Cultivate Advisors Process
Create a Custom Business Roadmap
Spend time with your advisor to get everything out of your head. Your advisor will help you identify gaps, align on your vision, and set priorities so you know what you should be working on to reach the vision you've laid out for your business.

Hit your goals with regular check-ins from your advisor. Set up recurring meetings with your advisor to review your progress and ensure you have what you need to crush your goals.
Build Repeatable Systems & Processes
Build out tools and systems with your advisor to speed up processes in your business so you can focus more of your time and energy on growing the business.

Creative Sound Boarding
Your advisor is a partner to share ideas with and gain that outside perspective needed to help you make decisions. It's business therapy.
Why Does Our Process Work?
Regardless of where you fall in your entrepreneurial journey, we can partner with you and build a roadmap to help you achieve your vision and propel your business beyond expectations.
Tailored Advice
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to business advising. Sales is not just sales. It means something different depending on your business size and your skill level as an owner. That’s why we spend so much time getting to know your business and how you like to operate. We dig in to develop a 5-year plan based on where you are in the business and where you would like to be.
Flexible Meeting Structure
Based on your needs, your advisor will recommend a plan to help you grow your business at the right speed. Then your advisor will determine a monthly meeting cadence and identify how much of your time is spent meeting versus implementation. Best of all, our clients meet with their advisors virtually, removing any location restrictions.
Advisors Who Can Relate
Our advisors are more than a business growth consultant or coach. They truly become your partner, and they can do that because they have experience running their own business. Because they have been in your shoes – and work with owners in multiple industries – they’ve likely seen similar challenges before. Our advisors bring thousands of hours of advising and past experience that can shortcut your time to results. Our training program puts advisors through hundreds of hours of training to ensure they get the value they deserve. On top of that, each week, our advisors split into mastermind groups to tackle challenging problems – so if they can’t solve it in session, they’ll have resources to figure it out in the next meeting.
Additional Resources for You & Your Team
Access exclusive resources, including AcuMax Assessments for your team, financial forecasting, and employee access to the Cultivate Advisors soft-skill catalog. With these resources available, you and your team can continue developing your core business skills.
