is advantageous to access to the full breathe experience and perspective without the full time commitment, all while being cost effective to be targeted to the situation. After an initial conversation, we’ll provide a transparent quote with no hidden costs.

Collaborative, honest, and straight forward. We have seen all or most of it over the last 30 years from both sides of the ledger, the paths and journeys to success through the ups and downs. We're here to guide the process, bring ideas to the table, and keep things moving.
