Business Consulting

John Cochran has been consulting friends with their own businesses for many years.  "I am addicted to the small business ride and enjoy helping people improve and thrive in their own operations".  Over the past 30 years I have owned and operated several successful businesses in the outdoor industry focused on fly fishing.  I have managed and directed high volume seasonal operations most of my life.  I have also worked in the construction industry, restaurant industry, as well as risk management and loss control focused on outdoor businesses.  From 2012-2020 I was the GM of a highly successful, large outfitting business in Vail, Colorado.  I bring a wide berth of knowledge and experience to the table that when applied will make any business run better and perform to expectations. Think of my business consulting services as your fractional CEO, COO, CMO, HR, CTO, all rolled into one at a fraction of the cost.  Successful businesses are built with strong leadership and access to knowledge.  That is what I offer to your business with my consulting services.

I will only work with one company at a time in a specific market due to the highly competitive nature of the small business environment.  If I'm working with you and your company, we will identify your competitors and I will be on your team.   I maintain a very strict privacy policy. I will work hard with integrity and honesty.   I will always be transparent and fair. *Must maintain a minimum of 8 hours per month or an annual contract.
